[Kilgore Cod]

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I was going to go see them last month. How are they?

This has been a long standing favorite.

This album really makes me feel something every time I listen to it.

take all your overgrown infants away somewhere
and build them a home a little place of their own
the fletcher memorial
home for incurable tyrants and kings
and they can appear to themselves every day
on closed circuit t.v.
to make sure they're still real
it's the only connection they feel
"ladies and gentlemen, please welcome reagan and haig
mr. begin and friend mrs. thatcher and paisley
mr. brezhnev and party
the ghost of mccarthy
the memories of nixon
and now adding colour a group of anonymous latin
american meat packing glitterati"
did they expect us to treat them with any respect
they can polish their medals and sharpen their
smiles, and amuse themselves playing games for a while
boom boom, bang bang, lie down you're dead
safe in the permanent gaze of a cold glass eye
with their favourite toys
they'll be good girls and boys
in the fletcher memorial home for colonial
wasters of life and limb
is everyone in?
are you having a nice time?
now the final solution can be applied

Favorite album for a while now

[Kilgore Cod]

I was going to go see them last month. How are they?

Never seen them live unfortunately. Always ingnored them til I heard their latest album, Twilight Of The Thunder God, which totally clicked with me and made me seek out their back catalouge. Great Viking death metal that makes me throw my fist in the air while ravaging weak villagers.

[Rez]

[Esuohlim]

[bigtimecow]

The Dillinger Escape Plan - Option Paralysis

i've been tempted to listen, but i really hated the last one. it was extremely uneven

otherwise

bear vs. shark - terrorhawk

and the new daughters album (self-titled) but i learned that the singer like hates it or something which is disappointing :(

[Mad Melvin]

YES. Sing to God is fucking incredible

True dat. You know, you might be the first person I've come across who has even heard of Cardiacs. Let alone like it.

All of you other assholes should start listening to Cardiacs immediately. >:

New Medicines by Dead Poetics

"Glass in the Trees" – 5:01

"Dimmer Light" – 4:06

[Esuohlim]

Do a search of "Cardiacs" on this board. I'm the only other person here who has ever mentioned them and it sickens me :x

It doesn't help that all their stuff is hella out of print

Moving Pictures - Rush

[Pentegarn]

Did you see them in concert when they were just there Colonel?

[Colonel Flagg]

I've just recently been reintroduced to Rush for the first time, so I missed the "Snakes and Arrows" Tour.

For the 2010 tour, they're due in Philly on July 21st. And no, I won't be going. :(

[Fathom Zero]

Snakes and Arrows was a good album.

You should change your mind about that Colonel. They are doing a re-tour for Moving Pictures, I think you would dig it.

Now if only they would do a re-tour for A Farewell to Kings

[Colonel Flagg]

Finding a sitter for 3 kids under the age of 7 and one elder with ASD is a little too challenging, not to mention distracting - I wouldn't enjoy myself.

Now, I suppose I could bring the kids - but this might embarrass me as I would know less of the music than they would. :\

PS. a redo of "A Farewell to Kings" would be awesome. :rock

You know Tadao, GW is a Ronnie James Dio fan too

[Tadao]

I bet he has an opinion on what was Dio's best album.

[Grislygus]

He's all about Heaven and Hell.

[Grislygus]

He hates Ozzy, too.

[Tadao]

I'm still a little pissed that Ozzy and his wife wouldn't let Black Sabbath w/ Dio play as Black Sabbath. Now they will always and forever look like petty little bitches.

[Grislygus]

We always knew that he was a petty little bitch, though, the crazy just made him badass and his vocalizations made us love him

Anyway so the best albums ever were pretty much the Dire Strait's Making Movies, The Cult's Sonic Temple, Jackie Greene's American Myth, and that one album by Howlin' Wolf with the rocking chair on it.

[Grislygus]

And Eddie Hazel's solo album would have made it on the list if he hadn't included any other song other than his unbelievable cover of California Dreamin'; Unfortunately he did actually include other songs and they were craptastic.

"SONGS LIKE FOREVER MAN, AFTER MIDNIGHT, AND ROCK AND ROLL HEART ARE FAR TOO DRAWN OUT AND MUSICALLY COMPLICATED FOR MY TASTES."

can't really defend hendrix on that point, though

I rather liked Ozzy/Dio/Sabbath at one point. Then I stopped being 14.

"At one point" being a year and a half ago.

[Guitar Woman]

Danzig really cememted my realization that metal was retarded, mostly by refusing to sing about anything other than Satan and his super best pals. Not that Danzig's solo work generally sucking shit had something to do with it!

Come to think of it, I stopped liking metal at the same time I realized Pink Floyd sucked a prolapsed anus, this cannot be anything but the rapid onset of maturity trying to purge myself of faggotry as I become a manly man

Deep Purple's still neat, though. There must be a scientific explanation for how they've got a keyboard in nearly every song but avoid being gay.

