Today's CDs (9/19)
The Disco Biscuits - Senor Boombox
Tin Hat Trio - The Rodeo Eroded
The Gourds - Cow Fish Fowl or Pig
Coldplay - A Rush of Blood to the Head
moe. - Warts & All Volume 2
The new Coldplay and Disco Biscuits discs are surprisingly great. I didn't care much for Coldplay's first disc. There wasn't much not to like; it was just a bit too bland. Their new disc is such a huge step forward...few bands make such a huge leap from their debut to their sophomore album.
The Disco Biscuits are a great live band, but this is their first great studio album. It sounds like a mix tape full of great songs you've never heard before. Songs are all over the place...for instance, track 1 is jammy rock, track 2 is live house, and track 3's got a bit of a hip hop feel. For anyone who knows who Bran Van 3000 are, Senor Boombox reminds me of a jam band Bran Van album. Good stuff...

Erase Eratta - Other Animals
Rocket from the Crypt - Group Sounds
RFTC - Scream, Dracula, Scream
RFTC - All Systems Go
RFTC - Circa: Now
RFTC - Live from Camp X-Ray
The Action - Rolled Gold
Oneida - Each One Teach One
Oneida - Come On Everybody Let's Rock
Oneida - Anthem on the Moon
So, as you might guess, I'm working on Oneida and RFTC pieces today. Each of their new albums are excellent.
As far as Coldplay is concerned, "Trouble" is a wonderful song. Everything else is as inoffensive as music can get. Which is not a good thing.

So far my favourite track is Obsessions.
I think that if you enjoy disc 1 of sci-fi like I do, thats what was in the car today, you will really like this...
its released in the uk on sept 30... I advise a purchase.
