Hello all my$$$$$
 
 Delgados hate is fantastic.....
 
 I bought Finley Quaye on a whim for a$1 at CD game exchange last week. Its OK. The first song sounds like white reggae though, think UB40. It deinitely gets better in the middle. The singles, I think there were four are all really rather good. Good summerey background music in my opinion.

What's this like?  I'm wondering about seeing him when he comes to town (he's got some of Varnaline backing him up, and a friend of mine in Portland played bass with Varnaline).
 
 Thanks...

Well I am not sure how fmailiar you are with his other work, but it is mellower than a lot of Son Volts work, it is similar to his other solo work, better than Sebastapol (sp?) but I think the ep he released is better than this, but I have not had the new one for very long.  I am hoping he does not try and reproduce the short instrumentals in the live show.  There are a couple of videos of songs from a recent show in New York at www.jayfarrar.net (http://www.jayfarrar.net)
 
 And when I saw him in 2001 he played lots of Son Volt and some Uncle Tupelo material, it was a good show.

That's a  yowza! (http://www.kraftwerk.com/)   But I believe it's called Tour De France Soundtracks (http://www.emirecords.co.uk/mailers/kraftwerk/tour_03/tour_03.html)...something about cashing in bigtime on their '83 single coinciding with the race just now starting.  It's probably gonna suck, but I gotta have it anyway...

Actually Rilo Kiley's Jenny Lewis does not sing all the female parts, Nothing Better is sung by Jen Wood.

Like I said Paige, it is not the Rilo Kiley chick (Jenny Lewis) and Postal Service won't be back soon as Deathcab's new album comes out in October.

Allegedly, they have been working on an album for the past few (10) years.  But one of the guys has a major drug problem.

I am often amazed by the CDs I see at used stores.  Inevitably I already have them because folks give classics away.  Though, if it's not your cup of tea, it's not your cup of tea.

I bought it for a dollar, and now I can't get rid of it. Figure I'll make a profit on it if I can find a buyer. One good song; the rest was just unlistenable and tuneless.

Oh Rhett, we may both love Pernice Bros, but I think we have some great divergences as well.  Certainly every song is not great, but there are at least 4 or 5 that I think are fabulous:  "Bottle of Fur," "Sister Havana," "Positive Bleeding," "Erika Cane" and I'm sure one or two others I can't think of.  But, it's true, the songs I don't like I don't like much at all.

Perhaps I should give it more than the once over. Only one song was catchy the first time through. I'm just getting very picky, since I already have so much GREAT music. If something is merely GOOD, it seems more and more pointless to bother with. Perhaps I am becoming Mankie.

Nope, I'm with you on that.  I find I'm much less likely to *try* to like an album or band.  Good example, Grandaddy.  They have that one song out now as a single that I think is awful.  But hey, I don't *need* to like Grandaddy, so it's okay.
 
 I also find I give up on books more easily as well, with my free time harder to come by these days.

Twice is $15 at DCCD. Or there is Amazon. Personally I would wait and buy it at the show ($10 and the band probably make more of the cash).
 
 Once is trickier, only Amazon and ebay. It wasnt for sale at the show.
 
 I could supply copies of both for you to listen to before their show with nada surf.
 
 Teenage fanclub and jad fair.... well its an odd juxtaposition. I havent listened enough to it to pass a final judgement. Its not a real instant hit. But that is possibly a good thing.
 
 The other thing I listened to this morning is:

Hey markie, I gave Turin Brakes a listen yesterday.....the very first song on the album I though, "Jayzus! Radiohead or what?" and almost ripped the headphones off thinking you were taking the piss, but while I was nodding in amusement to myself at your little joke the next song came on. I ended up hearing 20 seconds of every song on the album....not bad, not bad at all. It was $17.99 so didn't shell out that much but will see if it shows up in a used cd place.

I have all the BJM, either on disc or from your namesake's free mp3 site.
 
 Who are the high strung?

