 | Kiran ha, yeah, i hear you. i come here to rate things every once in a while, it's like a mental clearance exercise
|
 | porch been alternately upping the punx and looking for a new apartment. spotted your dreampop list on unrest's page and realized i hadn't seen you post on here in a long time
|
 | klap bombastic is negative bro
|
| klap you seriously calling my maudlin career pompous and overblown?!
|
| klap i put up like 75 threes last week nbd
|
| klap bro my team is better than yours
|
| klap it's average obvie not as good as the debut
|
| klap saw Free Energy on Friday they are amazing live i didn't even mind the new stuff. also sorry about beating you bebe
|
| Kiran http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cqU1pFRqYE
|
| klap hey man do you like clinic? just getting into them i dig it. new album is pretty good too
|
 | aok sputnik fantasy basketball league?
|
 | Vidalini Hey dude do you somehow have "Tall Ships - Everything Touching", can you share it?
|
| Kiran i've listened to 'survival tactics' every day for a month
|
| Kiran how sick is this joey bada$$ kid, eh?!
|
| klap yeah i love how minimal the production is yet her voice still makes everything seem so full
|
| klap ugh dude i was supposed to review it last week but didnt have time and was in vegas for the weekend and working so trying to write something tonight but if not now then by the weekend fo sho....its really good obvie
|
| klap what do you think of the new hot chip
|
 | robin who will pay the rent? you're probably right and will be shown to be in a couple of weeks :)
|
 | Inveigh homie you need to check out the new killer mike asap
|
| Inveigh i know you're gonna hate me for this, but i kinda like kobe...
|
| Inveigh word man, losing to hated rivals is the worst
|
| Inveigh Westbrook bothers me, but I do love the rest of that team. Not sure if they're ready to go all the way yet though... I would not be totally shocked if we end up with Lakers-Celtics this year, which would be nutty
|
| Inveigh nah just listened to some 3EB and it put things in perspective. on the bright side if my Bullies fall as expected in the next few weeks, I'll be rooting for your Celts to come out of the east
|
| Inveigh i'm still not one hundred percent certain i won't be killing myself today
|
| Inveigh word yea Cheers was/is the bomb
|
| Inveigh oh man I hope so... I think the Heat having to go through the Knicks and likely the Pacers before the ECF is a great thing for whoever meets them there. on another note, you peep the new Obie Trice yet? it's pretty great and stuff..
|
| Inveigh nice win over the heat tonight son! see y'all in the second round...
|
 | MalleusMaleficarum excuse me sir, do you think you could provide me with a link to that 2012 Beach House album? would be greatly appreciated...
|
| porch sweet. yeah it's a cool album, something about it always hooks me in
|
| klap annoyed that i beat you in overall points yet yahoo's not using that as the tiebreaker? ugh guess i have to beat andy again...
|
 | qwe3 yeah man for sure ill make a list u make a list :D:D:D
|
| aok next to amber and tri-repetae it's just boring mann
|
 | Yotimi ha, yeah just started getting into them. And right back at ya Yeti
|
| Inveigh then it was a vote well spent! idk about deron, the fact that the Nets are at least semi-competitive is a testament to his awesomeness. Melo's another one that shouldn't be on the team...
|
| Inveigh to be fair they should probably take off either Iguodala or Joe Johnson for Rondo -- neither of those guys makes the all star game fun. Rondo at the very least brings the fun in spades.
|
| Inveigh earning that all-star bid son!
|
| Inveigh ****ing mother****er goddamn BACK SPASMS
|
| Inveigh hopefully NOT! in the words of my favorite Bulls blog: F*ck Rondo. lol but seriously I sometimes forget how good he can be when he's dialed in.
|
| Inveigh I know dude, like, what the f*ck. Rondo played fantastic.
