97. Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet:
Savvy Show Stoppers

Canadian instrumental neo-surf rock has never sounded so cool or really been done that much anyway. Canada isn't known for its beaches and sunny days but Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet seem to suck you into that world anyway.

Since I'm still earlier in the list would anyone mind if I took off the more known albums on my list in favor of more obscure albums? I mean Elliott Smith, Neutral Milk Hotel, etc all the stuff I use to talk about alot isn't on here because nothing on the old list is going to appear here but there's about ten or so albums that get discussed pretty frequently on there now.

Sounds good to me.

I'm really pissed I can't find a (full) video for Iambic 9 Poetry it's one of my favorite pieces of music I've heard recently and if the whole album was that good this would probably be number one. But oh well, there's really only one word I can use to describe this album (and Squarepusher in general) it's interesting and sometimes I don't like it but I never find myself listening to it and yawning.

I have been wanting to check out Square Pusher for a while now. Is this the best album to go with?

I couldn't stand this album. Really boring -not for me.

It has this kind of beyond lo-fi sound that Ariel Pink uses that I really don't like. I mean I like lo-fi because it sounds sincere, authentic and real. So this severe under production has the same affect on me as over production. It's just kind of gross. As far as musical content goes. It's a pretty solid album.

For those of you who don't think white kids can rap, listen to this. The production and beats are excellent and the lyrics are silly as they are brilliant.

They kind of sound like they look, dorky and cool as fuck. Good instrumentals are something special. And that one song from Kids in the Hall made me nostalgic. All in all a pretty damn good album. No special favorites and nothing I didn't like.
