Got this album on the strength of their two most famous singels "Clint Eastwood" and "Feel Good Inc." which are fantastic tracks. I was very surprised to discover that the rest of the album was almost nothing these.


found the exact opposite. Loved their self titled album, but after a while found i couldn't listen to clint eastwood or 19/2000 the same, due to massive overplay. sadly before i even got my legit copy of demon days, same thing was startin to happen with feel good inc. but despite that, fvckn top album. so well produced, and the collaborations on it are huge!

also NIN - with teeth.
such a welcome, head turning new edition from (a now sober) trent reznor. i expected a lot, and got a little more. Awesome to hear that he hasn't dropped any of the dark, despite a slight attitude adjustment.
cant wait to see them in august!!

me too dude!! i often think about what id do edm-wise with that song. and work out how to turn lots of notes into one note whilst still keeping the core of the melody (all-time fave intro that song has!) cant wait to have a proper fiddle with it :) it was my fave song for over 10 years.

I haven't picked up anything new recently, just listening to some old stuff:

Bjork - Greatest Hits
lovely. all my favourites on one cd :D
picked it up for $15 too!

Goldfrapp - Felt Mountain

her voice is sublime. and the version of 'let's get physical' on the special edition is the sex. she slows it righhhht downnn. very sensual. i always knew olivia's original had potential ;)


Dungen - Ta Det Lugnt
I don't understand any swedish so I've got no clue what they're singing about, but hot damn, this band is fantastic! their sound is..hmm, the first word that comes to mind is 'authentic;' like i should be playing their music via wax and not mp3. they have this really 'big' sound, but nothing superfluous. and the vocals really compliment the tracks. but all of this really means nothing unless you go hear some of their songs...:)

oh man, i just had goldfrapp on this arvo. <3 but the 2nd album, havent checked out that one....

hey ves, if you like dungen, you might like the decemberists? sorta that folky type stuff... ok, not similar sounding, but im throwing a long shot...


Billy Corgan - The Future Embrace.

pumpkin goes pop. and it works quite well, not the strongest album, but individual tracks are great. better than the zwan effort.


Patrick Wolf - Wind in the Wires.

this guy is 21, and is amazing. Sorta like what conor oberst (bright eyes) SHOULD have done with his 2 albums, rolled into one, but more strings and beautiful sounding.



and i'm now going to put on some Godspeed you! Black Emperor. :)