|
| Inveigh hey man those pacers are a bunch of thugs and goons always trying to hurt d-rose and shiiiit. super bowl should be interesting for sure, if I was betting i'd go Pats
|
| Inveigh true, I wasn't thinking of that from the perspective of a Celtics fan haha
|
| Inveigh most definitely, those teams will fade in the playoffs against teams that have stars (with playoff experience) like Bulls, Heat Celts, Lakers etc. What I'm hoping for is (if the Bulls don't get him) that Dwight gets traded to the Nets at the deadline, and they surge to make the playoffs as an 8 seed, so the Heat finally lock up the 1 seed and end up playing Dwight and DWill in the first round lol
|
| Inveigh nice, yeah I haven't been jamming too much new stuff either. older music is fun too yo
|
| Inveigh hah! I need to start paying more attention to that league. Nice win over the Magic last night dude. any new tunes catch your ear lately?
|
| porch ehh yeah as much as i hate to make you a deceasedyeti m83 didn't really do anything for me :( just got into gary wilson pretty recently myself actually, it's interesting stuff at the very least. feel free to throw a couple of recs my way
|
| klap YOU DONT KNOW ME
|
| porch p much the same here, just about to watch blade runner in a sec. got the usual college/work stuff keeping me busy and my birthday's comin up in a couple days so that should be cool. as for recs, give these a go: gary wilson - forgotten lovers, total control - henge beat, for against - echelons
|
| porch whats good mr. yeti
|
 | BigHans yeah me and Mike Allen have been jizzing all over that record.
|
| BigHans jam this or die: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fi-a5OktorM
|
| Inveigh daaaaaamn son! wish I had been able to make the draft... still pretty happy with my team though. wish I had D-Rose.. : (
|
 | Deviant. Oh right. I'm convinced that someone is just logging into my account and rating albums at random haha
|
| Inveigh sounds badass yo. idk how much longer i'm gonna stick around at work today. might just up and leave. or at least make a beer run.
|
| Inveigh i'm all about them popular opinions and such. today's the worst day at work ever. wish i was high and/or drunk or something.
|
| Deviant. You just completely lost me with that 4.7
|
| Inveigh really? Thursday is a much tougher for me to get through compared with House of Balloons. hard to tell if the new one's going to stick or not I guess. opening track on Thursday is my favorite song from him overall though.
|
| Inveigh lol i'm the Noah Kim Joas DOG. in my other league i'm Rose Colored Goggles. holla. you liking the new Weeknd? i like it better than Thursday so far.
|
| Inveigh lol agitated frosties. can you guess which team is me?
|
| Inveigh yeah I'll definitely have to check it out. currently just sippin on some Stone IPA and watching Bad Santa on and off. have you heard Dela yet?
|
| Inveigh yeah I just set my draft list, idk if I can make it on Saturday either. haven't heard Drake's new one, but I keep hearing I need to check it out. Been jamming Danny Brown, MED, Domo Genesis and Dela non-stop this week. New Weeknd is pretty cool too.
|
| Inveigh hell yeahhhhh man. you should join aokuneff's league too yo. I couldn't get that into XXX on first listen, liked his collab with Black Milk though. I'll give it another shot.
|
| aok fantast basketball? http://i.imgur.com/FQ0Jn.jpg league id: 117053 . password: mezzanine . league name: sputnik2k12
|
| Inveigh it's very possible I just didn't give it a fair shake. pretty sure I only listened to it like 1 and a half times... that Phonte is ridiculous though!
|
 | chambered89 yeah man might be takin a trip out to vegas with the pops should be fun
|
 | Blindsided Would you be interested in writing reviews for another site?
|
| Deviant. King Midas Sound remixed - http://www.filesonic.co.nz/file/2862671805/KMSWY.rar
|
| Deviant. Thanks man, need to get you your stripes now
|
 | Sowing haha yeah the name change confused a lot of people, but I was asked to do so when I became staff so I did as I was told. and thanks, hi5!
|
| Deviant. Oh you sassy thing you. Check out Torrid Affairs by a guy called Clueless. More of the same
|
| klap yeah that was my favorite too
|
| klap yeah ok this male bonding record is pretty decent
|
| klap turnover anomaly. your feigned disappointment is noted
|
| Inveigh I wasn't crazy about it at first, but it grew on me after a few listens. still, I gotta be in the right mood to enjoy it, na'mean? ok, two more 2011 hip hop rekidz for ya: Astronote - Weapon of the Future and The Cool Kids - When Fish Ride Bicycles. I was especially surprised by how good that Cool Kids disc was. what'd you think of Shabazz?
