Listened to [I]Abbatoir Blues [/I] a couple times today. So good.

Luxor 01-18-2005 09:51 PM

Today I've listened to:

Sum 41 - Chuck
Modest Mouse - The Lonesome Crowded West
TV On The Radio - Young Liars EP
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
Neil Young - Freedom
Pedro The Lion - Control
Coheed & Cambria - IKSOSE:3

Holy crap, that's a lot... I don't have a life.

[QUOTE=IhateUsernames]Lately I've been listening to a lot of [i]Beastie Boys, Jurassic 5, Sigur Ros[/i] and [i]At The Drive-In.[/i]

The [i]Beastie Boys[/i] are probably my favourite rap/hip hop group of all time.[/QUOTE]

I've been trying to get into Sigur Ros for a while. Which songs are their best? The longer it takes me to get into a band, the better it is usually.

[QUOTE=Happymeal]They're Japanese right? What they sound like?[/QUOTE]
It's been called the Japanese OK Computer. I can definitely see why, though it's slightly unfair. It's a very diverse album. Really good stuff.

Tomahawk 01-19-2005 06:48 AM

L'arc En Ciel? OK Computer?

They must have changed a LOT... because the songs I've heard were [I]extremely[/I] cheesy. Catchy though. Actually, the only song I can really remember of theirs was called [I]Driver's High[/I].

Good to start you off, anyway, I'm sure people can suggest more.

Radiohead- Street Spirit (Fade Out)

Wow, it's better than any song on OK Computer, in my opinion.

The Ashtray Girl 01-19-2005 03:44 PM

It's better than any song, ever, I think anyways.

I'm really loving Hail To The Thief today.

pinkyeti 01-19-2005 03:54 PM

lately, I've been digging a lot of M.I.A.
also:
Ratatat
the Weakerthans
the Walkmen
the Go! team

vallely2004 01-19-2005 04:29 PM

This week I have been mostly diggin' The Mooney Suzuki

Tangy zizzle 01-19-2005 04:31 PM

Malcolm Mooney + Damo Suzuki = the Mooney Suzuki.

Tangy zizzle 01-19-2005 04:32 PM

I've been listening to a Suede album today.

It's either called "Nude" or just "Suede". I think it's self titled, but anyhoo.... These guys are rather nice.

The Ashtray Girl 01-19-2005 04:45 PM

[QUOTE=vallely2004]This week I have been mostly diggin' The Mooney Suzuki[/QUOTE]

ATM 01-19-2005 04:48 PM

I just discovered Explosions in the Sky. Very relaxing.

Tangy zizzle 01-19-2005 04:52 PM

Oi, you Mooney Suzuki fans.

I've never listened to them, do they sound like their name suggests?

vallely2004 01-19-2005 04:54 PM

[QUOTE=Tangy zizzle]Oi, you Mooney Suzuki fans.

Sorry i don't really know Malcolm Mooney + Damo Suzuki. But If you want to check TMS out try the songs 'Alive and Amplified' (their new single) and 'In a Young Man's Mind'. 2 very good songs.

Tangy zizzle 01-19-2005 04:56 PM

They took their name from the surnames of the first 2 singers from Can.

Do they sound like Can?

Cursive - Such Blinding Stars For Starving Eyes

[QUOTE=pinkyeti]the Go! team[/QUOTE]

for this i give you stars.

i love them.

el doctor 01-19-2005 06:54 PM

[QUOTE=Tangy zizzle]They took their name from the surnames of the first 2 singers from Can.

Do they sound like Can?[/QUOTE]Well, considering Can are a timeless, classic, genre-bending kraut rock band, and the Mooney Suzuki are a garage rock/punk act riding the wave of current trends, I'm gonna go ahead and reply with a big "no".

There's a slight Can influence in their music, but I definitely can't say they sound like them.

Tangy zizzle 01-19-2005 07:00 PM

Well I've never listened to them before and seeing as though they have a f[I]u[/I]cken shrine as their name, I thought they'd be like a poor imitation.

Noone asked for a life story grandpa.

Happymeal 01-19-2005 07:45 PM

[I]Before the Dawn Heals Us[/I] by M83 is class. Can't compare it with their other albums yet though.

br3ad_man 01-19-2005 08:19 PM

It's different from their other two and it's really good.

[size=7]Check out my FA of them in Other Music[/size]

jacksloadedgun 01-19-2005 08:27 PM

The Beatles...
-Sgt. Peppers
-The White Album
-Abbey Road

got Sgt. Peppers for x-mas and really started listening to it a couple days ago and well now i can't stop.

NineBitFable 01-19-2005 09:49 PM

Actually, I've been listening to some of my Offspring albums, (The band that got me into music... Ah, good times) and of course, Sonic Youth, which forever seems stuck on my playlist.

Tapeworm 01-19-2005 10:04 PM

Finally getting into Built To Spill again.

br3ad_man 01-20-2005 02:53 AM

I'm rocking out to Tomahawk. "Captain Midnight" is such a cool song.
