cranberries fan · 07-01-09, 02:45 AM

Well to start off things here we go!

Then it's been a long-time but hey I am in the mood!

Then after that the man--the legend--the music!

Level 42: Live in Holland 09'
Retroglide

brokenhanger · 07-01-09, 06:44 PM

The Boxer Rebellion : Union

My front-runner for album of the year as of now. Such a wonderful album.

And this:

Bjork : Voltaic

Makes me a little sad I skipped out on the tour. Only a little sad - as good as this release makes it sound ["Hyperballad"/"Freak" mash-up!], there's far too much 'Medulla' and the non-good parts of 'Volta' to have made it worth it. Can't hold a candle to the Greatest Hits tour as far as I'm concerned.

I've only given it one or two run-throughs, but I'm digging it. I have listened to "Remedy" and "New in Town" a lot, though. Great songs. I put the former on my Summer Mix CD.

I got exposed to that album from these threads, which are proving to be a great resource for being exposed to new music. I'll check something out based on others' glowing reviews or simply because the cover art is interesting. Thanks, guys!

joeblow69 · 07-04-09, 07:30 PM

This is one of those albums that I listened to a couple times, thought "eh", and put it away.
Now, a couple months later, decided to give it another shot, and finally "get it". AWESOME.

I mean, read this description from amazon:

Quote:

the storming fifth album from the Swedish collective, who have returned with a stronger, heavier sound taking inspiration from a diary discovered in their rehearsal space written by a mental patient imprisoned for the murder of his wife. The concept follows the imaginary world the patient built to explain the murder, involving bizarre half human/half animal characters, and ultimately blaming the death on someone else.

Abe. · 07-04-09, 09:53 PM

it's been Yeah Yeah Yeahs all night long.

Giantrobo · 07-05-09, 03:25 AM
