props for the okkervil
its totally worth it but if you wanna go through a whole GY!BE album i'd try f#a#?

Zmev 07-17-2007 11:44 PM

Ive tried f#a# three times and have shut it off after dead fag blues because it ****ing sucks.

And yeah Black Sheep Boy is pretty good.

margin0walker 07-17-2007 11:46 PM

Why? Lift Your Skinny Fists and Slow Riot are just as good.

bleep_bloop 07-18-2007 01:12 AM

Do you like the new Mum?

pulseczar 07-18-2007 02:25 AM

I haven't heard it yet, but hearing that they had new stuff coming out made me wanna rediscover their music. What's it like compared to their old stuff? i hear it has more live instruments.

Zmev 07-18-2007 03:52 AM

Just finished [I]Skinny Fists[/I] and it has confirmed my suspicious that it is indeed listenable.

br3ad_man 07-18-2007 04:53 AM

[quote]probably because po[SIZE=2]rn[/SIZE]ography and disintegration blow and so do the cure[/quote]

First Yo La Tengo and now The Cure? Not impressed.

Mildred Pierce 07-18-2007 07:18 AM

Hey Tangy Zizzle...Kyuss is badass, no?

Kyle 07-18-2007 08:14 AM

The Cure are one of the 3 or 4 bands that I consider my all time favorites. I've got all 13 (I think) of their albums and none of them are completely throwaway, and on top of that they made several timelessly classic releases aswell. Head On Then Door is pretty much perfect.

Is P0rnography good as people say it is? I always see it sitting there in the store looking quite shiny but just never pick it up as I've heard its rather boring from some sources. (If it helps you, my favorite Cure album I own is Disintegration).

Jacaranda 07-18-2007 12:59 PM

disintegration is my favorite cure album and porno is rather bleh. Boys Don't Cry/Three Imaginary Boys are my 2nd favorite

YDload 07-18-2007 04:12 PM

i had the opportunity to buy [i]End on End[/i] at a record store in Adams-Morgan but decided not to. i gave it a trial listen and most of the songs sounded kinda samey (except for "For Want Of" which i got off last.fm).

still, i feel its a wasted opportunity :-/

Anxious 07-18-2007 04:17 PM

Everything is so perfect in that album. I can't describe it any better than that. Everything just works.

Well the new, new one is different because the main singer left and was replaced with 3 new ones. It's different, but I'm diggin' it. I upload the new album to he list, but I'll rep you the link anyway.

Food For Thought rules

Anxious 07-18-2007 05:15 PM

Well they can't be good if they're emo, and stayed around long enough for more than one album.

The Great Decay 07-18-2007 05:19 PM

[QUOTE=pixiesfanyo;14997789]Food For Thought rules[/QUOTE]

I tried so hard to like Embrace, but I was never able to get into it.

Glitterati 07-18-2007 06:18 PM

Glory - [I]OST[/I]

James Horner's "Charging Fort Glory" is a brilliant piece of music. Also used in Gangs Of New York and The Professional.

YDload 07-18-2007 11:46 PM

Fugazi- [i]The Argument[/i]

its okay so far, might grow on me some more. i was hoping for more "Full Disclosure" -type songs with the crazy energy that made At the Drive-In want to exist.

bleep_bloop 07-18-2007 11:56 PM

i really like the guitar solo thing on Life and Limb
