This'll prolly make me look like an idiot with no taste (a few mistakes

)

East West - The Light in Guinevere's Garden (Mostly good, a Christian band...about 2/3 is screaming stuff, a few rock, and oddly enough, 2 cheesy pop-rock songs and one decent pop-rock song

)
Earshot - Letting Go (Not bad)
Trust Company - The Lonely Position of Neutral (Ugh, only 2 decent songs)
Blindside - Silence (I got lots of playtime outta this one)

And I can't remember which of these two is the first of the last five I bought:

Thursday - Full Collapse (got lots of play time, but only a few standout songs amid "whatever" songs)
Injected - Burn it Black (so-so album, haven't listened to it a lot (mp3s of this are better than the album, IMO, before the messed with the sound a bit))

 

[sacriste]

Daily Planet - Hero
(my favorite, just plain great)

The Elms - Truth, Soul, Rock & Roll
(the Christian response to Hives, Vines & Stripes)

Jeremy Camp - Stay
(think in Creed singer going solo and more pop)

Tree63 - The Life & Times of Absolute Truth
(a little crazy and FUN rock band)

Lifehouse - Stanley Climbfall
(vey unique, dark and deep, but with hope)

(By the way, I'd have to post a entire new thread for the Team CCM with my reviews.)

 

[butteredSideDown]

Polygon Window - Surfing on Sine Waves
Fennesz - Endless Summer
Mouse on Mars - Iaora Tahiti
Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation
Mad Professor - Dubbing You Crazy

A good haul for one day.

20-bit remaster replacements:

Thelonios Monk - "Misterioso"
John Coltrane - "Blue Train"

New additions (for me):

Tomasz Stanko - "Leosia"
Tomasz Stanka - "Litania"
Thelonious Monk - "Monk"
John Coltrane - "Lush Life"
Vaughn Williams - "Fantasia"
Artur Rubinstein - "#48; Chopin Polinaise"

The above are all excellent. Still "chewing" on these last two:

Future Sound of London - "Lifeforms"
The Orb - "Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld"

 

[averydonovan]

I think these are my newest:

Absurd Minds - Master Builder (single)
Hocico - Signos de Aberracion

Decoded Feedback - Bio-Vital

I got those quite a few months ago, though. I have a few more CDs on the way from Germany.

Nice dichotomy between the former and the latter (groups, that is). What do you think of FSOL and the Orb?
