The Strokes - Is This It
Well, I'd never make the claim that a band is the "BEST out there". I just don't think it's possible to substantiate such a claim. I do however think they are quite good. I haven't regreted picking up the album yet. In fact, I think it's a wonderful addition to my music collection- beavisclone

Britney Spears - Britney (new album)
Hey hey hey, I'm not "admitting" I like Britney :P I think she's pretty, but yes, I actually LIKE her music (Ahem, actually, I think she's a stone cold fox.) Come on, don't ANY of you have just that ONE cd in your collection that is a completely guilty pleasure? (Not that I have any guilt about...- beavisclone

The Strokes - Is This It
Ok, this may be a stupid question (I'm full of them, ya know), but is that a woman's behind or a man's? I had a really stupid conversation with a friend recently where we concluded that if you . . . tuck it in (We were watching Scary Movie 2) then you really can't tell. The shape between a toned...- beavisclone

Where/How do you store your cans?
I just put mine in empty cardboard boxes. One way to recycle all those packing boxes I get when ordering online :P- beavisclone

Need advice for portable-ish headphones
I have a pair of Koss PortaPros for my panasonic portable Fabulous headphones ($50 retail, but you can get it way cheaper). They are VERY small, light and fold up to fit inside a provided carrying case. Amazing bass, good mids, but highs are slightly lacking. Good if you like bass heavy music...- beavisclone

The Strokes - Is This It
Has anyone heard this album on their rig? I have a feeling the cd just doesn't do justice to the band. I realize they're sorta an Indie band, so they didn't get tons of money to record it well. On the one hand, it adds a nice charm to the album, a gritty authenticity. On the other hand, it's...- beavisclone

Britney Spears - Britney (new album)
*Sigh* When I started this thread, I thought it could be a place for Britney Spears fans to post what they thought of the album and encourage others to get it (that's the point of this forum, isn't it?) I expected a few Hecklers and was ready for people to not like the album (provided they'd...- beavisclone

once again, crappy grado build quality...
I have roomates with REALLY sensitive ears. So, leakage is definately an issue around here. FYI, Sennheiser 580s and Grado 325s leak a LOT. Have you considered closed headphones at all? I've considered for a long time the Beyerdynamic 831s (closed). Meier has them for $140 USD (GREAT price). You...- beavisclone

Britney Spears - Britney (new album)
dhwilkin, hehe, sorry :P Guess my review made you waste some money. I honestly loved this album. I hated her other two albums cause they were just plain annoying to me (even though I loved the videos ) She got some good producers for this one and came up with some interesting tunes. Quick...- beavisclone

Britney Spears - Britney (new album)
Wow, I'm surprised you thought it was all fillter. I honestly thought every song was unique. On the other hand, I really don't know what "filler" means. I guess if you're using the concept that anything not meant to be a hit single is "filler", then well that's pretty much every album I own...- beavisclone

Popular Music Trash-Talk?!?!
I've been complaining forever about the current state of Rock music. I asked my cousin the other day what he listens to. He responded "I love rock music." So, naturally, I ask him what his favorite bands are. He replied: Limp Bizkit, Kid Rock, POD, Nickelback, two bands I've never even heard of...- beavisclone

At the Drive-In: Relationship of Command--- the "Nevermind" of the 00's?
Wow! I remember hearing "One Armed Scissor" on the radio and saw the video once or twice on MTV (at 3am) and loved it. It sounded great, but I sorta dismissed it thinking they were another "fad", one hit wonder band. If the rest of their album is just as good, I'll definately pick it up. Thanks...- beavisclone
