Of course you can. Try turning it up loud on something other than headphones and it is easily apparent.

Madlib Medicine Show #3: Beat Konducta in Africa

I just bought Songs for the Deaf by Queens of the Stone Age. I've listened to my pirated version (oops! is that allowed here?) of the album to death, and on a whim decided that I should show my support for the awesome band.

Can't seem to stop playing God is in the Radio.

The Winter Of Mixed Drinks

Swallow the Sun - Hope

http://www.sindustries.co.uk/wp-cont...lbum-cover.jpg

I can tell the difference on my high end headphones between lossy and lossless formats.... is it big enough of a difference to bother me. Not really. There's not enough compromise in the sound quality that i don't miss the overall qualities of the music, the bass is nice and deep, the treble tones are nice and sharp, and the mid range is fine. Hey it's all still way better than grandpa's gramophone...

Fantastic album

Weird, I just ordered the same thing! Been waiting for this one for a long time, should be here in a few days.

:D I still prefer The Midnight Organ Flight, but after a few listens I hope I'll love The Winter Of Mixed Drinks just as much.

Ooooh, a friend of mine loves The Tallest Man On Earth's debut. I've given it a listen and I'm not really into it.

Do you like it? If so what do you like about it?

Calle 13-Los De Atras Vienen Conmigo
http://esp4.com/wp-content/uploads/2...nmigo-2008.jpg

-so far i'm really liking it, i really don't see why people say these guys are still reggaeton when alot of the beats and instrumentation is so much more.

Death From Above 1979-You're a Woman, I'm a Machine
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_y2jXCBhY03...Above+1979.jpg

-love the bass and the vocals working together, it's heavy and at the same time accesibly dancable

-got this on a spur of the moment, gonna give it a listen tommorow

Last album I bought was justin biebers new cd my world 2.0.... it was for my little sister.. I swear lol.. seriously tho the last album I bought for myself was fall out boys greatest hits album "believers never die"

Nice!! :)
I’m not much of a fan of a lot of the tech. deathgrind type stuff they helped open the floodgates for but this is a real gem. Their Effigy of the Forgotten album is pretty flawless as well.

Just picked up:

MASOCHIST - History (2007 compilation)

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000O75VM6.jpg

Been on a serious Wire kick recently and they are fast approaching my favourite bands list. Every release is that little bit different. Never a band to rest on their laurels and fans of all manner of guitar music can find something by them that they would like. Incredibly underrated band.

I love both albums, I like the debut more though. I think I mostly like it for it's simplicity and it's lyrics, so natural, at times dark at times gentler, his voice takes a lot of getting used to but I enjoy it.

I just downloaded this:
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3vOU94yccT...p%27n+jazz.jpg

because lately I've been really interested in hardcore/emo, I like this album because it's more upbeat, but still delightfully noisy.

Excellent call. Every time I go to a record store I check for any Beat Konducta releases I don't have. I don't think it's possible to go wrong with any of them, Madlib is a ****ing genius.

And you can never go wrong with Cap'n Jazz :)

You prefer their debut, do you think The Midnight Organ Flight is their debut? That's their second album just incase you didn't know. But yeah I agree with the lyrics, the lyrics in The Midnight Organ Flight are just so simple yet they mean so much.

Hmm, I'll no doubt give it another listen. His voice is definitely distinctive and different. :D

The last two days have seen me busy with downloading new stuff, based on recommendations from some people from here, work, and RYM:

Ice Cube - Greatest Hits (2001)
Gillian Welch - Time (The Revelator) (2001)
Gillian Welch - Hell Among the Yearlings (1998)
Pulp - Different Class (1995)
Lynyrd Skynyrd - One More From the Road (1976)
James Carr - You Got My Mind Messed Up (1967)
Sparklehorse - Vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot (1995)
Volbeat - Guitar Gangsters & Cadillac Blood (2008)
A Fine Frenzy - One Cell in the Sea (2007)
The Bats - Fear of God (1991)
New Order - Substance (1987)
No Address - Time Doesn't Notice (2005)

I had no idea this got leaked! I'm all over this like a mofo.

