Mr_Odwin Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Downward spiral. And Pretty Hate Machine, too... but Downward Spiral wins the prize. Ignore that, Pretty hate machine quite sucks... I meant Broken. lol. But yeah, The Downward Spiral. Broken and The Downward Spiral are great albums and a good place to start. Pretty Hate Machine is a bit late 80s-ish, but has some good stuff on there. You could start by legally downloading his newer stuff. The Slip and Ghosts I-IV are released under a Creative Commons (free) license - so downloading them via torrents is legit. The lossless versions were released too. Basically, Nine Inch Nails are awesome.
thirtynine. Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Burial = Shit. I have rediscovered the postal service they are win.
Dan_Dare Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 you're really, really wrong. still can't stop listening to mogwai. been this way for a week now- my entire music collection is withering on the vine in neglect. Anyone else got their mits on The Hawk Is Howling yet? It's just fantastic.
Oxigen_Waste Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Burial = Shit.I have rediscovered the postal service they are win. Even though you posted my favourite post in this forum, Burial is the best thing to ever come out of Dubstep... it takes a genius to take a genre that shitty and turn it into something so good. He and Boxcutter were the only ones who made it.
The fish Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 I have rediscovered the postal service they are win. Such Great Heights is my favourite song at the moment. It's great for when in das auto too.
Portlett Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 listening to the new kings of leon album on last.fm and its sounding pretty damn sexy.!
Paj! Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Burial = Shit. Good god, will the insanity never end? ---- I can't stop listening to another Mercury nominated album, The Bairns, by Rachel Unthank & The Winterset. I would never have pegged myself as a fan of rearranged old northern england folk songs, but yeah. It's great. And Liz Phair...Exile In Guyville is great. Thought it would be with all the praise I read about it before buying it.
chairdriver Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 I hate how the new Bjork video is in three distinct sections. They should have just either gone with the white faces or the close-ups all the way through.
Paj! Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 I hate how the new Bjork video is in three distinct sections. They should have just either gone with the white faces or the close-ups all the way through. Yeah, but part of the bag was that it was done by 3 different people. Although, why would you be so boring as to only do the whiteout if you actually have them both at your beck and call?
Slaggis Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Leona - Forgive Me Video How are they going to get away with releasing this as the next single off the album, when it was only on the international albums. The UK never got this. Anyways, the video's not so bad. It's a little odd, but I like the bits in the street.

Look at Rihanna. (Though it's an OLD tactic)
Goron_3 Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Metallica just performed 'The Day That Never Comes' live on BBC something (2 i think). Pretty good stuff though I still question Hetfield's voice at times. That said, Kirk was mental as always.
DomJcg Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 You liked that? i felt it was pretty boring, everytime they got to a good bit they switched the tempo and it fell flat.
Goron_3 Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 You liked that? i felt it was pretty boring, everytime they got to a good bit they switched the tempo and it fell flat. The songs like that though; it's quite calm up until the solo (second half of the song). They should have done Battery after me thinks...

I think she looks absoloutely stunning in her video, and the song isn't bad, either. Any uploads to Youtube will fail, though:it's exclusive to C4 and Muzu only. Love it. This video is just Leona gold.
ipaul Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Just bought Moon Safari by Air, hope it is as good as all of their other albums! What are people's favourite Air album?
Tom Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 my fave is moon safari hands down. It's one of my favourite albums. Its the audio equivelent of a warm, sunday summers evening with a nice breeze. or thats how i feel anyway!
chairdriver Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 I bought Nicole Atkins' album Neptune City today, spontaneously. Just listening right now.
Paj! Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Just finished making my dad an introductory PJ Harvey mix CD. For all the CD's I lend him (he actually has really good music taste), I forgot about her...she's right up his alley too. If anyone's interested, I know there are a few fans here, here's what I made, to cover her sound; 1. To Bring You My Love 2. This Mess We're In (Feat. Thom Yorke) 3. A Perfect Day Elise 4. Sheela-Na-Gig 5. Man-Size 6. White Chalk 7. Shame 8. You Said Something 9. No Girl So Sweet 10. Easy 11. Me-Jane 12. When Under Ether 13. The Wind 14. This Is Love 15. I Think I'm A Mother 16. Pocket Knife 17. Long Snake Moan 18. The Devil 19. Snake 20. Plants and Rags 21. Down By The Water 22. The Slow Drug 23. Big Exit Missing out Rid Of Me hurts a little, but I hate how it's recorded so quietly, plus it didn't really fit anywhere. I regret not including We Float, but it's so darn long, it would take up too much space.
Eenuh Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Just bought Moon Safari by Air, hope it is as good as all of their other albums! What are people's favourite Air album? That reminds me I should buy some of their albums someday. Always loved their music but never got around to buying something. Saw them live once though, was a really nice experience. =)
chairdriver Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 I just remembered how perfect White Chalk by PJ Harvey is as an album. Definitely one I'll be listening to for the rest of my life.
Dan_Dare Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 SHE'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE, OH AYE! anyone?
DomJcg Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 But ain't no sunshine when SHE'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE, OH AYE! anyone? ammi right?
