Just Announced Commentary - 2011 Edition

I wholeheartedly encourage you to give them another shot.  I mean, how often do hutch, bearman, azaghal, and myself all endorse the same thing?

I bet you're all into masturbation.

Sidebar: last night I had a dream that I was biking through the city and saw Sweetcell standing on the corner talking to a woman and as I rode by I yelled "SWEETCELL" and the look you gave me was so withering and contemptuous that my dream became a nightmare for a few seconds but then I proceeded on to other adventures, the end.

well wouldn't you know it - that WAS you!!!  i was wondering what you were doing in my dream.  i was having a perfectly fine conversation with a woman that i probably shouldn't have been speaking to so i resented you yelling my name - it could have drawn unnecessary attention to me.  the woman left shortly thereafter, and i proceeded to build a pyramid out of small blue tigers while falling endlessly.

I believe this is the plot of Inception.

Sounds like the last time I hung out with The Director...

Confirmed.  There were tigers.

It's funny that you guys were having dreams about each other last night. My dream last night involved Joanna Newsom.

And she wasn't singing.

I initially avoided Feelies because of their atrocious name, but after hearing a couple songs, I started avoiding them based on their music (I also wasn't able to get into Yo La Tengo or Belle and Sebastian, two other forum favorites, based on just a few songs).   Is there a particular Feelies album or era, that I should check out?  I try to give everything a chance (but sometimes when I do not like the first couple songs I hear by a band, I give up on them)...

I saw them once and thought it was nothing special. Maybe they have great albums, but I was not excited by the live show (it was still worth it once though)

I've always been partial to The Good Earth, although I think most people would say Crazy Rhythms is their best.  I thought the last one - Here Before - was phenomenally good.  Only Life has some great tracks but overall feels like they were trying a little too hard for the radio-friendly "college rock" sound.

well everyone should hear crazy rhythms... herky jerky....at times you can hear Luna in it so much its kind of crazy...

the second one, the good earth, is different..a different band in  a way.. coming like six years after crazy rhythms...but its great...gentler though...

they have no bad albums..time for a witness is great too....

Not everyone likes B&S

I liked bearman's response to Charlie aka Rhett aka Space
interesting to see some of the same players here as in 2006 on that thread
