YDload 07-16-2007 10:46 PM

you're not a Pixies fan if you don't like Surfer Rosa at all.

Apocalyptic Raids 07-16-2007 11:35 PM

I prefer Surfer, though I've spent a lot more time with it than any other Pixies release.

Thanks 07-16-2007 11:51 PM

Surfer Rosa has better songs, and the good songs on Doolittle are done a disservice by its cold, dead mix.

If Albini was on Doolittle it would be a fairer race, but Surfer would still win.

I'm listening to The Lone Gunman by Idaho. I like them except when they try to do trip-hop.


If you haven't heard Codeine get up on that [B]s[/B]hit right now.

sexymuffin 07-17-2007 01:09 AM

Anxious 07-17-2007 01:17 AM

The other album I have by them is [I]Three Sheets to the Wind[/I].Haven't listened to it yet. I'll probably get the one you posted.

The Lone Gunman is the first one that I got :/

I'll give you a link

sexymuffin 07-17-2007 01:39 AM

anxious: three sheets to the wind has some classic songs on it and is more accessible because of its rock-ish feel

hearts of palm is a lot more chilled out and overall superior tbh

purple: thanks a lot

Boris - [I]Pink[/I] - This is first album to really grip me in a while.
The Birthday Party - [I]Junkyard[/I]

Anxious 07-17-2007 08:19 AM

Perry Leopold-[I]Christian Lucifer[/I]

70's acid-folk with an excellent singer. Almost all of the songs use minor chords so its depressive, but with great melodies. Apparently this never got released in the 70's, and someone found the tapes in 2002 and remastered it and released it. Consequently the recording quality is very good.

Tom Waits- [I]Alice[/I]

Favorite Waits album.

[QUOTE=YDload;14988956]thank you br3ad

also tonite i downloaded Naked Raygun's "All Rise" album. apparently its their best one so i'm glad i got it![/QUOTE]

Ha, I downloaded Throb Throb off of iTunes last night (I had a giftcard). Really awesome band from what I've heard so far.

:eek:

I just bought that today! I prefer the Noise Rock/Punk aspect of it to the Drone Metal side of things. It gets a bit much after a while as well, after about 5 tracks my head feels like its gonna explode. Thats probably the point of it though!

Yeah I know what you mean, I have to listen to it in stages with other songs or albums in between because I get the same feeling. The album title track is one of the best, that was the one I listened to first and it almost blew me out of my seat.

Only album I've heard by Boris, I'm not really sure which to get next, although I'll definitely be getting more of their material.

Yo La Tengo - [i]Painful[/i]
Clap Your Hands, Say Yeah - [i]Some Loud Thunder[/i]
Regina Spektor - [i]Soviet Kitsch[/i]

[i]Painful[/i] is such a great CD and [i]Some Loud Thunder[/i] surprises me every time I listen to it.

What is [I]Painful[/I] like compared to [I]I Can Hear The Heart Beating As One[/I] & [I]I Am Not Afraid...[/I]? They are the only two Yo La Tengo albums I've heard but they are quickly becoming one of my favourite bands.

As for the Clap Your Hands album, would you consider it better then their self titled because I could only listen to about 3 songs before it made me want to turn it off.

Kyle 07-17-2007 02:43 PM

I thought Some Loud Thunder was piss weak at first and then I realised I just don't really like the CYHSY. I always liked the song [I]Is This Love?[/I] for some reason, though.

Today have been listening to Minor Threat and Architecture in Helsinki which somehow go together quite well.

It's probably just as good, I'll be able to tell with another listen or two. I like [i]Some Loud Thunder[/i] better than Clap Your Hand's debut, but I've heard a lot of people say differently. There's a lot of cool songs on it.

Sweet, I'll have to download [I]Painful[/I] at some point then. I'll maybe give Clap Your Hands self titled another go and see if I like it because it was a while ago since I gave it a listen. Either that or download the new album.#

Thanks for your advice. :thumb:
