I haven't been on the internet for about 3000 years now and was just wondering who the current bands everyone is dissing or digging at the moment.
Sure I could look through a few threads but I am very lazy.
THANKS!
Oh yeah emphasis on new bands please.
Right now?
Johnny Foreigner - amazing stuff.
Other than thet, mostly Mclusky.
^^^^
exactly this
pink noise
lots and lots of pink noise
all i'm listening to
is the Bon Iver album. incredible stuff.
Listening to that at the moment...
utterly spectacular. Could well be my favourite album of the year thus far.
currently listening to some of this as well
It's fairly decent, but isn't blowing me away, like it has done for lots of others.
I'm with ye
It's really nice in an atmospheric sense and has great dynamics, but sometimes I find the layered vocals a little jarring. Probably get used to that though...
It's good stuff
and it sounds like it's just been recorded right next to you, which is always really nice. The layered vocals do take a bit of getting used to, though.
joe - www.anewbandaday.com
A mix of
Husker Du, Test Icicles, Paleface, DMX, Supertramp, Dillenger Escape Plan, L-Vis 1990, Isley Bros, Rusko, Pulp and Les Incompetents.
Right now? TLC - Unpretty.
The Night Marchers
Down I Go
Bats
Adebisi Shank
Right now I'm listening to Devo.
Recently I've been listening to The Whiskers, who are really great. Also Jeff Lewis and the newest Nick Cave record.
^Nick Cave's new one is immense
Lie Down Here and Midnight Man rock like mothers.
The National- Boxer is unbelievable, got into them when I saw them do Fake Empire on Letterman
And random songs I'm obsessed with right now: California Dreamin' (coz of Chungking Express) Mamas and Papas
and If There Is Something by Roxy Music. That song is perfect.
It's the only one I've heard
But it's pretty great.
JoFo, The Night Marchers, Dan le Sac vs Scroobius Pip
oooh, what do you think of
The Night Marchers?
Really impressed actually!
Not as instant as RFTC, but utterly infectious once they get hold of you.
Totally!
It's just great to hear Speedo singing again. Reminds me of a less angry sounding Hot Snakes, mixed with a bit of The Sultans. Some tracks kill for a bit of trumpet/sax action in the background though.
You going to any of the London shows in June?
Indeed! Going to the 100 Club one.
You going to any?
Possibly the 6th June date....
would rather watch them at the 100 Club, but not being a London type there are logistical work related difficulties on the other nights!
currently:
deafening - From Monument To Masses
no age at the moment
in preparation for tomorrow night.
Right now...
Edith Frost - It's A Game, throughout the week I've mostly been listening to the latest installation of the alchemy index by thrice, idiot pilot's new one and test-icicles.
At the moment
Earth 2 is really doing it for me.
I got the Isobel Campbell / Mark Lanegan album this week and that is very much my cup of tea also.
JoFo
and The Scare
:D
A Place To Bury Strangers
Santogold
Lene Lovich (but she's not new)
Right now: Born Ruffians
in general: Tokyo Police Club, Modest Mouse, Glass Candy, Lykke Li, Times New Viking, Los Campesinos...
right now
boards of canada, but at the moment in general the new death cab for cutie, tired irie, fuck buttons, kyte, jeniferever.
Leviathan
the Verräter 2CD. Not many fast songs but still good. The kids love/dig it. He/the band is/are newish.
Jucifer
They rock. Or should be that be 'rawk'? Regardless, they are very loud, and the singer has scary painted on eyebrows. Win.
rival schools / samiam / the hold steady
pretty much on rotation...
chuck in a bit of the dismemberment plan as well.
x
Samiam and The Hold Steady so much right now!
I honestly can't decide whether I love Separation Sunday, Almost Killed Me or Boys and Girls in America the most.
I was playing Your Little Hoodrat Friend on my iPod as I walked through a deeply fucked up part of Bournemouth earlier. There were prostitutes beginning to congregate in the alleys and some junkies fighting in the street, I felt like the song was coming alive....sounds a bit mental, but I swear it was fucking magical!
As for Samiam, I will never be able to work out what my favourite album is.....I probably listen to Astray the most, but Soar, Clumsy and You are freaking me out all have a strong claim too.
kthxbai!
yesyes!
the hold steady are the happiest band in the world!
<3
the vines
winning days... no indie cool attached to that little disc but honesty is everything
Been listening constantly to Jens Lekman
and Electrelane, some Ricardo Villalobos and Holy Fuck - that's a great LP to get.
Well...
i'm obsessed with Devil sold his soul!!
Lots of M83,
Interspersed today with some Blood Brothers.
No Age, Jofo and Broken Records
No Age especially - Nouns is amazing
at the mo...
i currently love the Neon Neon album, also Bengas 'Diary of an afro warrior' is very good. Also check out Jamie Woon, has some lovely tracks, + the burial remix of his cover of Spirits is very good.
Heads up
Dan Le Sac Vs. Scroobius Pip
''Angles''.
Pretty much
The Rubinoos best of on repeat. It contains more powerpop goodness than this man knows what to do with!
Also: the new Torche one, I Get Wet by Andrew WK and Very Emergency by The Promise Ring.
Aereogramme.
Duck!

well, seeing as you asked
the volume on my computer seems to have gone a bit wrong
and it needs to be turned up all the time to have the music at a reasonable levels...
...and
when there is no music on
like now
there is a sort of buzzing
but with shifts
and stabs
sounds like it might make a nice ambient part for a song, with some fluttery beats and acousitc guitar
we could be almost a Tunng tune.
Only sometimes, I think I can hear voices, trapped, in the short wave, that is actually a kind of limbo, possibly for suicides or ex members of The Fall...
I dunno. It is early.
Where's my Subtle album.
I want it now
Ladies and Gentlemen
Mr Serge Gainsbourg
i'm listening to a band called The Outline
nobody else will be though, so there'll be little in the way of dissing or discussion around them, i'm definitely digging them though.
Ill try the outline for you
we can double the dis lovers of the outline in one day.
i dont mean lovers in another way though
drats
Astral Social Club
found them on myspace a while back but never really listened. its really good stuff. just experimental stuff.
