[QUOTE=dkmaddog]Wow, why did nobody ever tell me about Fischerspooner before?? Just began listening to them, and they are absolutely amazing. Are their any Fischerspooner fans here??[/QUOTE]
Hells yeah! Electroclash is great. And Tear Away was a fantastic single. I can't believe it didn't do better, especially in a country where Scissor Sisters would be huge not even 2 years later.

Trivia - Fischerspooner signed to Ministry of Sound for a reported $2,000,000. :eek:

MC5 are awesome, I'm so glad I bought one of their CD's the other day.

[QUOTE=Tomahawk]I saw OK Computer on vinyl today. Fifty-two dollars.[/QUOTE]
I have [i]OK Computer[/i] on vinyl... it was a gift but it only cost $25. Which isn't too bad considering it's a 2xLP and considered such a 'modern classic'.

Recently I've been into Christmas gifts...

Low - [i]A Lifetime of Temporary Relief[/i]
The Standard - [i]Wire Post to Wire[/i]
Fennesz - [i]Venice[/i]

and some things I picked up...

My Bloody Valentine's [i]Isn't Anything[/i]
Brian Eno's [i]Ambient 1 & 2[/i]
The Delays - [i]Faded Seaside Glamour[/i]
Talking Heads - [i]Stop Making Sense LP[/i]
The Psychedelic Furs - [i]The Psychedelic Furs LP[/i]

Iron & Wine - 9/22/02

Glassjaw - Everything You've Ever Wanted to Know About Silence

Soundgarden's "Superunknown" is quickly becoming one of my favorite albums ever. Even the sludgy, "grunge" tracks are still fun to listen to, thanks to Cornell's amazing voice and Thayil's considerable guitar skills.

br3ad_man 12-31-2004 07:10 PM

I'm really loving "Freak Out!" this morning. I'm also digging the Goo Goo Dolls and Cryptopsy.

Tangy zizzle 12-31-2004 07:37 PM

Quicksand's [I]Slip[/I].

Doctor D. 12-31-2004 08:04 PM

Right now I'm I'm giving my first listen to the newly purcahsed The Icarus Line's "Penance Soiree"

I hope you hit the nail on the head again Tangy.

Happymeal 12-31-2004 08:07 PM

The Jelly Jam. I wanna get Lykathea Aflame's [I]Elvenefris[/I] sometime.

[QUOTE=santodios]denali[/QUOTE]

yes:thumb:

Doctor D. 12-31-2004 09:40 PM

Ok, Tangy, you were absolutely correct.

Tangy zizzle 12-31-2004 09:41 PM

Good stuff innit?

Bartender 01-01-2005 12:12 AM

I just watched an old episode of Later With Jools Holland earlier tonight, and it had;

Elton John
Ray Montagna (unsure of spelling, and so can't Google to check)
Interpol
Keane
Bloc Party
Old Crow Medicine Show

All of whom, apart from Keane, were good. My first experiences with OCMS, Bloc Party and Interpol, and they were all pretty good, so I'm gonna be looking into checking them out in the near future, hopefully.

br3ad_man 01-01-2005 04:51 AM

Bloc Party are awesome.

manuscriptreplica 01-01-2005 05:11 AM

I like Vomitory lately

And for some alt + indie stuff, I bought the re-issue of Relationship of Command, now I have 2 copies :) And 1 extra track

br3ad_man 01-01-2005 05:33 AM

Bartender's review reminded me how awesome the William Shatner album is. I love it.

Luxor 01-01-2005 11:28 AM

One of my parents friends bought that for my mom for christmas. I've never heard it though.

Happymeal 01-01-2005 11:41 AM

The Blood Brothers' [I]March on Electric Children[/I]

Tangy zizzle 01-01-2005 04:38 PM

I am going to compile a list of bands that I believe fit well together, and are better than you're band. If you don't know any of them, I command (omg NAZI!@$5$423) you to peep them... now.

Murder City Devils
Cursive
Pretty Girls Make Graves
The Dismemberment Plan
Pluto
These Arms Are Snakes

That looks nice.

br3ad_man 01-01-2005 06:16 PM

[QUOTE=IhateUsernames]One of my parents friends bought that for my mom for christmas. I've never heard it though.[/QUOTE]

Hear it.

Iai 01-01-2005 06:21 PM

Pretty Girls Make Graves suck.

Radio 01-01-2005 06:27 PM

I've been heavily digging Interpol this evening, though Im not sure why in particular.

Tangy zizzle 01-01-2005 07:25 PM

[QUOTE=Iai]Pretty Girls Make Graves suck.[/QUOTE]

No, the new Avril Lavigne album sucks.

Happymeal 01-01-2005 08:27 PM

I've never heard of Pluto before, so I'll check them out. PGMG <3

Doctor D. 01-02-2005 12:44 AM

Ok....today I spent 50 bucks on three Cd's. They were-

The Birthday Party - Prayers On Fire
John Zorn - Film Music XII
Secret Cheifs 3- Second Grand Constitution and Bylaws

And I'm currently listening to Mr.Bungle's Claifornia.

Zappa 01-02-2005 12:45 AM

Fugazi, believe it or not
Latyrx
Albert Ayler (look out for an Ayler review in the near future)

OrbDragon 01-02-2005 03:48 AM

Jaga Jazzist is my new fetish...it's just amazing stuff. Especially "Cinematic" and "Airborne". I found out about them when I was checking their collaboration with Motorpsycho...another amazing band.


Xiu Xiu (like the Unicorns, I've checked out another weird alt rock outfit...cool ****)
Shpongle (never heard anything quite like this....whoa)
The Beta Band (nice Gomez/Zero 7-sounding band...only with a bit of a Dust Brothers influence)
Martine Topley-Bird (great singer, known for being on the early Tricky records...her solo work is better)
Presidents Of The United States (really fun to listen to)

Happymeal 01-02-2005 08:31 PM

Fugazi, Lifetime, BOTAR and The Beach Boys
