Recent Purchases but better.
Skibas_clavicle:
New cds which I'm really happy about owning:
Boards of Canada - The Campfire Headphase
Cat Power - You Are Free
Dinosaur Jr. - Green Mind (for 11 bucks, not too shabby)
M.I.A. - Arular
Nada Surf - Let Go (one of my favourite albums I've gotten in a while)
The Unicorns - Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone? (better than I expected)
Praeserpium Machinarum:
The most recent purchase of mine were:
Under Byen - Samme Stof som Stof
I love Under Byen. I mean I whore them almost as much as Kai whore Residents or Khar Skyclad. It is that level of fanboyism. Their newest album, which this is, is of course incredible and really deserves to be praised on a grander scale. David Fricke likes them, hell Stylus likes them and that review was way off in every other aspect than the score, though the score was too low. I am thinking Sigur Ros kind of big, not bigger than that since it is demanding music no doubt, but just as with Sigur Ros it is rewarded tenfold. Actually comparing them to Sigur Ros is not that off since both them sing in obscure languages but their music is good enough to compensate for that.
This is their website, give them a listen if you please, chances are you won't regret it.
Kai:
--- Quote from: DynamiteKid ---The cover art looks like it was made in MSPaint.
--- End quote ---
It's terrible cover art, terrible name, and terrible in of itself, really.
EDIT: You mentioned my whoring of the Residents and so I'm required to talk about them now. I'm pretyt pumped cause they relese their whole little River of Crime project in about a week AND are releasing an album on October 2nd. I'm so excited.
E. Spaceman:
I just bought most of A Silver Mt Zion's (and other names) releases, for the amazing price of $10 at a garage sale. I've only listened to "He Has Left Us Alone But Shafts Of Light Sometimes Grace The Corners Of Our Rooms" and I really like it. It's GY!BE but simpler and more concise.
Gryff:
I just been shopping, man. Lots o' good CDs for cheap!
I got Neko Case's Blacklisted, because, as I was sayin' earlier in the thread, she's got a brilliant, mournful kinda country voice. I've been meaning to get Blacklisted for about 2 years, but I only just found it at the right price, so I'm very happy about that.
Also Hex Enduction Hour by the Fall, because Mark E. Smith is awesome, and I've been told this is a good album. After hearing other Fall stuff I've been looking for recommendations (since they have like 500 different releases or something).
Paul's Boutique by the Beastie Boys is another I've been meaning to get for forever, because it's just hell of good.
The wild card is Weird War's album, because I know nothing about them but have heard good things. Here's hoping I heard right!
