don't undersell the real early stuff, stereolab made some really great shoegaze/dream pop in the beginning. cobra and phases worth it for blue milk alone. music for the amorphous body study centre, fab four suture, the nww collaborations.....there's a lot of filler and their best stuff seems to find itself in really odd places but definitely worth stumbling through.


 

joachim nordwall turning up on entr'acte with another blinding record, great run at the moment.

The Stones:

Beggars Banquet and Let it Bleed and singles in between. I want to hate guitars but Keef is riff master. can't hate. greatest music ever.

Mortte, you should check that Thelonious Monk album. dude balls and dances. nefarious style.

evollove 09.04.2016 01:54 PM

Random Fugazi. Probably the most testosterone-y band I listen to.

I can't understand 75% of what they're singing, especially Guy. Now I know what singing can sound like for Mortte and others for whom English is a second language. "Something something garble chair? stop yeah all night."

you are loving this soft ass bullshit radiopop and you slam Drake and Future? Make up your mind.

d.sound 09.08.2016 09:22 AM

i like that sonic youth appeals to such a broad spectrum of musical tastes.

pepper_green 09.08.2016 05:00 PM

goddamn trolls!

I agree, we should attack them before they express and expound their hate on 311 and hoobastank.

fuck u trolls!!!

louder 09.08.2016 06:09 PM

Googled 311.

 


Why do two of them look like Eminem?

pepper_green 09.08.2016 06:12 PM

it's proto Eminem dude. it was the mid-late 90s. pre Carson Daily.

A Thousand Threads 09.08.2016 06:28 PM

a friend of mine gave me a pretty extensive collection (around 40gb) of old gospel, blues and folk stuff mostly from the us south.
it's basically all i've been listening to for 2 month.

right now i'm obsessed with nervous norvus.
 

nervous norvus

hilarious stuff.

I'm shamelessly listening to and enjoying the fuck out of this:

 


I know it's the kind of indie rock that is almost lame by nature at this point, but holy hell, this little nerd makes it seem like the Strokes never should have existed. Everything intersting about them is here, better and longer and more genuine sounding.

If I had to come up with an equation, it would be CSH = (Strokes + Guided by Voices) x Television.

I like it, and I liked last year's album.

louder 09.09.2016 01:16 PM

^ Still need to give this a listen.

You know what he meant.
Also, what did Em have out in '95? That's pre-Invincible.

Either way, I just see a couple white dudes with bleached hair.

You definitely should. I guess I don't know enough about your taste in rock-type-stuff to say if I think you'll like it or not, but honestly, based on my own taste, I would never guess that I'd enjoy it so much.

I read about Will Toledo and CSR before Teens of Style came out, and got the impression it would be some really silly, late model Weezer, power pop bullshit. Everything about it, including that terrible "band" name, made me think it was just too young for me.

I think it was on a Sonic Youth-based Apple Music station that I first heard the album. It really *is* kind of silly, power poppy shit, but it's expertly crafted and had a ton of personality... more than you'd think would be possible for anyone trying the whole subdued, ironic tension thing in 2016. I'm not about to claim it's genius, but it's effective. His riffs and the way he uses his voice make the music work, and his willingness to write 8 minute songs gives him a lot more wiggle room than the Strokes ever had. He touches on everything from Sebadoh to Fugazi to fucking Fleeywood Mac, and it's hard to say what his biggest inspiration is. But every time I put either of the LPs on, I am very glad I did.

Ian Willaim Craig - Centres

 


This is fucking great. I'd recommend it. It seems to fall under the "electronic" heading according to most sites, but you needn't be a fan of electronic or techno to dig this.

evollove 09.22.2016 12:45 PM

No fucking Beatles albums on youtube? Some individual songs, but I can't play an album start to finish.

Wait. Can't find "Strawberry Fields." WTF?

Funny thing is, there are cover versions of entire albums and a lot of listeners can't seem to tell. Here's HELP! for example. All the albums seem to have been covered similarly.

Weird, no?

no! it's the beatles album dude. it's just been fucktard manipulated in the first degree. I know cuz I've heard Help a buzillion freaking fucking times. I know every nook and cranny.

funny enough they did do the kinda stuff your talking about in the 60's with bands like the Beach Boys. getting another fake hack band to play the hits. I learned this from Mark Prindle.

evollove 09.22.2016 05:46 PM

On closer listen, it's a hodge podge of stuff, to avoid copyright infringement, I guess.

There ARE covers in there; the title track is obviously someone else. Some are weird versions culled from Rockband somehow. And some, like Yesterday, are the real thing fucktard manipulated in the first degree.

ALL the Beatles albums have received this treatment, yet the real things are nowhere to be found. Weird, I insist.
