[captainofbeef]

Thanks!

[nonfiction]

andruini said:

Alright, ladies. I'm about to write a pretty extensive list of bands you should all check out a sap. They're either indie, not widely known, or just plain cool. Let's get this started:

Brian Eno (My Life in the Bush of Ghosts)
Sunn O))) (Black One)
The Boredoms (Pop Tatari)
Boris (Pink)
Animal Collective (Feels)
Ruins (Vrresto)
Fantômas (Delirium Cordía)
Dresden Dolls (Dresden Dolls)

Sick taste! Those are my favourite of my list but I'll admit I have only heard around 50% of your list.

[Nomansvally]

check out the Norwegian band Motorpsycho. A good place to begin is their newest doubble album -
Black hole Blank Canvas. It's what they're all about, enough said!

If you mix Sonic Youth, Grateful Dead with elements of King Crimson you'll be close to Motorpsycho.

[eatawiiner]

Shit I like

Daniel Johnston - Casper the Friendly Ghost
Ben Harper - Welcome to the Cruel World
Bob Marley - Exodus
Beck - Mellow Gold
Tom Waits - Small Change
Neil Young - Harvest
Clipse - Lord Willin'
Dj Paul - Greatest Hits Vol. 16
The Beetles - The White Album (Black FUCKING Bird)
Michael Jackson - Thriller
The Notorious B.I.G - Ready to Die
Dr. Dre - The Chronic
Project Pat - Ghetty Green

[captainofbeef]

Neil, Marley, Beatles, and Waits. Very nice.

[eatawiiner]

Neil is essential listening, and whenever i'm drunk at bar time, Small Change makes its way onto my turntable.

[sacrilegend]

I'd have to say that the best Placebo album to listen to would be Once More With Feeling. Marilyn Manson's Best Of is only a good overview of his stuff, it isn't actually the best cd, try Antichrist Superstar or The Golden Age Of Grotesque.

Sorry that I haven't any contribution to your lists, though. You seem to be doing a pretty good job on your own.

[eatawiiner]

I can't see him ever getting better than '1996' of AS. I got his signature when I lived in Pompano Beach at Borders when he was there signing his book. His parents shopped at the same Albertsons that I got my first job at. Very nice people.

[criterionmaster]

I have a feeling you didn't even actually do half of these, unless you went with other people's opinions seeing as how half of the things you put as best album go against what you actually think are the band's best.

[captainofbeef]

I did most of them, and the albums that I listed are often good starting points. But I took some sections from Ultimate-guitar.com, such as some of the metal genres.

You wanna bitch about it, be my guest. Cause I don't really give a shit. You should listen to this music. Even if I didn't make some of these lists, that doesn't mean I haven't listened to almost all of the bands on them. Maybe instead of questioning who made the fucking things, you should be listening to the music on the lists.

[criterionmaster]

Christ dude, settle down. I like these lists, I was just wondering if your opinions had changed or if you just got it from somewhere else. And I do use these lists when I am thinking of bands; I thank you for putting them up.

[captainofbeef]

Ok, sorry bout that. Wasn't really mad at you, just taking out my frustrations about other things out on you. I declare peace

[ie]

Here's one I recommended to criterionmaster.

LIVE in Baghdad by the Seatbelts. When I listen to this, I am reminded of the Iron Maiden type of heavy metal. Sorry, I forgot my metal genres along with my mantra.

[captainofbeef]

No, I haven't. What albums have they released?

[captainofbeef]

Nice, I'll give 'em a look then.
