Yes they are. Those two albums are easily two of my most favorite, although I am in the minority and prefer Marauders over Low End.Quoting megladon8 (view post)

That's the minority?
Because it's easily my preference as well.
"All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"
"Rick...it's a flamethrower."
I don't know, just everyone I have talked to seems to prefer Low End, I think the production on Marauders is so much better and that elevates it above.Quoting megladon8 (view post)
On another subject, I really like the She & Him album, but then again like most people here I have a crush on Zooey, so it is a biased opinion.
Dave Brubeck is coming to town on May 25th!

Is it sad that I figured he was dead?Quoting bac0n (view post)
Well, the man is 88 years old. I figure I need to see him when he comes, cuz who knows how many more performances he has in him.

And now I am jealous. Hope they put on a good show for you... I've heard good things about their concerts, though that was during The Mantle days when they strove to be as experimental in the live format as possible (Japanese drums, etc.)Quoting Daniel Davis (view post)
The Boat People - 9
The Power of the Dog - 7.5
The King of Pigs - 7
It's at a super small club, too. Should be fun.Quoting dreamdead (view post)
I'm glad you've heard good things about them live. I've heard nothing, and was a little apprehensive.
I'm really interested to see what kind of crowd they draw. Will it be metal heads, hipster kids, or ren fair folk?
I wish they would release their new EP on iTunes. I guess I'll have to wait until next Friday to buy it.
Until I learned that he recently released a disc (one that I think actually was nominated for a Grammy this year. I donno if it won or not), I thought that he was dead as well. The guy isn't exactly a spring chicken though at 88...Quoting Kurosawa Fan (view post)

Everything dies, baby, that's a fact
But maybe everything that dies some day comes back
Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty
And meet me tonight in Atlantic City
New album out from Irish/Danish rapper tomorrow. It's bloody brilliant. He was a typical gangsta rapper, but on his last album Cassiopeia he suddenly started writing good lyrics and his beats were awesome. On his new double album Melankolia/Xxx Couture, he decided to try something entirely new to him, electro rap. I love it.
Although you won't understand a word of it:
LOC - Xxx Couture
LOC feat. Orgi-E - Sl!k
LOC - Tortur
"Listen man, it might be hard to understand, but
Don't mourn the dead,
Celebrate the life they gave"
- Kashmir "Seraphina"
So the new Agalloch E.P. doesn't rock - at all!
It's almost all acoustic, and really folksy.
It sounds more like the Diablo 2 soundtrack than anything...
I think Blizzard should listen to it, maybe they'd get started on Diablo 3 sooner.
I hope they don't play all this acoustic stuff this Friday when I see them.
Art Tatum is the finest pianist this country has ever produced, period.
Evidence One: Yesterdays
Evidence Two: She's Funny That Way
Evidence Three: Elegy
Evidence Four: The Definitive Art Tatum Piece: Tiger Rag. Try to keep up.
Yes, this is only one guy playing. And yes, Art Tatum grew up for the most part blind.
After hearing Art Tatum play, Sergei Rachmoninoff Himself declared Tatum to be the greatest piano player alive.
Losing is like fertilizer: it stinks for a while, then you get used to it. (Tony, Hibbing)
Yes.
Yes. Yes. Yes.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES.
Tatum = God.
M83's new album "Saturdays = Youth" leaked!

This album is a lot heavier on vocals. The second half is great, but I'm a little ambivalent towards the first half and especially the female vocals.Quoting Stay Puft (view post)
