I know you will, but the only problem is if I count you in every unreliable bastard will run in and want in and mess everything up. Treat it half as well as you do the 1up forums and youll be there in no time.

Is that iggy pop in your avatar?

I actually dont even really post much on there, I mostly lurk. But I will do so regardless.
Yeah, my avatar is the cover to Raw Power.

I'm thinking about joining this but I think my stuff has probably been listened to by everyone. I think I'll try it though.

Oh sure. I'll try and get some music that not everyone's heard.

I wont lie, thats a great cover.

NEW RULE: I am going to make a revision to the rules in this thread. Just to assure that everyone actually gets an album and isnt left in the dark by lazy incompetent partners. FROM THIS POINT ON you must PM me each week (before the end of Saturday) if you would like to participate in the upcoming weeks trade. I realize this is a bit of a hassle, but i am afraid if it stays as is then slowly people will forget and not send anything.

So pm by tomorrow if you'd like to be in next weeks!

Gunnels sent me Crime In Choir's The Hoop. It was a pretty good post-rock/math rock album with some very interesting instrument work. Pretty good music overall, but not something I'd listen to for a casual spin. 7/10.

I would like to do this as well if I'm worthy.

The End of the Beginning - God is an Astronaut from mojopinuk

I've been meaning to get into more post-rock lately so this was a good start. When I first listened to the album, it kind of slipped into background music becuase I was doing some other things but when I gave it a proper listen it was much more pleasing. I especially liked the piano which is involved in most tracks. There were also some really nice percussive tracks on it. The major problem I had with the album was that the songs became repetive because of their minimalistic style. If the album was a few tracks shorter I wouldn't have noticed this as much. Overall, this was a good album but I don't think I'll seek out much more of this music. Thanks mojopinuk for introducing me to some more post-rock.

I've listened to a couple of God is an Astronaut albums and tbh they were just very bland to me.
