I just watched some special on the making of Bulletin by Pitchfork. Made me want to listen. Love the Lips. LOVE! :)

That's a genuine surprise

yeah, all bar early who sucks (especially their Rock! era), Kinks have a few good songs but plenty of meh
dont get the Smiths, Ramones, fuck me i hate the manic street preachers, RHCP, pink floyd loads. i hate lots of things, but no one hates me for it because no one i know likes good music.

also, i bought a Cat Power album the other day (you are free) and while its not exactly thought of as classic Cat Power is thought of as pretty good (even Lee said so)
but it was pretty bland. except maybe 2 songs it was pretty dull

I've found that a lot of Matador stuff that's thought of as good is bland. That album was a favorite of mine when it first came out, and I think I'd still probably cry if I heard "I don't blame you", but yeah it is kind of mediocre.

agree, The Greatest is better imo.

I hate every album that ever came out, especially the ones that you love the most.

With Cat Power, start here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-omWlUVIA4

If you don't like this song, you don't like Cat Power. If you do, check out the following songs:

1. Rockets
2. Itchyhead
3. We All Die
4. Ice Water
5. Bathysphere
6. American Flag
7. Metal Heart
8. Cross Bones Style
9. I Don't Blame You
10. Free
11. Speak For Me

We all know that Steve Shelley and Tim Foljahn play on her first two records [Dear Sir and Myra Lee], right?

Dude McDude 02.07.2012 01:44 PM

Beatles
Bob Dylan
Flaming Lips
Chemical Brothers
Swedish band Kent (more like "cunt" to me)

Also back in the days i held a deep indifference towards british bands blur and oasis. How these two bands wound up in some sort of mutual dislike towards each other was even more profoundly incomprehensible. How can you call something shit when you're shit epitomized yourself?

The list goes on

I can't really get into the Beach Boys either. I like them, but only for about 5 minutes at a time.

Never heard that one.

Dummy by Portishead, although i havent tried listening to it in quite a long time.

Sebadoh III, a "classic" indie rock album. I bought the reissue more than 5 years ago and ive still never been able to get beyond 8 or 9 songs in a row without wanting to listen to someone else. Im not sure theres ever been an album ive paid full price for and listened to so little. Actually if someone in the London area wants to buy that off me do let me know.

Ah, I don't get that at all! III is my favorite, along with harmacy!

E. Noisefield 02.08.2012 04:29 PM

I hate Eric Clatpon and everything he's ever done, Cream or no Cream.

Except for that song from "the Color of Money" lol!

EVOLghost 02.08.2012 04:55 PM

Pavement sucks.

louder 02.10.2012 03:25 PM

Zeppelin never did much to me.

louder 02.10.2012 03:51 PM

^much better than Zeppelin.

fucking LUV Paranoid & Master of Reality.
