Sonic Youth - Goo

Just a brilliant album, been trying to get into this album for a while. Tinkering with them but this is the first album I've really got into. I love the distorted guitar tones. Top notch album.
 
Great album. :beer: Vadim's more recent albums haven't done much for me, but I do enjoy The Art of Listening.

PJ Harvey - Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea

Ripped my girlfriend's CD a ways back, finally got around to listening to it this week. I liked it the first time around yesterday, and just spun it for the second time now.

Breathe Owl Breathe - Ghost Glacier EP

32 minutes of very pleasant indie-pop/folk with boy/girl vocals and lots of little neat flourishes.

This is live, the studio version is better, but it'll give you an idea:

Both fantastic albums. Chthonic is probably my favorite black metal band...something about the erhu just works perfectly with the music. Indigenous Lacerations is still their best, but this album is good. Behemoth is just always good.

Ah, so glad I found out about this! It's psychedelic avant-garde bliss. Thanks again, Lucifer Sam!

More '60s avant-garde. Not really psychedelic, but a precursor to electronic music. I'm really digging this!

Now for some '80s avant-garde! Downloaded this last night and have listened to it twice already. I'm completely falling in love with it. A great partner of the Residents, this band is!

Awesome sludge/doom metal...wish they were still around.
Favorite track: Scream of The Butterfly
Other favorites: Tranquilized, Cheap Vodka, Jezebel, Dope Fiend, Toubabo Koomi.
 
I am definitely going to pick up this album after reading what you thought, and watching that video :thurab:
I get more and more into Tom every time I hear a new song. I love the jazzy/club feel to that video too.
 
Eh, each album has like three keepers and the rest of the albums can be thrown away.

But then again, I'm like that with a majority of the albums I listen to; I'll give it a handful of listens, pick out my favorites, and stick to those...

^ It's been so long since I last listened to this I forgot I even had it 'til today. I think it's the only South African music I have as well. As an album it's not all so great, but makes a nice change from the stuff I usually have on though.

^ Hated it on the first listen, can't get enough of it now.

^ And some gorgeous Americana here.
 
^ I recently bought this album as well. I really love it. Nick sounRAB really angry on it. Love that! I understand they are planning on releasing a second album.
 
Still on my U2 kick type thing, and rediscovering No Line On The Horizon, and finding it much MUCH better than my initial assessments of it some nine months or so ago....
 
You could be right, i haven't listened to them for a long time.

I still love the first Strokes album. The second was a little bit of a let down for me overall but theres certainly some decent tunes on it.
 
it just doesn't measure up when you look at it comparatively. The Genesis is filler, NY State of Mind and The World Is Yours are overrated, and i don't particularly care for Halftime.
 
Of course Lateralus is much better as an album, but Aenima has some fantastic Tool songs on it which are some of their most known. Stinkfist, Eulogy, H., Forty Six & 2, Pu****, Aenima, and Third Eye are all tracks I love and ensure that there isn't too much "fluff."
