Man I really just wanted to know what was up with that "review" of Alpha.
What happened to your personal life that makes coming on here and just being a prick something that you even have time for?!

Since some of you are talking about ordering stuff, I thought I'd go just slightly off-topic and mention the goodies I've pre-ordered. Some of these records are already out, actually, but I did order 'em in advance, you follow.




St. Vincent - Prince Johnny 12"




St. Vincent - Digital Witness DARKSIDE Remix 12"




Jeff Tweedy - Diamond Light 10"




Anna Calvi - Strange Weather covers EP

and...

Spoon - They Want My Soul insane bundle

Oh, and also



Sharon Van Etten - Are We There bonkers bundle

Part of me really wants to like St. Vincent, but every damned time I give them a sincere go I just realize...

Just "her", actually; Annie Clark is St. Vincent, although she records and (mostly) performs with other musicians. Usually I despise when a single person adopts a band name, but Annie is my girlfriend.

While I understand that it is her vision, the does indeed invite a variety of musicians into it and therefore St. Vincent can be loosely defined as a band, one which I've always wanted to give my support to and yet sonically could just never get into it..

I feel the exact same way about Sleigh Bells...

Also this but I couldn't find a good quality image... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWDs...xO_CZM0w92KDr9

For the shit Hecker gets for his stuff being unlistenable, I really liked both of them.

haven't listened to this album since in AAAGGGGEEEEESSSS

You probably should have kept it like that.
;)

Yeah....I probably should have. The only song I really enjoyed was 'In like the rose'

everything else sounds incredibly dated.

don't know how this passed me by but it's incredible. steven warwick, richard youngs and luke fowler making tinny, warped club music that has been left to soak in bleach for centuries.

Trilogy by Emerson Lake and Palmer

What an atrocious piece of shit. Keith Emerson's solos on this album are just the epitome of bad taste

Down the Road by Stephen Stills/Manassas

I have an uncle who regularly gives me old records that he either is done with, never liked, or knows I would like better... I'm not sure which category this one fell into, but... meh?

More ocassionaly engaging but mostly just 'there' pseudo-rock from Stephen Stills *yawn*
