MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
I had the new Vampire Weekend, The XX, the last Ulrich Schnauss and the new Four Tet arrive today.
Nice to have a splurge on music now and then. Got another three or four still on the way from Amazon.
Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet.
Vampire Weekend, too. Not quite grabbing me as much as the first one. Band of Horses just before that which is great.
Whats the new Four Tet like? I have ROunds and like it (took some listening to get there)
The Lawrence Arms - Buttsweat and Tears.
It's a good 'un!
Florence and the machine for my missus - crap. Also, Minsitry of Sound 80's anthems, also for the missus - but not crap.
Delphic - Acolyte
The title track makes me want to get naked
Nocando - "Jimmy the Lock". Fab.
edIT - "Certified Air Raid Material" (from 2007 but just discovered it on iTunes)
Four Tet's Essential Mix was good last week- worth catching on the iPlayer.
Whats the new Four Tet like?
Will report back later.
Star Wars theme picture album, thrown in the bin by my mother 15 years later.
Miles Davis "Bitches Brew". Can not get to grips with it, reckon it will take some perseverance.
It happens, can't always expect to be blown away by music on initial acquaintance. 😐
[i]The Southern Yeti - Member
Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet.

Is that Everything All The Time or a newer one?
Mumford & sons - Excellent
I've got "The Audacity of Hype" by Jello Biafra and the Guantanamo School of Medicine on order just waiting for it to turn up!
The Cure greatest hits - the acoustic version of love cats is really rather spiffing!

Everything All The Time indeed. Might be yonks old for all I know...?
Thanks for Fourtet 'review'. On my long-and-growing list for first pay packet.
On my long-and-growing list for first pay packet.
GLWT 😀 For me, the list has forever grown faster than the frequency or volume of the pay packets, and so I have had many times to discard any idea of lists and get what I can at the time.
I'm still old school and buy on CD, but many of them are priced so competitively that I'm more than happy to own the physical item AND load it into iTunes.
I bought a few at the same time.
Dan le Sac 'v' Scroobius Pip - Angels
Akira the Don - When We Were Young & The Omega Sanction
Queen - The Ultimate Collection
Glasvegas - Glasvegas
Vampire Weekend - Contra.
Beach House - Teen Dream.
Excellent.
+1 for the Cure's Greatest Hits! Bought it ages ago, but love the acoustic side - especially Lullaby. Just got Nick Drake's albums in the post from Amazon, never heard his stuff before the culture show the other night and kinda loving it....
Friendly Fires - Friendly Fires. A strange mix of synthpop and shoegaze, with bits of Talking Heads-yness thrown in for good measure. Download from itunes, I didn't pay for any plastic circles.
[i]Deepish Mood[/i]
?? A Depeche Mode tribute band??
Them Crooked Vultures, which makes me uber cool. 😉
Ha Ha DezB ^^^
I'm very slowly replacing my old vinyl, I'm currently on 'B' 😳 so the last one was The Birthday Party (he of Nick Cave fame). The Best of.......
PS I do listen mostly to new stuff, but recently had an urge to replace more stuff from my yoof.
Them Crooked Vultures, which makes me uber cool
Dissapointing, underwhelming dad rock is not cool
Tonic for the Troops - Boomtown Rats
Friendly Fires - Friendly Fires. A strange mix of synthpop and shoegaze, with bits of Talking Heads-yness thrown in for good measure.
Great album, interesting description too. I think of them as sort-of MDMA-indie pop, but I see where you're coming from.
Check out MGMT too if you haven't already.
Check out MGMT too if you haven't already.
Also check out The Temper Trap.
Delphic very good also... who'd have thought suede would feel so good next to the skin.
"Empire & Love" by the "Imagined Village"
Not played enough yet to comment. Though not too sure about "cumon feel the noize".
Eat static - implant
bit of a blast from the bast there yossarian, think I'll dig that out!
Depeche Mode - Sounds of the Universe
Yo La Tengo's latest, "Popular songs". Havent had enough time to listen to it yet!
florence and the machine
Bought: Frightened Rabbit - Sing the Greys
Obtained (not illegally): Frightned Rabbit - The Winter of mixed drinks
The fact they are both the same band is pretty co-incidental. Also recently got Mumford and Sons & Lostprophets.
Glad Bon Iver is getting some coverage on here - such a good album 🙂
Biffy Clyro's newest album, bought today, not listened yet.
jimster - MemberThem Crooked Vultures - still trying to get to grips with it.
Treat it as a good pub band in jamming mode, suddenly it makes sense.
BoardinBob - MemberThem Crooked Vultures, which makes me uber cool
Dissapointing, underwhelming dad rock is not cool
I'm so unhip it's a wonder me bum doesn't fall off..
Dave Rawlings Machine - A friend of a friend
Cardiacs - "Mares Nest".
didn't think I'd get a copy after poor old Tim took ill and the band and ABC hung up their socks. But all their stuff is on itunes now.
Timbaland - Shock Value II...such an ace album
Jon Hopkins - Insides. Very good too.
I'm having that Four Tet album as well. Would recommend the Blood Bank ep by Bon Iver if you like the album. Flawless live too 🙂
Curtis by Curtis Mayfield
His first solo album - and it has an 8 minute version of Move On Up on there - worth buying for that alone.
These New Puritans - Hidden
Rammstein - Mutter, Sehnsucht and Reise, Reise. Metaltastic 🙂
if anyone likes Editors, Interpol & the like, may I be so rude as to recommend [url= http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0035YSCV2/ref=dm_sp_alb?ie=UTF8&qid=1264620485&sr=8-41 ]this[/url]
we'd very much appreciate it if you were to have a listen 🙂
BTW the records listed at the bottom, Stars In Your Eyes and Quit, are nothing to do with this particular band called The Wick Effect
The Low Anthem - Oh my God, Charlie Darwin. Excellent.
Ministry of sound- electronic 80's, Best.Album.Ever!
Spurred on by the protest and angst element of Rage Against the Machine getting to Xmas no. 1, I sought out for my new iPod touch:
The Levellers - Levelling the Land
&
NWA - Straight Outta Compton
Now got some ace angst ridden tunes from different music genres! Reminds me of my drink fueled primal screaming of my youth! Which reminds me, need to rip my Primal Scream albums...
Black to comm ; Factual hair geometry
Demdike stare ; Osmosis
Harmonic 313 ; When machines exceed human intelligence
Kelpe ; Cambio wechsel
Martyn ; FabricLive 50
Richard Skelton ; Landings
Zelienople ; Give it up
pre-ordered Hot Chip ; One life stand on 200gm double vinyl. 😀
da funk
I am gonna buy Lindstrom's and Gil Scot Heron's new album.
kiss - ultimate collection or something
Last album I bought was Napalm Death - Time Waits For No Slave \m/
Dark side of the moon by Flaming Lips
Shouldn't work but it does!
Harmonic 313 ; When machines exceed human intelligence
Excellent album, as is the first one (and the second Troubleman album, which is a bit more funky)
DezB - Member
Deepish Mood?? A Depeche Mode tribute band??
Sorry, Alison Moyet called them that and it kind of stuck 😉
Saw them Birmingham NEC before Christmas, standing down the front, off to see them again at the O2 in a couple of weeks - this time we're sat up in the Gods (Block Q or something).
One of the few bands I know that can really work a stadium.
Support is Nitzer Ebb too.
