Oh, and a rather splendid compilation CD that a friend sent meCoincidentally, I've been listening to a couple of friend-produced compilations too. All good stuff. :)

Shut up! :mad: It is so! :cool:
And I think it's totally cool that Tegan (of Tegan and Sarah) does backup vocals on the track "Borne on the FM Waves of the Heart".

Boards of Canada - Geogaddi (on vinyl :D).
Very scarce and difficult to get hold of on vinyl. I've had it on CD for quite a while, but it just sounds almost completely different on Vinyl.
I've also downloaded Radiohead Live at Glastonbury 2003, which is a pretty outstanding performance. Battles - Mirrored has also made it's way into my playlist, along with Tom McRae - All Maps Welcome.

Jul 23, 2007, 06:22 PM
Betty Curse, Paramore, Chimaira, and Every Time I Die are the only things on my playlist. I can't hear out of my right ear that well because of the Sounds of the Underground concert a few days ago, so I'm not really in the mood to listen to music with one ear.

My folks go away soon so I'm borrowing their record player (decks? whatever they're called. I've no idea :D ) and going through a few classics. They've literally got a small army of records. Human League, Bowie, ELO will be my friends soon.

I've been slowly building up the best bits of my dad's record collection (40 years of awesome albums and rare soul/funk singles, along with the odd bit of 80s electronic dance).

This week it's mostly podcasts with a bit of the new Tegan & Sara, the new New Pornographers, and a smattering of older electronica (Amon Tobin, Air, the Books) thrown in for flavor.
All in all, it looks to be a good week. :)

Okkervil River - The Stage Names (awesome album, not as dark as Black Sheep Boy, but good new direction)
Laura Veirs - Saltbreakers (love it, not quite Year of Meteors, but damn close)
Ben Harper - Lifeline (killer album, love it)
Sum 41 - Underclass Hero (overrated, total Blink/Green Day rip-off but worse, end with a wannabe Billy Joe acoustic solo track, throw in a few bland Enema of the State songs, and re-write Fat Lip as the opening track and you have the entire CD)
Plus tons of others, the new Feist, the new Tegan & Sara, Decemberists, Tilly and the Wall, some old school Andrew Bird's Bowl of Fire, Amelie OST (always a fave), Kyo, then throw in a pinch of radio-friendly stuff (new Bravery stuff, Paramore, etc.)

All About Eve and Natalie Merchant are both still lighting my candle. I'm pretty sure I'm trapped in the late 80's but it's nice here.

Interpol Our Love To Admire - Kind of the opposite of growing on me, but still better than Antics IMO.
Scott Walker Scott 1 - 4 - Way ahead of the curve back in the late 60s and still is today.
Animal Collective Strawberry Jam - Simply amazing. Best record of 2007 so far. See also the current Panda Bear album.
Studio Yearbook 1 - Like a dancier version of The Durutti Column. Very interesting find!
The Sea & Cake Everybody - They haven't made a mind-blowing record in ages, but they are consistently good.
Seefeel Quique - Because the DJ at a bar I was at last weekend played "Plainsong", which really took me back... (and I never realized that song sounded so good at such high dBs!)

Other than the mystical sound of one hand clapping:
I listen to near-daily complaints from an acquaintance wanting to know when I'll finish his website. :rolleyes: Otherwise, I've been tuning into "Crosley," a defunct indie band in which a friend was the drummer and whatever tune strikes my iPod's fancy on the "shuffle" setting.

Jul 27, 2007, 02:26 AM
Seemless by Seemless (yeah!)
Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode
Of Wars in Osyrhia by Fairyland
Alive or Just Breathing by KillSwitch Engage
Dear Catastrophe Waitress by Belle and Sebastian
The Piper at the Gates of Dawn by Pink Floyd
IM the Superviser by Infected Mushroom
The Definitive Act by Tsunami Bomb
and the new Mya single "Ridin'" which is disappointing.
Snatch Soundtrack (Klint, Overseer, Oasis, Massive Attack, the Stranglers)
I am going to have to check that out
Sum 41 - Underclass Hero (overrated, total Blink/Green Day rip-off but worse, end with a wannabe Billy Joe acoustic solo track, throw in a few bland Enema of the State songs, and re-write Fat Lip as the opening track and you have the entire CD)
And that is the second review I've heard say that (yours is shorter which makes it better).

If you haven't heard of them, check them out. It's only two guys, but the bassist/guitarist loops over himself. Good instrumental music.
This is from their first album but still good nevertheless:
