I'm not saying there good. I'm saying that there's probably a few people on this forum that would scold me for the missed opportunity for any of those bands.

Same with sunn0))) and Devendra Banhart.[/QUOTE]

pshhhhhh @ you.

i'd kill to see them for free.

[QUOTE=wang masta flex;13762102]They're playing in a really small venue in DC in February... I really wanna go I just need someone to drive me down haha.[/QUOTE]

I'm going to go, where do you live?

I've [I]really[/I] been digging Either/Or. It just clicked with me immediately. I also bought Roman Candle, which is awesome as well but not as perfect. Elliott Smith will be one of my favorites soon, surely.

Major Stars - Synopticon

It's pretty great, has some really awesome triple guitar parts.

Me too! I just got Either/Or and am listening to it at this very moment. He's already one of my favorites though. I think he's number 2 on my Last.FM

[QUOTE=wang masta flex;13761906]Has anyone heard The Medications? Very similar to Faraquet. I would check out [i]Your Favorite People All In One Place[/i]... I'm really digging this album right now.[/QUOTE]

The EP's pretty awesome, but the album's kinda hit or miss.

The new Ghostface is hot. By which I mean it is [i]going[/i] to be hot...

I'm also digging this new collab between Zion I and The Grouch entitled [i]Heroes In The City Of Dope[/i]. It's nothing revolutionary, but it's refreshingly real hip hop.

True post all around, Jon. I've been trying to get people to listen to Heros in the City of Dope for awhile now. It will grow on you big time.

You should check out High and Mighty - 12th Man. It's some good ****.

Checking out.

Been checking out ol' Nick Drake, recently. Good shi

Yellow Swans - [i]Psychic Sessions[/i]
Therapeutic, yet abrasive droning.

I'm going to be doing some potentially noisy atmospheric flourishes in my friend's recording, so I'm trying to hear more and be inspired. I'm also looking into a few more technical means of getting it done. Any tips on non-musical items used for the creation of music?

Einstürzende Neubauten do a lot of that. Not sure if that's the kind of thing you're thinking of, but they may well give you a few ideas, at least.

Red House Painters - [I]Red House Painters I[/I] - I'm in the mood for this.

Tom Waits - [I]Rain Dogs[/I]

it's been a while

[QUOTE=wang masta flex;13764080]im perriwinkle heh :wave:[/QUOTE]

Oh haha I can't drive up to Vienna and then to DC :-x

Yo La Tengo - [i]I Am Not Afraid of You and I Will Beat Your A[size=2]s[/size]s[/i]
Cursive - [i]Happy Hollow[/i]

things

Television - [I]Marquee Moon[/I]

This is a such a great listen, especially the title track.

Slowdive - Pygmalion

Beautiful, quite different frm Souvlaki.

Ryan Adams - [I]Love is Hell[/I]
Cat Power - [I]Moon Pix[/I]

Sun Kil Moon- [I]Ghosts of the Great Highway

[/I]It's a classic album now. :)

The Replacements- "Pleased to Meet Me"

amazing album, minus "I Didn't Know", "Nightclub Jitters" and "Shooting Dirty Pool". those tracks are horrid.

q and not u - different damage

The French Kicks- "Trial of the Century"

dreamy.

The 25 minute version of The Diamond Sea on the new Sonic Youth.

Yann Tiersen - [i]L'Absente[/i]
I love this man, but I think I like his compositions alone better than hearing people sing with his playing (even if it is in French). Nevertheless, this album's nice.

Burial - Burial
Beck - Midnite Vultures
So Many Dynamos - Flashlights
The Dillinger Escape Plan - Calculating Infinity
The Knife - Deep Cuts
The New Por[I]n[/I]ographers - Electric Version

[QUOTE=Dimes Make Dollars;13765109]Deftones - [I]Saturday Night Wrist[/I]

i like Rapture.
the yelling is catchy.

Big Black -[I] Songs About Fu[size=2]cking[/size][/I]

Good s[size=2]h[/size]it right there.
