The Chameleons UK - [I]Tony Fletcher Walked On Water[/I] EP

Oh man, I must hear more of this band. This is like, really dreamy post-punk. Really good stuff.

I've also been mad into that Oxes album that was uploaded in the mailing list. I can hear the similarities to Don Caballero.

glad to hear you liked it man

did anyone check out cinemechanica

madjack eyes are open wide open wide!

or something. [I]Strange Times[/I] is a great album.

Snowgoons - German Lugers
Wisemen - Wisemen Approaching

And still Bill Callahan's latest. There are about three pretty ****ing nice songs on it ("Diamond Dancer," "Sycamore," "A Man Needs a Woman Or...") but the rest is kinda eh. I guess I kinda feel that way about a good deal of the Smog albums I've heard.

Modest Mouse - [i]The Lonesome Crowded West[/i]

Such a good album.

The Beatles - [i]Let It Be... Naked[/i]

I hadn't listened to this since around when it came out. Track by track, it's stronger than the original, especially with its versions of "Across the Universe" and "Let It Be".

Pulp - [i]Different Class[/i]

I'm not gonna lie - I only had the singles until I found this for a few dollars last week. There's a song here and there that falls flat, but otherwise, everything is just classic.

Of Montreal - [i]Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?[/i]

It's definitely a more demanding listening experience than I would expect from Of Montreal, but I really like it so far. Plus, the packaging is damn cool.

Really cool.

Jackson C. Frank - those other songs he made

Deerhoof - Friend Oppertunity

It's grown on me. I really like it now.

wait what song?

my little lady friend got me that hot chip - the warning so i'm listening to that. its pretty good.
i also made her get a deerhoof pin but she won't wear it. so i dumped her for not being indie rock enuf.

Arvo Pärt

...AYWKUBTTOD- "So Divided"

why do people hate it?

Well first off it sucks.

[quote=Dimes Make Dollars;8228645]anyways

Sufjan Stevens - [I]Illnois[/I]

completely brilliant[/quote]123. Seriously probably the best album of the year.

i think the melodies are well written, and it's definitely a step above most current stuff.
obviously dosn'tsound like their other stuff,but that doesn't matter. it shouldn't really be compared. if i had t compare it, it'd definitely not match up. but it's good on its own.

A Sun Came is good, but it has never really amazed me or anything.

i duno if i'd say that

i really like Year Of Our Lord from [I]Enjoy Your Rabbit[/I]

Klashnekoff - [I]The Sagas Of[/I]

Damien Jurado - [I]And Now That I'm In Your Shadow[/I]

Man this is good.

Bushwick Bill - Phantom of the Rapra

Patti Smith

yeah

There's this DJ named Ricardo Villalobos who I feel like I've plugged a few times but too subtly for anyone to check him out. You really should. Get either [i]Thé Au Harem D'Archimède[/i] or [i]Fizheuer Zieheuer[/i]. Or both.

Menomena - Friend and Foe

This is really damn good, try and track down a copy.

While on the subject of Menomena, I also strongly suggest you check out their debut, [i]I Am The Fun Blame Monster[/i]. Not only is that an anagram for [i]The First Menomena Album,[/i] which is awesome, it is also awesome in a musical sense.

what sort of music are they?

if thats hard to answer, what bands would you relate them to

It's like very intelligent, not overly poppy indie rock, but it's not exactly rock either. Read the part in this article about their songwriting process, and imagine a group of technically proficient rock musicians writing songs like that:

[url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menomena[/url]

sounds like Apollo Sunshine

i'll have to get [I]i am the fun blame monster[/I]

i will read the wikipedia article directly after my refreshing shower

which is to begin in approximately two minutes

All I have is [I]Friend and Foe[/I], I quite like it.

I'm getting a Lucinda Williams album right now.

dunno why

Listening to the new Modest Mouse right now. Kind of boring the first time around, it will probably grow on me.