|
| Inveigh word, have you checked out Kendrick Lamar? his album from this year is really good. The Game's new one's pretty cool too.
|
| klap hey man have you heard the mister heavenly album? nick diamonds new thing. its surprisingly legit
|
| Inveigh yessss I was hoping I'd get to feel like a grownup before I hit 30. before you know it I'll be yelling at kids to stay off said lawn. when's the next Yeti review coming? I still can't get enough of Returnof4eva
|
| Inveigh word, yeah it's good stuff. same old same old on this end man, working. getting married this Sunday though, so I'll have a nice week and a half away from the office (in Puerto Rico no less) coming up soon.
|
| Inveigh lol. you should check out that Grimes album if you haven't yet, seems like something you might dig. how's life homie?
|
 | wabbit you got power back get sputniking more
|
| chambered89 so glad you like New Brigade! the ratings are insanely low!
|
 | robertsona http://www.mediafire.com/?61pdenhn60xq4mf
|
| robertsona i dont even know if youre into this type of stuff but we have a pretty good batting average with recs so http://www.sputnikmusic.com/soundoff.php?albumid=46616
|
 | Baphomet You know I'm just teasing... though I don't actually enjoy punk. And hell yeah I'm ready for the match. I don't care that much for the actual title but beating barcelona would be great and I think tonight we can take Camp Nou.
|
| Baphomet Ha! Nice try but TS is not actual punk anymore ever since Darkness oh Hell!
|
| Kiran that new girls record leaked itself all over the intertubes
|
| Baphomet Hair metal is a close third (reggaeton being second) but punk takes the cake. A trained monkey could play it... and not even a talented trained monkey, just a regular monkey.
|
| Baphomet Hey! I resent that you ****tard! I don't care for being called after the crappiest genre ever!
|
 | Polymath Why are you aggravated AND a yeti?
|
| Kiran that damn plainclothes fix is lurking around somewhere on the interwebs, i'll find that little bastard
|
| klap if i had to pick between those 3 it'd be the bucs bc they won the super bowl when i was in middle school and their team now is pretty exciting....but i'm a falcons fan ever since i played madden way back in the day and vick was awesome. Go Matty Ice
|
| Kiran yeah the little dragon record is groovy, i like it
|
| Kiran cymbals eat guitars leaked OMG
|
| Deviant. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=U3J0BRKA
|
| Baphomet Witch House? I swear man, whoever comes up with these genre names is on crack. It was a 3 before but I gave it a through listen while studying and it grew on me.
|
| wabbit Remember when you and Mike wrote reviews?
|
| Yotimi one of my favorite rap albums ever
|
 | Gyromania I always have good albums to recommend, and if you'd like I could gladly suggest a handful, just IM me: Eeriatarkaa, or add me to FB.
|
| Gyromania Good stuff. I've been up and down recently. I'm recovering from a bad breakup at the moment, but I just recently landed a position as a counselor at the Aids Committee of Windsor, so that's a plus. Other than that I've been absent on here recently as well, but I just posted a review last night and I'm going to try (keyword) to write a review every other day from now on, even if some of them are less than impressive, just so I can kind of get back in the swing of things.
|
| Gyromania I don't see you around here as often these days. What have you been up to?
|
| klap S"UMMERTEETH ONLY A 4?!?!?!
|
| klap in vegas right now asshole seeing diplo tonight don't bring me down. pj didnt really do anything for me this time but ill listen again later.
|
| wabbit I've heard like all of those man...I'll ask robin or kiran or conrad And ya I'm going but probs just saturday and sunday. Line-up is still alright but we got spoiled last year
|
| klap what are your recs, i have yet to find this year's free energy/serena maneesh...
|
| klap this new horrors album is pretty good
|
| klap obviously i'm down. although we'll have to see if there's gonna be a football/basketball season...
|
| wabbit what's good that I haven't heard this year? Also you coming to Osheaga?
