awesome.

loefah is really sweet too if you want to check out more dubstep.

Kero One

Try as I may, I still can't get into Modest Mouse. I don't get it; they seem -- bland, to me.

But, one song is stuck in my head: Perfect Disguise. That song is awesome, and keeps playing, over and over.

Listen to the song "Heart Cooks Brain." I've never had a song stick in my head more than that one

i've never gotten what people like about them either. they're #1 or 2 my list of 'meh' bands.

Godspeed You! Black Emporer - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven

If you haven't heard this album before, you owe it to yourself to listen to it in its entirety(sp?).

yea sleep is like an epic musical journey

White Rabbits- Fort Nightly


I'm a pitchfork drone, so I downloaded the newest CD that got above an 8.0 from them. The first track is really really good, but that's all I've really listened to.

I just jumped from The Coup to The Beatles.

I'm still a little shaken up.

The rest of the album is just as good.

Yeah, I'm listening again, Wang, I adore this album. The piano is so old rock'n'roll... almost boogie-woogie, in parts. That's really what I loved to play as a piano player, but it's cool to hear it influencing something that doesn't sound antiquated. This is maybe my second favorite record, this year.

R. Kelly's "Real Talk" is the most ludicrous thing I've ever heard. It equals, and at times surpasses, Trapped In The Closet.

On a real note, I've been listening to a lot of Mr. Lif, The Coup and Immortal Technique lately. Fight the power.

Also, still listening to Sufjan Stevens a lot. I'm finding that Michigan is my go-to "driving home late at night" album.

And Hot Chip's "The Warning".

I think that's everything. Real talk.

Oh... Anyone listen to Joe Purdy? A buddy of mine introduced me to the song "Wash Away" and I think it's pretty fantastic. I'm thinking about getting more of his stuff.

I also like it alot. It's actually been very good car music for me.



I always listen to this album late at night in the car. I grew up right near Flint, so I have all sorts of pictures in my head for most of the songs.

Tonight

The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
Neil Young - Harvest
Van Morrison - Moondance

The Field- From Here We Go Sublime

Still? Didn't Pitchfork tell you to listen to that months ago? (First Google hit was the Pitchfork review, from March) Is it something I might dig, or can I safely skip it?

Yeah, this is probably a skipperoo for you. It's pretty much just straight Dance/Techno/IDM/whatever it's called these days.

Have you listened to The Wrens yet? If not, I am 99% sure "Meadowlands" is right in your happy zone.

I started listening to Menomena's second effort "Friend and Foe," and I like it quite a bit. It's a little different, and I don't think it's as good as "I am the fun blame monster," but still quite good.


Wang

Stevie Wonder My cherrie Amor... I'm listen to the live 365 motown radio station.. god I love motown.. I don't think there's a genre of music, that I can listen to on the radio, that I like as universally as motown. Most other styles, there is so much crap, I can't stand to listen to it.. but I love motown purely and almost completely.. it's so rare that I'm like " god, I hate this song, I'm changing the channel"

Been listening to a lot of older Beck lately. Sea Change and Midnite Vultures, mostly.

Me too.

Robert Russell Bennett - Suite of Old American Dances

The Grey album.

I don't really like Jay-Z, as a rule, but this is really awesome. Wow.

Danger Mouse has to be towards the top of my producer list, betwixt this and and Dangerdoom (man, hip-hop is as confusing as ****).

gray album really is an incredible piece of work. it's built on two great albums, but it stands on its own.

Have you seen the video for the Gray Album? It's pretty funny.

Glad you finally got around to the Grey Album, Dutch. I thought it was going to be so lame when all the retards I knew started listening to it and telling me how totally righteous it was, but a few parts actually gave me chills the first time I heard it. It's very cool.


I'm finally getting around to listening to the second Menomena album. I don't know why, but I get the feeling that MK would find something to appreciate about the way some of these songs are constructed. Maybe not, though. Anyway, it's good. I especially enjoy the songs "Weird" "My My" and "Evil Bee." Regardless, I recommend that everyone listen to it, but probably a few times, because it's a little goofy.


