What Are You Listening To?

Hell yeah!
Thanks for the heads-up. Love this band and wish they'd play dc already (Snailhook?)!

Wooden Shjips "Dos"
Brand new album. Still very repetitive fuzz psych, with nods to Loop, Suicide and Spacemen 3 throughout, and a heavy Neu! feel at times

No problem, glad to share. Do yourself a favor and check out that Magic Lanterns as well if you get the time. I was surprised (well, not really I guess) not to see it on anyones best of '08 lists. It got by my radar intially but I've really  been diggin it as of late.

I've been hearing good things about it for a while now and just haven't gotten around to it.

did you catch Kuroma at the Scream show last night?  I was listening again to their CD today and am enjoying their psychedelic garage rock with a hint of swagger or something along those lines... It's nice to hear bands which jam with a point i.e. knowing when enough is enough

[azaghal1981]

I did not.


Lazily hung out in the backbar until close to ten.


Lame I know.

Wooden Wand - Born Bad



Nice return to form after that turd of an album he put out on Warner as James Jackson Toth last year. Guess he's over his stupid little Jeff Tweedy complex!

Fans of Junior Boys or the Notwist would be well advised to check this out.

per callat's recommendation, checked this one out - wow.  i'm impressed.  not unlike Late of the Pier, which is also & still recommended.
