Ignore previous post, pure madness it is.

Brainiac doesn't translate to Lightning Bolt. How'd you figure that one MAK?

not similar style, but the uncontrollable insanity of each others music, at least that's how i hear it.

I love Lightning Bolt, but I have to admit, that was hilarious.

Between The Buried and Me are like, the best band ever.

I'm finally digging Pavement, after years of non-diggage. Their music never really appealed to me, but I've been listening to [I]Slanted & Enchanted[/I] lately, and it's a great album. So uh, hooray for Pavement.

Interstate 01-08-2005 09:19 AM

lately i've been listening to:
Elliott Smith
Cab Calloway
Ben Folds
Morrissey
Oasis

Two words: William Shatner.

This week I have been mostly digging X Japan's Art Of Life. It's a 29-minute long song with some awesome instrumentals (including a fantastic 6-minute piano solo), and it's one of the few completely English lyrics they ever wrote. The drumming is immense too, and the guitar work ain't slackin'.

I'm gonna write a review of it today.

Tomahawk 01-08-2005 10:31 AM

Right now I'm digging Explosions in the Sky... I'm not really familiar with this type of music, even though I've heard heaps of good stuff about it. So I decided to check out [I]Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place[/I], and f[SIZE=2]u[/SIZE]ckd[SIZE=2]a[/SIZE]mn it's a good album!

I did get a little bored during some bits, but for the most part it's really good.

Excellent.

Today (all three hours of it I've been awake) I've been digging Bjork, mostly Homogenic and Medulla (which was rescued from the CD player earlier today).

[QUOTE=xXxoneofdeathxXx]anyone like MSI(MINDLESS SELF INDULGENCE)[/QUOTE]

They are a fun band in small doses. Nothing more nothing less.

br3ad_man 01-08-2005 08:10 PM

Next Exit is my favourite song off Antics. It's good stuff.

Luxor 01-08-2005 10:04 PM

I've started listening to Cursive again. I forgot how awesome they were.

I've just got 'The World Is Not A Cold Dead Place' by Explosions In The Sky

its the first time i've heard any of their music. I listened to it last night on my walkman in the dark in bed at 1:30am.

two words: HOLY CRAP!!!

since then i've been listenin to EiTS all day and plan on buying another of their albums and maybe getting a G!YBE album. Don't know which one to get though.

Tomahawk 01-09-2005 07:38 AM

^Hey, that's exactly the same as me! omg twinz

Yeah. I've basically just listened to that EitS album today. It's been a while since I've connected with an album as much as I have with this one.

Also I've been listening to the song [I]Safe From Harm[/I] by Massive Attack. A lot.

The Ashtray Girl 01-09-2005 08:39 AM

I've been listening to the song Protection a lot. Maybe it's time I got some Everything But The Girl in my life.

'The World Is Not A Cold Dead Place' was my introduction to post rock. And its all thanks to this forum otherwise I would have never heard of them. I'm pondering over what other post rock albums to get. I've heard alot of good things from Godspeed You Black Emperor!, Mogwai, Do Say Make Think, Sigur Ros etc. etc Any recommendations?

Iai 01-09-2005 05:21 PM

Gddspeed is the logical step after EiTS. It's just the way things are done.

Luxor 01-09-2005 07:11 PM

I like Explosions more than Godspeed.

GSYBE! is alot more random noises and computers. They're good, but sometimes I get bored with them really easily.

Cursive > all other bands not called Hot Snakes & QOTSA.

[QUOTE=Iai]Gddspeed is the logical step after EiTS. It's just the way things are done.[/QUOTE]

i went in reverse (which is the correct way, honestly), cause without Godspeed i probably would never have liked EiTS.

Godspeed is more story driven in their epic songs. EiTS follows a more straightforward approach to like a "short" poem.

Tangy zizzle 01-09-2005 10:23 PM

Post rock = overrated.
