asp's classic albums # 76: truman's water - fragments of a lucky break
 
You can't really go wrong with any of their albums, quite frankly. One of those bands that's TOO good -- start listening to them and you may not ever want to listen to anything else. A rare band without a single bad song. Imagine a more unhinged, more complex, more out of control, and darker Thinking Fellers, and you're on your way to understanding the genius at work here.

to quote my friend "Everything is in terms of what makes me cum and what doesn'T. I'd rather get fucked by a big pill."

atsonicpark 05.03.2010 06:28 AM

true nihilism is pretty liberating. I feel pretty untouchable - but it could be because I'm so fucked up right now

DanielCarlson 05.03.2010 11:17 AM

Sounds interesting, I'm downloading.

I've tried listening to Truman's Water a number of times and they've just never hooked me in, which is weird since they seem like the type of band I'd really enjoy.

Then again I thought about Blonde Redhead for a while and then started liking some of their music, so maybe it will be the same for Truman's Water.

yes! ultra yes. great album from a great band..id also like to add to the recommendations their self titled album and the amazing peel sessions album.

quality quality! and no mention of beefheart adam! wow!!!!

atsonicpark 05.06.2010 12:46 PM

Well, now that you mention it, they did do an awesome cover of hair pie: Bake 2, so they obviously are into beefheart, I guess their music is sorta like a harder, non-bluesy take on trout mask at times, haha.

new album is amazing. their first in 8 years! one of the best of the year... if you like this eclipse-era Polvo or strangers from the universe-era TFUL#282, it's pretty similiar. i've only listened to it once but I dig it, lots of weird guitar interplay.

also, http://www.last.fm/music/Trumans+Water = best similiar artists ever...

PAULYBEE2656 09.02.2010 07:19 AM

i cant seem to get it anywhere..this one is eluding me! cant wait to hear it!

atsonicpark 09.02.2010 10:17 AM

okay, you have it now, haha

stu666 09.02.2010 12:46 PM

i would like to hear this too....

PAULYBEE2656 09.02.2010 02:59 PM

adam..again you are legendary!

o zeta zunis is possibly the album of the year. almost flawless. trumans of old and yet distincly polished and accessable to those who would have previously thought of them as.......shite for a better word. stunning album. i wasnt expecting as good as this after their last one but this knocks spots off 80% of their back catalogue!

atsonicpark 09.02.2010 04:18 PM

agreed... it's a masterpiece. too bad no one will hear it!

pauly do you still have that link i sent you? you should send it to stu if you do, i'm kinda busy right now.

atsonicpark 09.03.2010 05:44 AM

cough

cough

supposedly, if you put that at the end of a certain site that has MEDIA and is on FIRE, you might get something cool..

just enjoy the album! there aren't too many "fucked up brilliant detuned guitar interplay wizards" out there anymore.

Jeremy 09.03.2010 06:22 AM

Thanks Adam, your thoughts on the record have me interested. Downloading that mysterious "/?4c58dnpkghkc5vi" link now.... But if it's more gay porn from you, I'm going to be pissed.

PAULYBEE2656 09.03.2010 01:43 PM

adam.. did it last night!

stu666 09.03.2010 08:27 PM

yeah cheers! got it and i love it

DanielCarlson 09.04.2010 07:08 AM

Cheers, the new album is great! Could very well end up among my favorite albums of the year, I really like it.
