What Are You Listening To?

[Llopin]

I like everything TFC, but Bandwagonesque will always be their most accomplished record to me, the most special. I saw them live about a year ago performing the album in its entirety (and then some early singles at the encore) and it was one of the best shows I've ever been to. The start with "The Concept" was brutally emotional, and I even cried at the end, with "Is This Music?". I had already seen them before and enjoyed the hell out of it, yet that was sublime.

Jale - Not Happy

[DSNT]

:up: to all this TFC love, but I gotta agree with DD again that their later stuff was pretty horrid. Songs From Northern Britain was unlistenable.

Sounds like a great show. The Concept is my 2nd fave from that album.

[Acapelli]

Teenage Fanclub - Don't Look Back

I think my favorite from Bandwagonesque would be a tie between What You Do To Me and Alcoholiday.

[krazed]

The Replacements - "Otto"

Makes me wanna :pritch:

[Sycophant]

ELO - "Livin' Thing"

I'm loving this album so far.

[Russ]

The Weakerthans - Left and Leaving

[Ivan Drago]

Long Road to Ruin - Foo Fighters

[DSNT]

I Found the F, Broadcast

[bac0n]

MGMT - Time To Pretend

[jesse]

MGMT - Time To Pretend I was just listening to the clip on iTunes. :) Not my thing though.

[jesse]

Revelations - Yoko Ono & Cat Power

Kind of off-putting, but grows on me more every time I listen to it.

[origami_mustache]

KJHK 90.7 Lawrence

[DSNT]

Rhapsody, Alejandro Escovedo

[Rowland]

Apoptygma Berzerk - Eclipse

[transmogrifier]

Music.

It's great.

[Boner M]

Music.

It's great.
I liked it's early stuff better.
_______

The Tea Party - "A Certain Slant of Light"

*getting nostalgic*

[bac0n]

Apoptygma Berzerk - Eclipse

Wow, there's a blast from the past.

The first two songs on that album are positively awesome.

[transmogrifier]

I liked it's early stuff better.


You would, Grandpa Boner.

[Russ]

The Buzzcocks - I Believe

[transmogrifier]

To be more specific, Tom Mutherfuckin' Waits.

If that's not his real middle name, it should be.

If you don't like Tom Mutherfuckin' Waits, you fail at life.

Every movie should be forced to include Tom Mutherfuckin' Waits in some way.

[kamran]

M.I.A. - "Hombre" and "Amazon". Also "Boyz".

[Boner M]

The Field - "Everyday"

Not in love with the entire album, but some tracks are just gorgeous (like this one).

[Hugh_Grant]

"Big Decision" -- That Petrol Emotion

[Horbgorbler]

Rings - Is He Handsome

[Henry Gale]

The Field - "Everyday"

Not in love with the entire album, but some tracks are just gorgeous (like this one).

Same, that's the only one that really grabbed when I listened to it.

But right now, "Sea Of Love" by Tom Waits... or Cat Power... or The Honeydrippers... okay, how about all three in a row?

[Hugh_Grant]

The National -- "Secret Meeting"

[origami_mustache]

Michael Showalter - "Erotica"

[Sycophant]

ELO - "Don't Bring Me Down"

I don't think I've listened to anything but ELO in the past week.

[Hugh_Grant]

Ron Sexsmith -- "Don't Ask Why"

[D_Davis]

Gavin Bryars Ensemble - Sinking The Titanic IX: Woodblocks

I cannot get enough of this album. It truly is one of the most beautiful and haunting pieces of music I've ever heard.

[Sven]

God help me, I think I'm starting to like They Might Be Giants...

[transmogrifier]

God help me, I think I'm starting to like They Might Be Giants...


How the hell do you have two green bricks, walking around saying stuff like that?

[Sven]

How the hell do you have two green bricks, walking around saying stuff like that?

Just answer me this:

Am I supposed to not like them? Or was I already supposed to be liking them?

[transmogrifier]

Just answer me this:

Am I supposed to not like them? Or was I already supposed to be liking them?

Deep into your heart, must you look.

[Acapelli]

Michael Showalter - "Erotica"
Have you heard Michael Ian Black's album? I loved it.

Wiz Khalifa - Say Yeah

This song should be awful, but somehow it's not.

[transmogrifier]

The Unicorns!

[D_Davis]

God help me, I think I'm starting to like They Might Be Giants...

Welcome to the club. They're awesome.

Factory Showroom and Flood for the win!

[Sven]

The Unicorns!

I have a friend who really likes them and I can't figure out why.


Welcome to the club. They're awesome.

Factory Showroom and Flood for the win!

I really liked this song of theirs called Experimental Film. So then I was like "Hmmm..." and listened to a bunch of other random songs and was like "Huh." Then I decided that I think I like them.

[Horbgorbler]

David Thomas - Petrified

Hilarious.

[D_Davis]

I really liked this song of theirs called Experimental Film. So then I was like "Hmmm..." and listened to a bunch of other random songs and was like "Huh." Then I decided that I think I like them.

