I've only heard their two early "classics". I didn't care for Propaganda, but I'd recommend Kimono My House. It's worth owning if only for the album cover:Quoting Rowland (view post)

Have you heard White Noise's An Electric Storm? I think you'll love it more.Quoting Derek (view post)

Don Cherry - "Eternal Rhythm Pt 1"
Nope, but I'm on it!Quoting Boner M (view post)
It makes the USA album look like ordinary 60's psych by comparison. Delighfully weird, and the first 4 or 5 songs are back-to-back awesome.Quoting Derek (view post)
Mississippi Fred McDowell - the Sun Rose This Morning
Ooh, I may have a new fav bluesman.
Bryan Scary and the Shredding Tears - Flight of the Knife (Part One)
When The Ship Comes In-Bob Dylan. Gotta love that harmonica solo near the end of the song. Overall really good stuff indeed, as I continue my quest to hear all of Dylan's work.

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
Downloaded the new Islands album tonight...it's soooooo disappointing. Honestly I don't even want to give it another listen.

At least I didn't even know they had a new album coming out, so it's tough to be too disappointed. Still, Return to Sea was great and I dug The Unicorns, so I figured they'd be a band I could count on.
Circa Survive - "Carry Us Away"
Great album.

{{{Sunset}}} - "Old Sandy Bull Lee"
This actually was the best song on the album, along with
Man's Heart Complaint". Highly recommended album if you like more downtempo psych-pop/folk.

ritch: The Great Annihilator is my favorite Swans album.

Envy - "Chain Wandering Deeply"
It's a fascinating juxtaposition in terms of accessible beauty and singularly disjunctive noise tracks. Yet they go well together. For Cocteau Twins reasons, I love "Warm" the most from the album, but it needs far more spins. And kudos for the Envy track; their second best off that album after "A Will Remains in the Ashes"...Quoting Boner M (view post)
