^ Awesome! Glad you enjoy it. I know I don't write them like a music pro or anything...I just try to write honestly about why I think the album is good and what it means to me.

 

I think sometimes people get so caught up in trying to like "good" music. But sometimes it isn't the best music that you like the best.

Very well said... I really liked what Space Cadet said earlier about how people hear music differently. Often I'll wish someone could hear a song "through my ears" and visa versa. Take Sigur Ros for example. I just dont hear what a lot of others seem to be hearing. I know it MUST be a good album or folks wouldnt be listening and listing it in their charts. But, I play it and Im like hmmmm..... Its just ok. I would like Fleet Foxes more if they didnt sound so much like Band Of Horses (one of my favorite bands) So, Im biased and probably ranked it lower than I should have. Something about thier similar sound just erks me and I say "This is Band Of Horses" and turn it off and start listening to them instead:rolleyes:. Truth be told I love it all ---- music. Even some of the worst songs are memorable and at times fun to listen to for some reason...

 

Probably should have sent a PM. LOL sorry for going on

 

PS:P I added Anathallo to my list... #15, 16 or so They are a Chicago based band all should hear...

Last Call!!!!!

 

I'll leave it open for an extra couple of house due to the rockoff results.

Frightened Rabbit - The Midnight Organ Fight

Sigur Rós - Með Suð Í Eyrum Við Spilum Endalaust

So Erin, could you remove the lists made under my main account and use the list my brother kindly posted for me using this account.

 

I'm slowly recovering from a rather nasty illness which has knocked me out of action for the past couple weeks, but I'm not up-to full strength though, I still get coughing fits where my mucosae goblet cells are a bit damaged and produce too much mucus, but I should be back full-time at the weekend ;)

KON's list = amazing.

 

Why thank you Brigs :)

*nods*
