BAYONETTES-we're doomed 7" (powerpop explosion!) CINEMA EYE-some nerve 12" (damaged synth deprssion pop) GENGHIS TRON-dead mountain mouth 12" (electro grind insanity) SCROTUM GRINDER-the worst sonic abomination ever 12" (male/female vocaled crushing hardcore. hidden track= cover of an old SLAPSHOT song, played on kazoos!) CIV-set your goals cd (when the late 80s NYHC scene went thug or metal, these dudes from gorilla biscuits went pop/pun/hardcore...and it worked somehow) WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?-stand fast armageddon justice fighter cd (SF super group worshipping 80s japanese bandana thrash... was y2k that long ago already?)
Mars Volta - Bedlam In Goliath. Not the faintest idea what to make of it yet. Impenetrable sums it up nicely so far Seasick Steve - Dog House Music. Cracking fun Morning Cup - Joseph Arthur. On yesteday's KEXP song of the day. Lovely tune.
i find that new VOLTA to be by far the most accesible, but you arent the first to totally disagree with me. i think that speaks volumes about the variety of their work.
David Holmes - Presents the Free Association Colleen - et les Boîtes à Musique Fela Kuti - Suffering & Smiling Dälek - Abandoned Language Tinariwen - Amassakoul
The Free Association album is a good one - forgot I had it though! Currently listening to Benga (thank you Mr. Ellis), some Kayo Dot, Modeselektor and Vampire Weekend. Looking forward to getting the Fuck Buttons.
Listening to the self-titled Rumskib album that I just grabbed off of emusic. Really lovely nu-gaze. Ordering info on the site I linked to above as well as on their myspace page.
Crystal Castles -- Crystal Castles Mission of Burma -- Signals, Calls, and Marches Simone Dinnerstein -- Goldberg Variations Ed Solo and Skool of Thought -- Babylon Breaks and still listening to Aesop Rock's None Shall Pass ---it's so freckin' good
I actually listen to my own album a lot too cuz I"m cheezy like that and I still like it 1000 listens later
Bohren Und Der Club of Gore - Geisterfaust 5ive - Hesperus Current 93 - Of Ruine or some Blazing Starre (re-issue) Raw Radar War - = = Coil - Musik to Play in the Dark Vol 2.
polkadot cadaver- purgatory dance party (former members of death-metal-funk-jazz-carnival-music band dog fashion disco. they sound like dfd, just with the weird turned all the way up.) katamari fortissimo damacy (soundtrack for the first game) damn water fountain (... i don't know what to say about them.)