Wang

Went out and bought cds today for the first time in forever. I got

Bill Evans live in Tokyo '73

Jimi Hendrix - Band of Gypsies, live New Year's Eve 1969 double cd

Radiohead - Kid A

Modern Lovers Live at the Longbranch '71-'72

Rolling Stones - Beggars Banquet

Eric Dolphy - Far Cry with Booker Little

People still pay for those things?

Has anybody else heard the Lupe Fiasco and Kanye song where they sample from Thom's song "The Eraser"?

Usually i hate any rap/urban/r&b music but just heard a song by Dizzee Rascal called Sirens and it's damn good (he's a english rapper btw)

Desecration Of The Heavenly Graceful - Incantation

I'm addicted to Revolutionary Vol 2.

If you're into rap and haven't listened to Immortal Technique, DO IT.


PM me and i'll hook you up with some of his good ****.

I've been on a HUGE Sonic Youth kick since about a week ago. It was weird, because I randomly put in Daydream Nation for like the first time in 2 years the other day, and then a few days later Pitchfork is reviewing the Delux Reissue of the same album. Even when I'm not a Pitchfork Drone, I'm still somehow inexorably tied to them.

Anyway, Dutch, you'd love Sonic Youth. I always forget about them, somehow, even though they rule mega hard



Wang

Chris Cornell - Carry On.

Cornell's covering "Billy Jean" is so absurd it's awesome.

You heard the new Pharoahe Monch yet? The advance is available all over the internets. Or...so I hear. I certainly don't have it on my iPod or anything.

I have a few of their albums, but I don't listen to them. I'll give them another play.

Cowboy Bebop - Rain (Female Vocals)

Peter, Bjorn and John- Writer's Bloc


And I'm still jamming on that White Rabbits CD.


Wang

I had an overwhelming urge last night to listen to In The Aeroplane Over The Sea again.

It's still good.

Anyone hear the new White Stripes album? I don't know if it's not good or if I'm just sick of The White Stripes.

I just opened this thread up to say that I just downloaded it, and was about to give it a listen.

Today I'm on a Wolf Parade kick, so I'm listening to Apologies to the Queen Mary and Sunset Rubdown and all that.

Two of my favorite records.

I just checked out the Pitchfork review of the WS album, and was a little surprised by the 8.0 rating. But I guess they're pretty hard to come to a consensus on, at all.

the band- the night they drove old dixie down

p.s. did anyone go to bonnaroo?

Just heard this today for the first time, As a fan of Soundgarden, TOTD, Audioslave, Euphoria Morning etc etc, It'd be pretty hard for me not to like it...

The one I heard was the Live version and the acoustic guitar backing was horrible but chris sounded awesome as per usual.

Pet Sounds, by the beach boys.. with each passing year, I love this record more and more and more. Like, I used to have a cool kid derision for the Beach boys, thinking they were all fluff and no substance.. and a great amount of their work is fluff.. but it had much more substance than I ever imagined.. and Pet sounds is just a masterpiece..


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cb9u0DHuFdQ

That's the best song ever, right there.. (not a rick roll, pinky swear...) So beautiful and perfect.

I'm also DLing the Sgt. Peppers/Pet sounds mash up, that I am super, duper pyscked to hear, as those are two of my top 10 favorite albums.

God, the mash up was so painful to listen to.. some of the songs were just.. terrible.. like.. they sounded like cd's skipping, it was impossible for me to listen to.. othersongs were cleaver, but.. like.. it twisted my mind too much.. pretty much, it was beatles music and beach boys vocal tracks, with blips and blurps of Beatles vocals and beach boys music.. it's was really, really bad, IMO. But made me want to listen to Sargent peppers again, so I think I will

Send. Immediately. Kthnxbye

just got some eighties stuff from itunes...

This isn't the place to ask but this is good a place as ever. Where'd that 70's music video thread go to? The one that had 70's youtube music videos?

Radiohead, all week.
