Why? From what I hear, it's not like... extremely bad
|
Have you lost your fucking mind?
|
Quite a while ago. Still, it's not unbelievably bad.
|
Ohhhh, yes it is. It was pretty goddamn bad.
|
Wow, I couldn't even get past the first 30 seconds... It's like Owl City. Fuck, man.
|
I don't know, I thought it was ok.
|
This is the last time I post any ToP, I promise.
I really recommend finding the album version of this one somewhere. The barri sax is amazing and Lenny Williams does the vocals like a truly stereotypical Black Man. |
|
Everyone should listen to this. It's a real feel good song. |
DELAYED EDIT: MA, I forgot Trash80.

Has this been posted here yet? The song starts around 2:30.

But wait! There's more!

So, I picked up the new Animal Collective album yesterday, (yes, I'm one of those people that still go to the store, and buys cd's). I really like it, but those of you who don't care for Today's Supernatural, (the recent AC song I posted) may not. It is an extremely busy, and noisy album. And not in the way that Merriweather Post Pavilion was noisy. There is just a lot going on in each song, and not all of what's happening necessarily compliments the other sounds. This gives the album a hectic feel that kind of speaks to T-Nex's comment about the song stressing her out. I like it better than Merriweather, but I don't like it as much as Strawberry Jam or Feels. Anyway, I recommend it with a caution that it isn't an extremely accessible or melodic album, and that it's nothing like previous AC records, but if you've been listening to AC for any amount of time then you already know that not being anything like their previous albums makes it exactly like their previous albums, and that they have always been more interested in experimenting with sound than being really melodic.

I don't think I've ever bought a non-physical album. I've downloaded free albums (and actual free, not naughty free). |
I think it's become less common than just downloading, whether legally, or illegally. The fact that every record store within 50 miles of me has closed down is what I'm basing this on. I went to Barnes and Noble's to buy this. Most things I have to order on the internet.

New AnCo is out now? I gotta get on that shit. I thought the few pre-release songs were pretty great.
|
Charlie hates this song. I love it. |
Run!
Probably the hundredth time I'm posting this here but don't care, it's always great. Oh yeah and some Beastie Boys too to start off the Friday evening. |
I wish I could find an album version of this to share, but this song is quickly becoming a favorite of mine from the new album.
|
I saw these guys live last night. This was their encore.
|
I think I realise why that song got so popular, despite going against all the trends of the time.
The main [bit of the tune - there's a fancy word that I'll remember later] of the song sounds just like "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star". It's so ingrained into the Western subconscious, associated with the innocence of childhood, that everyone immediately felt empathy for ol' Gautier. EDIT: Actually, it sounds a bit more like "Baa Baa Black Sheep". It's pretty much the same tune though. |

Off the top of my head it's Twinkle/Baa/Alphabet in a mixolydian mode.
|
The more I hear that song, the more I like it. Even if it does heavily borrow melody from nursery rhymes.
|
The more I hear that song the more I wish I wasn't hearing that song.
Edit: But don't get me wrong. It's a really pretty song, and it's well crafted. If I didn't find it to be thematically pedestrian I would probably like the song quite a bit. |
This one is worth it just for the video.
|
STM may find this interesting:

Seriously cool video though. All dem boxes. The blonde girl made me want to have sexy time, in a box. |
|
Is that out yet?

I need to find myself a copy. I need this album. I heard Anneke's back doing vocals on this one, too. I adore her.
Still listening to this album fairly regularly. It's become one of my favourite Radiohead records. |
I bought 4 new Beach Boys albums cheap the other day. I'm enjoying hearing some of their 70s Prog Rock stuff.
This song was written by Dennis Wilson, the drummer. This keeps getting stuck in my head. It's sophisticated, but definitely in the Beach Boys style. |
I think this song was downloaded more than IE9. I like him. |
That was the song that gave me my "Dub-Step" idea. Now I can't listen to it without rocking onto my front foot.
