Spending spree

[Sir Frizz]

Kind of shot yourself in the foot eh?

EDIT:// Anything by Jimmy Hendrix

 

[mr.Blacky]

Counting Crows? why are they not the list.
Presidents of the USA (for a laugh)
Zappa
I also saw Siamese dreams but why not Mellon Collie and the Infinite Saddness from The Smashing Pumpkins?

/edit ohhhh Jimi (oops my mistake)

 

[echo]

It's Jimi fs

 

[xenon2000]

Air - 'Moon Safari'; one of my favourites that isn't mentioned. Pretty definitive record for most things downtempo...

 

[xane]

Republica ?

 

[GDW]

Warning... Beardy alert!
























Black Sabbath - Sabbath Bloody Sabbath



Well I did warn you

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Slipknot mp3s... be lucky I'm saving you.

• Godspeed You Black Emporer! - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven (or anything else GYBE!)
• Sigur Ros - Agaetis Bryun
• Four Tet - Pause
• Amen - We Have Come For Your Parents
• Mogwai - Rock Action (Their latest - but anything will do really)
• World Dance - XPRS YRSLF (Mixed by Andy C) (Shockingly bad name, shockingly bad image, some top quality tunes though.)
• Aphex Twin - Drukqs
• Jungle Massive/Jungle Massive 21st Century Breakbeat (Mixed by DJ Hype) (Same as above)

Have a look at them.

 

[dysfunction]

I think you should get all of Dolly Partons Albums!

 

[Wij]

Just the things noone else has mentioned. Mainly fine ch00nz above so far.

Roni Size - does noone else like him ? I do. :/

Slayer - Reign in Blood (mad album)

Rolling Stones - Let it Bleed & Exile on Main Street are the essential ones but most are good.

Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie and the Infinte Sadness.

Aretha Franklin - Aint Never loved a man... SOOOO GOOOOD !!1

That'll do for starters...

hmm I liked Iron Maiden was a was a young teen too but it kinda seems cheesey now

"I am he, the bornless one, that fallen angel watching you !"

"Babylon, the Scarlett Whore, I'll infiltrate you gratitide."

Or something like that (who remembers), it all seems a trifle cringeworthy now. Not that Slayer's lyrics were literary masterpieces but for some reason bands like Slayer don't make me cringe as badly as Iron Maiden. Probably cos noone could tell what Tom Araya was singing without a lyric sheet handy

Another reason was that back in my day the Thrash/Death Metal fans had proper long-all-round hair. Whereas the Maiden fans tended to have greasy Mullets. :/

Yes, my sweat-encrusted 'Eddie' T-shirts vanished long ago

 

[old.Kez]

Sounds currently whirring around my house:

Daft Punk's Homework.
Homework is as different from Discovery as Chalk is from cheese. Both are great, in their own way.

Plaid's Not For Threes and Rest Proof Clockwork
equally wonderful non-intrusive background music. If music were an addiction, be sure you'd be snorting these.

Led Zeppelin Four (Runes).
You don't have this? It ought to be etched on the brain of every living being. Its great, in a upsettingly dated way.

Pop Will Eat Itself's Two Fingers My Friends.
I won't even attempt to write anything worthwhile here, if you have the money spare; it must be purchased and cherished, if only for Ich Bin Ein Auslander.

 

[old.UKTwister]

The Strokes - Is This It
BRMC - forgotten the name
Incubus - science
Electric Soft Parade - Holes In The Wall
King Adora - Vibrate You
Nickelback album - forgotten name again (the one with how u remind me, too bad etc..)
WhiteStripes - Red Blood Cells

How You Remind Me is a fantastic track. As is the live version of Outside by Staind, despite Fred Durst's attempts to screw it up.

Honestly, I've only listened to Left Behind a few times. I downloaded them (along with Linkin Park and Korn albums) because I got a new HDD :/

I also have to say, I've only heard of Mogwai, Amen, Sigur Ros and Aphex Twin in that list Wazz, and I thought I had a fuckload of musical knowledge ;( I shall check some out!

I'm perfectly un-retarded, I'm 16 (young!) and I own one (radiohead) hoody, so ner!

I really like Brown Paper Bag and I'm sure I've heard more of Roni Size's stuff. Must check more out. I also must buy Reign In Blood, have been meaning to do so for some time now, thanks!

All of these I shall check out. Haven't heard of Plaid, though. Led Zep, Daft Punk and Pop Will Eat Itself all rule.

Long post, and I bet no one read it all

Cheers for all the recommendations, have added quite a few to my basket on Amazon. I handed in my notice at work today too. Shit.

 

[Xtro]

Wij, I like Roni Size too. So that's two of us in the UK

 

[Scooba Da Bass]

I sorta like Roni, it'd be better if he decided if he was gonna be jazzy or not

 

[throdgrain]

I always preferred Led Zep 3 myself, its an album I still play today.
I went to see Iron Maiden when they was a support band, and they were cheesy then too .
Hey look, a music thread with something in it ive heard of, omg

No one ever mentions the Talking Heads any more, yet i thought they were great in their day.

 

[Sar]

Why does no-one ever talk about that Beethoven chap anymore, I think he's great!

*cough*

 

[throdgrain]

Beethoven ? I dont like that new-fangled type music ...

 

[Wij]

Ah yes. The 5th. The eternal dichotomy in the first movement between tho motto representing fate and the horn call representing hope. As the horn call appears throughout the movement it becomes distorted to sound more and more like the motto. Clever chappie old Ludwig.

 

[Summo]

Heh heh heh. Movement...

 

[Wij]

 

[Nibbler]

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club!

Jimmy Eat World!

David Gray!

JASON LO!!!
He's Malaysian, so you know he's cool.

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Mank: If you think some of those bands are unheard of, you should check out all the other shit I've got. Such as Japanese noise bands!

 

[old.Kez]

Its come to my attention you [mank] have neither Miocene EP down there. That needs addressing.

I thought some of the music I listened to was obscure :|]

Yes. Yes, this does need addressing. I'll get right onto it.