John Vanderslice is the opener, allmusic calls him an innovator, don't you think all innovation is just wank.
 
 allmusic.com - Growing up in Florida and Georgia before moving to Potomac, MD, at the age of 11, indie rock innovator John Vanderslice grew up listening to a mix of Led Zeppelin, Creedence Clearwater Revival, the Kinks, and Southern rock, instilling an eclectic musical vocabulary. Forced into piano lessons as a child, he eventually picked up the guitar in the eighth grade and would go on to form various bands in his teen years. His songwriting went on to add the influence of David Bowie, the Beatles, Bob Dylan, King Crimson, XTC, and early Genesis, culminating in his five-year tenure with the much heralded experimental pop band MK Ultra. Their collaboration would produce three well-received albums that would result in an opening spot on two Sunny Day Real Estate U.S. tours. Vanderslice would start Tiny Telephone, a 1700 square foot analog recording studio, in 1997. Boasting a variety of respected and experienced house engineers, Tiny Telephone has become known for providing an affordable recording outlet for San Francisco's indie rock community and would produce Vanderslice's solo debut in 2000. Riding on a wave of press caused by a media sensation surrounding the track "Bill Gates Must Die," including wild accounts of threats of lawsuits and various harassments from Microsoft that were later admitted to be a clever hoax, Mass Suicide Occult Figurines drew a substantial amount of critical praise for its meticulously crafted pop-perfect sound. By late 2000, there were rumors of a concept album follow-up - Time Travel Is Lonely (2001) - and a spring 2001 tour. The Life and Death of an American Fourtracker, a conceptual match to TIme Travel Is Lonely, followed in spring 2002.

Just the first song sounded "exactly" like Radiohead...I agree with you about Thom and his friends though..they were okay at one time, but quickly became booooring. I saw them live once and it was fine, but no need to see them again.

What I have read about Beulah's forth coming album is that it won't have as much brass as previous efforts, if I am remembering correctly.

 You should also listen to The Coast is Never Clear by Beulah.  Very good.
 
 Did you give the Professionals a spin?
OK, no BJM for you then. the high strung are strokesish libertinesish new york band who just played velvet lounge. With any luck they will support BJM when they play here next.
 
 I hate liking Bobs bands, its like stealing a womans baby.
 
 I have not listened to the professionals yet. For some reason itunes decided not to bother copying it my ipod along with all my other recent rips. I will be sure to listen by Sunday though.

I've heard three new Beulah songs; loved two of them, one was merely alright. Remnided me a bit of Summerteeth era Wilco, but Beulah has always reminded me of Wilco.

See the "high strung and Brian Jonestown Massacre" thread -- I got four albums this weekend just because I'd read about them, and I really like them all.  Short reviews are in the other thread:
 
 The Long Winters, "When I Pretend to
 Fall"
 
 The High Strung, "These Are Good Times"
 
 Guster, "Keep it Together"
 
 The Tyde, "Twice"

"In Ribbons" is more accessible and atmospheric than "Comforts of Madness". This one also features female vocals which helps out their sound.

It's not bad.  Sounds a little dated, but it was well worth the $0.50 I paid for it.

Mixed feelings.
 
 I like it when the guy sings.  I'm not big on the chick's voice.
 
 It's an EP and it's all of 15 minutes.  The intro is kind of gay artsy-fartsy.  The first full song is pretty rocking though.  The rest is so-so.
 
 It doesn't measure up to Cigarette Girl From the Future -- the song.  If you like the first album, you'll like the new EP.

 the whisper on the street I heard about this album was true, it's a great mature, heavily layered and very hypnotic pop album from a criminal ignored band from delaware...
 
 i found this review which neatly sums up the record...
 
 http://www.adequacy.net/reviews/k/knobs.shtml (http://www.adequacy.net/reviews/k/knobs.shtml)
 
 The cover of The Knobs' new album shows a boy whose face is half in light and half in shadow. It's an interesting dichotomy and one that I can hear on Guilt. These are pure indie pop songs, taking hints from the melodies of The Beatles and The Beach Boys as well as structure and style from Built to Spill and The Flaming Lips. The songs are sometimes dark and moody and others uplifting and vibrant. The lyrics alternate between somber introspection and cheerful good-natureness. And it's a style that works for The Knobs. It sounds like they are a pop band that wanted to do more than just create another Beatles-influenced modern pop album, and that's what Guilt turns out to be.
 
