[QUOTE=Zmev;15055535][i]Liquid Swords[/i]

This is good, but I'm not getting the reason for all the hype.[/QUOTE]

Something about that album doesn't 'click' with me as such either. It's a great album but I dunno, whether it's the beats or GZA's verses but for me it doesn't live up to the hype as one of the best of all time.

Apocalyptic Raids 07-31-2007 03:22 AM

I'm the same, Interstate. Cuban Linx on the other hand, I am obsessed with (even if it's too long).

Sh[I]i[/I]t I just found that on my PC and i've apparently had it in my library for ages! I've never listened to it properly before so I'm giving this a spin right now. I've seen it top hip hop album lists so I'm expecting great things.

Apocalyptic Raids 07-31-2007 03:28 AM

It's really good, but the length lets it down. The first half of the album is ****ing superb. I think I prefer it to [I]Liquid Swords[/I] purely because I'm a bigger fan of Raekwon and Ghostface's style over GZA's, and I like its mood more than LS's.

Sweet. I'll let you know what I think when I give it a spin. I've got [I]Ready To Die[/I] on now but I'm playing [I]Cuban Linx[/I] straight after.

I've been wanting to get Liquid Swords b/c I've heard a lot of good things about it.

br3ad_man 07-31-2007 07:29 AM

[quote=Little Man being Erased;15055485]I can't remember what it's called but I'm pretty sure it'll be on the album, and yeah it's one of their better songs. Oh yeah, and I'm probably going to that show on Thursday night.
:wave:

As bread said the album doesn't come out until early August (the 11th to be exact), all I have at the moment is the single (I can send you that if you want?).

And I'll definitely be going to the Minties show. I can't wait for that one.[/quote]

Maybe/hopefully I'll see you at one of them. Say hi if you see me. I'll try and do the same but I might not because I'm shy. :o

Liquid Swords took a bit to click with me, but now I do love it. Cuban Linx is great, but it gets a bit rusty nearing the end.

Thanks 07-31-2007 06:24 PM

I think After the Heat by Eno/Moebelius/Roedelius should be more well known. It's a great almost ambient Krautrock album, and a really good collaboration. Eno is very restrained, and his vocals actual add to the tunes in an Another Green World sort of way, rather than his earlier glam rock stuff. The two members of Cluster that accompany him are also at their melodic best. Really worth a listen if you're into this sort of thing.

Apocalyptic Raids 08-01-2007 02:15 AM

Idaho - [I]Hearts Of Palm[/I] - This is good, it hasn't hit me in the same way that [I]Three Sheets To The Wind[/I] did when I first heard it but I expect it will.

Funeral Diner - [I]The Underdark[/I] - I've always heard good things about this band but this is the first time I've actually listened to their material. Amazing stuff. I shall definitely be getting my hands on more.

it's less accessible than three sheets but you'll hear the brilliance in at least the first four tracks in time

i just got [i]Fates[/i] by Erik Mongrain

man this guy's ear for melody is impeccable; one of the better guitarists i've heard.

Yeah I had it on WMP while I was surfing the net and the first half of the album really caught my attention but it sort of trailed off for the second half but I was trying to pack for holiday and send emails and things at the same time so that's probably why. I'm gonna burn it to CD and listen to it properly on my flight tomorrow.

1st is awesome, especially New Puritan.

Pelican - [I]The Fire In Our Throats Will Beckon The Thaw[/I] - On first listen I like this more than [I]Australasia[/I].

The Decemberists - [I]Castaways & Cutouts[/I] - I lost this when my old PC died on me so I recently downloaded it again and it's great.
