Parkamarka Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 (edited) There's been some great stuff posted here in the last few days. I grabbed a bunch of it this morning, and must give some love to the following: [*]65 Days of Static - Primer [*]Edan - Smile Both of these are songs I've not heard from bands I intend to see at ATP so much thanks for these. I reckon 65DoS in particular will be great live, judging from what I've heard. [*]Tom Waits - Better off Without A Wife [*]Radiohead - Life In A Glass House [*]Alkaline Trio - Jaked on Green Beers [*]Neutral Milk Hotel - Holland, 1945 [*]Smashing Pumpkins - Here is No Why Stuff I already know and love, but great to see it pimped in this thread. Nighthawks of the Diner was the album that made me a Tom Waits fan. Judging from the book I'm currently reading, it wasn't very well received when it came out due to the extended periods of Tom's drunken rantings. Strange, because that's one of my favourite things about it. Agreed that the Neutral Milk Hotel album is an absolute classic, I'd say this is the most immediately awesome song though: Â Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea [*]Captain Beefheart - Sure 'Nuff 'N Yes I Do [*]British Sea Power - Please Stand Up [*]Labi Siffre - I Got the Blues [*]MC Paul Barman - Cock Mobster [*]Jethro Tull - Song for Jeffrey [*]Jurgen Paape - So Weit Wie Noch Nie This stuff is all new to me and all really great. I especially love the Beefheart (there's also a serious hole in my collection there) and British Sea Power (that track really reminded me of something by Bernard Butler... but in a good way). Â In summary - this thread rules. Edited April 21, 2007 by Parkamarka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajpiles Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 (edited) Here is one of Buckethead's greatest songs. No vocals, the album this is off (Enter The Chicken) also has some great songs including "Funbus" and We are One" (Which has System of a Down's lead singer in it). Â Enjoy. Â Buckethead - Nottingham Lace Edited April 21, 2007 by ajpiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Edwards Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 (edited) I've always thought 'Oh comely' is the standout track on ITAOTS personally. Â Anyway song for today is my favourite song from the band that brought you the hugely popular in the blogosphere 'Maps' Â Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Y Control Edited April 21, 2007 by Rob Edwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ice Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Holland, 1945 isn't my favourite from In The Aeroplane Over The Sea, but it's the one that I found the most immediately catchy on my first listen through. When I lent the album to my friend a few years ago he listened to that song about 50 times in a week! Â I'm a little behind on listening to stuff posted here in the last few days, but I will catch up on it soon and post some comments. Â Here's a song for today: Youthmovie Soundtrack Strategies - Ores I guess that this is a relatively standard indie rock song by Youthmovies standards, but with their usual mathisms and mid-song changes of direction. It's fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexander Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Captain Beefheart is brilliant, and everyone should love him. Not sure about the Tom Waits comparrison at all though, Waits was a Jazz guy who became avant-garde later in his career. Beefheart is a blues guy who is just one of a kind in the whole universe. Nothing else comes close.  Captain Beefheart And The Magic Band - Gimmie Dat Harp Boy  I've picked this track to celebrate the fact I bought a new harmonica this week Some serious blues being blown on that there song.

Nothing else comes close.You have to at least admit that the voices are pretty similar. I haven't heard enough Beefheart - yet - to really say, but the two (great) tracks in this thread are very reminiscent of later-era Tom Waits, IMO.

Paid Members Chilly McFreeze Posted April 21, 2007 Paid Members Share Posted April 21, 2007 (edited) I'm glad you're all loving my Beefheart upload, I heartily reccomend his first album 'Safe As Milk' as a must have album.More narley blues songs coming soon Edited April 21, 2007 by Chilly McFreeze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Registration_Form Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 (edited) Will download some of the recent stuff mentioned and give it a proper listen later.I second the title track of In the Aeroplane over the Sea being the best."And one day we will die, and our ashes will fly from an aeroplane over the sea,but for now we are young let us lay in the sun and count every beautiful thing we can see"Also, it was discussed a few weeks ago but I managed to download the whole Banner Pilot album/long EP recently and it's really good. Love the Buzzocks cover at the end.After reading a positive review this morning in the Independent I checked out a couple songs from (what appears to be) the fourth album from a member of Broken Social Scene (who I've enjoyed but need to listen to more of) called Feist.myspace.com/feist . Nice voice, quite uplifting pop music. Particularly liked '1, 2, 3, 4'. The awesome Jamie Lidell supposedly guests on the album too.

Mr. Seven Posted April 21, 2007 Author Share Posted April 21, 2007 Feist is good, but she sounds way too much like Norah Jones for my liking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
