No mention of Dangerdoom yet? I'm surprised. I've found that The Mouse And The Mask is probably the kind of hip hop that would appeal to you lot, and can ease you into finding out that good hip hop is a million miles away from the guns, girls and gangster R&B that towering shitheaps like 50 Cent continue to grunt out. It references and samples cartoons like Sealab 2021, Space Ghost: Coast To Coast and Aqua Teen Hunger Force. At the very least, give "Sofa King" and "Space Hos" a listen. They're probably the most accessible songs on the album.

that album was average at best, that's probably why no one's mentioned it. i haven't lost faith in dangermouse quite yet though, his gnarls barkley project with cee-lo should be one of the biggest records of 2006.

Copz is Coming by Purple City, Con Queso by MF Doom,Galvanise, Feel Good Inc, The Bravery single, Rock n Roll Queen, Dr. Pressure, that dub/reggae track that The Ordinary Boys done, Black & White town by The Doves were all great hits.

See, compared to other stuff by Foo's, I don't find In Your Honour heavy :-/ I was expecting stuff like 'My Poor Brain', 'Weenie Beanie' and 'Enough Space', but I was disappointed :(

 

Yeah, what annoys me most about their latest album is the b-sides they've left out are far better than the album tracks. Some really heavy stuff was left out.

 

Love the acoustic though.

Foo Fighters- In Your Honor. Great album. Dave Grohl and his comrades play fanatastic. The second cd on the album isn't as great as the first one though.

 

Queens Of The Stone Age- Lullabies To Paralyze. Album of the year for me. Didn't quite like it at first but after letting it spin a few times it really grew on me. The songs are really catchy, and they have cool lyrics.

 

Queens Of The Stone Age- Over The Years And Through The Woods. All the great QOTSA songs live on cd and dvd. Their live performances are vere energetic.
