Weekly Music Trading Post

And how would he/she be related to Ali?

[Harjit]

I wont lie, thats a great cover.

NEW RULE: I am going to make a revision to the rules in this thread. Just to assure that everyone actually gets an album and isnt left in the dark by lazy incompetent partners. FROM THIS POINT ON you must PM me each week (before the end of Saturday) if you would like to participate in the upcoming weeks trade. I realize this is a bit of a hassle, but i am afraid if it stays as is then slowly people will forget and not send anything.

So pm by tomorrow if you'd like to be in next weeks!

Was that your Stooges album at dans? I saw one next to the computer and was reading the booklet. Cant remeraber which album it was.

[Çö�¤ ¹]

There newer releases are the cause of that. I used to love them, but started losing interest when Light Grenades hit the shelf.

It doesn't have to be Horrorcore, just music with a supernatural or spooky theme?

Yeah, it seems to be what Trace87 said, a love it or hate it. Really, though, I don't hate it at all. 2/5 is actually a pretty good rating for me. You have to understand, there are only five stars. Albums like TheVU&Nico could be 6/5 because they exceed all of my expectations period. Then there have to be room for the albums that blow me away, like Cave's FHTE, but are not a 6/5, those have to be 5/5. So where do I put things at par with Harvey's Dance Hall? 4/5. So 3/5 is still actually a great rating, stuff like Gram Rabbit, 13th Floor Elevators, MGMT, etc. So, 2/5 just isn't as good as this or this. Other 2/5's for me would be The Donnie Darko Soundtrack, early Beatles albums, Ratatat, etc. 1/5 is anything at all below The Unicorns, and that sounRAB bad, but really, I enjoy a lot of music I would call 1/5.



I've been listening to this Soul Compilation today, mostly while driving (I needed a nice drive), and that kept me pretty much in the same place but I loved it. Maybe it was because I was driving, or maybe I'm just not the type to like being where The Unicorns took me for too long. Two things that are important to note: 1)The Mars Volta I think are great, but I don't like being where they take me for too long, either. 2)Ratings are personal and don't really have a standard, and this is just one opinion.

Just so you all know, I'm definitely glad I heard the album. I wanted to dive further into the indie thing anyway, as I don't know much about it, so it was perfect that I got this album from the trading post- the system worked great and I was sure happy with it.
