Butch Walker- "The Weight of Her."

Good song. The moral of the story to me is "Don't let other people's issue fuck with your day. Just don't give a shit."

David Bowie - Letter to Hermione.

Das Racist - Rainbow in the Dark

Despite my unreasonable (?) dislike for the city of New York, Das Racist really makes me want to visit Queens so I can ~~stalk~~ see them.

After perusing and discovering more artists, I will soon listen to the Hood Internet's mash of TYM and CSD Dougie. I expect greatness.

What's Wrong With Me.

I've got a list if you want to skim over it, Gref. Kinda long for a full read.

That is fine. I quite like reading.

Angus & Julia Stone - The Beast

Guess what, I fell in love with an album opener again.

Angus & Julia Stone - The Beast

Definitely fell in love with the opener. Good thing the rest of the album is just swell too.

Mumford and Sons - Awake My Soul

I haven't listened to an album that's far bigger than the sum of its parts since like Lost In Space from Aimee Mann. Sigh No More is definitely an example of such an album, though. Amazing emotional charge.

Grefter · « **Reply #689 on:** December 18, 2010, 12:08:35 AM »

Really? There was songs in there that I could chop and change out without having even noticed or cared honestly. Good album though. Look forward to their next piece of work.

Metric - Grow Up and Blow Away.

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #690 on:** December 18, 2010, 12:42:43 AM »

Truth be told, in terms of songs, I honestly don't think much of individual parts there. You may well be right about that (and I even agree looking at it a bit closer). However, as I said, the album is more about its emotional voltage throughout whatever songs it has rather than having good individual pieces all the way. That's how it's bigger than the sum of its parts, since it -should- be smaller than it actually is objectively.

Mumford and Sons - Little Lion Man

This is one of the good individual pieces, though.

EDIT: I also have to note that Lost In Space is also bigger than Sigh No More in how it actually has no songs that are individually poor, and they all build a very cohesive whole to the work. But then, Aimee Mann and elegance.

Elton John: Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding

Grefter · « **Reply #692 on:** December 18, 2010, 03:33:05 AM »

There is a reason Little Lion Man won the Hottest 100 this year. I disagree with people that it is the best on the album (The Cave is probably better), but yeah they have a couple of invididual songs on there.

Hole - Northern Star

The Cave? The Cave is among the best in the album, I agree. Not sure which is better between Little Lion Man and The Cave, though. Speaking of which.

Mumford and Sons - The Cave

Northern Kings: We Don't Need Another Hero

A Scandinavian power metal supergroup covering the theme song to a Mad Max movie? Cheese level = saturation point.
