01.30.09 | 1, 2, 3, 15, 20, 25 are amazing!
How did you hear about 3? I thought I was the only one on the site that new them haha. |
Yotimi
01.30.09 | Solid list. The only one I don't know is The Rural Alberta Advantage - what do they sound like? |
SchebbARN
01.30.09 | Wow, um, I don't exactly know where to respond to this, so I guess I'll just do it here.
I heard about the Rural Alberta Advantage through the Metacritic forums, and to answer Yotimi's question, they're frequently compared to Neutral Milk Hotel, mainly because of the vocals. I'd say it's great folkish indie rock with real awesome drumming.
I just started this account like a couple of hours ago, so if there's some other place for me to reply to this stuff, please tell me. :) |

01.30.09 | Nope this is where you'd reply |

01.30.09 | Congrats on making an ungeneric list. |
SchebbARN
01.30.09 | Oh, wow, who knew you could be sarcastic on the Internet? So, I rated the albums I've listened to during the year in the order I saw fit and it happened to come out a bit similar to some publications' lists. I don't really care, it's my list, and it's my opinions of the albums. Deal with it. |
SynGates
01.30.09 | No, he was being sincere. Or at least I bet he was. Props for Bon Iver and The Tallest Man on Earth. |
SchebbARN
01.30.09 | Haha, well, in that case, I guess it's just my own insecurities showing. If you were sincere, I do apologize for the outburst. :) |

01.30.09 | Do be warned though, SchebbARN: Sputnik is full of music critics as well as critics of others' taste. Luckily your music taste is awesome, but don't be surprised if you DO see a sarcastic comment. |
Golgoroth
01.30.09 | The formal-ness of my last comment just made me have a harsh lol at myself. "do be warned." Wow. Anyway welcome to Sputnik! |
SchebbARN
01.30.09 | Thanks. :)
And I'm counting on you guys to improve my tastes as well. Just in the last couple of days I've gotten into Refused and Opeth thanks to this site. It's awesome! |

01.30.09 | Sputnik got me into Circle Takes the Square and is just starting to get me into dredg, try those. As the Roots Undo for CTTS and El Cielo for dredg. |
SchebbARN
01.30.09 | I'm getting As the Roots Undo, and I'll report back when I've listened to it. |

01.31.09 | Warning: you may not like it the first time. I didn't. |
SchebbARN
01.31.09 | It kind of reminds me of the first time I listened to the Marnie Stern album. The same sort of annoying quality, but with This Is It... I felt like listening to it over and over despite of (or maybe because of) it. Hopefully it's the same way with this. |
Knott-
01.31.09 | if sputnik knew about 1, surely :(
