admnistramation

Their hardware will be remembered. As much as I hate the itunes store with a flaming passion, Apple never did disappoint me with their products. Then again, I don't think I'll ever be getting anything as silly as an ipad... Rest in peace, mister Jobs.

It hurts when you know that just about all of your favorite albums this year have no chance on making it to the final round. :p

Trust me, you're gonna wanna break down and listen to this piece of magic. Not Long Now is incredible.

Feist is the most beautiful. :dazzled: best female singer in the business today. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zw10KHJlx_Y]Feist - How Come You Never Go There - David Letterman 10-4-11 - YouTube[/ame] This song doesn't translate well live though. At all. :(

I forgot about that one. Sex & Violence too. I want those. :nod:

The Eastern Shore (Red Demo) - Feist :dazzled: Undertow - Stars Rollercoaster - Red House Painters Enough Thunder - James Blake On Peak Hill - Stars One I Love - Coldplay All The Wine - The National Gravity - Jamie Woon Screenager (Live) - Muse Don't Lose Yourself - Laura Veirs

They can squeeze all those references into 2:18 or whatever it is. It just looks like more than it actually is.

4/10 The Flaming Lips

Neon Indian - Era Extraña

Feist - Metals. Every single day. Forever. :D

I won't mind the lack of an EP if you have maybe like Tomorrow and Car Kids backing CB, Aiko/1000-whatevers/Rex backing HLH, something maybe Great Expectations backing Paradise, etc. If we get singles backed with some of the b-sides then I don't really need an EP. Also: my gut is seriously telling me that Shooting Star/Golden Arrow/Luminous is all UFO.

I want James Blake's new EP first. :nod:

Animal Collective is pure nonsense, intensely overrated, and they have the worst fanbase I've ever come into contact with.

Why can't they get influenced by jazz and DnB then? :(

Shrug it off.

Car Kids will be the Famous Old Painters/Ladder To The Sun of this era. :nod: Maybe they'll back CB with it. Seems to fit on that single best.

And I see that RS gave it four stars. :) I swear it should have gotten BNM from pitchfork, but with Biophilia coming out in a week they can't give it to Metals. But what really bothers me about that pitchfork review is their nit-picking for a hit single and that is wrong wrong wrong, especially with this album.

Cicadas And Gulls kind of bored me when I listened to that itunes preview but after hearing the entire thing, her voice just makes it. It's so soft and cushy, I like it. :happy: I'm starting to think that The Bad In Each Other will be the next single, I never would have seen that coming with A Commotion being such an outstander. I just hope this album doesn't get torn apart by critics, it's such a fine album and no one seems to care about it. I've seen virtually no discussion anywhere. :shrug:

You Have To Be Joking (Autopsy Of The Devil's Brain) - The Flaming Lips Help I'm Alive - Metric Terminally Chill - Neon Indian Soldier's Poem - Muse Life Effect - Stars Shiver - Coldplay Mirador (Live) - Efterklang :dazzled: Without You - Maps My Kinship - Our Broken Garden Telling Lies - Great Northern

They should just throw us a non-single studio cut to quell our needs. Some bands do that before they drop albums, they release a single or two and then trickle out a few songs when they know the leak nears.

The more I seem to listen to Strange Mercy, the more I seem to recognize the same three songs. It's a nice sound she's established on there but Cruel, Surgeon, and Neutered Fruit are the only memorable songs on it. :shrug:

They should make it up to us with a surprise debut of DLIBYH.

:nod: Favorite song? Mine's a tie between Anti-Pioneer and Caught A Long Wind. How Come You Never Go There holds a very high slot too.

Maroon 5, Katy Perry doing anything other than Teenage Dream, RHCP... ugh, Rio is really testing my patience.

Methinks MMIX has some relation to some of the audio from the ETIAW teasers.] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LU5fk8i30Lg]Trapezes - YouTube[/ame] Particularly this one: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brgUD5c50oo]ITTMUIGMROFUTRSARSDWTSAGDIRBACTAFS - YouTube[/ame]
