[QUOTE=wheelz]today i bought [B]m83 - before the dawn heals us[/B], air - talkie walkie, talking heads - speaking in tounges, animal collective - sung tongs, gang of four - entertainment!, and mf doom - mm... food.

all are very good.[/QUOTE]

sik 1 m83. That's such a sweet album.

I'm really digging Arcade Fire. I almost bought the latest Nick Cave yesterday on sale and I will buy it eventually, I just have to get around to it.

[QUOTE=Bandaid]'Get ready for love' is quite possibley the most foot-tapping-head-bopping 1st song on a disc in the history of australian music[/QUOTE]
Amen.

Nick Cave is my man of the week. I've also been diggin' [I]Danse Macabre[/I] as I gave the my DJ friend the album and now she plays it all the time and it's freakin great.

thriftstoresweater 02-05-2005 11:11 PM

yeah yeah yeahs

Bandaid 02-06-2005 01:03 AM

some of the whitlams lately, im surprised how musical thet are now that i actually have some of their cds and can listen to them in entirity

wheelz 02-06-2005 02:10 AM

i didn't really like the arcade fire when i first heard them a while back, but now i'm totally loving "funeral".

i'm also liking the fiery furnaces. i saw that blueberry boat was high on pitchfork's best albums of 2004 list, then read a list the next day that called it worst album of the year, so i had to hear it. do most of you around here not named ihateusernames like these guys? seems to be a pretty love it or hate it thing.

[QUOTE=Zappa]Now you're allowed to post in this forum, I guess.[/QUOTE]

finally! thanks buddy.

Tangy zizzle 02-06-2005 02:22 AM

They're popular.

I introduced that album to this forum, I kinda regret it now.

indy_undy 02-06-2005 04:55 AM

Is [I]Euphoria Morning[/I] by Chris Cornell worth checking out?

Why so?

wheelz 02-06-2005 05:46 AM

[QUOTE=Happymeal]I think I'll pick up Les Savy Fav's or Guided by Voices' best of. They good?[/QUOTE]

les savy fav's "inches" is great. one of my favorite albums of 2004.

wheelz 02-06-2005 05:51 AM

it almost saddens me that it took this long before i heard "damaged goods" by gang of four. what the hell took me so long?

on an unrelated note, it definitely does sadden me every time i hear "car chase terror" by m83. **** that song's... emotional. and good.

Tomahawk 02-06-2005 06:29 AM

[QUOTE=indy_undy]Is [I]Euphoria Morning[/I] by Chris Cornell worth checking out?[/QUOTE]
Yes, definitely. It's not quite on Soundgarden levels, but it's better than Audioslave.

It's nothing like either of those bands though, it's more of a singer/songwriter type thing. [I]Steel Rain[/I] is f[SIZE=2]u[/SIZE]cking amazing, such an great song. Even if you don't get the album, everybody should check out that song.

The Ashtray Girl 02-06-2005 06:43 AM

I'm digging My Chemical Romance today.

Tapeworm 02-06-2005 07:49 AM

I agree with Tomahawk on the Cornell statements.

I was just listening to Led Zep for the first time in ages, and I like them again. Houses of the Holy is such a great album.

Bartender 02-06-2005 10:50 AM

Went CD shopping today (with the intention of getting something by Dinosaur Jr, actually). Now the proud owner of;
Therapy? - Infernal Love
Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
Stevie Wonder - Songs in the Key of Life

And the cautious owner of;
The Polyphonic Spree - Together We're Heavy

I only have two pound coins and a flora tub full of shrapnel between me and starvation now, though.

Really? I felt like that track was the weak point. Just so tacky and overdramatic. I don't particularly want to hear a poor voice actor amidst all the music... it hurt the overall flow of the album.

pinkyeti 02-06-2005 11:03 AM

How long do you have to live with the money?

[QUOTE=asymm]Really? I felt like that track was the weak point. Just so tacky and overdramatic. I don't particularly want to hear a poor voice actor amidst all the music... it hurt the overall flow of the album.[/QUOTE]

maybe it's just the drugs then. they seem to help the effect.

don't you at least love the music to that track?

asymm 02-06-2005 11:27 AM

[QUOTE=wheelz]don't you at least love the music to that track?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I do enjoy the music on that track, but of course the poor voice actor comes back in the middle of it. Oh well, could've been a great song, now it's just a decent one.

Bartender 02-06-2005 11:31 AM

[QUOTE=pinkyeti]How long do you have to live with the money?[/QUOTE]

Not sure. Presumably until whenever my parents decide to give me more :)

I have a couple of tins of hot dogs in my cupboard, though, and the shrapnel could well be up to £15 or so. There's quite a bit of it.

Happymeal 02-06-2005 06:16 PM

I couldn't find [I]Congregation[/I] anywhere so I had to settle with buying Nebula's [I]Atomic Ritual[/I]. Pretty good so far.

Robert Crumb 02-06-2005 07:44 PM

The Futureheads
Bebel Gilberto
Charizma y Peanut Butter Wolf

cb240 02-07-2005 10:39 AM

apples in stereo - tse

Bartender 02-07-2005 11:27 AM

[QUOTE=Master Arkam Kannon]its a good album, dont be worried.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, but I bought it blind (so I could have something to go with [i]Songs in the Key of Life[/i] in the two-for-£20 sale). I've been digging it most of today though and so far, you're right, it is a good album, so all is well.

The Ashtray Girl 02-07-2005 12:38 PM

I've been digging a lot of X Japan and M83, so thanks to bread and Iai. :)

pinkyeti 02-07-2005 01:01 PM

Morrissey and X Japan too.

Tapeworm 02-07-2005 05:58 PM

Sage frickin' Francis.

asymm 02-07-2005 06:03 PM

Hood's newest release [i]Outside Closer[/i]

It's a pretty decent album that fans of the Notwist's [i]Neon Golden[/i] would find something they enjoy...

NineBitFable 02-07-2005 07:08 PM

[QUOTE=narfy87]Sonic Youth[/QUOTE]

Which album? (Awesome band, btw)

pixiesfanyo 02-07-2005 07:09 PM
