Seether- Careless whisper

Got this stuck in my head on the car ride to work.

Aimee Mann - Amateur

I've been overdosing on Aimee Mann the last few weeks. I feel so guilty.

Not.

10,000 Maniacs - Eat For Two

I'm taking Blind Man's Zoo this week as the 10,000 Maniacs quota. I guess this qualifies as Gateservice.

Emiliana Torrini - I'm A Bad Luck A Woman

What the fuck she has RANGE?

EDIT:

Emiliana Torrini - The Man With The Golden Gun

What the fuck she has range.

ANOTHER EDIT:

Okay, this album is pretty hot.

Grefter · « **Reply #853 on:** September 15, 2009, 08:56:34 AM »

Yeah she is pretty fucking cool. No idea why I missed her for so long.

Speaking of which, think you can acquaint me with Me And Armini and Love In The Time Of Science? Torrents have been very uncooperative.

Dido - Sand In My Shoes

It's between this and No Angel for my favorite song of hers. Though I can't think of very many that I dislike at all.

Björk - Hidden Place

Vespertine is probably the Björk album I like the most for the purposes of moodiness. It has this crystalline hermetism that she doesn't seem to capture in any other album, even though Post and Homogenic feel more complete.

Siouxsie & the Banshees - Softly

Superstition is overproduced, nearly unrecognizable as a Siouxsie album and honestly sorta forgettable at times. However? It's also -really pretty- when it hits the right notes, and it's far more accessible than the rest of the discography.

'Til Tuesday - How Can You Give Up?

Everything's Different Now is really a preview for Aimee Mann's solo career. Weird listening to something that balances itself between being '80s and sounding like Mann's typical work off the lyrics she'd usually churn out, but it's pretty damned cool.

EDIT:

R.E.M. - Drive

I absolutely adore this song.

The singles from it (Shadowtime, Kiss Them For Me, Fear) are decent, at least. Can't speak for the rest of it.

Quadrophenia rocks faces.

It's not -bad- at all, and I think you'd probably like it a fair deal. Just I keep comparing it to, say, Hyaena, and A Kiss In The Dreamhouse, and Tinderbox. Particularly A Kiss In The Dreamhouse. I can't help but feel that the Banshees were kinda bored in Superstition.

10,000 Maniacs - Headstrong

Sierra · « **Reply #866 on:** September 17, 2009, 12:43:36 AM »

Well, I think they kinda stopped making music after that, so that's probably a reasonable supposition.

The Who: The Punk and the Godfather

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #867 on:** September 17, 2009, 12:46:36 AM »

They had one more album after Superstition and then split, so that's not far from the truth. I haven't even listened to The Rapture, I heard they were even more bored than on Superstition, which isn't a good thing.

EDIT: Right, musaks.

Emiliana Torrini - I'm A Bad Luck A Woman

Croucie D'oú Lá is goddamned sexy. Too bad it's so short, but it's high-quality.

Godspeed You Black Emperor! - something. Iunno, Pandora.

Sierra · « **Reply #869 on:** September 17, 2009, 01:29:30 AM »

Oh, yay. Thoughts, Toro? I like the band a lot, myself.

The Who: Doctor Jimmy

Taishyr · « **Reply #870 on:** September 17, 2009, 01:31:52 AM »

They are... Deerhoof -squeaky voice +length +serious. This is an even trade, which means I'm perfectly fine with them. >_>

Godspeed You Black Emperor - Providence

Okay this is pretty awesome.

Idly, Cid, is there a reason I still associate them with speed metal? I recall listening them to once earlier and getting that impression, but like fuck I remember what I was actually listening -to-.

Deerhoof? I know naught of this band.

And I dunno, Tai. The band name sure sounds like it belongs to a metal group, but for all that GYBE songs do occasionally have fast sections, I really don't think they qualify as metal.

The Who: The Rock

Taishyr · « **Reply #874 on:** September 17, 2009, 01:41:45 AM »

Deerhoof is a whimsical music group that would qualify as indie of the indies, i suspect.

Then again, they gave me some of my favorite song lyrics ever outside of Tom Lehrer:

Tale of the traitors;
Pretty pretty twin sisters.
Be kind, be shy were all lies.
Witty wicked destroyers.
Tale of killers.
They're killers.
Showed my back and so long.
