Holy shit, are not the Mountain Goats on fire on this tour?

I really wish I could catch them; I've been listening to them constantly lately. But I've read that another album's due out in the fall. Maybe I'll get lucky then.

today i broke down and bought

built to spill = you in reverse

pretty girls make graves = elan vital

interpol = antics + bonus ep

calexico / iron & wine = in the reins

i had been meaning to get all of these, since i had downloaded them when they were leaked... i love owning tangible music.

strawberry_gashes · « **Reply #1354 on:** 25 Apr 2006, 16:32 »

My very latest purchase would be Darkest Hour's Undoing Ruin.
It's very amazing. I highly recommend it. (That, along with all the rest of their discography)

Bastardous Bassist · « **Reply #1355 on:** 26 Apr 2006, 18:18 »

Oh man. I LOVE NEW MUSIC! I just got:

Nevermore - This Godless Endeavor
Evergrey - Monday Morning Apocalypse
In Flames - Colony

Storm Rider · « **Reply #1356 on:** 26 Apr 2006, 19:21 »

Tell me how Monday Morning Apocalypse is, I was going to get it but then the whole trip back East sorta fucked up my timetable.

Black Dice- Broken Ear Record

Don't quite have an opinion yet after just one listen- but that one listen did have me grinning and laughing.

Bastardous Bassist · « **Reply #1358 on:** 26 Apr 2006, 19:57 »

Man, I had it on while cleaning, so I haven't really given it a sound listen, but what I've been hearing in my half-paying-attention state is pretty awesome.

Bruce Springsteen - We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions
David Bowie - The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars

And then, from my church thrift sale, for $2 (for all of them, not each):

The Wailers - Burnin'
Prince - The Hits 1
Prince - The Hits 2
Pearl Jam - Ten
The Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream
Bruce Springsteen - Human Touch
The Lemonheads - It's a Shame About Ray
Beck - Beercan EP

Definately a good haul for $2.

Atheist - Elements (remastered)

Man, I just realized that after the recommendation I made, I didn't even own the album, or even have all the songs from it. So I saw it in Borders on my break for 14 bucks. I bought that CD like a sex-starved frat boy buys a Girls Gone Wild DVD: quickly and with my pants half unzipped.

*True, but I was not actually aware my fly was open at the time.

How the hell do you people afford to buy six or seven albums at a time? Like, don't you people need to eat? wtf?

timehat · « **Reply #1364 on:** 02 May 2006, 22:14 »

I don't do it regularly. I could just buy fewer albums more frequently, but I don't. And that was like the total from two trips in about two weeks.

McTaggart · « **Reply #1365 on:** 03 May 2006, 00:09 »

Since last time:

AFX - Chosen Lords
Autechre - Peel Sessions ($12!)
Calexico and Iron & Wine - In the Reins ($10!)
Some Mingus compilation or other.

Keith Fullerton Whitman - Playthroughs
another album that the sample and the little write up sounded awesome (hasn't arrived yet and my internet is slow like the living dead today so I can't get to my email to check)

Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works Volume 2

I scored an extra shift at work, I don't have any of that money left!

Kai · « **Reply #1366 on:** 03 May 2006, 04:21 »

1. My parents buy my food.
2. I buy CDs really, really ridiculously smart. As in as cheap as I can.

Camel: Rajaz

Probably the best non-electronic prog-rock album I know. Finally found a proper CD copy last week.

amok · « **Reply #1373 on:** 05 May 2006, 10:04 »

Greenhaus - Another Life
Black Tape For A Blue Girl - A Chaos Of Desire
Black Tape For A Blue Girl - Before The Buildings Fell

Storm Rider · « **Reply #1374 on:** 05 May 2006, 15:45 »

Oh man, I've heard of Camel but I haven't been able to find any of their songs before. You think you could maybe upload a track or two to yousendit.com and post it where I could download? That'd be totally awesome.

