What will I do if oink is gone for good?!?!

I'm sure we all know and love Low!

I like Neil Peart's acting on Trailer Park Boys.

At Least That's What You Said, Another Man's Done Gone, and How To Fight Loneliness, all come to mind.

Good call!

i dont think 'depressing' really describes any of these songs (except maybe the Lonely 1) . Reservation, On and On and On and In a Future Age all have rreally hopefull messages in my opinion

Maybe lyrically but if you listen to the atmosphere (or vibe, feeling, whatever you want to call it) of the song, they're pretty sad songs.

8. Halcyon??!?!?!?!?!?

Reservations for sure.

I like Halloween Head, I think the rhythm guitars sound fucking massive and ballsy. The melody is catchy. The lyrics aren't anything off Blonde on Blonde but they're not bad, which is alright cause the song isn't really about the lyrics. And Ryan's vocal performance is really good. Especially when he yells out "what the fucks with me God??" near the end.

Depends on the incarnation. I think this version of Wilco does a lot of AGIB songs better live then the old version of Wilco did on the record. Spiders and The Late Greats are prime examples.

How bout that homeless guy on Granville Street who told me his guitar case was the most expensive guitar case in the entire city? Surely that's more of a Wonder then a canoe.

EDIT: Or Luongo.

EDIT 2: Actually, how about all the red pine trees, that the federal government doesn't seem to care about, in the interior of BC (and Alberta now). Surely an entire province with red trees is a Wonder.

What?

On third listen there's parts of this record I don't like (as with every Stripes album) but the majority of it is really good. I never got why everyone hated Get Behind Me Satan, it's still probably my favorite by them.

A Martyr For My Love For You is my favorite upon first listen.

Ah! This leaked. Finally! This will hold me over till the new Ryan Adams leaks which will hold me till the new Iron & Wine leaks.

Also Frank Black & The Catholics - Show Me Your Tears, is a really fucking awesome country record.

Ox!

The Band? lol everyone's heard of them.

I was being sarcastic!

Indeed it has, young Analogman, indeed it has.

The Band

You guys want to see my impression of Analogman???

Okay..! Here goes!!

That was as fun as it looks.

John name drops Paul in Glass Onion.

ps that is true, but if you were to take all the bands that have took something from the beatles or were influenced by them there wouldn't be a whole lot of bands left...

Yes, I am not denying that, but Elliott Smith was very influenced by The Beatles, especially in the chords he played. I'm not saying that any particular Elliott Smith songs sound like any particular Beatle songs, all I'm saying is that, if you're going to say the chords in Please Be Patient With Me are Elliott Smithesque then you have to acknowledge that the chords Elliott Smith played are very Beatleesque.

Do you play many Elliott Smith song son guitar? They aren't the same things, trust me.

I have no clue what you just said.

If That's Alright

Very Elliott Smith style chords = very Beatle style chords.
