of course not. fushi fucking ruled!!!

if you want to listen to a really awesome haino/tatsuya collab, check out until the water grasps flame. and of course you should listen to knead and sanhedolin (in fact, i think new rap was an atempt to try and play something similar to sanhedolin and failing)

Time to go import searching then!

i was actually looking forward to hearing "new rap", but now i'm afraid to spend 16 bucks on it.

has anyone heard "animamima"? it's the album he did with the 20 piece sitar orchestra.

Haven't heard it but sounds like something I really need to get my hands on.

val-holla: the album is like pointless free jazz without porpose, direction or edge. the only song that really stands up to both men's potential is the second track which i forgot what it's called. if you can, download it first to try but i really found it incredibly and surprisingly boring.

and animamima is one of the best releases of the year, it's so masterful it's like a symphony!!...actually, i've only heard disc 1 once but those are my first impressions, totally worth everything!

drrrtyboots and everyneurotic, if you PM me your email addresses, i can either send you a link to the file or email a .zip file, if you'd like.

are you talking about animamima?

yessiree.

Animanima is indeed a nice one. Really quite drone-y and nice with some really awesome flute playing from Haino (I think). The second disc is a bit harsher than the first on which is quite restrained.

thanks for the offer but i already downloaded it (yes, i totally slept on it and i'm an idiot for it)

I love the Melvins song BORIS

I have never heard the band Boris, are they metal? metal riffs make me barf.

then why do you like the melvins? are you bullimic?

boris the band are named after boris the melvins song

I've heard that Boris is Melvins-like. Is that accurate?

I've heard Dronevil, which might not be proper introductory album, but I don't really like it at all. I'm not interested in drone.

melvins-influenced. one of their 67 000 influences.

The song Evil Wave Form on Dronevil is absolute killer.

at times, they can be melvinish. then again, sometimes they sound like easy listening.

I stopped listening to the Melvins after Lysiol came out. Just have not been too interested

I like early melvins, Gluey Porch Treatments, Ozma, Bullhead, the solo albums, King Buzzo being fanfuckingtastic,...

Ozma is one of my favorite albums. I want Houdini.
