Agree. I'm pretty disappointed with releases so far and am starving for good music! I guess we'll have a wait for Radiohead and Coldplay to save the year....:P

Hands down it's Daylight...the energy behind that song is amazing. But since it's not an option, Clocks is by far best in this poll.

I've had some luck on Pandora.com, but you have to siff through the crap too. You can try Garageband.com for unsigned bands that sound like a certain genre.

Yeah! I don't think I've been this excited since I won the lottery, although that was only $20...

Besides my obvious recommendation in me siggy.... I have been listening to Augustana latey, and really dig it for alt rock w/pianos: http://www.myspace.com/augustana Also recommend Jeremy Enigk's solo album (of Sunny Day Real Estate): http://www.myspace.com/JeremyEnigk <-- great voice

I am happy to post non-album tracks, but I would request that if you want songs from their debut album (Centuries Before Love and War) and EP (You Came Here For Sunset Last Year), go to iTunes to buy the tracks. At USD $5.99 or £7.90, it's a steal! PLEASE SUPPORT INDIE ARTISTS!

For those who have discovered this band, here are two fantastic acoustic tracks I ripped for your listening pleasure: With You: http://rapidshare.com/files/30994368/With_You__acoustic_.mp3.html In Bright Fire: http://rapidshare.com/files/30994890/In_Bright_Fire__acoustic_.mp3.html If you have not heard them yet, what exactly are you waiting for? :D

You're the best Mr. S Now all I have to do is figure out how to use it! :)

I'm sure this topic has been covered, but I searched with no luck.... Does anyone know of free software (MAC only) that allows you to rip audio from the internet for longer than 10 minutes? I use Audio Hijack, but after 10 minutes it will introduce a hiss into the recording. I'm looking to rip audio that is longer... Thanks in advance

Hate to interrup that funny little bike convo, but little help here??????

I'm wondering if someone could help with an issue I am having for the message boards on atease.com... I had registered about 5 years ago on the forum, but forgot my UN and PW. So, when trying to register a new UN and inputing my info, there is a section that is titled 9-1, and then list 987654321 with a box underneath that required some additional info. I don't understand what this is, and cannot register without it...anyone can advise on what that is? It's not a security code, but something else... Follow this link to get to that section I'm referring to....thanks for your help! ateaseweb.com message board registration

See siggy. Awesome band. Now touring in the US.

That's an absolutely fantastic site, thanks Nik! By the way, does anyone know where is a good source for acoustic RH performances? I have many, but always looking to add to the collection.

Who? :laugh3: Let's just say I have very close ties to the band, what song do you want to hear? How about "movies of antartica": http://rapidshare.com/files/20120796/01_Movies_of_Antartica.m4a.html And of their recent performance on Conan O'Brien: (thanks to YoL for ripping it for me) http://rapidshare.com/files/14722119/Stars_of_Track_and_Field_-_Movies_of_Antarctica__at_Conan_O_Brien_2007-02-02_.avi.html If anyone downloads, please tell me what you think! By the way...you can buy their album on iTunes in most countries. Support indie artist!

^ Done. Enjoy!

Reply 102: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: STARS OF TRACK AND FIELD* If you have not had a listen yet, then your missing the best ablum of 2007 yet. *see siggy

PM'd ya! ;)

Hey, thanks for reading my post! On Monday, August 28th and Tuesday, August 29th, an awesome band called Stars of Track and Field will be performing in the LA area at the Troubadour and Spaceland respectivelly. They sound like a blend of Coldplay, Radiohead, and Peter Gaberiel with synthesizers, guitars, and digital drum beats. They have just been signed and will release a full length album early next year. If interested, and you know you are a little curious....just check out the links in my sig below. Hope you enjoy, and hope to see you there!

And coming in at number 9 is............Chris Martin! "It's not his posh background. It's not that he went to college. It's not that he played field hockey there. It's not his teetotalling or the fact he was a virgin until 22. (OK, it's a little of that.) What really makes Chris Martin so drippy are those needy, apologetic tunes: He begs, he pleads, he crumbles, he crawls, he's lost, he's scared, he's sorry and he misses you. Plus: He plays a girl's instrument. Wussiest Moment: Being derided as “a bit wimpy” by noted ruffian Charlotte Church." And Micheal Bolton is not even on the list! :lol: http://www.blender.com/guide/articles.aspx?ID=1990

Here is my two cents: parachutes - bigger stronger for sparks arobtth - see you soon for green eyes (2nd worst CP song) x&y - how you see the world for the hardest part (worst CP song) Every other song is perfect for each album...especially A Whisper which is so underappreciated!!!!

You're missing the point....it's not that Chris is leaving Coldplay and they will need to replace him. Lead singers do solo albums and return to their bands all the time. See examples above. No one is saying that Chris is more important than anyone else, relax. It's just a discussion, and a solo album is inevitable...it's just a matter of time. In many cases, it gives the artist another outlet to be creative outside of "the band" and it could be good for Coldplay in the long run.

There is a thought to ponder...eventually it will happen within 5 years... Thom Yorke has done it, Dave Matthews too, and many others.... What do you think it will sound like? I think something along the lines of sleeping sun would be great.... I imagine it will be filled with collaborations, so who would you like to hear him sing with? Bono, Noel? Discuss...

I agree with that last statement, and I love that you have TL on your top 3 cause I love that song too....but I'm gonna have to go with: 1. clocks 2. daylight 3. square one and vic's 3 would be my 4-6 too.

I put my two cents in, or in this case $10 bucks. Thanks for the opportunity!