|
| robin a second g-side record this year? ye-es.
|
| Deviant. http://www.filesonic.com/file/1141766274/SoRr.rar - thank me later
|
 | plane when have i ever :*
|
| plane I'll get to Gang Gang Dance... eventually
|
| Inveigh yeah definitely get it, it's worth it. that Big KRIT's fantastic, perfect summer hip hop album. for me, it's like this year's Sir Lucious Left Foot, which is awesome.
|
| Inveigh word, yeah my buddy Gooze just joined that group awhile back on keys, he's touring with them on Warped right now. he used to play in band from my college town that I played a couple shows with, eventually I ended up in a hip hop group with the singer of that band. this Big KRIT is dope!
|
| Inveigh lol YES that was so gratifying. plus I loved how Lebron played the "i am richer than all you 'regular people'" card after he lost... yeah, love the Tune-Yards, haven't delved as deep into that F*cked Up record as I need to, but I like it. been meaning to get on that Big KRIT for awhile too... btw that Submotion Orchestra album is worth the hype. side note -- you ever heard of a band called Pass A Fire while you were in Savannah?
|
| Polymath Listened to some some songs on a stream. Loving it
|
| Polymath YEAH! I'm actually excited to listen to this album, I'll give you the verdict on it soon. If you ever come across any other awesome music feel free to rec me whenever man!
|
| Inveigh sh*t man sounds like a good time. and yeah, everything's cool on my end, thanks for the congrats. as for records... I doubt I've heard something you haven't, but been digging the new tune-yards and wu lyf records, bout to get on this Submotion Orchestra everyone's talking about. anything I should check out?
|
| Inveigh lol I was rarely on Sputnik for about a month... not really intentionally, just got super busy at work, getting married soon, was in a car accident, had wisdom teeth pulled and was just never online. but things are rounding out to normal here soon.. what's new homie?
|
| klap i had it at a 4 first and then i was like hey wait a second
|
| Polymath Never heard of them. What are they like? The more good music in my life the better.
|
| Polymath I don't even know man, let's talk about how s***ty summer is when you've got nothing to do on a nice day outside. And then let's talk about how MPP is the best thing ever. I don't know much about Eno, I'm assuming he's chill knowing the fact that he's a neighbor.
|
| Polymath Dude you're the only good neighbor I have. Wanna talk or something? That'd be pretty awesome.
|
| Baphomet Damm! But I kept the receipt and everything! And yeah... I knew sooner or later that rating would get me in trouble. It's not bad by any means... but it's soooo boring... I really can't see the genious behind it. But I really like the nw Gang Gang Dance!
|
| Baphomet You look nothing like an Yeti, much less like an aggravated one. I want my money back!
|
| Baphomet Haha you were pretty much the only sputbro I didn't have added there.
|
| Baphomet You are God's hairy gift to men. Question: do you have a facebook?
|
| Baphomet I swear I've been searching for a week now and I can't find a working link for Gang Gang Dance anywhere!
|
| robin :) yeah i love it, can't stop playing it. it made me check out blackalicious too, great find. but the mixtape itself comforts me in a big way. do you mean priceless as in funny or as in you like it?
|
| Deviant. No probs, to me he kinda sounds like what Burial would be like if he cleaned his production up a little. Speaking of Burial, get The Invisible Insurrection by Desolate. You also need Cold Hearted by Cosmic Revenge (more garage) and download the 4 tracks here - http://soundcloud.com/knut2010/sets/ditc - they're wav so they're about 100mb each but you can just convert them
|
| wabbit I actually think I am cheering for Boston because if they win it means montreal should have won.
|
| wabbit alright lets get it started. And they are all 5's...so.
|
 | alachlahol awesome. i consider all three Cursed albums to be of equal quality. it's a real shame they had to disband when they did
|
| alachlahol no prob. let me know if you like anything you hear
|
| alachlahol powerviolence: Bucket Full Of Teeth - IV, Dropdead - 2nd LP, Weekend Nachos - Unforgivable
|
| alachlahol crust: Discharge - Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing, Dystopia - Human = Garbage, His Hero Is Gone - Monuments To Thieves
|
| alachlahol three from each genre, hardcore: Cursed - I, Cult Ritual - Cult Ritual, Pulling Teeth - Martyr Immortal
|
| Kiran desperately trying to be successful at life
|
| alachlahol you looking for any kind of sound in particular? do you want stuff that's accessible? emotional (screamo)? hateful?
