Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea
finally listened after owning it for three months |
Yeah, Television's rhythm section is one of the main reasons I'll never understand the way The Strokes are compared to them. Strokes songs have a definite groove, a driving beat, where everyone is pretty much playing the same thing. Television songs have no groove because the drummer, bassist, and guitars are all doing their own thang. It's definitely not a bad thing to have no groove, I'm just pointing out the difference.

Just recently finally picked this up, having gotten [i]The Correct Use of Soap[/i] a couple of years ago, and having loved it. I remember listening, on WRM's recommendation, to songs like "Motorcade" and "The Great Beautician in the Sky" ages ago, when 'post punk' was a distant concept for me, and being thoroughly confused. The Feeling - Twelve Stops and Home I'd planned to pick this up pretty much ever since I heard Sewn and liked it. The reviews (both the casual music fans' "this is the best album ever"s and the higher-brow review sites' "this is a cynical marketing ploy"s) surrounding it are annoying, though. It's just a pretty good pop album. Also, is anyone here familiar with Bedouin Soundclash? I'm wondering if I should pick up their album sometime soon, or wait to buy it if/when I love them live at the end of October. |

Hell yea \m/ Bitpop owns. |
Ricardo Villalobos - "Thé Au Harem D'Archimède"
This record will change how you think about house music. I.e., it will make you like it. |
Just finished Akron/Family's new one [I]Meek Warrior[/I]. It was pretty alright, got a little samey. But the first track destroys.

We are scientists - With Love and Squalor

That band is f[B]u[/B]cking nuts |
Continuing my Television-"Venus" obsession:
[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqU4sn-JodE[/url] Tom Verlaine tries to teach Richard Hell how to play the bassline to "Venus" (the second part of the video should be linked somewhere on that page as well). It's pretty funny because Hell is really wasted and I can see why they replaced him before recording Marquee Moon. |

damn right. David Bowie - The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust |
Justin Timberlake - [I]FutureSex/LoveSounds[/I]
Sun Kil Moon - [I]Ghosts of the Great Highway[/I] Amazing. I don't think I've had this sort of reaction much after only listening to an abum once, but yeah, nacho you were right on the money. In places it reminded me a little bit of Ryan Adams (which can only be a good thing). It has a bit of a country feel sometimes and I dig that immensely. Neutral Milk Hotel - [I]In the Aeroplane Over the Sea[/I] It's ok. It has about as many great moments as it does really annoying ones, so it balances out. I can't see myself really getting into this album much. And now I'm listening to Shout Out Louds - [I]Howl Howl Gaff Gaff[/I]. It's pretty good stuff. |
I saw the Shout Out Louds supporting The Strokes, they were pretty dissapointing to be honest. I had liked a few of their songs beforehand, but it didn't translate well live.

I'm reviewing American Water. Tanglewood Numbers doesn't compare to it at all.