[Aaarg]

no offense but you have a trout mask replica image in your signature.

safe as milk is awesome. trout mask replica is garbage, and i don't care how many big-name people think it's something great.

but yeah. metal sucks and pink floyd mostly sucks (fuck off, meddle is great) and glenn danzig is glenn fucking danzig.

i checked in on him to see what he's doing, after making a joke about black aria iii. turns out he's working on black aria iii. fuck. i was joking, for fuck's sake! also he's working on a new album, apparently with the help of hank williams iii.

music is shit.

[Guitar Woman]

Trout Mask Replica's first half is sorta shitty, but from China Pig onward it's pretty good. Even after multiple listenings I've failed to hear what it's trying to come together as; usually that'll happen with confusing double albums after I've dismissed them as generally mediocre. It's definitely not my favorite Beefheart album, I just like the cover art, Sugar n' Spikes, and Veteran's Day Poppy a whole lot.

Bat Chain Puller, on the other hand, is a fucking mad good album. Probably one of my all-time favorites, definitely the best thing Beefheart ever did. Safe as Milk is good, too. I like that all the alternate Strictly Personal songs on the bonus edition are better than the ones they ended up releasing.

Electric Wizard is so badass.

[Grislygus]

Deep Purple's still neat, though. There must be a scientific explanation for how they've got a keyboard in nearly every song but avoid being gay.

a sustained, simplistic, and lingering blues influence paired with a raw, gritty style and good riff work, plus a large number of unrecognized classics like stormbringer, lady double dealer, speed king, and black night will keep your interest for a little while until you suddenly "get over it", briefly become interested in EXTREMELY seventies-period white druggie blues like tommy bolin's private eyes album and atomic rooster's Death Walks Behind You, at which point you will either to continue to fixate on blues/rock and end up with a love of contemporary blues-(ish) artists like Jackie Green and, possibly Clutch if you also veer into Thin Lizzy/lynyrd skynyrd/molly hatchet territory; or you will enact a personal rebellion and reject the blues harder than a Pat boone fan hating on thelonius monk and further develop your love for shit contemporary like the White Stripes, Modest Mouse, and Coldplay, possibly stumbling onto decent Art-pop bands like Trotsky icepick and pride yourself on "discovering" them

That's like how Colombus said he discovered America despite the fact that people were there already

[Grislygus]

Eminem, Lady Gaga, and country music fans also expect us to believe them when they say that

[Fathom Zero]

I've really discovered a few guys, especially DJs that are making it kinda sorta big lately. It's weird when you hear some really epic sounds and see that they've only been played only a hundred other times.

Temporarily back on topic I'm actually backing up Aarg's choice at the moment, he's gotten me hooked

[Aaarg]

john fahey? awesome, the dude was great.

dance of death and other plantation favorites is probably my favorite album of his, so check that out if you aren't familiar (even if only for the title track). also, "dry bones in the valley" is an awesome song on an otherwise... different album. it's on an album that has a few guitar duets and then a few songs with a "dixieland jug band" (though the songs they do are good, just... different).


also, currently really enjoying:

This album is solid, but there's something about Eno that makes me really tired of listening to his albums even if I've only heard it twice (Taking Tiger Mountain, Before and After Science). Here Comes the Warm Jets is my favorite, but there's dozens of other albums I'd pick over it.

The guitar solo on Baby's On Fire is orgasmic, though

[Aaarg]

I only know that one and Taking Tiger Mountain, and I like both of them.

I'm trying not to get too much of his stuff, I'm trying to stick with the old ones so I don't ruin his image in my mind. It's why I refuse to listen to much more Elvis Costello than I already have, haha.

My opinion has been re-worked slightly.

[Tadao]

Don't worry, your gonna act like you know all about it then in a week call it shit and move on to some other genre that your friends haven't gotten into yet so that you can try to impress them with your big headphones and knowledge about noise that you care nothing about.

[Guitar Woman]

Probably not, I'll just stick with The Ramones and The Misfits unless people who aren't idiots tell me about other not-shit punk bands that exist

What inspired me to pick up a Ramones album was that I listen to a fair amount of Grunge, but a lot of it can get really abrasive (which I realize is partially the point, but that doesn't make it sound less shit) and I figured "Hey, grunge is sorta based on punk, that might feature less guitar feedback ear rape but still be fun to listen to maybe"

[Esuohlim]

They aren't nearly as awesome as Cardiacs, but the three best albums in my opinion are Wrong, Why Do They Call Me Mr. Happy, and All Roads Lead to Ausfahrt

I dunno I'd even say the Clash or Elvis Costello are punk. At least, they're not the first I'd think of.

[Tadao]

You call that crapfest fun? I suppose listening to babies cry is a great way to spend the afternoon as well. :rolleyes

[BatDan]

well that's probably because alot people forgot what real punk is, everything from the mid 80s up to the 00s killed punk in my opinion.

and also Elvis and Clash transcend the punk genre by experiementing with different styles, but they were still true innovators, they had the DIY and in your face attitude, a social and political conscience, they spoke the truth, and above all they created their own unique sound.

