@old has brought this lot into my life, and I'm baffled/beguiled. They veer between full on shoegaze and ultra cutesy j-pop. It's quite terrific

@chris d

I finally got a copy of the third Sleeper album. Better than I expected, albeit very 1997. You can see the route they were going down though with those strings, attempts at "classic" songwriting, and some half-baked beats, a 1998 album would have been woeful. Like, Embrace or Starsailor levels of woeful. Symposium - Bury You woeful. 3 Colours Red having a hit with a ballad levels of 1998.

I just spotted this on the vinyl shelf this morning. Wife owns it.

Jet-s/t lp
The Replacements-sorry ma,forgot to take out the trash lp
Last in Line-ii lp
Pink Fairies-the snake/do it 7"

I gave that Jet album a listen a while back, due to the Sparks connection. I cannot say it did a lot for me. Good playing though. Martin Gordon is an interesting character.

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

It's the Radio Stars connection for me. Some other great bands connected too.

 

[dunderhead]

Fucking hell. Kid Creole has been posting his demos to a rapturous response.

I'm so Sly Stone pilled though I'll listen to anything with these ancient drum machines creaking away for the rhythm, I fucking love it

Thats mad!

Listening to the new Metallica and so far thinking its not bad. Although there are little snippets that are way too familiar. Almost like a really smooth mashup of previous songs.

No doubt,I'll end up thinking it's way too long,the songs themselves are too long,and as a result never listen again.

Three days fucking straight of Bobby Rush's Chicken Heads

The new Metallica is woeful.

Didn’t even realise it was out. Also, never listened to all of their last album. It was very long

Metallica will never beat their glory days of Load and Reload.

 

[Kermit McDermott]

A Paisley underground compilation I found on a blog. I rearranged the tracklisting and put it on a cdr.
Songs by the rain parade. The three o clock, opal, the dream syndicate ect.....

this is the correct response

I knew someone would bite!

(Though in reality, I do have a soft spot for those albums because they were current when I started listening to Metallica)

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

I like load/reload more than justice.

 

[pete]

i think i really only really like two songs on justice, but i'd be hard pressed to name two songs on anything after the black album
