Colour Coded Album Reviews

Ha! I had a feeling I'd be seeing Disortion on this list. It's probably my least favorite Magnetic Fields album but I still listen to it every now and then. I really hope Stephin goes back to the awesome lo fi synthy stuff like on Holiday or Get Lost.. but as you said nothing will ever compare to 69 Love Songs.

thanks guys!

pmo, why do you think it's their best album? what don't you like about remain in light and the latter ones? i'm curious. we don't seem to agree that often : )

A few more suggestions:

Tom Wait's latest

Explosions in The Sky's first album - how strange, innocence

Zappa and The Mothers of Inventions - We're only in it for the money's alternate cover:

All three suggestions have been queued under Red, Blue and Yellow respectively : )

Thanks 333! You're beyond awesome.

I need suggestions for PURPLE, anybody got anything?

Not as good as their first, but Agitation Free's "2nd" is still pretty good krautrock/prog.

i'll check it out. for some reason the cover art didn't load right away so that's why i'm double posting : P

I tend to switch off listening to the other stuff, even though it's not bad at all, but i find there's a lot more hooks in the first two albums and the music really suits Bryne's jerky sort of style.