Radiohead - Kid A (I wanted to buy this album ever since I know the band, but never got a chance to)
Charlie Haden & Kenny Barron - Night And The City

StupidityKills · « **Reply #1376 on:** 08 May 2006, 11:16 »

Sigur Ros - Takk. (Downloaded it immediately but couldn't afford it until recently)
Delays - You See Colours (aaaah so lovely, even better than their first!)

Last track of that album = SUCH a disappointment.

Kinda, yeah. But the rest of the album is brilliant.

Jeridus · « **Reply #1380 on:** 09 May 2006, 09:56 »

Got Moneen's "Red Tree", and Cadillac Blindside's "Allegory of Death and Fame". The former is great (far better than the previous moneen LPs). Haven't listened much to the latter, yet.

Sun Ra and his Solar Arkestra-The Magic City
-My first proper jazz album.

Narr · « **Reply #1382 on:** 11 May 2006, 20:52 »

Just got the new Pearl Jam album today (interestingly enough, it's their self-titled album...), as well as the new Red Hot Chili Peppers album.

I am happy these guys are still making music.

Oh man, my Sun Ra records are pretty much the only jazz I own and there's some crazy shit on there. I don't know what the hell is going on, half the time it sounds like an orchestra trying to tune their instruments and failing, but it's strangely compulsive...

Any jazz fans passing through this thread wanna hit me up with some recommendations? Being such a huge genre, I feel kinda embarrassed that I know nothing of it.

Enon - Lost Marbles and Exploded Evidence
Of Montreal - The Sunlandic Twins
The New Pornographers - Mass Romantic

I really <3 the Of Montreal album, and the New Pornographers album is rocking as ever.

up with some recommendations? Being such a huge genre, I feel kinda embarrassed that I know nothing of it.

If you liked Sun Ra you should try Orrnete Coleman's Free Jazz album. 47 minutes of collective impovasetions by a double quintet directed by Coleman. Also try John Zorn's Nake City, and his Orrnete tribute album, Spy Vs. Spy.
Also, Miles Davis' Birth Of The Cool, the album that started the Cool Jazz period after Bebop. Another good album by Davis is Kind Of Blue, an album the pretty much started the Modal Jazz period (composition that uses a single modal scale insted of chord progressoion, a lot of Free Jazz was based on it). As you can see Miles was pretty much ahead in every new Jazz gener (he also started Jazz Rock with Bitch's Brew and In A Silent Way, And there is an album called Miles Ahead).
For more modern Jazz artists I'd recommend Medeski, Martin & Wood. Their The Dropper album is a pretty good start with the band, they also recorded with DJ Shadow.
If you track back in the forum you can find some threads about Jazz (there was a thread about Coltrane a while back).
This should cover some of it, I just dont want to derail the thread any more.

Wait, what happened to BB? he could do this better then me.

Jeez, what did I buy most recently? I think it was...yeah it was Octavarium.

Hell is for Heroes - The Neon Handshake - ABOUT FUCKING TIME. I've known this album's singles inside out for years (in fact the video to one of them was partially responsible for awakening my sexuality) and it's taken me three years to actually buy it. About damn time, I owed it to them.

Nick Cave - Firstborn Is Dead - I wasn't too impressed with this one honestly. That is, outside of Tupelo, which is magnificent.

Bob Dylan - Live 1966 - ORGASM. This is so good (and I knew this before I bought it) that I spent £15 on this one package. Ordinarily, I'd buy three CDs for that much. But I wanted this album that much, for some reason. Yeah, it's awesome. It also comes with a fascinating booklet about 60 pages long with loads of awesome pictures and some really enthralling reading in it.

I found out today that 78's has a contempory classical and avant-garde section!

so:
Steve Reich - You Are (Variations)
Loscil - First Narrows

And there will be murder if the phone ring again before Cello Counterpoint finishes. Seriously, I do not want to buy your crap/switch phone companies/get a quote on my house nor do I have the power to do so. WHY THE FUCK DO YOU HAVE TO CALL EVERY 8 MINUTES?

AC Newman - the Slow Wonder

Also I bought The Best of REM. It's good.
