I just got hold of F#A#infinty. Its pretty quality.

[QUOTE=TheSadMafioso;15310739]So has anyone listened to Rosetta's new album [I]Wake/Lift[/I]?[/QUOTE]

Just listening to the end of it now (the last few minutes of Monument). I can definitely say it's solid and the atmosphere is just awesome. How it compares to their other album I don't know.. I don't have the second disc of that for some reason, and I couldn't really digest it all the first time round.

I've sent it to the DU.. but, does anyone want it NOWNOWNOW?

I'm gonna give this one another spin with some Sennheisers :)
Got a bit distracted the first time.

Talk talk's last two album releases anyone?

I need to get [I]Laughing Stock[/I]. I've got [I]Spirit of Eden[/I] though, which is alright.

I'd say Yanqui U.X.O. is their worst. That's the only one that I don't really listen too..

Yanqui has one good song

Laughing Stock is one of the best albums ever made.

I've done two Rosetta-related things this week.

First, I downloaded the official rip of the overlayed Galilean Satellites (so I don't have to sync anything up). Holy.Fu[SIZE="2"]c[/SIZE]king.S[SIZE="2"]h[/SIZE]it. The album was fantastic already, and playing both discs at the same time just put all the amazing-ness into hyperdrive.

Second, Wake/Lift is fantastic. Every song on there is incredible. And because the song lengths are a little bit shorter it's a lot easier to digest right off. The only slightly weak track is (Temet Nosce).
Because of this, I ordered the album from Translation Loss' site, and I get a bonus disc, t-shirt, and poster out of the deal as well. Sweet.

been listening to much Ghastly City Sleep lately.

That's a good band.

Do they have more than their S/T? I'd google it, but this forum is stagnant enough as it is.

that first part of your post doesn't make much sense sense but if you're asking what I think you're asking, then the answer is no.

My favourite post rock bands are Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Explosions In The Sky, Do Make Say Think, Caspian, Pelican and Russian Circles. Pretty generic but hey.

I really don't like Do Make Say Think.

/non-ninja edit

uh yeah, that's a shame then.


And DMST took forever to get into, at least for me. I passionately disliked them for half a year, then finally understood that their focus was completely apart from the rest of the post rock scene. That's when they clicked for me. They're thoroughly enjoyable now.

Hmm, I'll give them a chance then.



Really diggin' Callisto lately.

[QUOTE=XMII;15359631]I really don't like Do Make Say Think.[/QUOTE]

I don't really like them either.

What have you guys heard? You, You're a History in Rust is my fave.

Jakob's Solace is interesting.

Only & Yet & Yet from the Daily Upload.

[QUOTE=TojesDolan;15360025]Jakob's Solace is interesting.[/QUOTE]

It's okay.

& yet is their best one
nice and chilled out jazzy

[QUOTE=Dr. Jake Destructo;15360003]What have you guys heard? You, You're a History in Rust is my fave.[/QUOTE]
I've heard Winter Hymn Country Hymn Secret Hymn. For me it was kind of in one ear and out the other. there was only one riff that stood out to me.

Tralala band

& Yet & Yet is a good as it gets with them.

Yeah rice, I'm not big on that album. I wouldn't tell you to give them another shot, but if you get around to You, You're a History in Rust, you may enjoy them a bit.

All Do Make Say Think is great. However & yet & yet is clearly tops.

i was at my old high school yesterday morning getting some observation hours under my belt and during a break i was talking to some kids and they had no idea what post-rock was. so i taught them the basics and who to listen to. im hoping i was able to expand their taste and away from MTV. all the black kids walked away though, not that theirs anything wrong with that

Listening to Red Sparowes - At The Soundless Dawn atm, how do you guys rate this album?

What the hell?

Yeah, I might give them another try. I didn't hate it (yeah, a glowing endorsement, I know).

I like the stuff that isn't too abstract. I'll take some new Pelican, Do Make Say Think, Red Sparowes and Tortoise. Stuff like GYBE! is only good if I'm blunted or tripping haha... really.

new DMST is boring

new album Nepenthe is digging is boring.

snaketown

good thread.

I just stumbled across these two bands on last.fm, and really liked their sound. I didn't see them mentioned here. I specified the songs that played too....

Bossk: (the track "I" is the one I heard, really liked it quite a bit)
[url]http://www.myspace.com/bossk[/url]


Shora: (the track "Parhelion." this one was playing in the background before it got my attention. I think around 2:35 is when it really stuck out, listening to it again as I type this...)

i'll give them a shot yes why not cool

Also, someone mentioned if anyone had any other Russian Circles albums beyond "Enter."

I have their demo cd that I got at a show of theirs, before Enter came out. Nothing new, just earlier recordings of the Enter tracks, but you might be interested. I would like to get their "Re-enter" EP. I have the vinyl, but I think there is a defect on it, it always skips on me :(