EDIT:
"You call that crapfest fun? I suppose listening to babies cry is a great way to spend the afternoon as well".

what's your idea of 'fun' music?

There hasnt been music fun music in a looong time, then again, i hear Lady Gaga and Jonas Brothers are just true inspiring artists, that have a strong intelligent influence on our modern youth and society.

i feel a juicy debate coming on..

[Fathom Zero]

When I think of punk, I think of X-Ray Specs.

[BatDan]

i like them too.

but theres other forms of punk, some acts were alot more abrasive raw-rock and roll, like Dead Boys, and Pistols, while some acts were more lyrical based like The Jam, Costello,Clash, John Cooper Clarke was considered punk artist and all he did was spoken word poems, and some acts were just out there like Talking Heads. they all sounded different but they still had the essence and energy of punk.

[kahljorn]

I think i get what fat dan is saying. Even though my asshole isn't technically a part of the punk genre i think that it has the essence and energy of punk.

[BatDan]

if that's the case, i'd really like to take a listen to your asshole. :love

anyway, if ALL artists/bands want to tie themselves down to the generic confines of the way their 'genre' is supposed to 'sound', then that doesnt really help them stand out or mature as musicians does it? :)

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I went to see GBH a few weeks ago and during the middle of their set their singer said how much he hated people like BatDan. I didn't know what he was talking about then but now I do.

This is some dorky-ass shit, I can't get enough of it lately. I wish they'd make more albums :(

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I need some music. What does it sound like Milkhouse?

Now where have I heard that before? :\

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I don't know if I can deal with the vocals on the Battles song. The instrumentation sounds pretty good. Around 3 minutes into it it sound like

though

[Esuohlim]

I myself also wish the vocals didn't sound like gay little elves. Vocals are rare on the album but it's always distorted like that

I have been listening to the Seams EP non-stop. He's a producer from London and it's the best music I've heard in awhile. The EP is streaming BALLS and it's totally worth listening to! :)

PLEASE FONDUE MY BUTTOCKS

FUCKING AMAZING. Consider this a recommendation in the highest degree.

I was extremely disappointed when I learned that the name of the album wasn't actually "Big Black Songs About Fucking" :(

[MLE]

fz do you have a new favorite album about every two days

[Fathom Zero]

I'M FICKLE :(

[MLE]

the thread should be named "FZ's favorite album of the day"

[Fathom Zero]

What if it doesn't last a day?

[MLE]

You need help

I need adderall.

Pretz ... nice choice! :D

[sspadowsky]

I think it has to be Devo- Something for Everybody. This thing is amazing. I always kinda dug them on a superficial, i-know-all-their-radio-songs level, but this shit is inspired. I now have to go re-explore their back catalog.

[Aaarg]

Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are DEVO!
is easily their best album.
Duty Now For the Future
is pretty good, too.
i don't like anything they did past those two, though.

oh yeah and "smart patrol/mr. dna" from DNFF is awesome

My loyalty to Devo goes on to the next two albums as well. After that it's all shit

Salem's King Night. So good.

[NatRatBat]

Dreams that Breathe Your Name - Elysian Fields
or possibly
Antics - Interpol

Blind Guardian - At The Edge of Time

I'm a sucker for vocal harmony. :(

I've just barely gotten over the song "For The Longest Time"

[Esuohlim]

I've been playing a lot of HERETIC PRIDE by the Mountain Goats lately :o

[WhiteRat]

I've probably listened to this album more times than any other since it came out in 08. It's one of those that you just leave on repeat. Hard to pick a favorite track but this one is pretty damn good:

2uu-myaGeJY

[Krythor]

Felt - Forever Breathes the Lonely Word

[Mad Melvin]

PJ Harvey- Let England Shake

It is awesome.

[Fathom Zero]

I've been listening to the Wipers' "Is This Real?" quite a lot.

[Esuohlim]

I'm listening to GUNS by Cardiacs over and over these days :x

[Mad Melvin]

I'm listening to GUNS by Cardiacs over and over these days :x

It's a great album, but I rank it pretty low on Cardiacs scale (which is a scale between totally fucking awesome and amazing). Will Bleed Amen, Sleep All Eyes Open and Wind And Rains Is Cold are all phenomenal songs, but there are a couple of not-so-good tracks.

[Esuohlim]

I like Sleep All Eyes Open and Come Back Clammy Lammy the best. It's their only album I haven't heard that much so maybe it's just the novelty of newness.

[Shyandquietguy]

DEVO - Something for Everybody

There's some sicknasty guitar playing at this show. I could take or leave Iggy's performance.

I always liked "Last Splash", but I somehow ignored the debut. Pretty good stuff.

For me, it doesn't get better. Didn't get better for Ian Curtis, either, mind. He kinda stopped living.

Deicide - Serpents of the light.

Wow, I absolutely hate myself for not even trying to enjoy anything that even remotely resembled novelty. :(

My fourth of July resolution is to not be such a pretentious douche.

EDIT number 2! Just got MC Chris Eating is not cheating and Knowing is half the hassle.

I'm so god damn far behind. :(
