Greg_W Posted March 11, 2004 Posted March 11, 2004 White Stripes - Elephant  I can't believe how much this album sucked ass. Sorry, my opinion. Right now I'm listening to OffWhite's compilation. Quote

fern Posted March 11, 2004 Posted March 11, 2004  Hot Hot Heat - Make Up the Break Down is worth buying and not stealing. But they are starting to get popular enough that they aren't cool to listen to anymore  i guess they are in the same vein as the flava-du-jour garage rock stuff like Jet and White Stripes and the Hives etc. Except clever and not all 4/4 time signature. I bet they wear skinny ties. SUB POP yo. Quote
arlen Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 Hot Hot Heat's definitely in that past-the-burnout-from-playing-it-over-and-over-at-first-but-probably-headed-for-the-bottom-of-the-stack-for-a-couple-years-after-this-playing zone. Â But it's hard to be sentimental when there's new Blonde Redhead in the burner Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 As of ~10 minutes ago, Anti-Flag's 'The Terror State' ("fuck the flag and FUCK YOU!"). Earlier, Screeching Weasel's 'Televisioncitydream' and Fugazi's 'The Argument'. It's looking like 'Run Screaming' by Slow Gherkin will be up next, because, hey, why not? Â Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 Make that Common Rider, 'This Is Unity Music' (with a few other tracks thrown in for good measure). This is truly a classic album, really different from their first. It's got smart lyrics, it's definitely punk rock, with some more inventive ska stylings here and there, some almost 80's rock influences in evidence, and lotsa pop sensibility. That's "pop sensibility" in a catchy tunes and hooks kinda way, not like some Top 40 power-pop band who thinks they play "punk rock" because they have distortion boxes and Blink 182 t-shirts (just turn on the radio, you'll probably hear one of these bands within five minutes). Â Jesse Michaels is a genius! Quote
Dru Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 UNKLE - Never Never Land. No DJ Shadow, all James Lavelle. "Even in heaven there were angels carrying savage weapons". Â DJ Vadim - Stereo Pictures Vol 3. "The greatest evil facing America is COMMUNISM. Communism is the religion of the devil." Â Black Eyed Peas - Elephunk. "Stinkin like fat ladies shittin out logs we pump enough funk to keep your toilets clogged." Â RZA - Ghost Dog soundtrack. "The way of the samurai is found in death. Meditation on inevitable death should be performed daily." Â Neil Young - Greendale. "Tell him I've got a new song to sing. It's twice as long as all the others combined and it don't mean a thing." Â Quote
ScottP Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 We are the children who grew too fast We are the dust of a future past We raise our voices in the night Crying to heaven And will our voices be heard Or will they Break Like The Wind We are the footprints across the sands We are the thumb on a stranger's hand We made a promise in the night Swearing to heaven Is this a promise we keep Or one we Break Like The Wind Hey! We are the guests who have stayed too long We are the end of the endless song We send our hearts into the night Soaring to heaven And will out hearts still beat on Or will they Break Like The Wind Ooh, Break Like The Wind.

Off_White Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 Hey DFA, nice to see you've come around. You were pretty tepid on the topic of Common Rider last time we discussed 'em and you were unimpressed with the new disc. It's one of those things that grew and grew on me until I lost it, probably in one of these stacks of cd's that litter my house and office. Â I've had The Ravonettes "Chain Gang Of Love" in heavy rotation of late, though since they're opening for the Strokes in Seattle I fear they may be destined for Fern's too-popular-to-be-cool category. Danish duo with others to fill in, they've got the male-female vocal thing going with a great churning pop sound, and often some kind of wierd noise layered into the background. As an added bit of wierdness, I believe they boast that every song is written in B flat major. I have to thank my local library for having this disc. Quote

Squid Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 [quote Del ROCKS. That's a GREAT disc. Kid Koala Dan the Automator:  Check out this other project by Dan the Automator:  Lovage: Music to Make Love to Your Old Lady By  It keeps me happy.  I'm also grooving on Micheal Franti & Spearhead (Everybody deserves music).  For those unfamiliar, it's the legitimate child of Barry White and Billy Bragg  Quote
Greg_W Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 Right now, Jason Newsted's beautiful intro to "One" is pumping out of my computer. Quote
