Brazil was better. Neither was great.

Journey
The Shins

XTC - [I]The Black Sea[/I]

haven't listened in a while. "Respectable Street" is great of course, and "Rocket From a Bottle" is disgustingly catchy.

Cynic - [I]Focus[/I]

I'm not much of a metal fan but this album is amazing.

Melvins - [I]Ozma[/I]
Sonic Youth - [I]Sister[/I]

oh yes.

easily my favorite XTC and by easily i mean its a tiny bit better then Drums and Wires but not as good as the first half of Skylarking.

Tilly & the Wall - [I]Bottoms of Barrels[/I]
Winterkids - [I]Memoirs[/I]

Both decent.

Iggy Pop - The Idiot

Happy birthday, Iggy.

Espers - II
Explosions in the Sky - All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone
Howlin' Rain - Howlin' Rain

[QUOTE=asdf;14584235]Iggy Pop - The Idiot

Happy birthday, Iggy.[/QUOTE]

I listened to all of Lust for Life when I was getting ready this morning :thumb:

Neil Young.

;___;

Elliott Smith - Either/Or

The Mekons - Rock N Roll

this is the first time ive really listened to these guys, surprisingly. its a lot less "post punk" sounding than i expected. pretty good, though.

That album kind of sucks.

Oh wow, I really should get my hands on [I]The Black Sea[/I] then. [I]Drums and Wires[/I] is amazing and yeah I agree about [I]Skylarking[/I] dying in the arse in the second half.

Joy Electric - [I]The White Songbook - Legacy Vol. 1[/I]

All analog synth pop type stuff. Pretty dark. It's one of my favourite electronic albums.

Green Milk From the Planet Orange
Touchers - [I]The Underwater Fascist[/I]

Autechre - [I]Amber[/I]
Mahavishnu Orchestra - [I]Birds of Fire[/I]

Amber is awesome, however Birds of Fire ****ing sucks.

Scratch Acid - [i]The Greatest Gift[/i]

most of these songs are really good, and since its basically their whole career that's a good sign.

i could have gotten [i]Sister[/i] or [i]I Can Hear the Heart Beating As One[/i] but i figured this was the rarest find of the three and i had to get it while i was still in DC (my last day, back home now :):()

Richard Hell - [I]Blank Generation[/I]
The Dictators - [I]Blood Brothers[/I]

Bonnie 'Prince' Billy - [I]I See a Darkness[/I]
Yo La Tengo -[I]And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out[/I]
Germans - [I]Cape Fear[/I]
Macha - [I]See it Another Way[/I]

Led Zeppelin - [I]II[/I]

Calvin Johnson and the Sons of Soils - [I]Calvin Johnson and the Sons of Soil[/I]

This is really good. For example, if you like Beat Happening, you should listen to this.

[I]Surfer Rosa[/I]

[I]Menos El Oso[/I]

Feels - Animal Collective
Sung tongs-

I've only heard their stuff on the Fast Product compilation, but it's good. I should get more

Slint - Tweez

This is really weird. I like it.
