Well since everyone seems to enjoy (good) music as much as I...I figured I'd bring over one of my favorite posts from another topic board to this one. All you have to do is name the top 3 to 5 cds that have been in heavy rotation in your cd player lately. And also name one song that you just can't stop listening to. I'll start off:

Mr. Bungle - S/T
Portishead - Dummy
Flogging Molly - Drunken Lullabies
Dillinger Escape Plan - Irony is a Dead Scene EP
The Residents - Wormwood

Song: "On" by Aphex Twin. Its so beautiful.
Posted by edjstone, 02:13, 27th March 2003:
 
Rjd2 - Dead Ringer
Aimee Mann - Bachelor No. 2
The Pharcyde - Bizarre Ride
The Roots - Phrenology

Song: "Spacewalk" by Lemon Jelly. "Beautiful! beautiful... Just beautiful."

"Up The Bracket" is a quality album. They're also brilliant live. Totally mental.
Posted by RUSS, 09:29, 27th March 2003:
 
i bought the album thinking it would be the bollox after hearing their singles, i didn't think it lived up to expectations
Posted by arsepuppy, 09:40, 27th March 2003:

Posted by arsepuppy, 11:52, 27th March 2003:
 
Yeah, so I've heard. I missed seeing them a couple of years ago because they were supporting someone shit. I think it may have been Starsailor or someone like that.
Posted by earthworm, 12:12, 27th March 2003:
 
Sarah and I went to see SuperGrass in Newcastle and The Libertines were supporting along with this REALLY shit band called Rocket Science...

My thoughts, too. Actually, come to think of it, who are half these artist/bands being mentioned here anyway? I've never heard of them! :P
Posted by Victor Menendez, 12:11, 28th March 2003:
 
Thats a bit 'pot/kettle' eh gary?

Although i agree with you. no-one has even mentioned Elvis yet.

Victor: Not really... well, ok then, just a bit... :)

You could drive a tractor between her tits!!! They seem to protrude from her armpits!

Still would, though.
Posted by RUSS, 12:33, 28th March 2003:
 
there's no doubt about that bumdog, i definatly would, her music is shite though
Posted by beargod, 12:33, 28th March 2003:
 
I think she looked and sounded better when she was releasing her first couple of albums.
Posted by arsepuppy, 12:36, 28th March 2003:
 
But she looks so slutty now! That's got to be worth a few brownie points.
Posted by beargod, 12:37, 28th March 2003:
 
She wears too much make up now, you could make clothing for a village of 10,000 with all that makeup

Still fit though
Posted by arsepuppy, 13:19, 28th March 2003:
 
Didn't she use to pimp out her sister for financial gain?

has anyone heard any of the new white stripes album?
is it any good?
Posted by arsepuppy, 14:29, 31st March 2003:
 
It's very good. Bit different to the last one, much heavier, bit more bluegrass in places, and just plain Neil Young in others. Which is a good thing.
Posted by RUSS, 14:38, 31st March 2003:
 
i shall indulge

Alright! Commercial Album! Thats probably my third favorite Residents album.

Hey anyone who like Queens of the Stone Age. You should check out Kyuss sometime, if you haven't heard them already. Its QotSA's lead singer's old band (he played guitar for 'em). Awesome fuzz rock.