 "Pour it On" starts off sounding almost like a Hayden song, soft and depressing, just a singer and acoustic guitar. The other instruments come in for the chorus, and the vocals get higher and prettier. This over six-minute song has elements of introspection and elements of elation. There's even some strings and organ here. "Run" has a more upbeat rhythm but still has a darker undertone, due in large part to the perfect blend of the soft vocals and the guitar work, as well as the low-bass cello. "Have Mercy Tonight" has a kind of urgent intensity but the most rock-catchy chorus and backing vocals. "We've Got It All" is probably the most fun track and the most bouncy. The vocals are perfect, with perfect harmonies, and there are lots of horns in here to make this a fun, happy track. I can't help but think of some of the bouncy Brit-pop bands that play this style of pop. There's some definite White Revolver-era Beatles influence here. "Circuit Rider" is keyboard-laden track with some surf-rock sounding background guitars, at times almost sounding like a cross between a Depeche Mode song and a James Bond theme song. "Cut Out Bins" has a 70's feel to it too, even throwing in some twangy guitar for effect. "Edgemoor Mural" is another stand-out pop track that has the feel of several different styles but is addictive on its own largely because of the vocals, including a whole "ba-ba-ba-ba" part. I'm a sucker for those parts. And the album ends with the mellow Beatles-esque "Mr. Fosters Lament."
 
 All the elements of a poppy, melody-laden album are here, but The Knobs sound to me like a band that's done that already. Now they're looking to do something more, something more mature. This album has a very big sound, very full. And the music has a somber mood behind it. But it's still pop, catchy and excellent. I can't help but think of the way The Flaming Lips have modified their sound for their last, well-received album, creating a fuller, more mature pop sound. The Knobs are doing the same thing, and they have crafted an excellent pop album.

Kosmo, thanks for including the review in your post.  The pictures of album covers don't do me a lick of good if I don't know the album.  And those are the albums I'd like to hear about.
 
 The Knobs sounds great -- a way to complement the many more straightforward, upbeat Beatles-influenced pop albums I have.

That's true, but there's too much to look up reviews for everything.  Maybe folks could stick in one sentence about the album, or "RIYL" type lists.....  But, that's just me.  I appear to know less music than most of y'all, which is astounding to me.

 The "Brady Bunch" have always been one of my favourite shows. I never knew that they even made albums like the "Partridge Family" did. This CD features all of the songs that were played on some of their musically themed episodes. Songs like "Time To Change" which was from the episode when Peter's voice started changing, and "Keep On" from the show where they get on the televised talent show. There are some other songs from Maureen McCormick & Christopher Knight, and Florence Henderson even gets in on the action with a solo performance. Although, "The Brady Bunch" had so many incarnations after it went off the air, this compilation is a great blast from the past, and sounds great too!

Well, I will admit that I have this album.  Before you cast aspersions, I bought it just after seeing "The Real Live Brady Bunch Show" at Kennedy Center, which was so funny my sister and I *cried* during the performance.  They closed with a couple of the better known songs and they ROCKED THE HOUSE.
 
 Thing is, those are the only songs you want to listen to, and it's all about nostalgia.  So there are, like, three songs worth listening to...
 
 Now the Partridge Family, *those* are good pop songs.

I'm okay with the first half of the album.  After that, it just seems to drop off.

I thought the great thing about their live show was that the songs didn't sound like the album.  They'd get in a groove and run with it.
 
 I'm still looking forward to the show.

I would have to agree with that assessment. Clearlake aren't bad but the singer kind of gets on my nerves. One of those take it or leave them kind of bands.
 
 About the new Dandy's album, I like it but have to agree that it isn't their best work, yet still good.
 
 Oh, and Markie, I have the same thoughts on the new Super Furry Animals album but probably like it just a little less than you do. It's just too flat for me.

flat in what way? I was listening to it this morning, and I was thinking the same thing. Something about the production. His voice some how is flat within the music, Rings around the world, the sound was somehow much more bright and the vocal and music much more like two seperate flattering parts, rather than the more dirgey single noise of phantom power.
 
 is that just me?

No, it's not just you. Granted, there's something to be said for consistancy but Phantom Power just doesn't have enough changes of any kind. Really no crescendos or tiny little spaces that accentuate the other sounds. It's just flatter all the way through, from beginning to end.
 
