i saw a show with lou and zorn in nyc last december. it was pretty great. lou is dressing too young though! haha.

Man, I bet that was wild. Laurie's the most active on the second track, Stone Two, and it's really, really, I think, great.

albums I heard that sucked:
New Xiu Xiu
Crystal Castles
Free Kitten
Wire - Object 47
new Mogwai
No Age
The Breeders - Mountain Battles

And that's it I think.

i never picked up that prurient, any good?

I'm not a huge fan of his anyway but I thought it was pretty decent, one of the better ones I've heard by him.

you don't like prurient? i think hes one of the best going, sick live shows.

I didn't say I didn't like him. I just am not a huge fan.

I saw prurient. It was very close to being the most boring noise shows I've ever seen. And then I remembered that nearly every noise show I've seen has been the most boring show I've seen.

Anyway. I came here to mention that that Extra Life record is the first one I've picked up off this board for ages that I actually enjoyed, rather than quite liked or hated (that USSR record). This is excepting a few things from the rarities/ world threads, which have contained some wonderful things.

Glad ya like. I think it's amazing!

His vocals come very close to being shit mind you. Very, very close.

I didn't know anyone could actually like HLLLYH, I thought this album was really TERRIBLE. I was actually embarassed when I heard it. I don't know, I think it's really really bad - and I love Terrorbird!

It's brilliant. Their best album by far. Really original, catchy, energetic, elegant songwriting. They've really come into their own.

anybody have a DL link to the hospitals album?
much obliged?

Uh. Elegant songwriting? I found it coarse. Really. Some synths reminded me of this terrible french techno style, "tecktonik". I really can't get it

I'd like one also...

HOlY FUCKING SHIT

this Extra Life album is FUCKING AMAZING!

HOLY SHIT WOW

yes.

I've spent the last 10 minutes looking for a link to hairdryer peace for you guys with no such luck. I'd just upload it myself but it's on my other computer (at my grandpa's) which I won't be at for a few days.

thanks! i heard their songs on myspace and really liked em.
i started litening to the extra life album and so far its not my cup of tea

there is a torrent file for 'hairdryer peace' on the pirate bay i believe