|
| alachlahol http://stereogum.com/698421/washed-out-within-and-without-premature-evaluation/franchises/premature-evaluation/
|
| Kiran 40 just in the league, ****ing incredible
|
| Baphomet I'm serious. Love it. And it's sweet how you lie conscidering I only have like 3 posts but thanks :'D
|
| Baphomet OMG it's like my fav blog ever!
|
| Baphomet Is that trust me I'm a doctor blog yours?
|
| Kiran trying to review it but ive forgotten how to write properly :S
|
| Kiran couldnt hold back! the floodgates have opened!
|
| Kiran never rating another album. :|
|
| Yotimi liked that Cardigans album a lot - even the Iron Man cover :)
|
| robin tvotr all day every day : )
|
 | lancebramsay The original was thrown away, they thought it was junk. Of course its an easy piece to replicate so no worries there. I think dadaism and bauhaus are the two most influential/important art movements in modern history.
|
| lancebramsay R Mutt - possibly the greatest piece of art ever created...? maybe not, but it was certainly mind expanding
|
| lancebramsay Thanks for mentioning dadaism on conrads list - that movement was pure genius and helped define the modern definition of art
|
| Deviant. Me thinks only half your message got though
|
| lancebramsay Everything you said is right. It does vary from artist to artist though. I just didnt enjoy any aspect of franks songwriting which in turn really killed the album for me.As far as taking it out of context, unfortunately I cant put up the lyrics to the whole song. I also realize I was a bit rough on the album - sorry to offend you. It is my opinion on the matter though, hope you understand.
|
| lancebramsay Yea... Too bad I guess. I do appreciate me some shoegaze though. You heard the new Raveonettes album?
|
| lancebramsay Hey, just wanted to stop by and add a bit about the use of rhyming in music. Rhyming makes music catchy, therefore more memorable. It's fine if you don't rhyme but the lyrics need to have substance or at least spur some thinking. Frank does touch on some pretty serious issues such as his father on "There Will Be Tears" I just don't appreciate how blunt - and immature - his lyrics come off as.
|
| robin shout out louds are back in for summer.
|
 | TheItalianStallion It's already a known fact that Howard will either stay in Orlando or go to LA. He doesn't like cold weather. He's already said that. He's not going to Boston.
|
| TheItalianStallion Us Heat fans might as well just leave the broom out of the closet after the first round, because your Celtics will get SWEPT
|
| TheItalianStallion Lol, that's what I was going for. At least you're honest enough to admit that, unlike most stoners who just think of something being said like that as a downer(see Gyro's last comment).
|
| TheItalianStallion Lol, but see, why only tell me to go read a book? Why not Eno, who's basically doing the same thing?
|
| TheItalianStallion If your C's play this way in the next round, the Heat will make quick work of them
|
| alachlahol no, not a sixers fan. i'm one of those cliched idiots who doesn't pay much attention to the NBA until the playoffs roll around. especially this year, i haven't followed the season at all
|
| alachlahol hopefully hes not able to maintain that momentum when the rest of the knicks decide to start playing, he almost took you out single-handedly last night
|
| wabbit if you get a chance could you send a link to tune-yards on facebook?
|
| Baphomet Gonna post Eraser as the track of the day. So flippin good.
|
| Baphomet Who are you calling nerdface, you walking carpet?! haha I swear I'm going to write today... the uni has been consuming my life but I'm kinda free today.
|
 | DaveyBoy Sorry Yeti. My opening sentence on the review of their newie will be concerning how divisive they are. There is not much middle ground with them. BTW, what do you think of their newie. Too safe, or a nice change in direction.
|
| Kiran way better than debut, its got SPARK
|
| Kiran blog prefab sprout for me so i remember!
|
