This forum struggles without my subscription. I mean, the top 5 albums of 2008 thread is dead despite my best efforts.

I'm currently balls-deep in my annual Low binge. things we lost in the fire, the great destroyer, trust (my fave low album) and the curtain hits the cast. All tickling my fancy and bought for a just few of pounds each on amazon.

It's been quite a while since I posted on here, ut that doesn't mean I have stopped listening to music. Today for example I have listened to:

 

NWA - Straight Outta Compton

Why - Alopecia

Band of Horses - Cease to Begin

Cast away on a desert island

Me and poor Crusoe are sharing the same fate

Cast away on a desert island

With Great Britain written on its name plate

With my umbrella I go walking

Through all the sands on a building site

Across the shopping malls and motorways

Birds from Heathrow fill the

Night with people flying to escape

Friday comforts me and says it's pay day

Cast away on a desert island...

The game and coconuts is plentiful

You pick 'em right off of a supermarket shelf

And all the man-eaters are parked away

Down in garages

While their selfish owners drinking to escape

Lord of flies with c ocktails in his conch shell

Don't rescue me, no

This is my home sweet home dear

Don't rescue me, no

I am far from alone here

Cast away on a desert island

Me and one nation are sharing the same fate

Cast away on a desert island

With Great Britain written on its name plate

Is this some prog rock nonsense?

Just embarked on a Warron Zevon binge after reading his biography 'I'll sleep when I'm dead' over Christmas. He's a bit '70's soft rock' in places for my taste, but once you know the tall tales of his life the songs take on a bit of context and some of the lyrics are fantastic.

 

Also loving the 'TV on the Radio' album.

Not especially well known but a great loss to music.

Where the bloody hell have you been?

 

I had a massive w*nk, & I blacked out for a bit.Then I went inside for murdering some cats.

 

By the way, I am currently listening to Silent Movie by the wonderful people who collectively call themselves Quiet Village.

According to the smattering of cds strewn across my room after the Earl of all sessions I have been listening to...

The Smiths-Hatful Of Hollow

Dr Dre-2001

Boo Radleys-Wake Up!

Lazarus(single version)

The Courteeners-St Jude

Arthur Russell - Love is Overtaking Me

 

His 'country' stuff. Quite unlike his 'disco' stuff, or his 'experimental cello and echo' stuff. It's quite lovely, even if it goes a little Fleetwood Mac in places.

Had a bit of a post-xmas music binge and haven't given any of them a proper listening yet but I'm liking -

 

the new animal collective album - lovely and swirly, like (alt)sitting in the middle of your fave (alt)tornado

the new max tundra album - great in small bursts, but prolonged listening will unravel your mind

deerhunter - like a punchier, less bloated flaming lips

flaming lips / christmas on mars OST - just like fl circa soft bulletin

Hercules and love affair - coketastic disco funk from DFA

Jay Retard - lo-fi indie/punk, just like how mumma used to make it.

Pavement - a bootleg of a gig on their wowee zowee tour, great stuff, reassuringly ramshackle

Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavillion

 

on first listen, all is good.

 

On second listen it sounds very good. About half of it sounds like the third cLOUDDEAD album (that never was), and that's praise indeed.
