Rediscovering Gold: Oldies but Goodies

<< < (2/9) > >>

rynne:
Done.

*Edit* Oh, I remembered another great one:

Whale - We Care.  If this record is remembered nowadays, it's for the "Hobo Humpin' Slobo Babe" video, where frizzy-haired Cia Berg shows off her braces, flashes her panties, and slaps dudes in tin-foil shorts on the ass with an oversized lollypop.  You'd probably expect the album to be novelty-act filler, but it's surprisingly varied and good.  Tied together by Berg's wicked sense of humor, the band runs through pop, metal, and trip-hop with assists from Tricky when he was still at his Maxinquaye-era peak.  A one-hit-wonder that's not.

Pay for Me

Young Dumb N' Full of Cum


Great thread idea, BTW.  I haven't listened to any of these albums in years; this was the perfect reminder.

blanktom:
The Promise Ring - Wood/Water

The Promise Ring are basically one of my favourite bands ever, and this album contains the songs which capture perfectly Davey von Bohlens changed attitude to life after having a tumor the size of a fist removed from his head. The calmer and slower, almost country stylings of many songs turned some fans off, but some, like me, see it as the natural progression of von Bohlens music as he got older.

Stop Playing Guitar

Jackie Blue:
DEFINITELY agree about Whale.  The album after We Care was also very good, and I saw them open for Tricky on his Angels With Dirty Faces tour.  They were fantastic live.

MrBlu:
Mediafire. Do Want.

rynne:
Which, Whale?  I don't have it on me right now, but can get it up tomorrow.
