Guest JebusNassedar Report post Posted July 21, 2003 The last two CD's I bought were "De-Loused in the Comatorium" by Mars Volta, and I FINALLY nabbed "El Cielo" by dredg. I'm looking into "Hail to the Thief" at the moment, but whether or not I get that depends if Zakk Wylde's availible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Random Hero Report post Posted July 21, 2003 I was spoit for choice last time I went in HMV. They've got a sale of sorts on, but unusually the CDs that are on sale I actually have an interest in. I agonised for an hour about what to get...I was always gonna get 1919 Eternal- BLS ...but then I had to pick 2 maybe 3 out of....Pet Sounds - Beach Boys, The Art Of Balance - Shadows Fall, Fear Of The Dark - Iron Maiden, Alive Or Just Breathing - Killswitch Engage, A Change Of Season - Dream Theater and The Very Best Of The Beach Boys....as stated earlier in the thread, I picked The Art of Balance and Pet Sounds. I just hope the sale is still on next time I get some money... All of these CDs weren't on sale, it should be noted. Which made the choice even harder.

Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted July 21, 2003 Dead Letter Office, Document, Reckoning - REM What took ya so long! All great albums. Dead Letter Office is one of the better album thrown together of random B-Sides and whatnot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murmuring Beast 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2003 I only need Up to complete the collection, and it's their worst. I only got into REM about 6 months ago and since then been on a mission to get all their albums at schoolboy prices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted July 21, 2003 Up is hit and miss. Too technoish for me. But some of the mellower songs are good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest saturnmark4life Report post Posted July 22, 2003 I think 'New Adventures In Hi-Fi' will prove to be their last great release. They still got the goods live, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murmuring Beast 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2003 New Adventures is a ***** album along with Murmur and Automatic. I doubt they'll top it, but you're right - they can still do it live. Mills is God. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest saturnmark4life Report post Posted July 22, 2003 Mills is the star, he doesn't get appreciated. Just things like playing the bassline whilst singing the harmony line are cleverer than you think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murmuring Beast 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2003 Damn right, and he has a great voice too. Plus he's sorted out his image and he looks great now. Just look at some of those ridiculous haircuts and clothes from the 80s and early 90s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted July 24, 2003 Newest Foo Fighters and Coldplay. Also the got the Evanescence (sp) cd. "My Immortal" is amazing. I heard a bunch of people go on about how good it was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Incandenza Report post Posted July 24, 2003 This pay check is most likely going to get me some Nick Cave (any recommendations?) What Edwin said is fine, but have you ever tried Cave's old band, The Birthday Party? Really dark, abrasive stuff. They only have two proper albums--Prayers on Fire and Junkyard--and they're both incredible. As for recent purchases, I got krautrock legends Can's first album, Monster Movie, the other day. A lot more rock-oriented than their groove/trancey stuff they did with Damo Suzuki, but still pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Nanks Report post Posted July 24, 2003 I too just picked up Evanesence's Fallen. I love Tourniquet and Haunted. Fuck Amy Lee's got a great voice. Was somewhat surprised the guy who sings a little bit in Bring Me To Life got absolutely no time in the rest of the album. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted July 24, 2003 Was somewhat surprised the guy who sings a little bit in Bring Me To Life got absolutely no time in the rest of the album. Neh, guy from 12 Stones was just brought in for one song. Better that way, cause I like the version without him better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Nanks Report post Posted July 24, 2003 Ahhhh, I see. That explains a lot. I hadn't realised he wasn't actually part of the band. Fair enough. Thankyou for that clarification. I agree though, Amy doesn't need any help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ArkhamGlobe Report post Posted July 25, 2003 I was planning to go on a buying spree today as I got my paycheck, but I only ended up getting "Live Rust" by Neil Young. I'll probably buy some more stuff during the next couple of days though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest saturnmark4life Report post Posted July 27, 2003 That Lee chick does have a good voice, I have to concede that. But God, what an awful, AWFUL band. Wasted. I just got 'On returning (1977-79) by Wire, just cos. It doesn't sound like much at first, but the influence is staggering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Space_Cowboy Report post Posted July 28, 2003 Just got Snoop Dogg's Doggystyle and Jurassic 5's Power In Numbers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted July 29, 2003 I just got Nick Cave's Murder Ballads, and find it to be quite enjoyable. The place's selection was a bit limited, but I'm pleased with this. I want to get more. I also got an Al Di Meola cd..something about a Gypsy, I don't have it within reach. I listen to some of it, concluded that he's an official guitar badass, and then I kind of got out of the mood for progressive ass kicking. I'll probably enjoy it more on multiple spins, but then again it might have the Dream Theater effect with me. It's jazzier though, so it doesn't strike me quite as cheesy.
