Lamp, broken circa 1988 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 HELLFYRE CLUB. milo has a new record. It is released under the name scallops hotel, which is his name when he's using beats he made. It's called Plain Speaking. I happen to think it's very good, which is a function thinking he's very good. If you click on this it'll take you to where you can buy it and/or listen to it. I think that's a good idea. Also the singer from Future Islands raps on track three under the name Hemlock Ernst, and the weirdest part of that is that he has a lot of flows.

badfish69 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Nine Inch Nails Green Day NOFX The Offspring Beastie Boys Pearl Jam Smashing Pumpkins Weezer Beck Nirvana Alice In Chains Pennywise Quicksand Fugazi Bad Religion Social Distortion. Had to go up to fifteen for my 90's list.. I know Bad Religion and Social D have both been around since the late 70's, but they both had a pretty good run of good shit in the 90's. Ahh fuck it gotta throw Primus, Lagwagon, No Use For a Name, Marilyn Manson, and Rancid in there for a good even 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badfish69 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 How did I forget Helmet and Tool? I will always have a soft spot for the Bosstones album More Noise and other Disturbances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Well, I just realized I forgot Pantera. Ok, so Top 11 it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Tool is one of my favorite bands, but if we were ranking bands purely on the 90s criteria, they'd be at the bottom top five probably. For my tastes, they didn't release a really good album until 1996 with Ænima. I liked Undertow just fine, but it's never going to be my favorite Tool album. If we're talking non-90s criteria, then yeah, probably #2 actually. My favorite album of theirs came in 2001 (Lateralus), and the boxset Salival, that originally got me into Tool, was released in 2000. I'd probably say Nine Inch Nails and Pearl Jam at #1 and #2 for the 1990s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badfish69 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I loved Undertow, Thought it was really solid top to bottom and a great listen cruising around in the car. I remember that I bought that and Helmet's Meantime on the same day and those were on continuous rotation with Pantera's Vulgar Display of Power for quite sometime. Let the rabbits wear glasses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandonr4s Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 The Smashing Pumpkins take a lot of shit (some of it deserved) but "Siamese Dream" is a fucking great album. The first time I got high was listening to "Mayonaise" and I cherish that memory to this day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death From Above Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 The Aeroplane Flies High box set also had plenty of cool stuff. Good luck finding one, you're better off finding the highlights on Youtube at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Posted May 26, 2015 Author Share Posted May 26, 2015 I heard this on the radio, and I thought "that sounds like a Sparks record". Then, I looked them up, and it is Sparks with members of Franz Ferdinand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamp, broken circa 1988 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 If you go over here, you can listen to Jenny Hval's new album "Apocalypse, girl." It's extraordinary, and was almost my album club choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undertow was a good start. Aenima was a huge leap forward. I think it had a bunch to do with Justin Chancellor joining the band. The technical proficiency increased quite a bit.

Ultimo Necro Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Jedi Mind Tricks new album is unbelievably good. One of the best rap albums I've heard in a while, really well produced, some great female vocalist interludes and some fun rap tunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 The Jedi Mind Tricks album is indeed awesome. This fucking Alabama Shakes song has been stuck in my head for three days now. Such a great track. Brittany Howard is a BIG sista. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamp, broken circa 1988 Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 "With a lot of these lyrics, I don’t sit and think about what I should write. Things just happen. Usually that means I write stuff that I would have guarded myself from. I would probably have been embarrassed to say a lot of these things, but I just wrote it. This is how I think about lyrics: If I write it and then I’m embarrassed by it, maybe it’s something I really should say. People who don’t like my music probably think this is the worst rule in the world." Jenny Hval went on rap genius, posted (almost) all of the lyrics from "Apocalypse, girl", and added annotations. They're over here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Dave Grohl fell off the stage and broke his leg in Sweden during the second song of a Foo Fighters concert today. Instead of cancelling the show, they had Taylor Hawkins take lead on some coversongs while Grohl got treated and put in a cast, before Grohl came back and finished the concert.