 The production on Rings Around The World is spectacular (which, some hold against it, with claims of over-produced, etc.) but PP seems like plain old crank 'em out production. Guess they didn't rake in the money from RATW that the record company expected so cut their budget. Too bad.

 a huge thanks for prompting me to dig this one out of the archives,  it got overlooked when i got my hands on it.  my reaction when relistening to it this morning was WOW is this a great record.  its got great mixtape potential.   hard to believe that toy instruments can sound so funky.  i love the sprinkling of toy pianos and xylophones on top of some  distorted toy guitars and drums.  
 
 the list of toys used in the recording is pretty amusing as well...  in addition to various toy pianos and guitaris also listed is centipede,   my 1st years spinning toy, my first football, my 1st shaver and assorted generic toy cell phones...

horrible and twangy or horrible because it is twangy?  It should not be a surprise, he has been heading that direction for a while.

Its way twangier than anything else he has done , i think.
   As far as how good of a job he does at being twangy...well, i really dont listen to twangy music...but it IS Frank Black, so it cant be that bad i guess.
 
   I wont listen to it again.

Yes, but with less production. I think Sarah is a bit more over the top.

From what I've heard of the new one, it sounds like Summerteeth-era Wilco. A bit slower than their other work. Also, seems to be missing the trumpets. But I haven't heard the whole thing.

Beulah is good.  I don't have Heartstrings, but Yoko is similar to The Coast is Never Clear, perhaps even a little more consistent.
 
 BSP was released in the US today. I got them both at Olssons.

Funny you should say that.  The second or third song is totally Wilco.
 
 There's another reminiscent of Neil Young.  And of course, there's some Beach Boys influences to be heard throughout.
 
 I've only given it one full listen, but I think it's quite good.

I posted in Mogwai as you posted this.  I think the first Decemberists album has more clear high points to me, 7 out of the 10 songs are really good, nothing jumped out at me like track 8 on the first album although the Chimbley Sweep sounded pretty good if I remember correctly.

my undergrad was in math. then i desided i wanted to be a teacher, so i needed some sort of education degree. rather than get another bachelors degree, i did a master's program. all teachers in new york state were required to get a master's degree in education within some amount of time after starting to teach anyway (maybe 3 or 5 years, don't remember)

 Okay, that explains it. The requirenments are different here but they do require tons and tons of course work, crap Education classes and graduate classes. I got my certification while in undergrad so already had my certification, which I learned the hard way, doesn't mean shit!!! Funny thing is, if we don't keep taking endless amounts of course work, they will fire us and replace us with those who have none of it.   :roll:  That includes highly certified teachers with 2 or more Masters degrees and years and years of experience, all in the name of accountability. Fucking idiots!

It's essentially the single for "Anywhere", with a few acoustic covers and remixes from "Daybreaker". The covers are pretty good, but the remixes don't really add anything to the songs.

Yes, but how intellectually stimulating can someone's job be if they are blasting Megadeth on their headphones? I have to turn my radio off anytime something loud comes on, just so I can stay focused on what I'm doing.

lets see right now I am listening to the verve:  urban hymns. Its even better than I remember.
 
 yesterday I bought and listened to:
 
 Pop will eat itself:   box frenzy
 
 Morcheeba         :    big calm
 
 Nick Lowe          :    the convincer
 
 
 I bought and didnt listen to
 
 At the drive in    :    Vaya
 
 The Fall              :    Totales Turns
                           :    2G+G            
 
 
 Plus I listened to the two decemberists albums and Beulah: Yoko. I really prefer when your heartstrings break to the other two Beulah albums I have listened to.

 Kosmo, have you gotten the new album?  I haven't yet; wondering how it ranks if you've heard it.
 
  and of the six records they have released i would rank it the lowest...

I saw Lost in Translation over two weeks ago (got in to the preview screening -- they had passes at DCCD).  It is really excellent; I still think about it sometimes.  Bill Murray is fantastic, funny but subtle and very nuanced.  It's definitely a character piece.

 This TCTC album is really excellent. Definitely even better than the 1st album (which I also liked). Now if they would only come over here...
 
 And I agree that Lost in Translation is very good. I need to get that soundtrack.

 Goddamn this is a great double-disc set (and 99% of the time, I hate double albums). Put both discs into the carousel, hit random, and let the goodness flow. Plus, it's only eleven bucks at Best Buy if you move quick-like.
 
 #2 on the hi-fi is Canyon's 'Empty Room', unless I feel like listening to the 'Live in NYC' disc, which is also good.
