Cut Chemist rules.....the new J5 just isn't as nasty without him.

Jt · 09.09.2006, 05:16 PM

Actually, I've just got hold of that Raccoo-oo-oon record, 'Is Night People'.

...Jesus. What a beautiful mess. Pick that one up if you can.

finding nobody · 09.09.2006, 10:28 PM

Oh, I forgot about Mr. Cash's new one. I like it

atari 2600 · 09.09.2006, 10:40 PM

it's outtakes from the Rubin sessions...

House on Hill is also a collection of unreleased material and not a "new" recording. It features the fabulous drumming of Jorge Rossy who left the trio over a year ago to pursue a solo career sometime in the future.

2006 has been the weakest year for music of the naught-naughts so far.
biggest letdown of the year
(bearing in mind that I haven't heard Dylan's Modern Times yet)

Paul Simon - Surprise

a close second
Tom Petty - Highway Companion

Everyneurotic · 09.09.2006, 10:47 PM

ga!! i forgot:

thom yorke - the eraser
elf power - back to the web
beirut - gulag orkestra
om - conference of the birds
boris - pink (can't wait for vein and alter/altar!!!)
mono - you are there

i'm sure i'm missing others.

raccoo-oo-oon are one of the greatest unsung bands of the new millennium and puke all over the boobless stripes (racounters or whatever they are called). i'm yet to pick up anything new by them, though.

atari 2600 · 09.09.2006, 11:00 PM

I forgot Film School (s/t but 3rd album I think). I have also forgotten to look for it & buy it. I only have their first one, A Brilliant Career & wrote somewhat recently that they were better than SM + The Jicks. Fuck The Raconteurs; Get Behind Me Satan did make my top (I think it was) 20 (not 10) last year though. I was thinking about Elf Power for #10, but Liars won out. (it's the year of the tribal drum, I suppose). Back to the Web is more ambitious than 2004's Walking With the Beggar Boys, probably their most ambitious album they've ever done, but just not quite as good. (and Beggar Boys was even a step down in quality to me).
In random notes (of similar tones), Built to Spill almost made it on my list this year.

But please, to those reading, buy an Elf Power album! You won't be terribly disappointed, I promise!

For the last couple of years, I have been making a mixed cd of download offerings from my top ten albums of the year. I don't know if I'll be continuing that effort this year though.

Everyneurotic · 09.09.2006, 11:06 PM

i don't know man, it's the only ep i have and it sounds ace to me. plus, i don't exclude stuff, my list is like thirty albums and there's still a lot i haven't heard.

atari 2600 · 09.09.2006, 11:59 PM

Was that live performance from Rome of The Original Silence from 2005 released this year?

That would make my top 10.

drrrtyboots · 09.10.2006, 12:08 AM

when the new akron/family comes out in a few weeks i might have a winner or a huge dissappointment. but the young people albums great.

Because I'm lazy, I'll just post this: http://rateyourmusic.com/list/Leon_Zozo/2006_so_far

atsonicpark · 09.10.2006, 07:08 AM

It's been a good year for music.

As was 2004, 2002, and 2000. All the years in betwen have been pretty forgettable.

atsonicpark · 09.10.2006, 07:09 AM

Oh.. album of the year so far is probably the new giddy motors.

toxic johnny · 09.10.2006, 09:33 AM

This is my top 5 so far this year... in no order.

Why I hate Women - Pere Ubu
For Sada Jane - Magik Markers
Permanent Drool - Warmer Milks
Espers II - Espers
Diskaholics Anonymous trio - Weapons Of Ass Destruction