I've never had much of a liking for folk but there's something about him that makes him different.. for whatever reason I enjoy him thoroughly. I hope I'll like it as much as I do the original!

Oh, I was talking about The Tallest Man on Earth...yeah in terms of Frightened Rabbit, I love Midnight Organ Flight, and yes I do know it was their second album, it was just the first one I heard. In terms of the new one vs. the second album, they are both fantastic and I can't decide which one I like better.

Name "Internet Killed The Audio Star"
http://www.cmdistro.com/images/xlarge/33096.jpg

I just found this band/album a few days ago. I'm really enjoying it, it reminds me of BTBAM and The Dillinger Escape Plan a lot. It's heavier than both though, and looking to be one of my favorite albums this year.

http://images.uulyrics.com/cover/r/r...recordings.jpg

I havn't listened to it yet, but I'm loking forward to it.

Carbon Leaf - Echo Echo

http://images.uulyrics.com/cover/c/c...-echo-echo.jpg

MusicPhantom's review in his journal (and the kindly-provided link) turned me on to this one. Sounds like it'll be pretty cool.

Arovane - Tides

http://www.plong.com/MusicCatalog%5C...0-%20Tides.jpg

Some fairly lively-sounding IDM judging by the one track I've heard beforehand. Another one that seems like it'll be pretty cool.

http://vitaminrecords.com/web/images...s/8918_lrg.jpg

Don't ask me why. But I was curious to what it would sound like. Not Bad.
The classical side of the beast.

My mum would enjoy that

LateNightTales - The Cinematic Orchestra

This album inspired me to download the whole series to date. So needless to say that's all I'll be listening to for the next couple of weeks. If anybodies interested in checking out one of the albums Cover Versions is being offered free on their website: Cover Versions - FREE CD OFFER . Homepage . LateNight Tales

^ Looks pretty solid to me. Thanks for posting!

And that reminds me...
I think it was you who posted this in the Album's You're Digging thread:
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...500_AA300_.jpg

Which is my most recent download, and upon a first listen, I like it quite a lot. So thanks for that too.

From the recent record store trip:

Lightning Bolt - Ride The Skies
I've had this for so long, it's about time I went out and bought it. Still haven't decided which I like more out of this and Hypermagic Mountain. Definitely my favourite LB album artwork.

http://static.boomkat.com/images/212790/333.jpg
Boris and Sunn O))) - Altar
Some collaborative drone.

http://www.shellshock.co.uk/images/sleeves/GR967.jpg
AIDS Wolf - Dustin' Off The Sphinx
Some noise rock. I have The Lovvers LP which I quite like so I thought I'd give this a go.

Lost Bodies - δο ντίεση

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sOm1rcDGtw.../Do+Ntiesi.jpg

Some Greek noise rock/post-punk I found while looking for the below link. Needless to say, no real idea what I'm in for.

Dali's Car - The Waking Hour

http://www.amiright.com/album-covers...aking-Hour.jpg

And after months of being obsessed with Japan and David Sylvian, I've finally got this one.

Peter Murphy was involved in that too, right? I've alway been curious what they sounded like.

Yeah, Pete Murphy and Mick Karn. I can send the link I found along if you like but, word of warning, judging by the filesize the sound quality's not that great.

Woodhands - Remorsecapade

Not sure yet, but based on what I'm hearing so far this is really interesting. All sorts of electronic styles, all with a dream pop feel.

Streetlight Manifesto - 99 Songs of Revolution Vol. 1 (2010)

Oh **** yes.

The last album I bougt was Ki by the wonderful Devin Townsend.... I've had a downloaded copy of this album for some time now and i love it to pieces already... hence, i decided it waqs time the artist got his dues for it, and in return, i guess i get some really nice artwork and the same music at a better bitrate...

the last thing i downloaded was Autoditacker by Mouse On Mars...it just now finished so I'll have to check it out! You never know what to expect from those crazy Deutschlanders!

http://asbestosrecords.files.wordpre...yheartojoy.jpg

On a whim...we'll see how it is, I've been pretty interested in their style of music lately, see if they are as good as some of the other stuff I found.
