Boards of Canada - [I]Music Has the Right to Children[/I]

This album is insanely good. I reckon that it's the best album of '98.

A Little Bit of Somethin' is the name, I believe.

Any thoughts on the new Madlib/Kweli, Jon?

JonM 01-07-2007 02:11 PM

I haven't heard it. I'm skeptical. Those are both artists that I think are only as good as their collaborators. But I certainly plan on listening at some point.

Kyle 01-07-2007 02:16 PM

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan;13975536]Any thoughts on the new Madlib/Kweli[/QUOTE]I think it's tight.

What's the deal with the download? I get a 404 error.

This guy is pretty cool, I listened to [I]Precis[/I] the other day.

I enjoyed it, but it reminded me of a lot of other records I have that I'd rather listen to. Four Tet, The Books, Caribou/Manitoba, you know.

Arrows mean how much an artist has gained or dropped in play.

If you dig Cursive I would recommend Archers of Loaf and Superchunk.

I bought the Pearls Before Swine album yesterday, [I]Balaklava[/I]. It's ok, 60's psychedelic folk stuff. There's a cover of Leonard Cohen's "Suzanne," pretty decent. I need to hunker down with it and a pair of earphones, though.
