The Arcade Fire - Neon Bible

Ocean Of Noise is on right now and I think this is the first thing that has really caught me off this album (of the songs I hadn't heard before). Need many more listens to compare this to their first but it's starting to click.

Calla - Strength In Numbers

skip the middle one

To momentarily hijack the thread, how are Tapes 'n Tapes live? I guess I like them least of the three.

Who did the Mercy Lounge (Nashville) sell their soul to?

April 14 - TV on the Radio

April 16 - Andrew Bird

April 17 - Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

April 18 - Tapes 'n Tapes

Unfortunately, I am out of town for TVotR but I already have tickets for CYH. Three great bands on three consecutive school nights in a row=dilemma.

I wonder what the typical reaction to this type of post is. I gather that the OP has posted this same message on lots of boards. Do other places respond the way VC does? I ask because it seems very unlikely to me that someone could honestly expect this type of advertising to actually generate positive feedback or build a fan base. Maybe not much forethought goes into it but it just seems like a bad idea.

Supergrass - The Best Of 94-04

Corinne Bailey Rae - S/T

Impressed with her at the Grammys with John Legend (who's great) so I thought I'd check this out.

The Sonics - Here Are The Sonics

Led Zeppelin - Coda

I too often forget why this was my favorite band for so long.

Lambchop - Nixon

The Autumn Defense - S/T

The Exploding Hearts - Guitar Romantic

I love this album.

Nas - Illmatic

Alison Krauss & Union Station - Two Highways

Nico - Chelsea Girl

"I'll Keep it With Mine" is one of my favorite covers ever.

Wade Phillips? That's the best Jerry Jones could come up with?

Granted, he's presided over a talented defense with the Chargers, but he's already been chewed up and spat out by the NFL head-coaching grinder a few times already.

 

Not that I care, mind you. I hate the Cowboys -- always have, always will.

Year Team Record Postseason

1993 DEN 9-7 0-1

1994 DEN 7-9 None

1998 BUF 10-6 0-1

1999 BUF 11-5 0-1

2000 BUF 8-8 None

I'm not claiming these are HOF numbers, but I think "chewed up and spat out" is inaccurate. I love the Cowboys though so there's that.

Doug Martsch - S/T

I love BtS but I've only just gotten around to this. Very different and not all that good. (Different is fine but this is underwhelming so far.)

Juliana Hatfield - Hey Babe

Sleater-Kinney - The Woods

Peter Laughner - Take the Guitar Player for a Ride

Bob Dylan & The Band - The Basement Tapes

Bruce Springsteen - Tracks [Disc 3]

This ESPN story on Prince that is pretty interesting:

No longer a citizen of Funkytown

Great voice. Like a masculine Nina Simone, if that makes any sense. Probably not.

I first heard about him through Beth Orton but I hadn't gotten around to checking out a full album until now. It's quite good.

Terry Callier - Occasional Rain
