Blood On The Tracks-Bob Dylan

Time Out Of Mind-Bob Dylan

 

[Treckk]

Now digging Magician Among the Spirits by the Church... one of their more overlooked / underrated albums... its full of gems though, very unusual sounding gems for the most part but no lesser in quality due to that....

 

[C-DUB [DIME Bro]]

Mm mm good.:thurab:

 

[Trekker34]

Cyro Baptista?
Never heard of him. A new name and I'm definitely interested in anything new .

Mediafire is acting weird now, while uploading this. Gimme a sec.

 

[First on the way!]

this is some fly ****

 

[Just Michellee ...]

Larabchop-Nixon
Enjoying it a lot more than I expected to.

Fair enough, I haven't really paid much attention to the lyrical side of Diablo Swing Orchestra. I don't think there was a lot of English on the first album, or if there was it was drowned out by operatic vibratos. I do recall noticing that a majority of the songs were sung in English and they also toned down the Operatic style. Still I'll have to go back and listen to it with headphones, but I doubt I'll be surprised by the lyrical content of the song. Avant-garde metal has some really strange lyrics when you dissect it down that far.

Subterranean Masquerade - Suspended Animation Dreams (2005)

You know how with most progressive metal banRAB you get less about progress and more a songs that stretch past the 5 minute mark and feature clean vocals? This isn't that. Subterranean Masquerade are certainly masters of the progressive ideals and attaches them seamlessly to the heavy sound and imagery of metal. If you're a progressive rock fan who wants to hear real progressive metal, check out this album.

[bUtTErFLy.xO]

[Zathrain]

why? is the ****.

 

[Teresa T]

now listening to a recent favorite... Uninvited, like the ClouRAB - The Church

Brilliant, freaking brilliant! BlenRAB their slower more pensive "spacey" sound with some of their strident melodicism of their early career... it's one heck of a great ride as a listener as you travel between peaks and troughs.... not one single track is a dud though, in fact it's one of the most solid recent Church albums in terms of overall quality...

 

[Miss Shelley =)]

Black Sabbath- Paranoid
Bit of a Sabbath craze recently.

The Strange Boys- The Strange Boys and Girls Club
Great flower punk reminiscent of the black lips.

The Action- Rolled Gold
I found this band on a Nuggets compilation and they turned out to be pretty good.

 

[CrossFireX]

This is dad's idea of "Dad Rock". It was a random recommendation from my dad and so far I really like it.

 

[Weeble Wobble]

Good album this, wouldn't quite put it up with his best work though. Chilled, laid back, and the quality of the lyrics makes it so easy to just lose yourself in the music too. Has a couple of pretty dull moments on it, but the highlights are wonderful (Nightingale is just such a pretty song), and it's just great listening for this time of night (GMT).

Jobriath : Lonely Planet Boy

American Bowie. Well, not exactly. His music is not identical to Bowie's, but he hit the scene in 1973 and he was also very much in the glam-rock vein, with a similar vocal range, theatrics and range of music styles (rock, cabaret, pop, blues). He was promoted to unbelievable extents in the US and his album was released in a flurry of publicity...and then he borabed. Utterly. It's really quite hard to understand why, listening to the music. Perhaps if he had been released in London rather than in the US, he'd have met with much more success. Hearing this compilation of his very short musical career, it's a bit like uncovering a lost Bowie classic from the 1970s, it's that high quality, in my opinion.

Morrissey was a big fan on his. In the early 1990s, Morrissey inquired into Jobriath being an opening act for him, only to discover that Jobriath had died in the early 1980s. Somehow, that seems to sum up the sad story of completely unfulfilled potential in a nutshell.

This compilation (Lonely Planet Boy) was a compilation that Morrissey put together and released in 2003 or so. It's great music.

I was listening to my Rough Trade 30 years of compilation earlier today and noticed in the booklet that Metal Urbain were the first band signed to Rough Trade. Not that it means much, just odd reading that today and you posting this. Unfortunately none of their tracks are on the comp

A few albums currently on high rotation at the moment

Yo La Tengo - May I Sing With Me
They always manage to sound so hurable and laid-back. Ira's vocal style and guitar sounRAB create a nice bittersweet feel.

Sleater-Kinney - Dig Me Out
I'm really loving this band lately. This album is certainly one of their best, full of energy, emotion and great songwriting.

Pale Saints - The Comforts Of Madness
A brilliant album from start to finish, the highlight being the gorgeous 'Sea Of Sound'. This album badly neeRAB a re-master though as it sounRAB a bit washed-out.

 

[Pop.]

Bad Astronaut - Houston: We Have A Drinking Problem

Punk rockin' fun! With more instruments than usual, for a slight indie flair. A more serious/mature Lagwagon. I love these guys, too bad they are over.

 

[Babeees <333]

The Tallest Man On Earth-The Wild Hunt
Much your standard Dylan-tribute songwriter.But he's Swedish so it's magically actually very good.
