Porcupine Tree - In Absentia and Deadwing... I'm impressed. I was told about these guys on another message board, but not told anything about their music so I had no idea what to expect. Good stuff!
Meshaggah - Catch Thirty-Three... This is the only CD I own by these guys, and I love it! I don't know how they normally do their CDs, but if their all similar to this then I need to get more by them. It's like one really, really long, really, really good song. |

Kanye West - Late Registration... I haven't had a proper chance to listen to it yet, but what I have heard has been impressive. I should have a chance tonight, and if so I'll come back and edit.
Cold - A Different Kind Of Pain... Dark, dreary, and sad. Just what I've come to expect from these guys. Nothing groundbreaking, but a pretty good CD overall. |

i recently picked up:
The newest: Drive By Truckers, White Stripes and Black Keys albums. I really dig the Drive By Truckers, they have a little bit of snarl to them, and they tell a good story.

an AC/DC tribute album called Back in Bluegrass. All AC/DC hits done as instrumentals with Bluegrass instruments. and this thing friggin rocks!!!!
On May 31st, CMH Records will be releasing Back In Bluegrass: The Bluegrass Tribute to AC/DC, reports BW&BK. According to the label, the gutsy lock-step stomp of AC/DC’s music fits wonderfully into the bluegrass two-step and there’s plenty of pickin’ goin’ on to keep even the pickiest quitar aficianado grinnin’ from ear to ear. Slap it on and hit the highway to hellbilly heaven. Back In Bluegrass will contain the following 12 songs: "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap", "Hells Bells", "Highway To Hell", "You Shook Me All Night Long", "Stiff Upper Lip", "For Those About To Rock We Salute You", "Big Gun", "Shoot To Thrill", "Money Talks", "Thunderstruck", "Back In Black" Last edited by Ganggreen; 09-29-2005 at 01:45 PM..

Well, Comfort is good if you are into a very muffled, low-fi sound!
 Steve Albini was responsible for the botched production on that album (and I say botched because I've heard 1st year recording students get better results...Albini had no excuse). The songs are still pretty good, especially Macaque and Screen Man. I'd get it last, and also pick up the CD/DVD combo 'Golden', which is basically a b-sides/demos/history compilation. Good stuff, though. Magnified is definitely the next album to get...it's right up there with FanPlan in terms of quality, just a little less "spacey" and more melancholy. My fave songs on there are Empty Friend, Frogs, and Bernie. Oh, try listening to Bernie while in the car at twilight in the summertime, with the windows rolled down...hard to describe the feeling I get when I do this. I associate certain songs with certain times of the year...like Suzanne Vega's 'In Liverpool' with a cold winter night. Also, if you like Magnified, check out both Year of The Rabbit's album and Ken's solo stuff, under the name of On. YOTR is a bit more like Failure, although not as sophisticated, and On is a bit like Failure with lots of synths. You might want to check out the Replicants CD, a new wave covers side project of Tool, Medicine, and Failure alums, as well as Lusk's album "Free Mars. You might also like music by the group Blinker the Star. All can probably be had for cheap on half.com or Amazon. |

I saw them open at a Tori Amos concert, that's where I first heard their music. Also was going to see them open at a Nickel Creek concert, but my sense of direction screwed up those plans. But I ended up getting the CD at that concert. Good stuff, though I wish it were half as lively as their live performance was.

Yeah, nearly all the Ditty Bops shows out in Hollywood are themed shows, so they are rarely ever the same. I'm sort of interested in what had to be toned down/cut for a touring production.
