they are kind of annoying, very spastic like TMV or SOAD even. i think it would take me a while to get into them if i even wanted to, but i do appreciate their unique sound.

[QUOTE=A Dead Modernist;16021715]Atlas Sound - [I]Let The Blind Lead Those Who Can See But Cannot Feel[/I]

I think I only downloaded this because of the name, because I really don't enjoy Deerhunter, but this is really good, probably my favorite 08 release so far.[/QUOTE]

I heard a song from this and it was a blatant animal collective rip off.

A Dead Modernist 02-23-2008 01:51 PM

Yeah, it's defentiely a mix between Animal Collective, Manitoba, and Panda Bear ([I]Person Pitch[/I]).

Equus 02-23-2008 02:14 PM

ugh

Anxious 02-23-2008 02:56 PM

I need to get some Cardiacs.

[QUOTE=Equus;16021949]ugh[/QUOTE]

I was going to write a review for it because I kinda felt the same. I thought I'd like it more since I do like those other bands. I like the first song but then I get bored.

I got the new Silver Mnt. Zion but I don't really know these guys that much and the stuff I've heard was kinda eh. Packaging is neat, though. I haven't been listening to much stuff from this year. I oughta shape up.

William Shatner - Has Been

Enjoyable. Espcially "I can't get behind that." Who can hate shatner and rollins ranting?

cbmartinez 02-23-2008 03:49 PM

album rules 'common people' is so funny

pulseczar 02-23-2008 03:49 PM

Cardiacs are really annoying. I could barely get through the one album I had by them. The singer's all whiny like that douche from the Sex Pistols.

asdf 02-23-2008 04:02 PM

I am annoyed by Cardiacs usually. I guess today I just got over it.

And "common people" is an awesome song. I heard that on the radio here, never found out who it was, then later when my friend transfered me a bunch of music it was in that. I decided the whole album was worth a try.

YDload 02-23-2008 04:47 PM

i finally bought Source Tags and Codes today, from a used record store for five bucks. i wish i had gotten the actual album sooner, not only cause the songs need to be gapless, but the artwork in the lyrics booklet is great.

Glitterati 02-23-2008 06:13 PM

I was sorting albums in the back of the store the other day (I work at HMV) and I found an album of Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner doing space-themed acoustic duets.

Today;

Dr. Dre - [I]The Chronic[/I]
The Doors - [I]OST[/I]
My Bloody Valentine - [I]Isn't Anything[/I]

I own it on vinyl, found it when I went to see Envy :D

Anxious 02-23-2008 06:22 PM

Warning- [I]Watching From a Distance[/I]

What initially put me off from this is the production, but now I appreciate it. This band is so f[B]u[/B]cking great.

sweboy 02-23-2008 06:31 PM

Howlin Rain - Magnificent Fiend
Jack Rose - I Do Play Rock And Roll
Chris Corsano, Ben Chasny / Paul Metzger split

Deerhunter - [I]Cryptograms[/I]

Pretty sweet.

Montana 02-23-2008 09:05 PM

David Dondero - [I]Simple Love[/I]

Acoustic love songs. This is the first album of his that I've listened to completely; it was a good experience.

YDload 02-23-2008 10:18 PM

i have seen some band names floating around this thread, please tell me more about the following:

Kind Of Like Spitting
Off Minor
This Heat
Harvey Milk

thanks :)

Boilermaker 02-23-2008 10:23 PM

Kind of Like Spitting - you'd like them. Kind of like a more emo GVB. I dunno.

YDload 02-23-2008 10:37 PM

[QUOTE=Boilermaker;16023468]Kind of Like Spitting - you'd like them. Kind of like a more emo GVB. I dunno.[/QUOTE]

checked em (or "him" really) out on last.fm... you should have just said "like Rocky Votolato" cause i would have known what you were talkin about.

i dunno, not really feelin it. really seems like more of a poet strumming a guitar than a songwriter. and as you know, im all about the music and words themselves take a backseat.

i really didnt even need to ask, i guess. last.fm does the work for me.

lol Harvey Milk sounds so Melviny

cbmartinez 02-23-2008 10:38 PM

Off Minor is like really good technical sounding emo with members of Saetia from what I remember

AlienEater 02-24-2008 02:11 AM

[QUOTE=Bukowski;16020704]Yeah man. They were so ahead of their time as well. Mind blowingly original and good.[/QUOTE]

even in a period of a ridiculous amount of musical innovation they still stand out as one of the most interesting and original. haha I remember reading a letter to a national newspaper that said they invented drum and bass

sgrevs 02-24-2008 03:58 AM

Swans - [I]The Annihilator[/I]

This be some cool sh[I]i[/I]t.

Anxious 02-24-2008 04:15 AM

Harvey Milk are a lot like the Melvins, great stuff.

This Heat still blow my mind when I think of when their stuff was actually released. "Sleep" is such a great song. It seems like at times that they just picked up where off where Can started to suck and just went from there.

Off Minor are one of those screamo bands I like, due to them being interesting and jazzy.

Neoteric 02-24-2008 05:48 AM

I was listening to Harvey Milk lying in my bed last night. It was major chill.

Captain Beefheart - [I]Safe As Milk[/I]

Who can't like the captain?

sgrevs 02-24-2008 05:55 AM

The Octopus Project - [I]Hello, Avalanche[/I]

Reminds me somewhat of Holy F[I]u[/I]ck.

Neoteric 02-24-2008 06:58 AM

Don't know why I didn't check this out sooner, it's kickin'.

Re-up Gang - [I]We Got it 4 Cheap Vol.3[/I]
Awesome recent mix-tape from Clipse and friends.

Boilermaker 02-24-2008 09:23 AM

Boilermaker 02-24-2008 10:49 AM

Eliminator, you and I agree on many things.

This is not one of them.
