Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted December 22, 2006 Forgot Return to the Sea! And I heard a bit of the new Tool, suffice to say it sounded like a band doing an impression of Tool. Not good. Shit, me too. File it under the "albums I really like," I think. That's on the cusp between like and love; I just haven't listened to it in a few months. Just downloaded the new Junior Boys too. This might get in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gary Floyd 0 Report post Posted December 22, 2006 Well, after giving Agalloch and Xela's bew ones a listen, here's my thoughts: Agalloch is a rarity: A Black Metal band who I like, or at least doesn't strike me as trying too hard to be controversial in subject matter.. Xela's new one is boring though. Also, Black Sun Productions new album Operett Amorale is suprisingly good. Thom Yorke's The Eraser gets boring after a while though.

Red Baron 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2006 Horrible or not Corey, its still influence. How many garage rock bands pay homage to the Beatles, and how many of them try to be like John Lennon? It's all on influence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gary Floyd 0 Report post Posted December 25, 2006 Well, I gave the new LCD soundsystem a listen after getting it off ITunes. I like it more than their first album, but it's not going to beat out Motor's Klunk in my eyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted December 25, 2006 Horrible or not Corey, its still influence. How many garage rock bands pay homage to the Beatles, and how many of them try to be like John Lennon? It's all on influence. But most people say Tool are influential as if it were a positive way. There has yet to be a single band with a heavy Tool influence that is anything but boring rubbish. gary, is the new Zombi better than, as good as, or worse than Cosmos?

MFer 0 Report post Posted December 25, 2006 Alright I don't know 90% of these people. I know most of the rap artists and a few of the others. What type of music do some of these other artists do? Are these "underground" albums? My musical tastes don't appear to be sophisticated enough at this point... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gary Floyd 0 Report post Posted December 25, 2006 gary, is the new Zombi better than, as good as, or worse than Cosmos? I actually like it more than Cosmos. One review I read said it sounds like Rush in their prime if they did an album without guitars or vocals. So yeah, it's great stuff, IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KanadianKrusty 0 Report post Posted December 25, 2006 More evidence that I'm a typical person over 30: I have no idea what anyone is talking about. I really need to find a pop culture board populated by people my own age or something. You probably don't need to worry that much, I'm 19 and I know NONE of that stuff.

Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye 0 Report post Posted January 26, 2007 Agalloch is a rarity: A Black Metal band who I like, or at least doesn't strike me as trying too hard to be controversial in subject matter.. Not a Black Metal band, by any stretch of the imagination. Your friend who recommended them also recommended the wrong album from them. The Mantle or Pale Folklore are more interesting. I'm still the only one here who thought that the new Mastodon was really bad? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
