Lagwagon - Resolve

I was a big fan in the 90s but I never heard this, their latest album from 05. The one prior to that, Blaze, I only picked up last year and played again today...I actually enjoyed it nearly as much as their classic stuff. So I hope I like this one.

Eh, it pretty much sucks. That's what I get for relying on first impressions.

Came out this week!

I've heard terrific things.
Is it worth it?
I've never listened to Dinosaur Jr.

Christ, next time I think about posting my opinions on albums I just I heard I'll think twice and try to impress you guys by saying what you wanna hear. Ive never really been into the Beastie Boys at all before. I find the vocals high pitched and whiny, I prefer Ill Communication because I think the music fits the vocals better.

License To Ill is probably my favorite Beastie Boys album, if you haven't checked it out.

Both very good albums. Not quite their best, but definitely not to be overlooked either.

Love the cover though! :love: But I can tell it's not something I would be into. The music, that is.

Few more things since yesterday...

The Budos Band - The Budos Band EP

Unwound - The Future of What

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...500_AA280_.jpg

Unwound - Challenge for a Civilized Society

It's funny how bands can grow on you. I bought Unwound's A Single History compilation probably 6 years ago, but never really got into it. I thought it was mostly sloppy with a few nice moments. I shelved it. Then last year or earlier this year I checked out New Plastic Ideas and it has been growing on me with each listen. I've also played Leaves Turn Inside You a few times but haven't really gotten into that style. Having gone in a more post-rock direction with that release, it's more of a grower if anything. So anyway I'm finally getting around to picking up some of their older albums, closer in style to New Plastic Ideas. Playing Fake Train right now for the first time and I'm really liking it.
