65days, what's that Unwound album like? I've been meaning to check it out.

 

its absolutely great. not as rough around the edges/abrasive/noisy as their other stuff, but not necessarily their most accessible work either. overall very encompassing (its an hour and 14 minutes), very atmospheric, very listen-to-this-for-a-year-straight. you should definetly check it out so i have someone to discuss its greatness with :thumbup

Astral Weeks, Blood on the Tracks, Highway 61 Revisited, Time Out of Mind, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, Being There, On the Beach, and um. Hmm. Rain Dogs and Small Change would have to be on the list. London Calling, maybe the White Album. This is hard.

wow, i forgot that little gem even existed. wouldn't be in my top ten, but good call dude.

 

Yeah, Hum is one of the most underrated bands in modern history.. Very unique sound.. I love how they were able to create such a spacey sound with just a four piece (guitar bass and drums) and no crazy effects.. It's time for a Hum reunion. They played one show in 2005 and it was a big hit, but haven't done much since..
