I was rummaging through my dad's CD collection and thought I'd download a couple albums.

Listening to this one now. It's alright.

I'm looking forward to listening to this one. I've always been meaning to get into his stuff.

Just bought a couple of oldies on discount that have been on my wish list for ages:
Prince - Sign o' the Times
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon

And ordered a brand new one. Still waiting for it to arrive:
Chickenfoot - Chickenfoot

A lot of fuss about the last one. I just hope it's not disappointing. Will see them live in two weeks.

Don't know how this guy managed to pass my ears for all these years, cool thing is he's playing on Monday, if I like it I may fork up the 15 bucks to go see him live.

He puts on a fantasic show, you should definitely go.

6underground 06-12-2009 10:30 PM

Good luck to you.

I'm going to have to, not only to assuage the guilt for downloading his discography but to enjoy myself (and perhaps smoke some pot).

When I saw him I was flashed by a drunk hippie lady, so I hope you get the same kind of treat.

Yeah, Matisyahu is really great, but I haven't heard his EP.

Not too crazy about Tobacco Road but every other song on this album is pretty much the real deal. I give it 4 stars.

Ben Wa - Disciples of Retro-Tech

I discovered this artist a few days ago in one way or another, and then it just so happens that there was a track by them/him/whatever on a mix I played since then. So I decided to move on it, but haven't played it yet.

Arctic Monkeys- Beneath The Boardwalk
Great demos, but some songs seem very lackluster you wouldn’t expect them to go on to be hits 'I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor' I’m looking at you.

Saccharine Trust - We Became Snakes (1986)

fusion of jazz and hardcore, comes off sounding funky and dirty as hell. easily one of the best records SST has ever produced (and that's saying something). Joe Baiza is swiftly becoming one of my favorite guitarists.

let me know if you want an up.

The Abominable Homan 06-13-2009 04:17 PM

[Pretend there's an image of the cover here, it won't let me post one until I make more posts]

The Mars Volta - Octahedron

Was very disappointed by this one, I've loved all of their other albums (excluding things like Scab Dates).

What didn't you like about it? I think it's definitely better than Amp.

Well, I'm very strange compared to most The Mars Volta fans. I actually consider Amputechture their best; I've only met one other person who agrees.

I just found Octahedron boring, it seemed to me like they're getting lazy or something. I know they wanted to go for something different and less crazy, but I don't think they pulled it off well.

However, to be completely honest I've only gotten to give Octahedron a single listen, so my opinion may change. I've been sick recently and at the moment I'm actually at Disney World, so I've gotten a lot less listening time than I normally do. I'll give you a more informed opinion when I can.

EDIT: I'm giving it a second listen right this moment actually.

scottsy 06-13-2009 08:39 PM

Listening to the new Placebo... and hey I gotta admit I've always been a fan of the band, but this is REALLY, really good! The whole sound is more authentic, passionate, less polished and there's more diversity in the tracks and its just ****in fun to listen to, definitely doesn't get weighed down at all.... and Brian Molko, love him or hate him, sounds way more urgent this time around...

The Abominable Homan 06-13-2009 09:22 PM

Alright so after further listening to Octahedron, I've decided it's not as bad as I originally thought.

Is it TMV's worst album? In my eyes, absolutely.

Does that mean it's bad? Not really.

It may grow on me more, but I think it will always be my least favorite (of all the current releases). Cotopaxi is my favorite song, but it feels so out of place. I think everything is fairly consistent, just it very rarely reaches the greatness they've often had nearly all the way through their older albums, in my opinion.

Also, to be more on topic, I just got Maldoror - She.
