ReZourceman Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I got Fall Out Boy's new album in the post today... It's just a generic pop sounding cd. It's a shame they've come a long way from their pop punk roots, it's a completely different sound from their earlier albums like Take This To Your Grave. The songs just sound over produced, and a bit crap. Hmm. Think Ima have to obtain Take this to your grave CD for my car. I may download their new one (not gonna attempt to spell it). I'm basically obsessed with Take this blah though. I actually need to stop listening to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coolness Bears Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Alice Practice isn't from 2008, Bear dude. Bumsnakes I made that list mainly from my head and could not remember what came out in 2008! Has it really been a year since Crystal Castles? Hmmm.. in that case It'll have to be Goldfrapp: Caravan Girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Okay, I know I'm really behind with this but Shinichi Osawa. Brilliant. Pogo - Digitalism (Shinichi Osawa Remix) The Whip - Blackout (Shinichi Osawa Remix) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Hmmm.. in that case It'll have to be Goldfrapp: Caravan Girl. It is lovely, but not the best from Seventh Tree. The "happiest" though, except, of course, Happiness. My fave tracks off Seventh Tree would have to be; (in no order) Clowns, A&E, Little Bird, Monster Love and Eat Yourself.

My fave tracks off Seventh Tree would have to be; (in no order) Clowns, A&E, Little Bird, Monster Love and Eat Yourself. I really enjoyed it. Caravan Girl immediately struck me on my first seventh tree listen. I think we are looking for different things from Goldfrapp plus I don't think my musical ear is as in tune as yours for Goldfrapp as you have listened to their other albums. But I stick by my choice. My other favourites are definately Clowns and A and E (how do you do one of those little and fellars?) I need to give the whole album other listen as I haven't listened to it for a while so cannot remember the other songs as well. I shall do that tomorrow. For now I'm listening to DJ Shadow Endtroducing so far it is mesmerising. I'm just waiting for Organ Donar as I'm wandering how it sounds in a whole album play through rather than a stand alone listen. : peace: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, & is just shift+7. &&&&&&& I know opinions varies on this forum, but Felt Mountain (their first album, nominated for the Mercury prize) is their best. Just amazing, haunting, icy-cold trip-hoppy stuff. Black Cherry is bridge from their more intorspective, haunting stuff to their more well-known dance sound. I love it, as their one after that, Supernature, is missing a humanity to it, focusing just on the dance stuff, not all of it being superb throughout. Seventh Tree is a complete departure for them, retreading the Felt Mountain sound, but with acoustic, warm feeling. My preference; 1. Felt Mountain 2. Black Cherry / Seventh Tree 3. Supernature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyson Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 He played Glastonbury this year where he did 2 sets and also did Reading and Leeds. I saw him at Leeds and it was just amazing. Hes touring with Gaslight Anthem (who are also fucking mint) in march next year so get yourself to that : peace: Don't tell me he played Reading Festival 2008 and I missed it...I'll be heartbroken..

Paj! Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I just heard Dégénération by Mylène Farmer, who I'd never heard of before a few days ago. It's an alright track, decent electro stuff. But the video is pretty epic. I love when people still try and make interesting/great videos in a climate where videos matter less and less.

Youtube is so popular that when you search for a song that's always one of the best ways to find it. Any record company with smarts is going to want their official presence at the top of that search list.:awesome: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daft Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I'm doing my year review of the music blogs which basically means I try and listen to everything I couldn't be bothered to the first time (That includes everything MGMT, except for the Justice remix. Oracular Spectacular...hmmm...amusing, to say the least). A couple cool tracks I've stumbled upon. Sebastien Tellier - L'Amour et la Violence (Boys Noize Remix) Studio - West side (klumpfisk remix) (2:25 minutes in is awesome) The Rapture - Get Myself Into It (Sebastian Mix) A couple more I can't find the YouTube videos of: Digitalism - Echoes (Siriusmo Remix) Metronomy - A Thing For Me (Mad Decent Remix) <- Really grown on me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With less focus on ratings from Music Channels and more on just exposure, the arty side of videos (for majot artists anyway) isn't necessarily going to survive. Maybe in the future.

Davey_T Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Don't tell me he played Reading Festival 2008 and I missed it...I'll be heartbroken.. Yeah dude he did. On the Rage day. Iv got into loads of bands after festivals where i could have seen them but i just think well i didnt like them at the time so theres no point getting annoyed by it. He'll be back next year probably :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Sebastien Tellier - L'Amour et la Violence (Boys Noize Remix) Studio - West side (klumpfisk remix) (2:25 minutes in is awesome) Like the Sebastian remix but 2:25 into a 1:13 song...? Will listen to the rest later. But for now; Kristin Chenoweth because she's always fun. Taylor the Latte Boy Sleigh Ride/Marshmallow World Glitter and be Gay She can do quite a range, plus looks like a really fun person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chairdriver Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 I was awlking hime from teh pub, and listening to Alanis Morriesste's Supposed Former Information Junkie. Joining You is literally a subliem song. Like, it would be one of my favourite songs ever if the lyrics weren't really shit and inconsequential. It's about gay suicide, but the lriycs are really bad to listen to. Like, someones mum leaving messages on a answer machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaggis Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 This was one of the first singles I ever bought myself - rather than getting my parents to get it for me. Even then, it was still one of the first. 6 years ago, I loved this song to bits. Beyonce - Work It Out. ...Is it wrong that I still love it?
