Radiohead
if you go to the website of the movie you can hear some of the music from the soundtrack... http://www.stonemovie.com/stone.html also today 3 years ago In Rainbows was announced on DAS :dance: ...and yet it's still been almost 3 months since the last DAS post

How much did you pay for In Rainbows?
:high-five:

The Morning Benders
yeah... he was pretty awesome! Honestly one of the most unique and fan-participatory sets I've seen (even though he only played like 3 songs). I was going to see The Morning Benders as well at Osheaga, but like briggins said I also went to see Rich Aucoin

How much did you pay for In Rainbows?
I'm surprised as to how many people payed nothing :P I guess I spent the most money then as in bought the boxset which was 40-pounds which translated to $80 USD. Kind of pricey but I really wanted to get CD2, and also the actual boxset is pretty sweet with giving the 2 cds, 2 vinyl discs (that span the original cd), as well as 2 booklets... one that has lyrics and the other that is the same booklet as the reguarly released cd, but as if you took out all the lyrics. And then I also bought the album when it came out on CD a few months later too :lol: It's funny you posted this thread especially considering the album was announced 3 years ago today.

I personally wouldn't consider that an EP... 60 minutes is way to long to be an EP... I guess it really must be going by the definition of Extended Play...haha. I say we count it... even possibly other regular EP's too.

What Do You Expect From Singles?
1. For a single I typically like to have a few b-sides 1-3. Acoustic performances are cool or demo work is cool especially if it's a band i'm interested in. In terms of remixes on singles I think it depends if I like them or not. Some are good/great, others not so much. 2. I find instrumental stuff good especially when the arrangement of a song is interesting/complex. Never been a fan of radio edits... take important aspects of a song (even if it's only 10-20 secs.)

How Important Is Album Artwork?
I think that artwork is important. I feel that it often can help to set the mood of an album, and I really enjoy looking at the artwork when listening to an album, or opening an album for the first time. Of course it's about the music most of all, but I still think it's fairly important.
-
What Do You Expect From Singles?
I'm confused with the wording of the first question. I like sometimes hearing instrumentals though it depends on the song. In terms of radio edits, not so much of a fan.

The - Really weird dreams that don't involve Coldplay - Thread
These are the two last dreams I had that I remember over the last week or two The first dream was Radiohead related (of course), and I dreamt that I went on DAS and saw they announced the new album. The weird thing was that the album was a soundtrack to some sort of video. So I was so excited that I tried to contact as many people as I could as well as a few people on here, but I couldn't get in touch w/ anyone. While I was doing this my internet connection was going in and out so I was missing part of the album, which drove me nuts... so I guess in some sense it was more of a nightmare than a dream :P But I will just let you know ahead of time from that dream that the album sucks and is extremely boring, so be prepared :P My other dream was really strange because I was with my siblings and we were having a picnic. The thing that was really strange was that my dad's parents were there, not talking but just smiling at us. The thing is that I never got to meet them or anything (died before I was born).

Songs you are currently really into/obsessed with.
Not sure if there's a thread, but I figured it'd be a cool thread to make to see what songs people have really been into and perhaps it might get other people into songs. Here are some songs I've been into: [ame= ] [/ame] [ame= ] [/ame] [ame= ] [/ame] [ame= ] [/ame] [ame= ] [/ame] [ame= ] [/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G82q8Yds0hA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G82q8Yds0hA[/ame]

Albums of the Year 2010 - Voting Thread - Closed
There were so many good albums this year. I think that my top 4 is going to look something like this (of course it might change, but at this point I'm pretty positive that those 4 will stay in that position... that is unless an amazing album gets released before the end of the year.... possibly LP8 ;) [wishful thinking :P] 1. The Suburbs-Arcade Fire 2. Teen Dream-Beach House 3. Forgiveness Rock Record-Broken Social Scene 4. High Violet-The National
