[QUOTE=manuscriptreplica]They are quite the pair

[B]Can I say Carcass in here[/B], or what

And I finally obtained Mezzanine, thanks to Bartender's recommendation, I will let you know what I think shortly![/QUOTE]

Yes. This is the most "metal" \m/ thread in the whole of MX.

\m/

Lightning Bolt > Mastodon.

hmmm *strokes chin*

Listening to [I]Duel in The Deep[/I] through a decent pair o' muffs is a trip man.

ivy - guestroom

get the album now!

The Mass puts the "bang" in Bangkok.

i've been listening to biffy clyro's infinity land, neil young's harvest, radiohead stuff, bill withers..i know weird choice, but i'm really into his style

I know I said a few weeks ago that The Levellers were my new record for taking a long time to check out a band - just over two years - but I found a new winner already. The Cocteau Twins.

I remember back in February 2002, literally just when I'd joined, posting in an R&M thread about electronica/great female singers, I think. This thread (thanks to Orb and a couple of others who have long since left) got me into Massive Attack (via Teardrop) and Bjork, and recommended the Cocteau Twins (again, somewhat via Teardrop, when I reported back that I knew and loved it). Here I am, November 2004, having just bought my first Cocteau Twins album. 32 months to check someone out is pathetic :(

Anyway, I think I'm falling in love with Liz Fraser's voice. That's the only real point of this post.

[COLOR=Red]Okay, my ex-girlfriend made me this cd a looong time ago and I need to know who sings this one song that goes kinda like this:

I wanted to see birds
So you took me to the sea
I felt like I could fly against the sky you showed to be
Airplanes passed above us
So only I could hear
When you whispered 'I love you'
So softly in my ear
These are the best days
These are the best days

...so on and so forth
it is a chick singing too

Oh, and so i'm not completely irrelevant, These Arms are Snakes are a really good band, check out Criteria if you like them. [/COLOR]

^Google tells me that it's "The Best Days" by the Softies.

huh...i couldn't find it but thanks a lot

[QUOTE=Tangy zizzle]Lightning Bolt > Mastodon.[/QUOTE]

Lightning Bolt is the Bee's Knees man, ive found a lot of their sounds to be similar to Brainiac's really out there stuff.

Tangy, is that Josh Homme in your avatar?

Recently...

Death From Above 1979
Frog Eyes
Red House Painters (they almost never leave my rotation though...)
Boards of Canada

Prefuse 73
Weezer
The Circulatory System
The Pixies

Lately I've constantly been listening to:

Eric Dolphy
Bill Evans
Charles Mingus
Rahsaan Roland Kirk
Nomeansno
The Specials
Television

I put on my Audioscrobbler radio station. It started playing Sonic Youth, and I was all "ick..." but now I'm actually enjoying this song that I've always hated. What's going on?

You've grown acoustum to their sound.

But it's not live I've been listening to them trying to get into it. It just happened to come up. I think it's odd.

[QUOTE=YDload]Tangy, is that Josh Homme in your avatar?[/QUOTE]

Why yes, yes it is. And wouldn't you say that's one of the sexiest ginger men you ever sawed?

I've been listening to [i]Let It Be[/i] this afternoon as well... The Replacements version that is

Meshuggah

The Blood Brothers

Dimmer.

Holy crap!

Mississippi John Hurt.

Lightning Bolt are the best heavy band on the planet.

Try and compete.

Every time I listen to Hot Snakes I like them a little more.

They have now made it into my top 10. Awesome band.

I still prefer Drive Like Jehu.

I think they might have ploughed their way into my Top 40 or something. After a week of having 1 of their albums.

I'm pickin up what you puttin' down. I hear ya barkin' dog.

DLJ are cool as well.
