Without trying to out-curmudgeon Kosmo, I'm not getting what all the fuss is about this Tutus Andronicus album? Its shouty, the songs are too long and not that catchy, the "lets repeat one sentence 18 times" choruses are annoying. Soundwise its like a weird mishmash of Springsteen, The Pogues and punk......anyway, its lunchtime at the nursing home so I'm off....

Read about this on PFK today (got 8.7 for what its worth) and pulled it down. I liked their previous one but it kind of faded after awhile. I've only listened to this through once but its also very good though. These guys like anthems, and most of the songs are of the uplifting, sing-a-long variety. Sometimes it sounds a little too earnest and good ol' American, like a harder rocking Bright Eyes, but it sounds pretty good. I expect to like it for a few weeks and then move on (or put Daughters back on).

Next up is the new Caribou, which I'm looking forward to as I loved Andorra

I was just steaming that one off Lala.com and wondering just about the same thing... it basically came off on first listen like even longer Hold Steady songs.  really did little to spark my interest...

But what do you do with the CD after you rip it?

[James Ford]

The new She and Him may be my favorite album yet this year.

And this one is actually quite good, too.

Every time I get a new Love is All album, I think "Man, I should listen to this band a lot more often."  Then I forget until the next album comes out.

I'm such a musical luddite. I love my twin towers of thousands of CDs and I actually still grab CDs every morning to listen to in the car on my way to work. Have an Ipod hookup but don't feel safe using it while driving.

I've never much liked LCD Soundsystem and was absolutely bewildered by the praise Sounds of Silver got. But damn, I love the new one so far. Probably have played it 5 times in the last 24 hours. Some comment I read said it was on a Bowie/Eno trip and I can really see that.

very massive attack'ish, imo.

[James Ford]

Part My Morning Jacket and part Jayhawks, the new Band of Horses is good stuff.

I don't like LCD Soundsystem but I do like Free Energy.

I do like the new Dr. Dog. If anyone has an extra ticket, please PM me!

Agreed.

You still don't have a ticket?  This isn't going to help, but they were great last week.

[James Ford]

Who HAS all the tickets?

I can't imagine scalpers went hog wild on that show, I imagine actual fans bought up all the tickets. There seems to be people trying to buy, but nobody selling. Hoping maybe somebody will have a last minute cancellation by a friend or something and hence need to get rid of one.
