What are you listening to? (obligatory music thread)

[CajoleJuice]

What are you listening to, Fancie? Super Furry Animals for the 100th time straight?

please don't troll posters in my ace music thread

k?

Ok, that's a dick move. You just said it was fine for ebw to troll.

'posters' does not = 'music'

EBW said, "And Diablos still has bad taste"

Are you fucking distinguished mentally-challenged? Either that, or you just want to be a dick to Diablos.

Guys please drop it right here, I don't want this to become a flame war, this is a thread to post about what you're listening to. If you want to start a thread to fight about music taste and shoot personal attacks at one another by all means do it, but don't derail this thread kthx.

Btw I take what ever I said back, I just want to keep this thread on topic- not dissovling into some bitchy exchange of words.

[Cyanista]

This issue with this board is that threads are structured like GAF.  There, you really have no choice but to list your opinion and forget the thread in question. . .unless you have way too much time on your hands to hit the reload button.

Traffic here is a lot slower. This board could use something, and I guarantee it isn't hyperactive moderation.

I trolled you half the time. Then I left. But look, I don't want to derail the thread either. (Never intended to).

I'm confused.  Are you saying the way the forum is structured or the lack of a dedicated feature telling you what topics have new posts?  If it's the latter, that'll be fixed with our new layout/software update.  If it's the forum, I'd be open to hearing suggestions.

okay- I call a permanent truce between us (on here at least)

[Cyanista]

No, I'm saying the issue with GAF is that if you have any sort of a life, any thread you have a passing interest in will probably be on the second (or third, or fourth) page of the board by the time you can come back to your computer.  Thusly, why it is important not to derail.  So everyone can weigh in and move on.

Here, what's the big deal?  This place crawls.  Let them e-make out, or whatever they were doing.

Yea. I agree with this. It seems lke there's maybe 20 active posters.

[The Fake Shemp]

Close.  It's really about 30 or so active posters.

On GAF you can just hit "User CP" and see what threads you've subscribed too (which Automatically happens when you've posted in a thread). This is how I keep track of what threads I post in and reply to comments focused at me.

Here I just use the "Show New Replies to Your Post" link at the top, in the User Info area. I still find GAF more friendly when it comes to tracking threads you've subscribed too though.

[Diablos]

Also, bookmarks. Old fashioned, but it works!

On Topic:

Heres three tracks that i've been playing just to give a taste of what i'm listening too...

Paul Schwartz - Wind Love (Love Pace Pace)

The Roots - Clock with No Hands

Richard Marx - Hazard

Now I'm listening to the Chrono Trigger mixtape.

http://chronotriggermixtape.com/

Get the one without the DJ. These songs are really funny. Cloudwalking knows! My favorite is the rap song mix to "Wind Scene" with Young Jeezy. It's so unlikely and bizarre... but it WORKS. And not to mention, it's hilarious.

do... do...
niccas, BITCHES, BITCH ASS niccas!



Be warned: If you really like Chrono Trigger, these remixes will no doubt ruin the original songs for you.

[enjoy bell woods]

As a music fan you don't turn on a dozen bands you thought were totally awesome two weeks ago. And I've been listening to The Fall far longer than I've known about rojodiablo. Though if I hadn't, I wouldn't mind. He appreciates a lot of the same music as me (huge SFA fan), so I tend to trust his recs.

So, what exactly are you trying to say?  I listen to the music I listen to (http://last.fm/user/1234007) so I can be cool?  Your schtick wears thin when you try too hard.

[Diablos]

Anyway...

Spinnington, you were right! Cave In's Jupiter is amazing!



Found this at the record store and remembered I had to listen to it (thanks to Spinnington telling me to do so like 10 times ). I cannot suggest this band enough. Everyone listen to Jupiter when you get a chance. What an awesome album.

Here is what I am saying: you listen to the music you listen to because you have no personality and have no idea how to enjoy a couple albums and not download five dozen a week and dispose of all you were listening to before.

I have no schtick. I speak from the heart. Stop being such a braindead teenager and awesome tastemakers like me will treat you with respect.

Thanks for the link, btw. Illustrates my point beautifully--http://www.last.fm/user/1234007/journal/2006/08/7/201807/. Weren't they your "favorite" band like four months ago? Dork.

This has been my favorite album as of late, even though it came out it 2003 I just got it. 

EDIT: For great justice!

No, I believe I started hating them after that's all everyone ever talked about.  I even explicitly stated this in every GAF thread related to them thereafter.  But hey, thanks for ignoring the real reason I posted my last.fm.  You know, to show you what I listen to.  Once again you prove to the world that you try too hard.  I actually forgot what you were trying to lambast me for.


Ah, right.  Because I don't listen to bands that I used to.  Real zinger right there, buddy.

I've been digging Sia Furler lately. Never knew she was the neice of Colin Hay (from Men at Work).

"Breath Me"

"The Bully"

"Numb"

Dude, quit acting like you don't know what I'm talking about. You stopped liking your favorite band--the band that gave you the most amazing album ever, Kid A--because "that's all everyone ever talked about.""

[Diablos]

Radiohead's fanbase at times makes me want to stop listening, too.
He's allowed... why does this bother you?

[MrAngryFace]

I only liked The Bends. Then it got all weird.

[BlueTsunami]

I actually discovered an album named "Era". The music is great, a mixture between Electronica and Gregorian Chanting. The music is very haunting. One of the most notable songs is "Era - Ameno"

I'm only halfway through that Cave In album, Jupiter, but WOW. This is some really good stuff. I guess I have to thank Mr. Spinnington because apparently he recommended it to Diablos (don't see it in this thread though, probably over at GAF). But thanks to Diablos for posting it in here.

It was either Spinnington or Strangelove.
Don't know why I'm getting them confused.

^looks like the kind of music that makes a guy want to blow his brains out.

[Diablos]

cloudwalking, you should check out "Citrus" by Asobi Seksu. They're from NYC (IIRC) but the lead singer mostly sings in Japanese.



They're really cool. Like Blondie meets My Bloody Valentine.
(You should also check out My Bloody Valentine's "Loveless" even though it has nothing to do with Japanese culture).

At this moment, it's "Spitfire" by Prodigy.  Great workout music.
