Kinetic Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 It occurs to me now that Guided by Voices stole everything from Eddie & the Hot Rods. That comment makes no sense to me now. Also, the single version of Nick Lowe's "Heart of the City" is on this punk comp. It's really different from the album version. A lot better, actually.
Kinetic Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 I'm in the process of sorting through the 3-disc Bob Dylan Bootleg Series box set. It's a little disappointing that the whole "amphetamine" portion of his career is represented by a slim six or seven songs, most of which are false starts. Stephen Thomas Erlewine's contention that everything on here is as good as the best song on anyone else's album is laughable. An instrumental version of "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right" that's interrupted by Dylan collapsing into a coughing fit is the equal of anything else in the canon? Come on. There's some good stuff here, though. The severely abbreviated piano-and-harmonica only version of "Like A Rolling Stone" is pretty neat. Etc.
Corey_Lazarus Posted May 13, 2008 Author Report Posted May 13, 2008 Off iTunes... Demolition Hammer - Tortured Existence Demolition Hammer - Time Bomb I have been searching for an album by DH for years. YEARS. I found the Century Media 10-year anniversary 3-CD collection around '02 or so, and ".44 Calibre Brain Surgery" caught my ears immediately. You can check out the thread Taiga started regarding metal for their tune "Infectious Hospital Waste," or prolly d/l ".44 Calibre Brain Surgery" somewhere for free. They are what Cannibal Corpse would be if fronted by Steve Souza, pretty much. Lovely thrash with a solid technical side. I haven't given either a full listen yet, but I will over the course of the next week or so. I can't see myself not loving it entirely, considering the two full songs I've heard have been great.
Dr. Zoidberg Posted May 14, 2008 Report Posted May 14, 2008 I just bought that Vampire Weekend album. Lame, is all I can say.

Corey_Lazarus Posted August 25, 2008 Author Report Posted August 25, 2008 I don't even remember the last few albums I bought. I know Zimmers Hole's When You Were Shouting at the Devil...We Were in League With Satan is one of them, but I can't remember anything else. Oh, right, Cannabis Corpse's Blunted at Birth. Stoner death metal via Municipal Waste bassist LandPhil, with every song title a ganj-based parody of classic Cannibal Corpse tunes. It's actually not half bad, either.
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted September 6, 2008 Report Posted September 6, 2008 That your first listen to that Acid Bath? Also, do you have the most recent Don Cab?
Gary Floyd Posted September 7, 2008 Report Posted September 7, 2008 That your first listen to that Acid Bath? Also, do you have the most recent Don Cab? 1.) I've heard it before, I just never owned it. I can't believe it took me this long. 2.) No I haven't. Is it any good?
Guest Tzar Lysergic Posted September 7, 2008 Report Posted September 7, 2008 There are vocals. I like it better than World Class Listening Problem.
Corey_Lazarus Posted September 8, 2008 Author Report Posted September 8, 2008 Agent, for unleashing Acid Bath upon us all, you are a deity.
Nighthawk Posted September 9, 2008 Report Posted September 9, 2008 Despite the many, many, many bands Agent has introduced me to, I had actually heard Acid Bath before. Ironically, since I was just talking about Skeletonwitch, Acid Bath was another band I got into based on name/cover alone.
Corey_Lazarus Posted September 9, 2008 Author Report Posted September 9, 2008 That's how I got into Zombie Apocalypse, the much better version of Shai Hulud (all of the same tricks, but shorter songs so they don't get as played out).

Garth Posted October 4, 2008 Report Posted October 4, 2008 As I am no longer a student and have much more in the realm of disposable income. I've been and bought quite a lot of new CDs. It's been good times having such an influx of new music. I have bought over the span of about two months bought:
Mecha Mummy Posted October 5, 2008 Report Posted October 5, 2008 Let's just do the past month, between CD purchases and birthday gifts:
Bruiser Chong Posted November 23, 2008 Report Posted November 23, 2008 I was killing some time in Best Buy this evening and came across the minimal Ghostface section. I understand "Bulletproof Wallets" is his worst album, but I couldn't pass it up at $7. Odd pricing, since the rest were at least a 10-spot.
Cheech Tremendous Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 Been on a tear lately. Some of these I already owned, but I wanted them in a second format. TV on the Radio - Dear Science, Fleet Foxes - Sun Giant EP Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes The Raconteurs - Consolers of the Lonely Vampire Weekend - Vampire Weekend AC/DC - Black Ice Prince - Purple Rain Funkadelic - Maggot Brain The Clash - London Calling My Bloody Valentine - Loveless Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation Neil Young - Time Fades Away GZA - Liquid Swords Redman - Whut Thee Album Kanye West - 808s & Heartbreak
