polvo is very cool. No one here would care what my top 5 EPs are.

gmku · 04.18.2007, 03:18 PM

It is harder because I probably don't own more than 5 EPs.

Savage Clone · 04.18.2007, 04:04 PM

Birdmen Of Alkatraz - Glidin' Off
Loop - Prisma Uber Europa
Nurse With Wound - Cooloorta Moon
Kendra Smith - The Guild Of Temporal Adventurers
Andreas Martin - Doppelpunkt Vor Ort

the ikara cult · 04.18.2007, 04:19 PM

Les Savy Fav - Rome/Emor
Pavement - Watery Domestic
Idlewild - Captain (sentimental reasons)

obviously not a top 5 but those are some im fond of

I feel the 5 song EP is the way most albums should have always been, its very rare that you hear an album and think that you couldnt appreciate it if it wasnt 12 tracks.

Cardinal Rob · 04.18.2007, 04:24 PM

Polvo are dull, dull, dull.

The Cramps - Can Your Pussy Do the Dog? (great cover)
Thinking Fellers Union Local 282 - The Natural Finger (on Ajax)
that'll be all

Good call with Polvo. Celebrate and This Eclipse are excellent. I would throw in Archers Vs Greatest of All Time. I love eps. nowadays all bands should put out eps only b/c,on the whole, no one is good enough for a full length.

Actually, it just seems that way because everyone has ADD now.

Hip Priest · 04.18.2007, 05:28 PM

Back in the day, before the advent of cds, an album was often only 40-50 minutes long, with maybe eight or nine tracks. With cds you get much more space to fill, so it's hardly surprising that some bands struggle.

Savage Clone · 04.18.2007, 05:31 PM

HP, I thought for sure you would be mentioning Propaganda in this thread.
(Happy belated birthday, by the way)

Hip Priest · 04.18.2007, 05:34 PM

Did Propaganda do any EPs? I've probably forgotten something really good by someone.

Thanks for the birthday wishes.
