Ombre Vivante Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 - Just got Delispice's 6th album. - I'm still waiting to get a Wonderbird and a Humming Urban Stereo album. - Got Extended Play and Velocifero by Ladytron as well.
invisible_r Posted July 8, 2008 Report Posted July 8, 2008 good choice! I've been wondering about their most recent album but haven't had the chance to sample it yet
TheLizard Posted July 9, 2008 Report Posted July 9, 2008 The only song I've heard so far is Mistress Mabel. It's not bad, but not as good as anything on Costello Music.
Levis Posted July 9, 2008 Author Report Posted July 9, 2008 I came across a store that sold CDs for 10$. I went on a bit of a spree Heathen Chemistry - Oasis Means I'm only missing Don't Believe The Truth (and anything after)New Adventures In Hi-Fi - R.E.M. Means I'm missing up! and Green from the post-IRS years (and Accelerate, but that can wait)Modern Life Is Rubbish - Blur Means I'm missing Leisure and The Great Escape (which was also there but which I did not pick up)Moon Safari - Air Means No CD shopping for a while now

Farin Posted July 10, 2008 Report Posted July 10, 2008 good choice! I think so too definitely gets my recommendation
Levis Posted July 13, 2008 Author Report Posted July 13, 2008 Heathen Chemistry - Oasis Means I'm only missing Don't Believe The Truth (and anything after) Oh curses... I forgot - I don't have Standing On The Shoulder of Giants either!
invisible_r Posted July 13, 2008 Report Posted July 13, 2008 Oh curses... I forgot - I don't have Standing On The Shoulder of Giants either! don't bother, it's not very good
The Seeker Posted July 13, 2008 Report Posted July 13, 2008 Better than Don't Believe the Truth though... I like Where Did It All Go Wrong, Sunday Morning Call, F*ckin' In The Bushes and particularly Gas Panic! and Go Let It Out (though I much prefer the Familiar To Millions live versions).
TheLizard Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 Yesterday I pre-ordered "Stay Positive" by The Hold Steady.
TheLizard Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 Well I suggest you go get to know them. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=4690134
invisible_r Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 jeffrey lewis - it's the ones that cracked that the light shines through it's cool
blind-fitter Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 I bought that one a few months back: it is , indeed , cool.
TheLizard Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 Library run today: "The Soft Bulletin" - The Flaming Lips "Automatic For The People" - REM "(What's The Story) Morning Glory?" - Oasis "Nevermind" - Nirvana "London Calling" - The Clash
TheLizard Posted July 15, 2008 Report Posted July 15, 2008 Yeah, I figured you would know these ones.
The Seeker Posted July 18, 2008 Report Posted July 18, 2008 Shotter's Nation -- Babyshambles I like buying an album without really knowing what to expect once in a while... this one seemed like a good choice
blind-fitter Posted July 19, 2008 Report Posted July 19, 2008 I've bought a few CDs since I last checked in on this thread, but allow me to tell you about my recent run of good fortune. On Wednesday, I was in the city centre, essentially to shop for footwear (for me) and birthday presents (Mrs Fitter, a brother and a nephew). Anyway, I chanced upon one of the larger music stores in the throes of a "change of ownership stock clearance". This enabled me to pick up: Guided By Voices : "Isolation Drills" (which is excellent, incidentally) The Woodentops: "The BBC Sessions" (ditto) The Toy Dolls: "We're Mad" (2 CD anthology)(which I'm also very pleased with- a long-timer on my wish-list) Stephanie Dosen: "A Lily For the Spectre" (which I have high hopes for) Derek And Clive: "Live" (Peter Cook & Dudley Moore perform probably the funniest comedy album ever made) plus an album which I already had, but which I'm giving as a birthday present (Future Of The Left: "Curses") All this for just over £20! Today. I was out with two of my kids, visiting toy-shops. Both had bought something they were pretty satisfied with, so they indulged me in a quick pop-in to the nearby charity shop. Good day to call in, as it happened. Earlier this year the very excellent Domino record label re-issued two albums of long-deleted material by The Triffids- one of the world's most underrated bands- "Treeless Plain" (with bonus tracks) and "Beautiful Waste and other songs (mini-masterpices 1983-85)"). I had intended to pre-order these from Domino, but missed out due to cash-flow problems: but they've been high on my "must buy" list ever since. Imagine my unfettered joy to find both albums ("promotional copy: not for resale!") at the ridiculously knockdown price of £2 apiece. For those slow on the exchange-rate uptake: the two albums together cost me considerably less than a packet of 20 cigs, or probably about the same as a teenth o' grass. Yabbadabbadooo! :happybanana: :happybanana: :happybanana:
TheLizard Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 "Evil Urges" - My Morning Jacket My darling mother bought it for me.
Viaene Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 (edited) maybe I should convince my mother to such deeds Edited July 21, 2008 by Guest
