MySpace.com - The Not-So Official Joanna Newsom Page - US - Folk / Indie / Alternative - www.myspace.com/morgansnewsom I can imagine it sounding good, but is she one of the chipmunks?

Ths Isis remix comp is also fabby.

Bet it's shite.

For Isis, Oceanic and Panopticon are both comletely fantastic - the new one is a big let-down IMHO. Red Sparrowes are more mellow, but still very good. I second the "...Soundless Dawn" recommendation.

What he said. They'll set up any system you like and let you test-run it too....

I reckon they bank on Radiohead having a reasonable fanbase that will automatically shell out for the DiscBox, which despite being 40 gets you a decent amount of physical stuff, plus bonus choons. Plus if it's only through the website, is there a label taking a cut? They could rake it in! The penny-pinchers like myself MAY like it enough to buy some other stuff? Jonah Matranga used to do sliding-scale prices allowing people to choose their own price too (within limits)....

Awesome - loved The Crocketts and the first Crimea album was quite good too. Freebee! Davey Crockett/Crimea is proper mental. In a good way.

Surely thats because no one will PAY for a Charlatans CD anymore? I'm having the new Radiohead one for free - I would never buy it anyway, so they're not losing out....

Downloaded this offa torrents cos I'd heard the name about - seriously great death metal with a (small) breakbeat influence. Well paced, good songs, GREAT riffs - good stuff! Check it metal foo': MySpace.com - Ted Maul - debut album White Label out 3rd Sep! - LONDON, UK - Death Metal / Hardcore / Drum & Bass - www.myspace.com/tedmaul666

But rather fucking lovely at it: MySpace.com - Rosetta - Philadelphia, PENNSYLVANIA - Experimental / Metal / Ambient - www.myspace.com/rosetta

I stole it offa torrents (not a fan) - its OK, but I span it twice and deleted it.

The End - Elementary (didn't remember buying it, but fell outta my Godflesh hoodie that arrived from Relapse today.....)

Actually, that's quite interesting - is anything "underground" anymore, seeing as most unsigned bands have a website and access is just a click away?

Agreed on those three being the corkers. The rest still sinking in, but loving it!

Its Hog In Disguise!

Gargh!!!

When does it start on UK TV, or should I just start downloading?

So many absurd points, I don't know where to start....

"Pillamyd" is a stormer!

I have a boner. More in line with I than II, seriously great stuff and Phil sounds awesome! (Cues Hog telling me its "Corpo-metal")

Absolutely. But some of the journos DO know their stuff, and theres usually a few nuggets of truth in there. Rocksound is probably the music mag I would trust most (although thats not saying much) and the interweb is run by muso-fascist cunts who can't get a job in the mainstream media, cos they're muso-fascist cunts. Do you read any mainstream press, or get all your stuff word-of-mouth? (Genuine question!)

Hog - Stop lumping Machinehead in with Trivium etc you bastard! Maxi - Kerrang got me into Spy Vs Spy. And Rocksound is quite good for less well known acts. B4MV are rubbish. I didn't read page 2 of this thread.

UTAH SAINTS! UH-UH-UH-UTAH SAINTS! Ummm, no.

A tune I fucking hate. My sister loves it and had it played at their wedding. You haven't made it any worse, I'll give you that!