I am definitely not an uber-fan. I don't like everything by them, and I do think that some of their albums are kind of bad. However, their good stuff is awesome.

Their children's music is really good as well. If I had kids, they would definitely be listening to TMBG over any other kids songs.

[origami_mustache]

Lupe Fiasco - "Go Go Gadget Flow"

[Boner M]

I like TMBG. "Ana Ng" is a fave.

_______

Young Marble Giants - "Final Day"

I just scored Colossal Youth and am curious.

Ooh, reeaally hope you dig it. One of my all-time top 5, maybe even top 3.

Ooh, reeaally hope you dig it. One of my all-time top 5, maybe even top 3.
Mine too. The same goes for Final Day for songs.

[dreamdead]

Condor44 - Winter

so freaking sweet.

[transmogrifier]

[BirdsAteMyFace]

Iron and Wine - "Lion's Mane"...that reminds me that I haven't heard The Creek Drank the Cradle yet. Strange how I overlooked it, after moderately enjoying both Our Endless Numbered Days and The Shepard's Dog.

Iron & Wine - "Flightless Bird, American Mouth"

[Russ]

Just finished listening to Pig Lib, inspired by krazed's post in the Discuss the Musics thread. Easily one of the best albums I own.

[Sycophant]

Alice Cooper - "No More Mr. Nice Guy"

[Ivan Drago]

One - Metallica

[krazed]

I guess I should listen to this again.

What. Ever. You make me laugh.

[Russ]

David Bowie - Sorrow

[Horbgorbler]

What. Ever. You make me laugh.

Have you heard Distortion yet? It's certainly not bad, but it is completely mediocre for him, and the entire 'distortion' shtick seems like a very badly thought-out and employed gimmick.

[Sven]

Have you heard Distortion yet? It's certainly not bad, but it is completely mediocre for him, and the entire 'distortion' shtick seems like a very badly thought-out and employed gimmick.

Yeah, I heard it. And while the distortion thing is a little cute, I certainly don't think that it signifies Merritt being past his prime. The songs themselves are as good as they ever were (some of them are phenomenally awesome), and the distortion isn't that prominent. Plus, The Magnetic Fields have always been a borderline lo-fi electronica band, so to hear them experiment with sound with some of this album's prolonged fuzz-beats, warped synths, and strange moods is a natural progression, it feels like.

It's certainly more palatable than that boring Panda Bear album that randomly throws sound effects every which way through a haze of shroom-induced echoiness.

[Ezee E]

Sycophant by Jonny Greenwood

Damn this was a tough track to find.

[Derek]

Sycophant by Jonny Greenwood

Please tell me that's the one with the drums/tamborines as Daniel carries H.W. after the accident b/c I can't find that one anywhere.

His Public Enemy #1 mixtape is surprisingly good. He really knows how to pick beats that fit his style and flow.

[origami_mustache]

Dr. Dog - "The Way the Lazy Do"

[Boner M]

Acid Mothers Temple & The Cosmic Inferno - "OM Riff"

I wish their discography wasn't so vast & impossible to catch up with.

[Boner M]

Pretty Park, Kevin Coyne

This is a pretty damn good album (Millionaires & Teddy Bears). Where to next for this guy?
Many will agree that Marjory Razorblade is his masterpiece, me included... "Eastbourne Ladies" is one of those 'how-isn't-this-a-clasic-rock-FM-staple' songs. Case History is good if you want something really raw, stripped-down and nakedly emotional to the point of scariness. It outdoes Syd Barrett's The Madcap Laughs in those departments. I've also heard Blame it on the Night, which is OK but forgettable.

__________

Alice Coltrane - "Shika-Lova"

[Velocipedist]

Laughing Clowns - Holy Joe

Really, really great jazz-punk. First listen.

Animal Collective - Peacebone (Pantha Du Prince remix)

Brian Eno - Needles in the Camel's Eye

I think Here Come the Warm Jets may have the best opening/closing song duo of all time.

[Ivan Drago]

Ave Maria - Christina England

[dreamdead]

Sunset Rubdown - Magic vs. Midas

:eek:What a great crescendo...

[D_Davis]

Brian Eno - Needles in the Camel's Eye

I think Here Come the Warm Jets may have the best opening/closing song duo of all time.

It's pretty killer.

My favorite 3-song opening is still U2's The Joshua Tree. Where the Streets Have No Name, I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For and With or Without You. It just doesn't get much better than this.

As I was walking on the moon, I met a little cow-ow-ow, and this is what she said to me...

Quite possibly the greatest song ever penned.

[Justin]

Ghostface Killah - Walk Around

[transmogrifier]

Awesome. I feel bad for people who skimped on Begin to Hope and didn't get the deluxe version. They don't know what they're missing.

Definitely one of the more worthwhile bonus discs.

