[quote="RonBurgundy"][quote=Shimmering Wang][quote=thrope]i know who edan is also!!!!

i've been listening to some eminem and springsteen today[/quote]

Oh man, Eminem and Springsteen. What an awesomely sweet combo.

I've put off listening to Animal Collective's "Feels" a lot until today, because I thought Sung Tongs was almost perfect.

So I think today I might give it a whirl. Also, I woke up this morning (330PM) with the dire and insatiable need for The Dismemberment Plan.

I think the lineup's gonna be something like this:

Dismemberment Plan- Change
Animal Collective- Feels
Dismemberment Plan- Emergency & I
???????????

Wang[/quote]

Black Keys- Thickfreakness
The Unicorns- Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone?
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah- Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Gorillaz- Gorillaz

Are you from T.O. Cause I swear my buddy works with an ex member of that group.

Check out the Artic Monekys if you like the Unicorns

Death from Above 1979 and Wolf Parade are two great groups everyone should check out

Love them both.

check out the Mater Kraft (not the correct spelling) I think it may be spelt
MSTKRFT

its the drummer from DFA remixing a whole bunch of songs

Yes, I totally agree with you, only I wasn't the one who posted that in which you are quoting. I believe Don Giovanni is. I bought a copy of Loveless back in `97.

I Loveless.

Radiohead- The Bends----------->Hail to the Thief

Gotta do it at least once every few weeks. I usually include "True Love Waits", too, and sometimes a B-side compilation.

and now its
Dungen-Ta Det Lungt

i have no idea where theyre from, what language theyre speaking, or what it means. but i like it.

now its
pink floyd-dark side of the moon
how do i always forget how good this record is.

Any Philip Jeck fans out there? I've been on a bit of a binge lately.

Never heard the music, but I have a friend who has mentioned him before. It's kind of ambient music, isn't it? How would you describe it?

Album of the Day: Paul Simon - There Goes Rhymin' Simon

Great album....has a couple classic singles on it, and my favorite Paul Simon song, "Learn How To Fall". Highly recommended album.

He's an avant-garde turntablist by trade, but a lot of his more recent stuff could indeed be described as ambient electronica. He always achieves some amazingly unique soundscapes with sampling and turntables.

He became famous in arty circles for his 1993 Vinyl Requiem performance, in which he utilized 180 turntables and a bunch of projectors. It's still talked about as one of the most compelling live art performances ever.

Highly recommended if you're feeling adventurous.

So today in school, I was listening to Sister from Sonic Youth and my friend walks by and looks at my iPod and says "Sonic Youth sucks." Being the music elitist I think I am my first response is to make him feel dumb. Instead, I asked him why he thinks this way. He says "they're so unoriginal, so many bands today sound like them, they need to come up with their own style of music." I chuckled and have been listening to them ever since.

Right now, Daydream Nation. Fucking amazing.

Daydream Nation is the only Sonic Youth album I own. I was never a huge fan, but I do really like that album, and give the band tons of respect. Sounds like your friend, like 95% of people out there, don't know much about music.

Interesting. I am always in the mood to try something new, so I will check it out. Thanks for the info

heres to you - the life aquatic (best movie ever) official soundtrack

sounds like church music but i like it for some reason.

dredg- catch without arms

AMAZING album.

also, The Mars Volta- Deloused in the Comatorium

..that one should speak for itself

dane cook- retaliation.

one very funny comedian.

Oh God. Am I really about to say this?



I agree.

This and Dane's first CD (Harmful if Swallowed) are must owns. They are priceless.

Album of the Day: Slightly Stoopid - Everything You Need

If you are a fan of Sublime, you will definitely enjoy Slightly Stoopid. SS is signed on Skunk records, which was Sublime's label. While this album is far from deep or thought-provoking, it is a solid listen, and even includes a great cover of John Denver's "Leavin' on a Jet Plane". I got to see Slightly Stoopid live in college (only 100 people or so at the show). Afterwards I got to puff with the band and talk to them for a little bit....they are solid live. Check it out if you haven't heard it.

If you're a Sublime fan, also check out Pepper. They basically are Sublime with different people, but the music is still great.

Slightly Stoopid is +EV. I saw them play here in the DM down by the river, 10k people or so..good times.

My album of the day is ..

Seven's Travels, by Atmosphere

A white midwestern Mos Def with a goofier sense of humor but unafraid to offer up social commentary. Stunningly accurate views on life, love and the pain and drama in the life of the average American male.

Well, since its 7:30 am in NY, I guess my album of the day applies to today, even though I haven't slept since 2 nights ago.

Nonetheless, as I said earlier,
Album of the day- Jan 20, 2006: Pharoahe Monch "Internal Affairs"

So you're in Des Moines? That's where I was born....spent a good chunk of my childhood in Iowa City as well. Seven's Travels is also a good album. Definitely better than 98% or more of the rap that they play on the radio or on MTV.

Yup..Been an Iowan since I was Seven. Spent plenty of drunken nights in Iowa City.

Agreed on Seven's Travels being superior to most radio rap.

Me too, and I moved when I was 14.....but anyway, check out God Loves Ugly by Atmosphere as well. Another great album.

Yup, own it.

Atmosphere makes me smile.

Pigface's Fook currently on Ten Ground and Down. I love Lesley Rankin's voice. Next Silverfish's Organ Fan.

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole- Somwhere over the rainbow & its a wonderful world.

Modest Mouse- The Moon And Antartica
The Decemberists- Castaways And Cutouts
????????????


i dl'ed some arctic monkeys, thanks for the recommendation.

For some reason I thought it necessary to mention that windows media player has selected Piano Man at random. This is Billy Joel's best song by far, it is sweet.

Meh, that song is so overplayed, I can almost not listen to it. I grew up a Billy Joel fan, so I like a lot of his stuff. I think seeing this post has encouraged me to throw on Innocent Man this afternoon.

With that lineup, I'd move on to

Sufjan Stevens- Greeting from Michigan, the Great Lakes State!

or

The Futureheads- The Futureheads

or

Fiery Furnaces- Blueberry Boat

Wang

Of course, out of pure tribute, it's going to be a Wilson Pickett evening.

NH!

I'm glad I inspired some one to do something. I have also just started listening to Neil Young's latest album "Prairie Wind" specifically, "No Wonder," it is an awesome song

I can't listen to Billy Joel at all, his music makes me want to poke my eyes out, seriously

i like your avatar, i saw that poster somewhere.

and since your the resident jazz expert, what do you think of clifford brown? ive been listening to him a lot lately. i think hes easily my second favorite trumpeter (behind miles of course), too bad he died so early.

Clifford and Miles are both over rated. Best jazz trumpeter to ever walk the earth was Mr. John Birks "Dizzy" Gillespie.

i respect him and his influence, but i cant get into his music as much as the others.

So I guess you are more of a Hard Bop or maybe Cool / West Coast Jazz type of guy.

Check out this guy named Terrel Stafford. I played with him a few years ago and the guy is absolutely burning. He lives out in the east coast, and has a few recordings out.

Who else do you like?

Bloc Party- Banquet
Flaming Lips- Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots
?????????

Common - Be

Fantastic.

Previous Song: "Linkin Park - Forgotten"
Current Song: "Weezer - Hash Pipe"

Anybody else listen to classical music on here?
