Exceelent Music You've Heard Lately

[BuckyBuckner]

That's one I'll drive to Phoenix for, thanks for posting.

No problem. I'm pretty excited for this. I'm also very excited that there might be a vinyl release of the album. I think I might be the only one here that actually listens to vinyl but that is something that is way over due.

And now for something completely different. For those that like their rock to be heavy, I give you Torche.

I have a couple hundred LPs I've picked up (mostly second-hand) and still listen to.

Good to hear. Vinyl sounds so much better.

I agree for most things...I just can't convince my wife (err, justify) that building my collection is worth taking up all that space.

They do take up a lot of space. They are like my little babies, I could never get rid of them. Though when I move, whenever that is, it will really suck. I probably have about 1,500.

Not the greatest quality ... the bass isn't very rich. Is 2000 old school?

Now that I have satellite radio again I'm exposed to some catchy tunes that will either be big hits soon or tragically wallow in obscurity. Here's one I've been digging:

wow - this is catchy

I will let you know after I listen to it a few thousand times - I dig this a lot - not as catchy as "You get what you want" but ...

I've probably heard it a couple dozen times and I still get excited when it comes on the radio. It's not exactly an epic masterpiece, but I see it having more lasting power than something like "Pumped Up Kicks".

Nice ...

Edit: but I think it's on a random loop ... that's the third time I've heard Taken For a Fool by The Strokes ... not that I'm complaining.

Just heard this from a band I'd heard of, but knew nothing about ... apparently been around for 25 years :shruggs:

I'm guess fans of more classic rock stuff like Rush will really dig this.

07:38:31 Belle And Sebastian - Theres Too Much Love (live At Queens University Belfast21 Dec2001)

My old Uni ... good times.



Catchy little tune from a couple of years back ... didn't know the band name until now.

I've heard "Pumped Up Kicks" numerous times this past week and i listen to the radio very little. So i doubt this song will have the staying power of the cool tune that is "Pumped Up Kicks".

I thought that statement might get misconstrued - what I meant was staying power in my own taste. I liked "Pumped Up Kicks" at first, but after a dozen or so listens it got to be annoying due to its repetitive nature. I'm not sure "Come Home" will ever make it to terrestrial radio, but to me it will remain one of my favorite new songs for a decent amount of time.

Luckily LA's radio stations finally stopped overplaying that song. Satellite radio played the hell out of it before it made it to any terrestrial radio stations and then once they got a hold of it they played the hell out of it too. Would you believe that song debuted a full 2 years ago?

Here's one for Mith ...
