[QUOTE=br3ad_man;14608595]Good album, my second favourite of the year so far.[/QUOTE]

whats #1? [I]Drums and Guns [/I] is #2 for me too.

my #1 album of the year so far is The Other Men - [I]Wake Up Swimming[/I]

Since I'll be witnessing them at the Pitchfork music festival, decided to try out Fujiya & Miyagi. It's pretty da[size=2]mn[/size]ed ho-hum, unfortunately. A few nice tracks here and there, though.

^ agreed with this assessment. Meh.

anyway, checking out a lot of new stuff!

Not bad at all, read a few pretty scathing reviews, but I think it just caught them a little off-guard is all. Pretty excellent moments for sure, check it out if you're into improv, noisy sh[size=2]it[/size].

Okkervil River

LN - [I]Novel

How is that Fushitshusha album actually? I like some of the stuff Haino has done, it can be pretty cool.

Actually I'm pretty sure I have a few Fushitshusha albums somewhere, I can't remember which ones though

i didnt like it but maybe its just not my thing. i definitely couldnt listen to it for an hour

yeah I managed to figure that out

oh ok good

Wipers - [I]Over the Edge[/I]

Not as good as [I]Is This It[/I] or [I]Youth of America[/I], but still pretty good. I really like Greg's guitar work on this record.

Stars of the Lid
The Beatles - [I]Rubber Soul[/I]

Faust - [I]Rien[/I]

[QUOTE=AlienEater;14610318]Faust - [I]Rien[/I][/QUOTE]

I havn't heard this, but Faust are playing near me on 8th June. I really wanna go. Is this album good?

listening to Yoko Ono's [i]Yes, I'm A Witch[/i] - due to her (surprising) appearance at Pitchfork.

and to contrast, Lightning Bolt - [i]Hypermagic Mountain[/i]

Yeah it's good, I like it. It's produced by Jim O'Rourke which is cool

Definitely go see them. I would

wtf how can you like [I]Is This [B]Real[/B][/I] more than [I]Over the Edge[/I]? OtE has the best first side ever.

Love - [i]Forever Changes[/i]

early Lacrimas Profundere.

[QUOTE=Zmev;14610490]Love - [i]Forever Changes[/i][/QUOTE]

I used to have that album, but I lost it. :(

If you have time, do you think you might be able to upload it to the list?

[QUOTE=metalicajaymz;14610432]wtf how can you like [I]Is This [B]Real[/B][/I] more than [I]Over the Edge[/I]? OtE has the best first side ever.[/QUOTE]

I don't know, Over the Edge just doesn't do it for me. I guess I like their more poppy stuff.

Flipper - [I]Generic Flipper[/I]

Is Flipper any good?

Brainbombs- [I]Obey[/I]

similar to that Flipper album. Noisy, sludgy, riffs played over and over, but the lyrics are mostly about killing people. It's decent.

Flipper is good

All the reviews that I've read talk about the band being slow.. but there are maybe one or two slowish songs.

Charles Bukowski - [I]Poems and Insults[/I]

Elliott Smith - New Moon

pulse, what Elliot Smith is the best? I've heard either/or and it was good, but I remember you saying it wasn't his best or something.

also Sonic Youth - [i]Washing Machine[/i]

his best is his self-titled album, which is similar to either/or since it's mostly guitar and sparse percussion with his best songs. but if you think you'd like more fully produced, complete band, beatles-y smith, go for the album XO

I really like Roman Candle, probibly more than his S/T, but the S/T is still really good. XO is great, and so is Figure 8 which is in the same vein. I like all of his albums.

I've heard two Elliott Smith albums and none of them was that good. It's been about a year since I listened to him, though. Maybe I'd like it more now.

I'm still digging the Voidoids and Times New Viking.

I'm digging the fact that they came out with a Kaoss Pad Mini. Korg I love you.
