When in doubt I usually just crank up The Misfits.

Glice · 10.18.2006, 06:42 AM

There's about 5 editions of the 'music from porn soundtracks' series now.

Also, there's still that wonderful Elephant orchestra record ( http://www.mulatta.org/Thaielephantorch.html ) which is actual elephants playing actual instruments.

The Shaggs come none higher recommended.

And you know what? I think you should get Arvo Part's Miserere. I don't mention him enough. He's fucking unbelievable. Listen to him.

whorefrost · 10.18.2006, 06:43 AM

listen to the Wolf Eyes/Smegma hook-up; it's great!

Isn't that a band from Japan?
I don't know them, but I'm sure I read something about that album somewhere.
Will check that one out.

I'm not impressed, but you can listen to them here.

sonicl · 10.18.2006, 07:27 AM

It makes me very happy, but it probably belongs more in the "current obsessions" thread.

MATES OF STATE.

If I ever make a conscious decision to become prison-bound, it will be for their gory murder. I haven't heard that Wolf Eyes yet though, so you may redeem yourself.

Good call on the Misfits from Krastian, but I've worn them out lately, along with the Melvins. I can't hear Prick now without twitching. Thanks to toiletbowl, glice, and sonicl for shit I've never heard of. I'm not sure what I'm looking for exactly. Have you ever felt like you've listened to EVERY SINGLE ALBUM you own beyond the point of tolerance? Which is difficult, since I own a lot of shit (I suppose you can stress the word 'shit' as well).

O, the trials of a tortured intellect. Which really means I've become a lazy fuck. Anyway, keep 'em coming, folks.

sonicl · 10.18.2006, 10:56 AM

Truncy, my recommendation is only worth listening to if you want something non-rock. If you're wanting to jump about and stuff, then don't listen to Anoice. I wouldn't want to recommend something that's not appropriate for the occasion.

Try Birchville Cat Motel - Our Love will Destroy the world

my past months' obsession

hat and beard · 10.18.2006, 12:34 PM

super nonpussy/nonindie records that completely renewed my interest in music:

cd reissues are easy to find and inexpensive. the original lps aren't that tough to locate either.

sometimes when i get in a rut such as yours i go out and buy something i never even thought to give a chance. results are mixed, but i've had many pleasant surprises. i got way into the backstreet boys that way.

Oh, I know. I said Mates of State solely to get a rise out of you. I'm a tease. Although, I have been listening to Team Boo quite frequently.

The new Wolf Eyes is far better than Burned Mind. That Yellow Swans EP I reccommended is very fucking good as well.

gmku · 10.18.2006, 12:39 PM

At least it's not anal ennui you're suffering from. I don't know how you'd cure that.

Savage Clone · 10.18.2006, 12:39 PM

The world music stuff that Nonwsuch was putting out in the 60s and 70s is almost always of extremely high caliber, and never very expensive either.
A heart second to Hat and Beard there. Those are definitely both fine albums.

Get Wagner's ring cycle. That'll take you forever to get a decent grip on, and even longer to get bored of it.

Or why not take up another hobby, like cycling, or shouting at walls?

I of course have lost it, and yearn for its magic once again (I realize that was entirely vague and unintelligible, but if anyone has any idea of what I speak of, if it is option b., please do enlighten me, I don't think it was all that obscure).

I've never been the hugest Wagner fan, so if it spins me into a further depression, my new hobby shall be an alternation between masturbating to secretly obtained vocal clips of Glice, and replacing his coffee creamer with bird feces.

*Edit: I just took notice of my overuse of "positively." Fuck you.

Glice · 10.18.2006, 05:09 PM

I reckon you had Kol nidrei by Max Bruch. That's the first Jewish ceremonial music that springs to mind. If it was Klezmer [sp?], you're fucked with a description as vague as that (I don't think there's a great deal of ceremonial klezmer, but still...). Babi Yar by Shoskokovitch is a wonderful thing. I only bought it recently (my first SACD), and it's great.

How cosmopolitan am I? Wagner and non anti-semitic music. The veritable renaissance man, that's me.
