duuuude nobunny - "love visions" definitely in top 3 of last year and ur pick between: Teenage Panzerkorps [grimey, droney, lo-fi german garage punk] or Pink Reason - "By A Thread EP" [sounds like a depressing blank dogs] (though pink reason is kinda all over the place as far as...

op: yeaa been listening to Blank Dogs a lot myself. new lp out soon [or out already? not sure...] on a similar trip as Blank Dogs, been listening to a lot of Pink Reason, Nice Face, Teenage Panzerkorps, Wizzard Sleeve, Religious Knives, Wounded Lion, Times New Viking, Nobunny, Jay Reatard...

This thread is horrible.

Don van Vliet aka Captain Beefheart Strangest in a good way.

Here's some more hip-hop for you... Dälek - Absence Dälek is an avant-garde hip-hop duo (mwallace was right ), featuring intelligent, socially conscious lyrics and beats comprised of layer and layers of distorted ambient noise on a level comparable to any shoegaze or Krautrock band...

Xiu Xiu - "Fabulous Muscles" I like it because it's interesting noise-pop. I'm not particularly good at reviewing the music I enjoy, Davey, so I apologize for posting other people's reviews.

Pelican Red Sparrows Russian Circles Maudlin of the Well Kayo Dot Naked City The Flying Luttenbachers Ruins Lightning Bolt Hella Orthrelm Fush itsusha (there's no space in the name, but the auto-censor messed it up) Koenji Hyakkei Estradasphere Sleepytime Gorilla Museum Mouth of...

Russian Circles - "Enter" Great debut album from a post-rock trio (I think they're just a trio). Their sound falls somewhere between the hardness of Pelican and the delicateness of Explosions in the Sky but somehow without sounding like another lame derivative of either (unlike most...

Adaptive Pitch: 0.75 Hz Rhythm: 76.0% Tone: 83.3% Did all the tests using a pair of ER6i's plugged into the horrible headphone out jack built in to my laptop (which has a messed up soundcard)... I wonder if I'd do better with a better rig

Old Time Relijun - "Witchcraft Rebellion" Witchcraft Rebellion is easily the most consistent release to date from this raucous, ramshackle trio led by Arrington DeDionyso and featuring the Microphones' Phil Elvrum on drums (who, by the way, is an excellent drummer; he's not on board...

I've been using this really slim interconnect that I borrowed from my friend with my pair of RP-15MCs. It fits perfectly and is just the right length for portable use. I have no idea where it came from (asked my friend when I first borrowed it and he didn't know either) but I'm hoping my buddy...

Thanks for the heads up! I just ordered a blue pair (black was sold out, darn you guys ) and I'm looking forward to hearing them!

Just got some of the new Stone Vertical Epic (070707) which for some reason came out early this year (at least at Whole Foods). It's very sweet with a lot of spice thrown in as well. Good Belgian-style ale, reminds me of Kwak kinda. Can't wait for their 10th Anniversary IPA growler fill this...
