Got this last night, started listening this morning. Quite good I'd say, more experimental than I expected.

Now lets add this to the worst album covers list. Is this 80s thrash/punk from Venice Beach?

This finally came out, had been waiting for a release date for over a year. Modern Italian prog (English vocals). Their first two albums are great, highly recommended for fans of King Crimson and Van der Graaf Generator. I've mentioned them before in the Albums You're Digging thread.

Excellent acquisition there! My brother and I have been digging that one as of late also.

Cool! Have you heard the others? I've yet to play this new one, might just start it now. From what I hear it's less heavy and more psychedelic/spacey perhaps than the previous material.

I will certainly try!

Oh, I guess I just happen to stumble into these recently too,

Mogwai - Young Team
Listening to this now. Certainly some good post-rock, I can see why they're one of bigger names of the genre.

Rush - Hemispheres
Picked it up on Anteater's word plus I'd been meaning to get "that one with 'The Trees'".

Makeout Videotape - Makeout Videotape at Mercury Lounge 2009-09-27
I saw these guys some months ago opening for YSP!WSD! and they played a really enjoyable set. Didn't get a chance to pick up any of their recordings then and still looking for some. Surfy guitar/drums stuff in the vein of Wavves but better and less over-the-top lo-fi.

To help fill out some missing albums/not complete albums for my DM collection
The Dead Milkmen - Eat Your Paisley!
The Dead Milkmen - Instant Club Hit (You'll Dance to Anything)
The Dead Milkmen - Not Richard, but Dick
The Dead Milkmen - Soul Rotation
The Dead Milkmen - Metaphysical Graffiti

The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower - Love in the Fascist Brothel
Had a little bit by these guys for a while but thought it was about time for a full length.

Genghis Tron - Dead Mountain Mouth
Same with this band. I've always really liked what I've heard from the Laser Bitch EP as well as the bits and pieces I've heard of 'Cloak of Love' and DMM.

Sleigh Bells - Treats
I love it. Listened to it three times since I got it.

Marcel Khalife - Best of
Fairuz - Legend of the Best
Suggestions from NumberNineDream. I haven't listened to the Khalife one yet but the Fairuz material is very good.

Aztec Camera - High Land, Hard Rain
First listen wasn't really enough to form an opinion but certainly nothing to scoff at.

Belle & Sebastien - Tigermilk
Putting them off for so long needed to be rectified.

Chameleons - Script Of The Bridge
The band was recommended to me by a guy I met at a Dinosaur Jr. show.

Grandaddy - Sumday
Wasn't overly impressed on the first listen

Man Man - The Man in a Blue Turban with a Face
The vocals are unique, that's all I got from it so far.

Six Finger Satellite - The Pigeon Is The Most Popular Bird
Some enjoyable Post-Punk/a bit Hardcore with synths.

and some others,
Six Finger Satellite - Severe Exposure
The Monks - Black Monk Time
Crossed Out - Discography
Lou Reed - Transformer
Andrew Jackson Jihad/The Gunshy Split
Andrew Jackson Jihad/Apocalypse Meow
Ladytron - Lights and Magic
Ladytron - 604
The Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream
Run-D.M.C. - Raising Hell
Rockabye Baby! - Smashing Pumpkins/ The Cure
NoMeansNo - Mama/Betrayal, Fear, Anger, Hatred
The Dandy Warhols - Dandy's Rule, OK?

You should probably comment in my Rush reviews thread once you check out Hemispheres. Great album.

One thing that worries me...Siamese Dream? Please tell me this is just you re-downloading it after it went missing or something and not that you haven't listened to it before. Otherwise, get on it...now...

+81 · 07-09-2010, 02:20 PM

I've heard Cherub Rock, Disarm, and Today before, of course, but the rest is all new to me. Just picked up MC+IS too as I proceed through the discography.

FETCHER. · 07-09-2010, 02:21 PM

Forgot this. Justice - Cross. Because I have to download all my **** again. Expect alot of new albums from me in here tomorrow!
