Edit: GODDAMNIT, they're not coming anywhere near here.

Virgin Suicides OST is having its way with my asshole. It hurts so good.

Is there other Air stuff I should chick-a-chick-a-check, 'yo?

never heard of half of these, gonna have to check em out.

Pink Floyd

Floyd...what am I missing? I still don't get it. I find the instrumentals unpleasant, the lyrics trite and annoying, and the songs in general dated and sickening. I'm sure radio saturation is at play here too, but I still don't get it. Is there some kind of historical context I'm missing? MK? Help me out.

I'm pretty sure I deserve credit for this.

Dutch re: Beatles; U2; Pink Floyd; etc.

I had a rather brief and extremely shallow love-affair with The Beatles about four or five years ago, which mostly revolved around over-playing 1 and The White Album, but never really got far beyond that, because I'd already heard enough of their joints on the radio, ad nauseum, that it kinda' took the punch out of it, and mostly sapped my will to explore too extensively.

This isn't to say that the effect of impact sterilization through the overplay of out-of-context Beatles songs isn't still largely present, for me, but Jesus, there's a lot of Merlin shit in that catalog. Abby Road, Rubber Soul and Sgt. Pepper's are all beyond bumpin'.

U2

I've stated pretty repeatedly that I hate U2, and find them to be incomprehensibly boring and overrated. That being said, I probably until yesterday never gave their more respected work a fair listen. So I downloaded Joshua Tree, and got high...

Well, there were still shaky parts that bored me, but there were other parts that captivated me. I'm by no means a U2 fan, now, but I can understand their appeal.

Pink Floyd

I love Pink Floyd. They are absolutely amazing to listen to, but you have to be in a mood for some of their music. Very few bands have a run on albums like Meddle, Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, and The Wall. Those are 5 great albums. Their stuff with Syd Barrett is really kinda out there. But there's some good stuff. And by out there I mean Arnold Layne is about a guy who likes to sniff ladies panties.

I'm listening to a Led Zeppelin concert March 27th 1970 in Los Angeles.

Bootleg?
Im looking to dl some Zep bootlegs but have only been able to find a concert from toronto thats decent quality, i love their live performance

Would a nerdy Asian kid with a giant, poorly-maintained beard look like a twat wearing a Defy Jux shirt? Hypothetically.

def jux's target market imo.

Cat Power

Anything else like this I should check out?).

This is one of those threads I check every now and then but have never posted in so forgive me if you guys all know this. Erik (DDIDM) turned me on to a site called pandora.com. Its a free site where you can enter an artist and it will play not only songs from that artist but also artists from the same genre. You can skip thru songs by "dislike". Do no use the skip button because it only lets you skip so many per hour.
Its great for checking out new bands you have never heard of very quickly. I've also found bands I never would have known about if it wasn't for this site.
Again, sorry if this is common knowledge for some of you music buffs, but i thought I would throw it out there.
