Edwin MacPhisto Posted December 22, 2006 Report 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.
Gary Floyd Posted December 22, 2006 Report 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 Posted December 23, 2006 Report 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.
Angel_Grace_Blue Posted December 23, 2006 Report Posted December 23, 2006 I figure I'll just arbitrarily name some of the albums I liked in 06 since composing a list is too much for me, lollerz. T.I. - King Ice Cube - Laugh Now, Cry Later Les Claypool - Of Whales and Woe Young Dro - Best Thang Smokin' Ray Cash - Cash on Delivery The Decemberists - The Crane Wife Rick Ross - Port of Miami Yung Joc - New Joc City E-40 - My Ghetto Report Card Trick Daddy - Back by Thug Demand So, where exactly can my opinion be ignored, because I'm curious as to just how awful my taste is, lawlz.
MrRant Posted December 25, 2006 Report Posted December 25, 2006 Only one I've listened to was the Mastodon album.
Gary Floyd Posted December 25, 2006 Report 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.
Corey_Lazarus Posted December 25, 2006 Report 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 Posted December 25, 2006 Report 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...
Garth Posted December 25, 2006 Report Posted December 25, 2006 Aluminium - S/T The Raconteurs - Broken Boy Soldiers Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Show Your Bones Hot Chip - Warning Electric Six - Switzerland CSS - Cansei De Ser Sexy Eagles Of Death Metal -Death By Sexy Final Fantasy - He Poos Clouds Beck - The Information The Young Knives - Voices of Animals and Men
Gary Floyd Posted December 25, 2006 Report 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.
KanadianKrusty Posted December 25, 2006 Report 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.
Chuck Woolery Posted December 27, 2006 Report Posted December 27, 2006 I figure I'll just arbitrarily name some of the albums I liked in 06 since composing a list is too much for me, lollerz.

LoRisk Posted December 27, 2006 Report Posted December 27, 2006 I'll just mention Comatose by Skillet and go back into my little corner.
Red Baron Posted December 28, 2006 Report Posted December 28, 2006 Black Label Society Shot to Hell is pretty good. Whole lot better than Mafia.
PLAGIARISM! Posted December 29, 2006 Report Posted December 29, 2006 The new Beck can fuck ri-hi-hi-hight off. (I didn't buy it)
Hank Kingsley Posted December 29, 2006 Report Posted December 29, 2006 Electric Six's Switzerland and "The Last Kiss" soundtrack.
PLAGIARISM! Posted December 29, 2006 Report Posted December 29, 2006 I don't listen to Electric Six but I really really liked the album cover and title for some reason.
Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye Posted January 26, 2007 Report 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?
PLAGIARISM! Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 Hot Chip's The Warning has also grown on me a hell of a lot.
