FaSho sent me (last week):

Talib Kweli - Beautiful Struggle

This album is a very good album lyically. I had problems getting into some of the beats. Kweli is definately a good flow artist, sitting on the fence between hardcore gangsta rap that doesn't appeal to intelligent hip-hop fans, and intellectual rhymes which normally don't appeal to the 'gangstas'. Kweli has made an album here that can appeal to both crowds equally. Keeping his rhymes tight, meaningful, and intelligent. Yet not giving up any of his street cred. Overall a decent hip-hop album I don't plan on deleting.

6.8/10

With the large amount of people who come and go on this site, one of the rules that was put into place when this started was a 100 post minimum.

well anticipation sent me

Julio Gutierrez & His Orchestra-Progressive Latin

well all i have to say is that i loved this record

! the jazz fueled Latino compositions that were just as beautiful and well done as it was fierce and hard hitting. Guitierrez knows how to lead his band, with everyone keeping the whole thing going while each instrument had their own spots to get noticed and play around. this is exactly the kind of stuff i like, and i couldn't ask for more.

i knew you would like it.

my fellow ant sent me independent worm saloon by butthole surfers, a band that i've seen championed and obsessed over by a lot of people i know. oddly enough, i'd never heard anything by them until now. i thought the album was a good example of the grittier, punk-influenced side of alt rock, and although it may not be my favorite album of all time i didn't think it was particularly horrible. a so-so album in my eyes, with some good tracks like the wooden song and you don't know me.

overall, if i had to give it a rating, i'd say maybe like a 6/10.

Crash sent me :
Versions by Posion The Well
The band name sounded familiar, but I couldn't remember why until I saw the tracklisting. The opening track Letter Thing, I had heard on a compilation and really really hated. I decided to listen through anyway and was mildly impressed. It's definatley a break from the cliche breakdown-post hardecore style that is popular nowadays, but there were points when I just couldn't get into the more experimental elements. Sorry crash, maybe its a grower.
