The Dirtbombs - If You Didn't Already Have a Look

Getting ready for what should be an EPIC show Friday night.[/QUOTE]

Found out today that TV on the Radio and The Dirtbombs are playing around here in October.

Should be amazing.

And that show you're going to sounds great.

The Dirtbombs are the best live band I've ever seen. They are an odd pairing with both Spiritualized and TVOTR, though.
 
only good new shit for me tonight:

G Frequency - Let's Begin (album)
Muph & Plutonic - ...And Then Tomorrow Came (album)
DJ Muro - Taste Of Chocolate (mix)

weird experimental turntablism reminiscent of DJ Baku and DJ Sushi.

Olive Oil - Kogaspecial (mix)
more or less a standard hip hop mix (or as close as you can get from him), dude is pretty good overall

Omid - Monolith (album)

DJ Muro - Super Samba Breaks disc one (mix)

You all owe it to yourselves to check this band out.[/quote]

They're decent, but inconsistent. Some songs are awesome, while others are just eh.

I can see that. I think all their songs are above average, and some are amazing, but to each his own.

I do have an irrational love of everything that Carla Kihlstedt is involved in, after all. :lol:
 
Samon Kawamura - Unfold (album)

woohoo, if you've never checked out this dude before (and he's totally worth listening too), this would be a good jumping in point. Its got Kev Brown, Aloe Blacc, Oh No, one of the dudes from Sa-Ra and Ta'Raach and a few others on it

Shin-Ski - Lonely Nights For A Lonely Cheek (mix)

Cardinal - Cardinal - Eric Matthews' first band. Probably the best orch-pop album since the Zombies or the Left Banke. Gorgeous stuff.

Mylo - Destroy Rock & Roll - Great headphones record.

Chappaquiddick Skyline - Chappaquiddick Skyline - Joe Pernice just writes perfect songs.
 
The Killers - For Reasons Unknown

One of the best, if not the best, tracks off Sam's Town.

Coulter - Senorita (song)

A friend sent me this, I really enjoy it.
Combination of loud, droning sound with softer and pretty lyrics.

Strummer, you might like the album this one is on:
Singer/songwriter Leslie Coulter may be from Seattle, but his heart is in the similarly rainy and bleak northern town of Manchester: ghosts of the Smiths, Joy Division, and a host of largely forgotten acts on the Factory, 4AD and Rough Trade labels are all over the winningly melodramatic neo-Brit-pop of Culture. Even the monochromatic vintage snapshot on the album cover looks like an unused outtake from one of the Smiths' 12" singles circa 1986. Those of a similarly Anglophilic bent will find much to admire on Culture, from the fake strings and Cocteau Twins reverb of the swelling opener "Senorita" to the sweet and sour synth-pop of "Perfect Voices" (think late-era Eyeless in Gaza) and the swelling harmonies and pure pop bounce of the undeniably catchy "Homeward Bound." The only flaw is that once all the Name That Influence games are played out, there's not much left to listen to. There is certainly a place for this brand of '80s revivalism, which is undeniably far more musically satisfying than the likes of the Killers; even the most overtly new wave-ish track, the sequencer-driven dance rocker "2000 Miles Away," which sounds more like Talk Talk than Duran Duran. It's just that even as enjoyable as Culture is, this kind of trick only works for one album.

Holy crap, I just now read that album review....
Wow, she knows just what I like!

Sounds amazing. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the heads up.

EDIT: listened to it. Excellent stuff, thanks again.

Camo & Krooked - Lost Out There

This track is sick. You know your in for some good shit when it starts off with a brash sample saying "We're announcing the beginnings of another stage of human evolution" over a spacey beat, goes into a slightly slow though abit standard d'n'b beat and then then continually revs up till its quite frantic with an occasional lull for you to catch your breath. Can't wait to see this get pulled out onto an unsuspecting crowd



Emiliana Torrini - Me And Armini (album)

been waiting for this one to leak

though I absolutely adore Fisherman's Woman, Merman & Crouçie D'où Là, I have to say that this is her best album to date. Can't wait to pick this up on September 9th
 
I'll have to grab that Emiliana Torrini album. I've liked some of her other stuff.

OK, thanks.

I always meant to but I just never did. But now it looks like I'll need to.

Glad you liked it.

Bedhead - Beheaded - Great post-rock/slowcore.
 
[quote name='Liquid 2']Crispin Hellion Glover - The Big Problem ≠ the Solution. The Solution = Let It Be (album)[/QUOTE]

Ha! Certainly among the most bizarre things I've ever heard. About the only thing close are some of the more out-there Residents albums.

Catherine Wheel - Wishville -disappointing.

Just picked up a Rollerskate Skinny album, interested to hear what kind of music Kevin Shield's brother makes.
