MB June Comp: The Jovial Japes Of A Jaded Jamboree

Comus · 05-31-2009, 07:50 AM

Bootsauce and Dawntreader: had to skip
Scott Walker: Never been a fan but the song wasn't too bad
Mother Tongue: Not bad, but overly generic and angry for no reason. Also about 3 minutes too long.
Can: I like Can, but Delay 1968 has never caught my fancy. Again about 3 mintues too long, but sounds like Kings Of Leon's early albums.
Sigur Ros: I like me some sigur ros, but I always found it to be a bit too simple for what it is.
Caravan: Caravan is love. Great song if I do say so myself, definitely something I'd want in the compilation. About ten minutes too short.
Clutch: Pleasant enough stoner rock, a bit generic I know who loves this band though: Antonio
Jim O'Rourke: Pretty boring generic indie folkish meandering; Right up ethan's alley of course I doubt he contributed this time, but you never know. Overall pleasant but trying too hard to be "deep"
Yellow Machinegun: Album ends in a punkish japanese mess in a way only Jackhammer could envisage

Ok, I admit, this made me laugh.

Also, I'm gonna take a wild guess and say Caravan is yours. Could be because it's the only song you had anything really positive to say about.

I'm pretty sure Clutch was Antonio, I know he recently got most or all of their discography and was pretty vocal about his admiration for them.

Ok, it's for me to hop back on this bandwagon, I'm d/ling as we speak.
