Albums You're Digging II

[sulaimanintokyo]

Have never been a huge Elvis Costello fan, but I got this for a friend and it's really warming up to me pretty quickly

[4263]

You know I did hear about that, I had to Wiki them to see where they were from when I first heard them, I knew that the singer had an accent. Do you know if it's possible to hear the first things they've recorded? Or the hardcore stuff, anyways?

I have their entire discog, and some other like bootlegs I think maybe? on my laptop but its dead atm, so all I have on my mp3 player is Deceit

[The Viking]

Good choices. The above image is What Burns Never Returns by Don Caballero.

Well maybe not just the shoegazy stuff from France, but I have noticed a big increase in higher rated Black Metal albums on Rate Your Music. It's kind of more going to be about seeing such a secular genre slowly becoming more widely known around the world, and what that may mean for the original intent of the music.

oh... and have been buying a few albums via this marvellous site (actually I stream the tracks, cop the liner notes, then save 3 quid downloading from Amazon MP3) ..
Everything's tagged so you can also browse by country. Smithsonian Folkways - The nonprofit record label of the Smithsonian Institution

Polish through-and-through so pretty much shat myself with delight on finding stuff like this

It was nice just to sit down and read liner notes, have decent sound quality etc. I really dont do it enough.

Nice one! I dunno about it being better than the debut though. The title track is a masterpiece though. Their '82 album True Democracy is far and away my favourite (I only didn't mention it in that reggae thread as it's more of a roots/dancehall crossover album).

Anyway, these have been getting a lot of airtime round my way;


^ A much brighter version of Berlin, with much more of a melodic leaning than the former. It's good, but not Berlin-good unfortuntely.


^ I've barely listened to this in years. Shame really - it is classic, early electronica after all.


^ Still kicks as much arse as when I first heard it.

i've just been getting into these guys myself...really really good music. if you like them check out school of seven bells. it is a bit different, but in the same vein as m83 and just as enjoyable.



i love stereolab and mars audiac quintet is one of their best. have you checked out emperor tomato ketchup and dots and loops yet? those are two more favorites of mine.
