Today its mostly been sonic youth and the fall right now

Yeaaahh, The Fall.

Please, please, please... I can't emphasize this enough... Please! Do yourself a favor and check out The Weakerthans and The Spill Canvas. They are too good for you to not hear.

I haven't listened to it in a couple days, but parts of Kaada/Patton's [i]Romances[/i] is stuck in my head...

That's good enough qualification for "diggin' it" status in my book.

Cursive will just not leave me.

Holy crap this band has made an impression with me. Seriously, try and find a better genre band than Cursive.

"White People" by Handsome Boy Modeling School. I bought it yesterday, and listened to it twice that night.

You seem to be raving about a lot.

I'll download it.

Try "A Day in the Life" Tangy; I managed to like it despite not being a big fan of rap or hip-hop. Features Cedric Bixler doing his best Macy Gray impression, I think.

...but I like Hip Hop.

Then you'll like HBSM even more, methinks!

A lot of it has no rapping at all! It's a very odd album, but it really confirms my belief that Dan the Automator and Prince Paul can guide anyone into cutting a good record. They've got all these unlikely groupings of people, and they manage to not only make them work together, but help them to do some of their best work in any context.

I back this up - White People is probably 2004's greatest record.

These days I've been on the Pixies bandwagon

[QUOTE=Zappa]At The Drive-In are awful, Wide.

You lose.[/QUOTE]

That was hilarious :lol: x 10

Alt/Indie would be so boring without YDload

...and without you laughing at him all the time :lol:

Hey, I could be a jerk who sequesters himself in the R&M all the time in order to be superior to everyone (except Badmoon), but I choose to come here and learn about bands I've never heard of! I don't have to expound my musical ignorance in what I thought was a fairly open-minded subforum, but I do in order to learn!

And we love and respect you for it, Ian.

YDload, your the smartest retard I've ever come across.

This is damaging to my self-esteem. I have to go make fun of noobs in R&M now. I can't take the hideous paradox of being revered in some forums and patronized in others! *tries to slit wrists, but flood of emo tears causes razor to rust*

I like your palm-tree though

[QUOTE=Tangy zizzle]You seem to be raving about a lot.

I better watch it. If I rave enough, I'll start to find a way to mention it in EVERY single thread I post in. At that point I will morph into OrbDragon.

New Artist and Sounds.....
 

Check this guy out. He's also giving away a free, autographed Billy Sheehan guitar.

Check out "Do You Miss Me"!

I just discovered The Notorious Byrd Brothers and I have been listening to it just about nonstop. It's a psychedelic gem.

Can-Tago Mago
Arcade Fire-Funeral
Frankenixon-Amourphous--these guys remind me alot of Explosions in the Sky meets PJ Harvey. Impasse is a good song by them.

w00000000000000000t!

ByeByeBeutiful, Are you liking [I]Tago Mago[/I]?

These guys are pretty **** good, they're from the Des Moines area so I've seen them in concert twice in the 3 month span I've been here...

You're so cool. It seems that every time someone mentions a band I've never heard of, you always know who they are.

This place actually isn't all that open minded anymore :upset:.

I just finally got [I]From a Basement on the Hill[/I] FINALLY.

I will be digging it as soon as I go and get my headphones.

PS: I got glasses today ... w00t!

what kind of question is that, how can anyone who takes the time to buy that album not like it, its essential.
