Hence your distaste for the last few Flaming Lips albums? Man I wish that guitarist didn't disappear :(

I'd say that the Fiery Furnaces experimentation brings them above your typical sugary indie pop.

Today:
The Police - [i]Synchronicity[/i]

Tuxedomoon. A new wave band that deserves so much more credit than they get. So great. It's a shame how few people actually know them.

the early november - [I]the mother, the mechanic and the path[/I]
converge - [I]you fail me[/I]

[url]www.myspace.com/dimmerband[/url] (ooooh yes.)

The Bronx - [I]The Bronx[/I] (II) (it has come out, it has been purchased)
Red Eyed Legends - [I]The High I Feel When I'm Low[/I]
Tomahawk - [I]Mit Gas[/I]

[QUOTE=JonM]Dude I just watched the [i]Live At Pompeii[/i] DVD last night, and it was the coolest thing I've ever seen. It's post-Syd, but it's pre-[i]Dark Side[/i]. Check it out.[/QUOTE]

I'm not a huge Floyd fan by anyones standards, but Live at Pompeii is possibly the best live performance I've ever seen. Can you imagine being one those roadies. Just hanging out, ruins of Pompeii, private show by the Floyd - s[SIZE="2"]h[/SIZE]it.

"I like to think oysters transcend national barriers"

Scratch Acid - The Greatest Gift
The Replacements - All Shook Down

The World/Inferno Friendship Society - Red Eyed Soul

Boris - Pink

hellll yea

I downloaded a bunch of jazz albums from the past year, because the Downbeat Critic's Poll issue came in the mail. So far, [I]Overtime[/I] by the Dave Holland Big Band is a miss. Too bombastic.

I also got [I]Africa Brasil[/I] by Jorge Ben, and I don't like that, either.

Man, music sucks.

Roxy Music - [i]Avalon[/i]
Prefuse 73 - [i]Vocal Studies + Uprock Narratives[/i]

and now I'm off to start watching the second season of [i]Deadwood[/i]...

Digging a bunch of psychedelic pop songs. Right now, listening to some stuff by White Noise, a weird little early electronic band.

i just finished the first season tonight.

it started slow but it was pretty enjoyable once i started getting into it.

Man, "Pickpocket" is like the best ATDI song ever, so damn catchy. Plus it has nonsense lyrics like "breakfast table search team implodes." what

[QUOTE=Dimes Make Dollars][I]Africa Brasil[/I] is crazy good.[/QUOTE]

Exactly! I got it today and its a really nice album.

my favorite is transatlantic foe

Definitely. Without Swearengen though, the show would feel so lost. He really pulls everything together for me and makes it all worthwhile.

jurassic 5 - feedback
ariel pink's haunted graffiti - worn copy (this is really creative, it kinda makes me sick because of all the filters but it's like a 70s blaxploitation film in song form. cool.)

I've had [i]An Electric Storm[/i] in my hammerspace Amazon basket for months now. Whenever it comes down to actually ordering, it always gets kicked aside for something else. Is it worth the time?

I brought out the old Caifanes CDs.