Alabama 3 - "The Gospel Train"

Snoop Dogg ft. Robyn - Sexual Eruption

This song rocks.

Did you give Pig Lib another listen yet?

[Derek]

John Zorn - "Contempt"

Ok, this is pretty badass reworking of the theme song to the Godard film, but man, the rest of Naked City is aggressively lame.

[krazed]

Did you give Pig Lib another listen yet?

Not yet, I think it may have been deleted from my comp. Let me do some more digging. Have you heard his newest yet?

Also, Cadence Weapon - House Music

[Kurosawa Fan]

Not yet, I think it may have been deleted from my comp. Let me do some more digging. Have you heard his newest yet?


I haven't checked it out yet. I'll have to remedy that quickly.

[Horbgorbler]

John Zorn - "Contempt"

Ok, this is pretty badass reworking of the theme song to the Godard film, but man, the rest of Naked City is aggressively lame.

Yeah. Not a good rekkid. For all of the brilliance in the Tzadik back catalogue, Electric Masada's At the Mountain of Madness is the only album Zorn himself plays on that has ever really impressed me.

_____
the Teardrop Explodes - Reward

Bless my cotton socks, I'm in the news!

[Llopin]

Malkmus' new stuff is pretty good. It reminds me of both 60s bluesy guitar bands and B&S-like twee. At the same time.

And Zorn rocks your asses in all his reinventions. Naked City and Torture Garden are classic albums, and everything he's done with Masada is mind-fucking. His most recent album, Six Lithanies for Heliogabalus, is pretty rad too.

Clark - Truncation Horn

[Boner M]

'Aggressively lame' describes roughly 90% of Zorn's output. (sorry Llops)

___________

Tall Dwarfs - "Pirouette"

[origami_mustache]

Why? - "Dumb Hummer"

[Russ]

The Blasters - I'm Shakin'

[Duncan]

Battles - "Tij"

[Kurosawa Fan]

Have you heard his newest yet?



Oh, wow. I grabbed this at work. Wow. I've heard the first 6 tracks and it kicked my ass so far. The title track, "Cold Son", "Baltimore"... I'm seriously impressed.

[Acapelli]

Stars of the Lid - Broken Harbors part 2

Love this album. Is their latest anywhere near as good as Tired Sounds?

[Horbgorbler]

Gastr del Sol - A Jar of Fat

[D_Davis]

Steven Roach - Structures from Silence

:eek:

Why have I never heard this before?

This is ambient music of the most beautiful kind.

[Our Aurora]

Bob Dylan - Chimes of Freedom

[Llopin]

Stars of the Lid - Broken Harbors part 2

Love this album. Is their latest anywhere near as good as Tired Sounds?

Not really.

And I saw them live a month ago and they mostly bored me.

Riddle of Steel - Underwater

Best album of the year so far.

[Acapelli]

Not really.

And I saw them live a month ago and they mostly bored me.
That's sort of disappointing. I was considering seeing them live since they're performing at a church in my area.

[krazed]

Manitoba - "I've Lived on a Dirt Road All My Life"

[MadMan]

Queen Jane Approximately-Bob Dylan. Good track, but one of the weaker ones off of Highway 61 Revisited.

[krazed]

Lil' Wayne - "I'm Me"

[Kurosawa Fan]

Queen Jane Approximately-Bob Dylan. Good track, but one of the weaker ones off of Highway 61 Revisited.

Malk De Koijn - Fågt Op I Skalle (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npj0scBta90)

[MadMan]

:|Heh. Its a great album, but I think it and It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry are the weakest parts of the album. A review of it is forthcoming, but first I need to listen to it a couple more times.

[Justin]

Coconut Records - West Coast

[Kurosawa Fan]

Heh. Its a great album, but I think it and It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry are the weakest parts of the album. A review of it is forthcoming, but first I need to listen to it a couple more times.

Jesus. This is as close to negative rep as I've come on this site. That's the best track on an album that has no "weak parts". It's Dylan's masterwork. Brilliant from start to finish.

[Kurious Jorge v3.1]

Jeanette - Porque te vas

(damn you Cria Cuervos!)

[Justin]

Grinderman - Honey Bee(Let's Fly to Mars)

[Llopin]

That's sort of disappointing. I was considering seeing them live since they're performing at a church in my area.

By all means go ahead. Maybe I wasn't in the mood. Or the rest of the audience wasn't.. :rolleyes:

Can - Vitamin C

you're losin! you're losin! you're losin...!

[Horbgorbler]

Jesus. This is as close to negative rep as I've come on this site. That's the best track on an album that has no "weak parts". It's Dylan's masterwork. Brilliant from start to finish.

You're confusing it with Bringing It All Back Home Again, silly.
________

Claudio Monteverdi - Fecit Potentiam

[Kurosawa Fan]

You're confusing it with Bringing It All Back Home Again, silly.


No. I'm not. Though technically you could use that sentence and insert about 8 different albums of his and it would be impossible to argue.
