Jeru the Damaja - Wrath of the Math
I've been sleeping on this one for too long.

It's no The Sun Rises in the East, but it's still pretty solid. Jeru's pretty underrated as far as MC's go, but then again he's been sort of hit-or-miss for most of his career.

I've heard good things about this dude, but honestly, I got this entirely because of the title. We shall see how it holds up.

Crocodiles-Summer Of Hate. Not bad at all. Lo Fi Psychedelic new wave indie- sort- Ha! Ex members of The Plot To Blow Up The Eiffel Tower if that helps.

Black Metal but with a splash of Industrial and some melody. I think it's bloody great and a little different to many bands out there.

Owen- New Leaves

It's pretty amazing, but IMO At Home... is still his best.

Handsome Boy Modeling School- So...How's Your Girl?

I like their last album a bit more, but this one has some pretty epic turntabling and more straight-forward on the whole hip-hop aspect than White People.
Waterworld's flat-out AMAZING.

Surely you can say a little about the album?

I ordered a few CDs today, all of which I have on MP3 and are obviously good enough that I wanted physical copies. And seeing jackhammer's post right above, I can't just post and run! So I'll leave some comments.


Silver Jews - American Water
I've heard 3 of their albums and this is by far the one I enjoy most. Perhaps because Stephen Malkmus does a lot of the vocals.

Architeq - Gold + Green
Really been enjoying this one lately. Don't know quite how to describe it...electronic, kind of IDM, a bit of wonk, good bass, but chill. Funky with good melodies. Vocals on a couple of tracks (male and female on separate tracks), which I normally don't go for with a lot of electronic but they work really well here. His style reminds me a lot of Kelpe who I've been a big fan of the past year.

Not Breathing - The Black Old Pueblo
This dude makes a lot of his own hardware. He's been around a while, basically making experimental techno, sometimes ambient. He kind of straddles the fence between industrial and IDM...but his style varies a good bit from album to album. This is my personal favorite of the 3-4 I've heard, and includes collaborations with Jack Dangers (Meat Beat Manifesto) and Mark Spibey (Dead Voices on Air, Download, Beehatch, etc) among others.

Robert Logan - Cognessence
I don't remember how I heard of this guy, but he makes really nice IDM. Very intricate stuff, often dark, sometimes atmospheric yet he's not afraid of melodies. I hear some Autechre influence for sure, maybe Richard Devine too, and there is also a strong classical influence present.

Just ordered one more CD. A really nice electronic album from Spain. Sounds like a mixture of Plaid and Autechre.

EEDL - Everse

Bought

Anathema - A Natural Disaster

My favourite Anathema album. I actually picked up my 2nd favourite last week at the record store so finding this one there today was pretty cool.

The Fiery Furnaces - Blueberry Boat

I mostly bought this for the booklet with the lyrics, but it does feel nice to have an indie rock album in my mostly metal CD library.

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_5XikAIVUob...%281993%29.jpg

Type O Negative - Bloody Kisses

So I originally bought this album in like 2001 from the same place I was today, but sold it back to them in 2006 to help pay for gas. My library really is not complete without it.

Judas Priest - Jugulator

Pretty much the same deal with Type O Negative, had it, sold it, bought it back.

Suffice it to say the clerk was a little perplexed with the stack, metal, metal, metal, wtf?

I only listened to this album yesterday for the first time in a few months. I really like it and want to hear it full bitrate.
