Lightning Bolt - everything
the tapping on Bizarro Zarro Land blows my mind and makes me jealous that i cant tap like that

Robert Crumb 05-19-2007 07:59 PM

"Tonto" is the greatest song of the month.

Yet another thing I was told to see and then missed the show, and am likely to regret it.

Probably not that much since they only have had one original member since 2003.

That's an accomplishment. Sometimes, that album can be difficult to listen to in one sitting.

Minuteflag EP

I'm enjoying this.

speaking of Watt, i can't play the bass in "History Lesson, Pt. II." it's too fu[size=2]cking[/size] confusing! i THINK the verses are just B-A-F#-E, but who knows?? I can't even fall back on just trying scales and seeing what works because Watt and Boon jammed with basically no knowledge of music at all. there's no telling how they came up with something this awesome and i will never be able to replicate it :(

Eliminator 05-19-2007 09:10 PM

good reason to stop playing bas

That's not even close. The four verse notes are:

A--2--1-----
E-------2--0

Nobody ever tabs Minutemen songs correctly (except "Spillage" which is how I learned to play it: an online tab). It's like the idiots who think the first two notes of "The Glory of Man" are an octave apart. It's a minor seventh!

Sanjna 05-19-2007 10:55 PM

hardcore rap.

Yes, okay, [I]Wild Love[/I] by Smog is pretty sweet.

[QUOTE=Anxious;14716028]Frank Zappa-Meets the Mothers of Prevention


Brilliant.[/QUOTE]

That's a pretty sweet album. "Po[COLOR="White"]r[/COLOR]n Wars" certainly delivers. I also really like "We're Turning Again" for what it is, and "What's New in Baltimore" and "Alien Orifice" became classics and live staples, and rightly so.

[QUOTE=Anxious;14717947]Don Caballero-American Don[/QUOTE]

I love that album. Probably my favourite Don Cabellero album

Bukowski 05-20-2007 05:54 AM

[QUOTE=asdf;14717975]Yet another thing I was told to see and then missed the show, and am likely to regret it.[/QUOTE]

Nah, I saw Don Caballero in November and they were kind of lame. Not bad by any means, they were solid but just...uninspiring. Damon Che is an excellent drummer though, and quite an amusingly weird guy as well.

I thought World Class Listening Problem was pretty good. Not as good as the original line up but still enjoyable

I'd like to see them live too.

HumanCannonball 05-20-2007 08:20 AM

Gogol Bordello - Gypsy Punks-Underdog World Strike
Spoon - Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga
mewithoutYou - Catch For Us the Foxes

They all rock, especially the newest Spoon release which is absolutely amazing.

You mean the rollercoaster one? I'm listening to it right now :cool:

i also figured out how to play a couple of those sweet piano notes in Mistress on guitar (you know, the piano version aka the only one that matters)

pulseczar 05-20-2007 10:03 PM

the band version is way better than the piano version

YDload 05-21-2007 12:19 AM
