Gimme some music reccomendations!

[Dr.Filth]

A couple of new albums I can recomend,

 

Yo La Tengo - I Am Not Afraid of You and Will Beat Your Ass.

 

The Shins - Wincing the Night Away.

 

Both quality.

I heard this last night on the Colin Murray show and thought it was fucking brilliant. Class tune with some very funny lyrics in there, even if you're not into the tune persevere with it for the lyrics:

 

"Thou shalt not judge a book by it's cover, thou shalt not judge Lethal Weapon by Danny Glover": class. Great Beardage too.

 

He also played a really good mash-up of the Caeser's 'Jerk it out' and Stevie Wonder's 'Uptight (Everything's alright)' but I can't find that anywhere.

 

What do you reckon to that first track then brothers?

[Karl_b]

That's brilliant.

I went to the Dinosaur Jr reunion show at Kentish Town forum it rocked! Great to see Lou Barlow and J Mascis lining up together again. Speaking of Lou Barlow, Sebadoh rule and should have had a mention (by me) on the grunge thread - JUST GIMME INDIE ROCK!!!

 

They've a new ablum out in the summer! Ace!

[Guest TK-421]

Who, Dinosaur?

 

Have you listened to any of J Mascis and The Fog? The second album is a winner, Free so Free I think it's called.

[Owen]

Yeah, apparently.

 

Have done, but not enough - it's on the list. A lot poppier from what I've heard.

 

Edit: I was wrong - end of next month!

[Stu Monty]

That's brilliant.

 

It is isn't it Karl, I heard it last night and it's one of those you just have to hunt down.

 

Usually stuff like that lacks a killer tune but that has both the lyrics and the tune. That Danny Glover lyric could possibly be the greatest ever. I love the "Just a band...Just a Band" bit too.

 

"When I say hey thou shalt not say ho....thou shalt not quote me happy!"

That is class.

 

"Thou shalt not read NME."

There's quite a few other live bits on youtube of them; poor quality sound but you can get the jist of most of it and I'm liking it a lot.

The new LCD Soundsystem album is a belter. The best bits of Daft Punk, Talking Heads, Kraftwerk and Bowie, often all in one song.

 

Modest Mouse's Dashboard is a fantastic single too, little wonder when it's touched by the genius of Johnny Marr.

[Stu Monty]

This is the myspace website for the above pairing: http://www.myspace.com/lesacvspip

 

Coming up to Liverpool in may from the looks of it, might take a peek.

That Modest Mouse single is indeed a good tune Rojo. Decent video too:

"The Moon and Antartica" is their best LP, in my opinion.

"Thou shall not use poetry, art or music to get into a girls' pants. Use it to get into their heads."

 

Absolutely loving this track Monty.

 

El Rojo - haven't heard the new LCD album but I love the first one.

"Thou shall not make repetetive generic music, Thou shall not make repetetive generic music, Thou shall not make repetetive generic music, Thou shall not make repetetive generic music."

 

I'm going through the other stuff on youtube, Karlos, and I've come across one where he reads a letter from God to Earth over a fucked up version of "Planet Telex", one where he ends up going through the periodic table and another where he tells the same story from lots of different angles: very promising.

[Karl_b]

The stuff on his MySpace is impressive, shame he ain't gigging over near me anytime soon.

[Flying Pig]

This week, I have mostly been pissing off Mrs.Meat by listening to/singing along to early Genesis in the car, with Trespass and Lamb lies down on Broadway being two particular favourites to which I know all the words, much to her discontent...

 

So. My recommendation for the week. Early Genesis. The stuff with Peter Gabriel on the vocals, not that balding knobber Phil Collins.

 

Combine with Disturbed, System of a Down, Captain Beefheart, The Who, Black Sabbath, Jethro Tull and Pink Floyd for musical happiness that'll last a lifetime.

 

That'll do for now. If I typed in all the crap that I like to listen to I'd wear my fingers down to the knuckle. Something else that'll piss the missus off.. :D

 

Uncle Meat, Genesis are cool. Got tickets for OT in July. Also, Aztec Camera/Roddy Frame.

When I say "Heyyyy!" you'd better bastard well say "Hoooo!"

 

Apart from that, excellent find Stu. Enjoyed it muchly.

[Owen]

Stuart - you've show plenty of Biffy love. I've really gotten into the iForward Russia! album lately, and they're not a million miles from Biffy.

[Karl_b]

iForward Russia! are ace. I started a thread about them yonks back and got a full zero responses.

 

I'm still loving Jamie T at the moment.

[cochcaer]

and they're not a million miles from Biffy.

 

I'm sure Biffy have lifted the chorus of their latest from somewhere but I can't quite place it.

I'm sure I told you, but the beardy guitarist was a year or two below me at school.

Dunno, only heard it a couple of times. They seem to have suddenly got huge though.

This from The Enemy is growing on me - The Jam look something of an influence:
