What I am Listening to Today.

<< < (2/3) > >>

SeanBateman:
While listening to AC Newman, I pondered aloud in Gabbly as to who he was. Having been filled in by Emilio that he was a member of the New Pornographers, I decided to give the band another chance, since I had been enjoying Mr. Newman's sounds quite thouroughly. As I began listening to Mass Romantic, I was immedeatly impressed with the force of the percussion, and the guitar was really poppy and enjoyable. However, after hearing that song, I have decided that Neko Case should have her tounge ripped out and fed to her, because fuck I hate her voice.

I will listen to more and report back.

SeanBateman:
Okay this is actually really depressing. They play really really good music. They are clearly very good at insturments, but I just can not handle the singing. I got about 5 songs in, and once Jackie sounded exactly like a fucking mediocre smashing pumpkins song, I had to quit.

I am actually really liking Electric Version so far.

ScrambledGregs:
Neko Case has an amazing voice. Unlike practically every other singer I hear, she's got personality and emotion in her voice that I believe rather than think is an affectation or an act.

For a second when you said 'Jackie' I thought you meant the song 'Jackie, Dressed In Cobras' and I was going to ask if you had any ears, and if so, if those ears were stuffed with Bily Corgan's tongue, because that song sounds nothing like the Pumpkins at all.

SeanBateman:
Nope I meant Jackie off of Mass Romatic, which sounds like a weird mix of Decemberists and Pumpkins that makes me kind of want to vomit. Electric Version is really fucking good though.

I have moved on to ace of base, and I am not really sure why.

It's just on that one song, and I don't get why, but I can't stop thinking it.

I'm listening to the 13th floor elevators right now. I do not know where they came from or how they got on my computer, but as far as blues rock goes, their pretty good so far. They have a little bit of weirdness to them, like the synth line in the background of Slide Machine, but mostly it's just a dude singin songs about missing a girl or somethin like that, and his voice is pretty awesome.

Felix make your own thread, this is what I am listening to today
