caley Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 So, who else read about Metallica liking Justin Bieber and is about ready to Benoit them out of their iPods and CD collections? "You guys who profess to be a fan of like someone who I do not like! Get out!"Seriously, why/how would this impact your enjoyment of their music in any way? It's not like they're re-releasing the old music with Justin Bieber redoing the vocals?! Actually, I'd probably like Metallica more if they replaced James Hetfield with Justin Bieber.

Burgundy LaRue Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Thing is, Beiber has some pretty catchy tunes if you're into pop/light rhythmic music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lamp, broken circa 1988 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Again, a thin week on streams. Fortunately, the one I feel I can push out here is the 10th Anniversary Deluxe reissue of an overlooked modern classic. "Magnolia Electric Co." by Songs: Ohia 1. Farewell Transmission 2. I’ve Been Riding With The Ghost 3. Just Be Simple 4. Almost Was Good Enough 5. The Old Black Hen 6. Peoria Lunch Box Blues 7. John Henry Split My Heart 8.

Niners Fan in CT Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Oh yeah, just bought MMLP2 Deluxe Edition. I've only listened to 3-4 songs so far. "Rap God" is a lot better in high quality. The beat is a lot better than just hearing it on the radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Ray Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Marc Maron had Booker T Jones of Staxx Records and Booker T & the MGs. It's a pretty interesting listen. The fact that Booker started with them when he was still in high school, stories about seeing BB King playing on a corner in Memphis, meeting Otis Redding when he was basically the driver and moving equipment for another band, it's worth a listen.

Super Ape Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 So I listened to Filter's new single today. It was... a thing. Also, fucking awful from the band that did "Hey Man Nice Shot". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death From Above Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Oh shit, Death Grips. If you'd told me one of the five acts I of all people would be excited about in this decade would be a hardcore experimental hip hop band, I'd have had you put in the asylum. But oh shit, Death Grips. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamp, broken circa 1988 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Funny you bring up the "hip hop" thing- I think this is their first album where there's no way to defend it as being such. It's like someone describing The Fall to a dystopic science fiction writer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I haven't heard the new one yet but I'll get to it soon enough no doubt. They've always had a lot of elements from other things. Clearly a group out doing their own thing and really not that concerned with genre boundaries.

ultimoDANK Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I haven't gotten into much hip hop in the last couple years but I'm really digging this Action Bronson dude. His mixtape Rare Chandeliers is what's the word... Dope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 My favorite song on MMLP2 is "Legacy" Great song, great storytelling.. The album as a whole is a mixed bag but I think it's more good than bad. The bonus tracks give it more of a MMLP sound. There's a lot of experimenting going on with this album.. It's probably closer to Recovery than anything in terms of lyrical content but bended with more made-for-radio type hooks. I'd give it 7/10.

Lamp, broken circa 1988 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 So here's me making up for not having streams: this guy, Milo. He raps a little. Reads philosophy, kinda nerdy. He rapped a little more than a little this year though. These first two are EPs with duality, both between producers used and the theme within. The * tracks are bonus tracks placed into the run time of the last song on each EP. "Things That Happen At Day" 1. sweet chin music (the fisher king’s anthem) 2. almost cut my hair (for Crosby) 3. folk-metaphysics 4. legends of the hidden temple 5. almond milk paradise (ft. Safari Al) *. Kenosha, WI "Things That Happen At Night" 1. a lazy coon’s obiter dictum 2. the Gus Haynes cribbage league (ft. Busdriver) 3. monologion 4. folk-metaphysics, 2nd ed. 5. post hoc ergo propter hoc (for Schopenhauer) *. the otherground pizza party This one is my rap album of the year by a goddamn sight, and quite possibly my overall album of the year. There's not a single second on here I don't love. It's also the most aggressive and energetic thing he's put out, written and recorded after the passing of his grandfather. "Cavalcade" 1. geometry and theology 2. sophistry and illusion ft. Nocando 3. red oleanders ft. Busdriver 4. besos 5. ba al chiliagon swords ft. YC The Cynic 6. i am am 7. ecclesiastes This is far and away the silliest of anything he's put out this year. It's his debut as a producer, and he promised a friend when he started making beats he'd call himself Scallops Hotel (jokingly after Clams Casino and before they knew clams casino was a real dish). "poplar grove (or how to rap with a hammer)" by Scallops Hotel 1. budlong woods 2. 50 centaurs 3. karl drogo sighs 4. my granddad's soul with thanks to Will for helping me find it 5. milk toast 6. bergamot gamut 7. evil doer melody (this can't be the place) 8. xergiok's chagrin (a song for jib) 9. one eight-hour shift at the theater will earn you $66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greggulator Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 The Pixies got rid of Kim Shattuck. I like The Pixies well-enough but manohmanohman did Kim Shattuck do them a favor by touring w/ them.Kim's the lead of The Muffs who are so friggin' great. Just a stunningly good output of music. She has way more good songs than Frank Black does. And again, I am a Pixies fan! GO LISTEN TO THEM ALREADY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greggulator Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I just listened to The Return of the Rentals for the first time in ages. Uhm, that album friggin' rules so much. It's one of the best power-pop albums of all-time. I legit mean that. So many great choruses and harmonies and interesting Moog lines and guitar parts and even a cello. There's so much synth-pop of the past few years and absolutely NONE of it touches this album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwoy2j Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I've been on an Ugly Kid Joe kick lately. They were such an underrated band and I think they came along at the wrong time. They were in the weird period where hair metal wasn't quite dead (it was dying though) and grunge hadn't quite taken off. They had some really good tunes that were more on the metal side (Goddamn Devil, Tomorrow's World, 10-10) and some that were more grunge (Come Tomorrow, Milkman's Son, Slower than Nowhere). They remind me of Babu Bhatt's restaurant in Seinfeld that had tons of different types of food and while it may have been good, people didn't go for it b/c there was no focus. Whitfield Crane had a great voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.K.o.S. Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 http://www.gigwise.com/news/86772/macaulay-culkin-forms-pizza-themed-velvet-underground-tribute-band Home Alone actor Macaulay Culkin has formed a Velvet Underground tribute band, but changed all of the lyrics to be about pizza. Yes, that's right. The child actor sensation has formed The Pizza Underground for some reason. Track titles include 'I’m Waiting for Delivery Man', 'All The Pizza Parties', 'Take A Bite of the Wild Slice' and “Papa John Says' among others. Artwork has also appeared online for a release called 'Anchovy Warhol'. SidewalkNY report that the band recently played an open mic night in NYC, where they used a pizza box as an instrument. As well as Culkin, the other band members are Matt Colbourn, Phoebe Kreutz, Deenah Vollmer and Austin Kilham. I don't understand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
