ConsiderPhlebas
08.02.10 | Some good stuff here, some great stuff here. |
PigDestroyer89
08.02.10 | skeptical |
dr2den
08.02.10 | we will not be friends |
StreetlightRock
08.02.10 | Awesome list. |
BigHans
08.02.10 | 8-11, 14 and 16 are massively important to me. |
Inveigh
08.02.10 | really? I'm surprised you're that into 14 Hans. The rest are obviously not surprises. |
BigHans
08.02.10 | Yeah I love that album. Maybe its not massively important, I was more including it in the ones I like. Forgot to put 3 in there. |
Inveigh
08.02.10 | as much as I love 3 and Daisy, 14 has never really appealed to me. I liked a couple songs off it back when it first came out (but at the time I also into The Used's debut and Finch's What It Is To Burn) but their most recent albums are the ones I really connect with. |
BigHans
08.02.10 | Play Crack the Sky shreds me. |
RForster
08.02.10 | Hmm get what u mean i do love daisy but there is just something about Deja Entendu that keeps making me want to play it even years later. Though daisy is far better musicaly think its the lyrics that speak to me even if im not an angsty teenager anymore. |
BigHans
08.02.10 | As does the Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot. |
Inveigh
08.02.10 | yeah those two songs are pretty cool (and there are definitely some others that I like) but on the whole I think the mix of vocals/melodies and even a lot of the lyrics just sound too poppy or something for me. I don't mean to say it's not good, just that I don't personally enjoy it all that much, save for a few songs. |
RForster
08.02.10 | ah man the Boy Who locked His Own Shot is one of my faves by them, the last minute or so is bloody terrific |
BigHans
08.02.10 | You are the smell before rain
You are the blood in my veins |
RForster
08.02.10 | You are calm and reposed
Let your beauty unfold
Pale white like the skin
Stretched over your bones
Spring keeps you ever close
You are second hand smoke
You are so fragile and thin
Standing trial for your sins
Holding onto yourself the best you can
Honestly for me some of the best lyrics ever penned man iam getting fanboyish now i shall have to stop myself. |
vanderb0b
08.02.10 | Great list. Just got 5 on CD. |
ConsiderPhlebas
08.02.10 | have you heard The Mountain Goats? If not I think you might dig them. The Sunset Tree is an awesome album. |
eggsvonsatan
08.02.10 | 2 is one of the worst things i've ever heard. I mean really. Can't any whiney hipster kid write that record in his college dorm? |
RForster
08.02.10 | Haha fair enough does have a reputation for being very hippsterish did put me off listening to it for a while especially the 10/10 on pitchfolk but for me is one of the most beautiful albums i have heard. But each to their own i guess. |
RForster
08.02.10 | ooh and no i have never heard of them what are they like? |
Prolapse
08.02.10 | 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 14, 19 all awesome |
ConsiderPhlebas
08.02.10 | They're an indie band, but really centred around one guy, much like Bright Eyes. Just great lyrics over cool acoustic music with the odd bit of violin etc. |
Sheeple9000
08.02.10 | KNEEDZ MOAR METAL !! |
