fertuiee Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) Tenhi - Maaaet Probably not for most folks, but its an absolutely cracking album this. Very dark, folk ...i guess.

Flights Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Born into Trouble as the Sparks Fly Upward - The Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band Me and the missus have been raking through the C.D box recently and sticking albums on that we've not listened to in a while. This got stuck on last night. Still can't really understand why I haven't listened to it in a while. Beautiful, haunting music. You can even listen to it for free on Constellations website. http://cstrecords.com/cst018/10/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
get lost Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Chvrches, The Bones of What You Believe!, 8 out of 10, Stating to really grow on me, this little ditty!, however, there is a dark underbelly to this synth pop gem, lovely production too..

Teabags Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 ESTEL - The Bones of Somethinghttps://itunes.apple.com/us/album/the-bones-of-something/id380025377Awesome (mostly) instrumental horror themed awesomeness. I don't know how to describe them better than that so just listen to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ca_gere Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Shad - Flying Colours Murr off 'ere suggested it in the Hip Hop thread and it's a beaut. I must've listened to the whole album about 4 times now. It's probably a very good 'introductory' modern hip hop album. I'm not sure what I mean by that to be honest but if anyone doesn't know where to start with modern hip hop and thinks it's all lil wayne, it'd be a good album to listen to. The production gets a little boring at times (a lot of synthy strings) but his lyrics are great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds: Murder Ballads - The first N.C album I ever listened to. Still one of my favourites. Really gorgeous lush instrumentation and typically dark Cave lyrics. 8/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 This thread should not be dead. It's too good. Rediscovering some old favourites in a quiet shift at work today: Seven Year Bitch - Viva Zapata. I only have one other album of theirs and I like the other one better (Sick 'Em). This one is a bit lacking in energy, and isn't as balls out rocky, although the songs are a lot more personal. It improves as it goes on. A solid album.***Standout tracks - Rock A Bye, It's Too Late, Get Lit The Gits - Frenching The Bully. I forgot how fucking ace this album is. Fast and angry throughout. Up the punx. ****Standout tracks - Slaughter Of Bruce, Wingo Lamo, Second Skin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Good bump. Not enough music chat around here. I saw on another forum a "Listen to an album you have never heard before everyday" thread. It sounds like a neat idea, and I want to do it. Perhaps I'll use this thread to document it. Or perhaps it should be its own thread, if more folks want to join in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 Right then, here goes. Listen to one new record a day #1 Megachurch 2: Judgement Day The 2nd album from instrumental fuzz-rock trio. Two fuzzed out bass guitars and a bunch of audio samples of evangelist sermons and political speeches over the top. 1st album is fun. This is funner. 3 outta 5.

colb Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 Shellac - Dude Incredible. It's not a drastic change in style, it's well recorded (so fucking well recorded) and it sounds a lot like Shellac = if you like Shellac you'll really like it*. *Someone said last night that it sounded like Led Zeppelin, if you cut out the guitar solos and lyrics about castles and bustles in hedgerows this isn't far wrong. 4/5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsinho Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 Plaids by Plaids Punx/Hardcore. Fast. Good. Sounds a bit like End Of A Year but with more strings to their bow. Rating: e/? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 One new record a day #2 Prosperina - Faith in Sleep I'll do another one for today, since I gave Megachurch a spin last night. I'd heard about this lot getting rave reviews from all over, but I've put off listening to them until today. A lot going on. Parts of it sound a bit like Jesu, then throw in a bit of Torche and even a bit of Soundgarden, and you're half way there. Big strong vocal, and a colossally smooth guitar. 3.5 outta 5.

Lemonade Posted September 17, 2014 Report Share Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon. I doubt there will ever be another album I listen to as often as I've listened to Dark Side Of The Moon. I must know every note of it by now and it's still an incredible journey every time.***** Wonder Villains - ROCKY. A more catchy and adorable power pop album I haven't heard in many a year. So loveable. Unashamedly simple, catchy fun. Terrific band. And it has a song about Gianfranco Zola. Soda Jerk, you should make this your new album of the day tomorrow.Standout tracks - TV, 33, Zola.**** Ghostface Killah - 12 Reasons To Die. Pretty good album. Some really lush production, nice beats and Ghostface is always good value. Gets better on side 2.Standout tracks - I Declare War, The Rise Of The Ghostface Killah, Murder Spree.**** Edited September 17, 2014 by Lucky Rathen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 One new record a day #3New Brutalism - Actual RecordShellac worship, right down to playing aluminium guitars through harmonic percolators. They even recorded with Albini and Weston. Brash, twangy and noisy. Recommended if you like bands that sound exactly like other bands. I do. 4 outta 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stroopy121 Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 I'm gonna join Joe because I've been in a slump of listening to the same 5 records. New Record a Day #1 I had previously avoided these guys because I hate gimmicky shit like their colour co-ordination shit.. but the record is solid pop-punk with great hooks and harmonies. GBOL. 4/5. xx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Good shout. I've heard a few Masked Intruder songs and they sound pretty great. Still haven't slogged through a whole album though. I'll have to add it to the pile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) These are yesterdays albums but FUCK YOUR RULES MAN.Haunted Hearts - Initiation. Kind of a scuzzy pop album. A bit like the Raveonettes but less awful. I really like the songs, nice pop songs with fuzzy guitars and whatnot, I always enjoy the album when its on but the songs are immediately forgettable. I listen to this album a lot and I don't know if I could hum a riff of it about half an hour after listening. I'm making this album sound shit but it isn't. Summary - listen to this album.Standout tracks - Initiate Me, Something That Feels Bad Is Something That Feels Good, Johnny Jupiter***Ramona Lisa - Arcadia. Electronic kind of dreamy synth stuff with female vocalist. It's OK. It reminds me of the background music in Minecraft, but with singing. Interesting but not amazing.***Elliott Smith - Figure 8. It has more of a full band sound than most of his other stuff, but far and away the best songs on the album are the acoustic ones. They suit his voice perfectly. Really well written songs. Not his best album but even not at his best he's better than most other people. I go through stage of not listening to Elliott Smith for ages, then listening to nothing but Elliott Smith. I think I might be on the cusp of an Elliott Smithathon.Standout tracks - Say Yes, L.A, Easy Way Out,**** Edited September 19, 2014 by Lucky Rathen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neepheid Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Ash - 1977. Tie fighters! Enthusiastic guitar playing! Hidden tracks! Jackie Chan! Vomit! I'm 21 again, woop woop! Just the pick me up I needed after staying up most of this morning. Just fucking great pop music that makes me want to sing along and it made household chores just disappear today. Minus a star because it isn't Dark Side of the Moon or OK Computer. **** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stroopy121 Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 New Record a Day #2 Dead to Me - Moscow Penny Ante Decided to go with a record by a band I'd never really heard. It was pretty great at the front and back ends but sagged a bit in the middle. Just the right amount of rough-around-the-edges but still well produced enough to never sound muddy or second-rate. Some solid songs but it gets a little repetitive and uninspired in places. 3/5 xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
