YHF and Summer Teeth are tied. Perhaps the two best American rock records of the past 20 years. I voted for Summer Teeth, just to give it some extra love. It being in 4th disturbs me.

The Microphones- The Glow, Part 2

The album is like a force of nature...I don't even know how to describe it. It's one of the best breakup albums I've heard; not in the coffee shop sense of the word "breakup" album, but in the sense of the emotional holocaust you go through, the loneliness... at the same time, I can put it on and just be swept up in it's majesty. It's so amazing, I can't even describe it. Lots of noisey elements, but used in contrast with stark acoustic guitar, silence, and pulsing low piano. It's calming, cathartic, theraputic...and just down right good.

Definitely a top 5 record of the decade imo.

I hate to be the late guy, but I'm terrible at keeping up with new releases. Finally got around to this record, and it's probably in my top 3 of this year.

Dirty old river, must you keep rolling

Flowing into the night

People so busy, makes me feel dizzy

Taxi light shines so bright

But I dont need no friends

As long as I gaze on waterloo sunset

I am in paradise

Every day I look at the world from my window

But chilly, chilly is the evening time

Waterloo sunsets fine

Terry meets julie, waterloo station

Every friday night

But I am so lazy, dont want to wander

I stay at home at night

But I dont feel afraid

As long as I gaze on waterloo sunset

I am in paradise

Every day I look at the world from my window

But chilly, chilly is the evening time

Waterloo sunsets fine

Millions of people swarming like flies round waterloo underground

But terry and julie cross over the river

Where they feel safe and sound

And the dont need no friends

As long as they gaze on waterloo sunset

They are in paradise

Waterloo sunsets fine

you're welcome

um..thanks.

um

that only answers three out of six...

Does anyone have the track breakdown for the vinyl wilco releases (as in what songs end side a, begin side B etc)? I'm just curious, because I know Jeff is a vinyl fan, so I'd be interested to see where he put the cut off for each side of vinyl for Wilco's records.

I don't really care about the White Stripes, so I don't want to read back through the posts here, but can someone tell me if Hitler has been mentioned yet, and if so, how many posts it took to get around to that? Thanks.

Hitler.

46.

SBS is fun...

and I'm from FL.

But I don't think anything warrants a note of congradulations.

You aren't Elvis Presley sending the Beatles a message on the Ed Sullivan show.

Hey Floyd, what does Jeff's ass taste like? Good?

Things Jack White needs to stop doing:

Whining about shit like this.

Punching people.

claiming the Stripes is an art project (I'm sorry...no one should go around calling their band an art project.)

Things Jack needs to do:

Come to my house with a 12 pack of beer and jam with me.

Van Morrison...Van Morrison...and more Van Morrison.

I don't have any kids, but just exactly what the heck is wrong with being a mom or dad, anyway?

It means you've got naked with a member of the opposite sex ::Shakes bible::

Btw...I waited on it...and yup...still attracted to her.

in the mustard

and custard.

I'm flustered.

...anything else?

I just don't get the wankery over the White Stripes. They are ok but that's all I ever though of them.

Agreed... it's one of those hype things that will go away eventually.

The material doesn't warrant the hype. There's less return on the hype than like any other artist this generation, save maybe the Libertines or something like that. Only White Blood Cells has ever come close to living upto the medias promises for me.

And where's these great melodies Jack supposedly writes? I can think of like at least 20 melodicists from the past ten years who far exceed him.

You know, I was hoping they'd finally live upto their hype.

Then I heard the single, and realized it wasn't happening

if you want to ignore Magical Mystery Tour, which was a compilation, and Yellow Submarine which was a soundtrack.

Rubber Soul

Revolver

Sgt. Pepper

White Album

Abbey Road

nothing touches that for me.

Jeff Buckley was one of my favorite artists in high school.

It's a shame he never formally followed up Grace. My Sweetheart the Drunk is kind of a mixed bag.

Calm down.

yeah...

Take care of yourself and get plenty of rest.

Warsaw is still the coolest city name ever. It sounds like a comic book.

"Comment" or "I Shall Be Released" if you count covers.

I would love to see the next record be like Rust Never Sleeps.

All new tracks, recorded live.

A double album, with some of the material coming from band performances, and some from solo.

Rank the albums Chronologically, then we'll talk.

"Impossible Germany" gets stuck in my head sometimes. I love the sort of Steely Dan meets Television feel to it.
