I just realised how much crap I can let out without getting a downvote! for example I can start my comment with something completely else than what I think of the list
fuckers!
I like this list - I have listened more to heroes than low, so maybe I would switch those two, but there's is just a damn high amount of good albums in his disocgraphy!
I would like to swap The Moon and Antartica with Good News... I don't know if it's because i discovered them with Good News and then moved backward (and forward when We were dead - lots of great songs, but as mentioned above it's not so consistent all the way through). I love the fact that Good News is so diverse, and still they are capable of writing really fucking great songs in all diferent types of styles.
The Moon is a little dull for me. It's a long record, and they don't really shake things up through it. Still I love The stars are Projectors - and all their records are really great. But I find The Moon down somewhere along We Were Dead
1,2,3 FLAME!
I actually liked that song - but I'm also extremely sensible for older men tearing out their feelings (and all those fake strings... damn they sound great!)
You had to buy a dylan album to get it... that's how a recordsalesman should be :-)
That album definitely made me feel cool about not sharing most of my friends' music taste! but nowadays I really have to be in the mood for that much grandiosity! I still think it's a fantastic record, but it's a huge bite to swallow!
Get some decent speakers or headphones - this is not music that works on laptop speakers... I believe that's a mistake by the majority of AnCo haters (well not really haters but the I-just-don't-understand-this people)
I imagine most bosses don't care whether you look at cookie recipes or naked ladies when you're supposed to be working... maybe that's just because I'm European.
Now that I think of it Not Safe For Work is a weird term to describe some sort of nudity! Anything not work related shouldn't be Safe For Work, not just nudity! I think it would be better if it meant Not Safe For Wives
You sir, are right! ...except I think - in Denmark, at least - more people stream it than download it! I am one of a select few in my social networks that DO buy music, but I care more for music than most of my friends - they rather stream.
Dads do, however, buy CD's because their cars won't play that old LP edition of Dark Side of the Moon they have from when it was made... and they wouldn't know how to download it, either.
Unless you count the B-sides and Rarities as an album (or the into the night ep) you're right... busiest band alive, who still are capable of maintaing such a high quality level in their output! Love them <3
I just hope it isn't as dull as Takk... that was just too much! I like their other recordings though, they sometimes slapped you (in a very slowly and orgasm-like way) in the face, so that you could keep some kind of focus in the lovely trance they had put you in.
I don't know about that... one of the thing I loved about her, was that extremely hazy sound with way too much reverb for most people
....with that said, I don't think this is a bad track, but on the other side it's definitely not Best Coast at their best
Can't help feeling they are a tiny bit pretentious when they make up their own language, so that people would count more on the music, and you are already singing in Icelandic?! (and now you say they aren't that popular in Iceland - how many people were they worrying would listen too much to their lyrics?!!?) ...but I said they sound like Iceland LOOKS not like Icelandic music - and I know how Iceland looks.
bottom line Sigur Rós is rad
not really - but I think it helps listening to The Cure and think "they don't make me sad enough"
..but I believe their music sounds like Iceland looks
I can't really figure out if I like that they sing the misinterpretation of "everybody's got one" that is "everybody smoke pot"
...anyways it was a pretty bad cover if you ask me
holy fucking satan! - it seems like half of you readers in here just want to hear the original album again!
The funny thing with a cover is that it's often tipped around and put in a completely different context - just take it for a fresh take on a completely garage rocking band!
I thought the album was great! ...but I do agree with you on some points. I think it has the really really great songs, but it's lacking a bit in excitement from the band, and I think that Valensi is right, when he says they have a better album in them... even though I still think this album is really great, but I also had the feeling sometimes, when I heard it, that they are still capable of making another album in the same class as is this it!
