I like "New Noise". That one is so cool!! 8) YES!!! It's great! Volcanic! Didn't think anybody would know them. I bow to our good taste! I have a friend in Bruhl, gotta write back soon... Thanks for reminding me!

Err... Haven't tried the features yet, but I'll take a look... I'm truly giddy as a schoolgirl after hearing the rest of the "The Secret of Elena's Tomb" EP. We have the Sonic Youth stylings on the first three tracks, as well as clever cello and female b/u vocals. Track four was kinda jaw-dropping: ACOUSTIC GUITARS!!! Yeah! It's like a sultry Sunday afternoon, a lively summer frock, and a warm cup of Tennessee Jack! I was floored by #5... Get this, a HARDCORE DISCO NUMBER!!! That's how it was for me at least... It's danceable T.O.D. my friends, and that's a good thing! Please forgive me if this posting is an uninteligable, gooey mess... It's gotta be the cough syrup... Or the Jack... 8)

Re: Sigur Ros I love Sigur Ros so much that I'm gonna my first child "Oh Hlither Nee", hehe. That's how I transliterate one of his lovely cooings... I think I may have said this before, but no one's listening anyway: "Sigur Ros is what my insides sound like..." I love anyone of you out there who's cried hot steamy tears to their new album, ()...

Hmm... How about some Refused? Hardcore anyone??? "Deadly Rhythm" would do nicely! :twisted:

It's cool, so far... I listened to the first two tracks (2/5)... I hope they have some more ferocious (my buzz word for them, feel free to appropriate!) songs, like on their first. But I fear them boys has matured a bit... Sound too gentlemanly... Still love the hell out of them! Sigur Ros and Trail of Dead, yeah!!!

"Cedar Room" by Doves Sorta like the storm breaking, you know? Gotta luv dem boys, even if "Last Broadcast" has a lot of weak spots...

Anyone speak Chinese??? 我 認 為 連 一 個 都 沒 有... 好 討 厭! :?

Check out the "And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead" thread, if it's still at the top. :-x

Damn, this thread was at the very bottom! Trail of Dead are my FAVORITE band! You gotta check out their first two albums (S/T and "Madonna"). They are far more ferocious than their latest, though the latest is damn sweet. I saw them live last October and one of the singers (there are three--and they switch instruments like couples at a key party!)--Conrad Keely. He actually walked up to me and my brother as we standed in line and asked us if we knew a good stakehouse in SLC. We're both vegetarians of course. Shook hands with him after the show and he seemed to appreciate my appreciation. Then bumped into the drummer (my favorite drummer of all time! damn what's his name?), who is also a guitarist/vocalist--sings the more ferocious songs, but not always. He seemed appreciative as well, actually had the biggest grin I've ever seen! :D So what the hell am I talking about here kids? I dunno. Just hope some kid reads this and grows up to be the first female/populist president of the US. God bless! Goodnight!

Ryan Adams is cool. The song "Chicago" off of "Demolition" is just amazing. Sweet melancholy. Lost love. Yeah. Anyone listening? Hmm...

What's that one song by BBMak? The "Outta my heart, into your hands" one... Yep. That one.

i like that song :D Yeah! They're cool. I like "Rifles" better though.

OK. A new day, a new song: "Half of What" by And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead

Oooh baby! Gotta luv them sweet-talking Hungarians! (Anyone know what I'm talking about here?)

lol... Hey your description is good enough for me! I have a reason to get through the winter now! Ah, yes! I'm feelin' fine tonight! Thx for the tip!

I've been meaning to pick their new one up. Someone said I'd like them cause I'm mad about Sigur Ros. I'll be diggin pennies from my couch. Can't resist a Sigur Ros-ish band. But it'll be tough to live up to, u know? Yes U!!! YOU KNOW!?

But everyone know's that already from the unmistakeable stink of desperation in my voice! lol

Yeah, it always does--don't worry. Or maybe I could track down a flowing "Polly wig"? What d'you think? I'll ditch the dress for the feminine Elvis look and... umm... I should stop before I really start making Polly feel wierd. hehe D'you think she reads this board??? lol (Let me assure any concerned individual, incl. Ms. Harvey, that I am an exceptionally enthusiastic admirer, and am just poking fun at u internet nutters out there--You know who you are!)

no no--i'm seriously gonna change it. i sound like an arrogant bastard. how does "climbing up the walls" sound? hehe or maybe just stick with the same theme and go with "right behind you", but then everyone would think I'm a creep and they'd always be looking over their shoulders and all i want is to be loved!!! lol

My favorite off of Surfer Rosa has to be Vamos! It's so crazy! I love it, it's like I got tarantulism and I'm being torn apart by rabid Spaniards. lol (I love the Spaniards, btw.) :-D

That's just a front. I'm really cowering in my windowless basement. Anyone who likes Interpol and PJ is my friend, and I always walk right beside my friends. We're all equals. I'm gonna change that thing, it's stupid. :D

OK, just figured out how to quote a posting, u folks can go home now. hehe

I've never seen the video! I am soooooo jealous right now I'm gonna pull my hair out! Uh... What's she wearing, exactly? hehe

All you gotta do is ask, and I'm wearin' the dress! PJ Harvey is amazing! She is THE Rock Goddess, as far as I'm concerned! I like to imagine that "Stories" is all about love being strong enought to cure the most hardened cynic. Maybe it's because it's a collection of the most passionate, the most genuine, the most earthy and hardnosed songs about love that I have ever heard in my life. Cured this cynic? I dare say! If Polly doesn't want me, I'm shaving my head and joining a convent--er, monestary...
