Good job on the AB. I thought it was a myth until now. I'll just wait until a get a true leak before listening to xiu xiu.

1/8/2008 9:35:31 PM

^haha, thanks. Yeah, I was beginning to wonder myself. It doesn't make much sense b/c I understood he was selling it at shows in Europe, so I assumed someone would've uploaded it long ago. Maybe I was wrong.

At least we have it now.

Bump this thread to show more love for Vampire Weekend.

This is the most enjoyable 35 minutes so far in this short year. I hope these fools tour in the Triangle.

1/11/2008 1:21:27 PM

Nice! You'll have to let us know how it is, mang.

1/11/2008 1:40:50 PM

^^^ Agreed. Definitely one of the better albums I've heard in a while

Oxford Comma is so fucking good.

And weird.

But that's 2007.

So meh.

1/11/2008 3:06:51 PM

Well, the full length LP comes out this month, as noted earlier... so, we can still celebrate it in '08, amirite?

1/11/2008 4:10:13 PM

i'm probably the only one who is excited about the new cat power covers album coming out this month!!

1/14/2008 6:05:25 PM

I dug her cover of Moonshiner.

1/14/2008 6:09:03 PM

cat power gets a big "meh"

love her. but i think its one of those things that has to grow on you. i had a friend that dug her and i couldn't really get into it. then one day i just sat down and listened and maybe it was right day + right mood type of thing, but i like her. saw her live though like 3 or 4 years ago. that sucked. she was so stage fright like...awful show. i wanted to go this year but....twas too $$$$$

1/14/2008 7:32:56 PM

i think this album actually came out at the end of 2007 im not sure but i just saw people talking about it now and picked it up. band called "Shangrala", album called "this is how we communicate".

maybe for fans of bloc party and minus the bear? kind of groovy up beat rock

1/14/2008 7:51:34 PM

^ Thanks for the tip. They sound pretty good. Too bad they're not playing soon, as I've been stuck in their hometown of Jacksonville, FL for the past week. Reminiscent of Mock Orange with Minus The Bear guitar stylings.

1/14/2008 8:39:01 PM

np. i had been mildy impressed in the past but i really liked the new album

1/14/2008 8:42:29 PM

I was a huge fan of Cat Power until she put on the worst fucking show of my whole entire life.

Drugs are bad, mmmkay?

1/14/2008 9:44:17 PM

^ haha that is how she was when i saw her. i couldn't even stay through the whole thing. terrible. when did you see her?

1/14/2008 9:45:31 PM

2002 or 2003, I think. She was unable to successfully finish at least half of her songs. She also played one song twice without realizing it.

1/14/2008 9:47:28 PM

at cat's cradle? that is prob the same show i went to. yea...it was awful. she played there again this past fall. i was curious to go just to see if it would rival the last show BUT i wasn't willing to pay ~ $30 to find out

1/14/2008 10:14:14 PM

aha i was flipping through the channels and saw Vampire Weekend's video premiere for "A Punk" on TRL. the hosts were basically like "WTF is this? let's play some more Paramore."

1/16/2008 4:08:58 PM

thats really really weird

1/16/2008 6:16:54 PM

2 new counting crows songs up on their myspace page...actually they're pretty good.

1/16/2008 7:54:45 PM

The full Mars Volta album is out there

1/16/2008 11:59:49 PM

This is why I hate not having an Oink account anymore

1/17/2008 12:10:56 AM

Oink was pretty great for getting things the millisecond they drop, but someone always ends up uploading it 10 minutes later anyhow.

Destroyer - Trouble in Dreams: hxxp://www.megaupload.com/?d=Q0BUD40T

1/17/2008 3:51:09 AM

you could also find just about anything that had ever been recorded as well

[Edited on January 17, 2008 at 3:45 PM. Reason : not sure what i think of this destroyer album yet. might be a little too heavy on vocals. dunno yet.]

1/17/2008 3:45:06 PM

I love the new Destroyer. Right up there with Vampire Weekend and Get Well Soon.

I'm on my second listen of The Mars Volta ...

OKOK. Let me move some of my new shit over, and I'll try to bring it to you tomorrow.

1/17/2008 11:10:37 PM

Mmmm, I must listen to this Stephen Malkmus...cause Terror Twilight is so .

1/18/2008 9:34:22 AM

I guess this could go in the concert thread, but I'm going to throw it in here for now.

The Modern Skirts from Athens, GA are playing tonight at The Pourhouse. I talked to one of the guys today and they're going on at 10 or 10:30.

This is one of the best unsigned bands around right now; they're heading up to Richmond tomorrow to finish recording their next record that they did with REM's Mike Mills on production.

Check 'em out--- if you like indie rock with a lot of Beatles, Beach Boys and Zombies influences (3 part harmonies, 2 guitars, piano, etc) then come enjoy the show.

The more I listen to it, the more I really dig the Stephen Malkmus

1/18/2008 7:39:34 PM

holy hell, now they've shut down Rapidshare!
