No mari. The moment I wanted to purchase a ticket, the news about lindsey's tour came out. If I want to have a tiny chance of making it across, I'll have to sit on my "music"money for a while.

Well, I'll let you know what I really think of it in a couple of days, or even weeks, after I really digested it. Alot of good wine has to ripe, but I certainly like it at first few listens.

Okay, cool. I appreciate the feedback.

I've also uploaded When You Smile, from Clouds Taste Metallic, which has an awesome drum sound.

I'm going to stop now I promise.

I'm always annoying my friends by making compilations for them, I can't help it, I just get excited about music and want to share. Unfortunately they're never quite as excited as me!

Well, I can relate to that completely. But here's a point where you can share until you drop!!!

well, looked like the weather was godawful, you didn't miss anything there (ok, ok, traditional festival weather)

And I can understand your choice completely!!

No no ("no no, no no no no" ), it's very much appreciated

. Enjoyed all of those a lot, yesterday!

grbml, oh yeah, don't ask me about Midlake... uh.. didn't go. **** the Dutch railway company that won't get me out of Amsterdam late at night. I was so bummed by the prospect of having to leave the concert half way through, I decided to wait until they come to Groningen (which is early november, anyway).

1. The W.A.N.D.:
2. The Gold In The Mountain Of Our Madness
3. The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song
4. Okay, I'll Admit That I Really Don't Understand

Four wonderful songs, quite different and the sound of them need some more time for me. I can't say too much about them although Nr 2 has real heartbreaking lyrics.

After that, I drove quite some miles today, These tracks build up into total headbanging dangerous driversnoise. What a joy to hear False singing sqeeking pounding, racing guitarnoise with supermelodic voicelines although the voices -one way or another -are all insecure and fragile. Beautiful, it makes me long for J. mascis again. Gonna dig them dinausaurs up too this week. An incredible joy this compilation. Thanks thanks thanks.

5. Turn It On
6. She Don't Use Jelly
7. Placebo Headwound
8. Pilot can at the queer of god
9. War Pigs
10. Hit Me Like You Did The First Time
11. Unconsciously Screamin'

shackin'up · #57 08-21-2006, 04:59 PM

Oh, and Turn it on is one of the best songs I've heard in ages.
War Pigs rocks the hell out of me, but hey those last 7 songs all did.

That sucks. But all is not lost if you can still see them in November and you should! They are great live. In the meantime check out the video for Young Bride, it's pretty cool:

Yay!

Sounds like you like their earlier rawk stuff more, but's that's cool. The Soft Bulletin, Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots and At War With The Mystics lean more towards a pop sound, although there's a slight return to a guitar sound on the new album.
I adore Dinosaur Jr btw, one of my favourite ever bands! I saw them on their reunion tour last year with Lou Barlow.

I think Okay, I Admit That I Really Don't Understand from their experimental album Zaireeka is pretty awesome though, although it's definitely the most challenging of the tracks I posted. There's a huge krautrock influence on that track, in fact I think the band are big Can and Neu! fans. The drums are amazing, he's a pretty fantastic drummer Steven Drozd.

Did you like When You Smile?

Hey, why do these threads always end up being just you, me and Mari.

I'm still disappointed more people weren't wowed by Midlake. I thought people here would love them, but I guess not

Oh no, I love those first four tracks alot! But these kind of songs need some time in my ears: not because they're challenging, but because I don't know yet if that quality sticks after alonger time. They're tricky production and soundwise.

Did you like When You Smile?
Yes I do. That drummer, like in OKAY etc dances like an elephant in a porcelainestore without breakin' anything. WMYTYTO-ish!!!

Hey, why do these threads always end up being just you, me and Mari.
Because Gaius is less active over here!
