[~~go with the flow~~]

Electric Wizard - Dopethrone

Electric Wizard - Come My Fanatics...

Worship the Wizard!

Best Steely Dan album, fact.

Only songs that aren't A++ are Pearl and Razor Boy.

 

[wouldupleasetiemeup814]

Meat Puppets II is a classic album. Well worth your time.

 

[Baby girl on the way!]

I love Paramore - All We Know Is Falling

All We Know by Paramore

 

[Zacc D]

That's kind of silly really, it's not like Palm Springs really has that much to offer on an aesthetic level.

 

[Amyy]

Mos def!

 

[shafiqdms1]

I have A Livingroom Hush, The Stix and What We Must and I can say if you liked One-Armed Bandit you'll love each one of them. Unfortunately I don't have any links, but if you have trouble finding some I'll be more than happy to upload them for you.

Started listening to this again yesterday I believe, like it even more than when I first got it (I forget when).

It's a bit chaotic in a cheery, upbeat way.

I just listened to Pneuma this morning. So many of those tracks bring me to near-tears, that I sometimes wonder why I listen to it... But then I remeraber it's near-perfect!

Anyways... An album I'm digging as of late:

John Fahey - The Great Santa Barbara Oil Slick

RYM review:

That's a long-ish one, so in summary: He captures everything I love about guitar, his on-stage persona is fabulous, and the flow between each consecutive track, whether technical or simple, is beyond worRAB.

 

[Silver Canary speaks]

A thanks to Pobodys Nerfect for this one. Of the few opinions I've heard on rab about this album, I've yet to hear anyone say anything positive, but I loved it from the first track. It takes me to a familiar place that I've never visited. There were a few moments, while listening to the album, that I wish they would have elaborated on the jazzy breakdowns a little bit more, but altogether, as a jazzy, proggy rock, hip-hop fusion, I love it. Thanks again, PoNe.

4. The Beatles "Let It Be"

This album gets alot of crap and I can understand why but when it's good its really really good. Across the Universe is probably one of the best Beatles sons ever written and aside from some bores on the album like the title track it really does have several great tracks.
Favorite Songs: Across the Universe, I Me Mine, For You Blue, Two of Us, I've Got a Feeling


3. Elliott Smith "Figure 8"

Elliott Smith's final album wasn't the big pop album he wanted but it still came close and showed him putting DreamWorks money to good use. It also shows him still bringing out the acoustic guitar and doing very well with it. I just wish there more songs like Junk Bond Trader on it.
Favorite Songs: Junk Bond Trader, Happiness/The Gondola Man, Everything Means Nothing To Me, LA, East Way Out, Wouldn't Mama Be Proud?


2. Oasis "Definitely Maybe"

Okay first things first, I really can't get over how much I love Supersonic. From the start it kicks ass, there's that heavy guitar party and then Liam does this Lennon/Lydon like sneer and goes I need to be myseeeeeeeeelfffffffffffff and I just love it and have been listening to that song so much. But anyway, the album itself is good too I've just been raping supersonic in particular.
Favorite Songs: Supersonic, Live Forever, Slide Away, Cigarettes and Alcohol, Colurabia


1. The Beatles "Rubber Soul"

The album where the Beatles really started to shine but still shows traces of their old days (Drive My Car) except 200 times better than their old days. I've mostly been listening to Nowhere Man, the vocals are beautiful on it.
Favorite Songs: In My Life, Nowhere Man, I'm Looking Through You, Wait, Norwegian Wood, Run For Your Life

Coil - Love's Secret Domain

I don't know why I never listened to this before. It's pretty awesome. It's been on my radar for a bit over 15 years but I never took the plunge.

 

[aim= xxlilxblkxx]

I'm really not sure if it's their best. It's quite possible that it's not. But that's the first album by them I heard and it remained most listened to me. That's all.

 

[alice H]

i did forget to put two tracks (Smile Away and Another Day), but than I felt I'd be naming more than half the album

 

[Jessee A]

^^^^

Transmissions From The Satellite Heart and more commercial but oh so good: Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots.

 

[Nichole ♥]

lol shall check it out then... it's funny i got started with Miles on Bitches Brew so it gave me a taste for jazz fusion; consequently found it difficult to get into 'best jazz LP of all time'; Kind Of Blue... then came Sun. We need to get some lists going in the jazz forum.

anywayz. Here's some stuff worth checking out. Will stake my non-existent reputation on it

1986 compilation of the Subway Organization label. Features many C86/indie-pop 'legenRAB'. Jangly guitars, rainy days, doc martens. brill

ALL of the Half Man Half Biscuit Peel sessions '85-'04. Features such gems as 'Four Skinny Indie KiRAB Drinking Weak Lager'. PM for schminkage

 

[LarrySmile]

One of the best new banRAB out there is MMJ ;-)

[Cloud Man]

I'm loving the new Blockhead..

 

[ThangQanime]

I gave Cynic's latest release Traced In Air another spin, the guitar work is definately improved as well as the vocals
