On Golden Years atm, and i like it, glad i chose it over Jet.

Jet is awful.

I read somewhere that Shine On's meant to be a mini masterpiece.

Really? I've never read anything positive about it, and the two singles (Put your Money Where your Mouth Is and Shine On) are just the same old shit they did on their first record. One of them rips off AC/DC, and the other rips off Oasis...which means it's a TWICE removed from the Beatles, which is clearly what they're going for. Very little to like about that band.

Listened to Low today, properly, and it sounds alright, maybe when i have some more money laugh.gif

 

It was Classic Rock, so normally they're spot on, so i dunno.

No, most of his 80s stuff is crap, so I didn't put that on the list. But anything 69-80 and 95-present is worth getting.

Jeff Buckley - Grace

Another one of my crimes that i didn't buy this 2 years ago when i had the chance.

That album is pretty goddamn unbeatable.

 

I would also suggest picking up "Mystery White Boy," which was recorded over several shows on his 95/96 tour. Amazing stuff. Shame he had to die so young.

I'll check some of that out. I heard the live album recorded before Grace came out aswell, and that was very good. And some of the Indian/Pakistani music he was inspired by.

 

I've ordered Bloc Party - Silent Alarm aswell, the CD+DVD version, but it's coming late sad.gif

I think I'm about to order one of those $2.30 copies of Victor they're selling used on Amazon.

And it is done. I'll post a review when it comes.

Good choice. Just got back into Victor myself.

 

Today's music;

 

Rage Against The Machine - The Battle of Los Angeles

Audioslave - Revelations

 

Notice the theme there! laugh.gif I was pleasantly suprised with the Audioslave record. From word of mouth, it wasn't meant to be a good record, so i stayed away. Very glad i bought it now.

Got some vouchers for Chrissie, so went a bit nuts the other day....

 

Got: Mudvayne's original EP 'Kill I Oughta'

Aussie band Karnivool's original EP

Arch Enemy's 'Doomsday Machine' album. Totally awesome!

My Chemical Romance's 'Black Parade' album. Alot of people write this band off as 'emo'. I don't class them as emo whatsoever. It just sounds like good, dramatic and powerful Rock to me. Oh well.....

I agree. I thought this album was going to be terrible, just because of their emo past, but they really are getting away from that sound and that scene, and starting to go in more of a Queen/Wall-era Floyd direction, and I think that suits them better.

Albert Hammond Jr. - Yours to Keep

Tell me how this is.

Yep, Queen/Wall era Floyd with an injection of youthful exuberance!

Script for a Jester's Tear came today. I'm going to order Season's End, Holidays in Eden, and Brave tonight; Clutching at Straws is in the mail. I'm going on a Marillion binge.

 

The album is great, by the way.

I've played Hammond's album a few times over the past few days.

It's good. It's very good. It's far superior to the last Strokes album.

Really melodic, quite summery in places. I hear a lot of Eels in there, no bad thing.

Buy it.
