Ohgr Undeveloped. Oh ya. Its amazing. I think its the best of both worlds in that its kinda poppy like the first two albums, but has some oddities like DIMD (no Bill Moseley thought :() BUT its really good.

recent aquisitions:

The Strokes -- Angles  <vinyl>  (really loving this album.  so happy to hear them together again)
NIN -- The Slip  <vinyl>  ($7.99 new on amazon for this package on 180gram vinyl...  cant beat it!)
Pixies -- Surfer Rosa  <vinyl>   (having listened to this album 5 million times over the past 2 decades, I figured I might as well finally pick it up on wax)

edit: Amazon has become really vinyl friendly over the past year.  There are some fantastic deals to be had on there, especially for new releases.

Foo Fighters: Wasting Light

Not a fan of the Foos normally, but I like this album. Pitchfork don't like it as much as their other stuff, which continues my record of disagreeing with every review I've ever read there.

Also the latest Radiohead, some Buddy Guy and the first half of Joni Mitchell: Mingus (can't give an opinion yet) before my batteries died.

I've heard the new Foo single - whatever it's called - and it was okay.  One By One is still my favorite release.

While I'm not as omg about the new ohgr as Aaron it's pretty good.. Also happy that there was a legitimate place to buy a digital copy that doesn't involve apple :)
Oh hi

Aaron

For Shame Luna. FOR SHAME! I still think its amazing.

I'm totally with Aaron on this one.  I think it's the best album he's put out under the ohgr moniker to date.
"To be happy, be virtuous. There are only two reasons to ever do anything: to be happy, and to help other people be happy. All virtue lies in the second half of that, in working for others, in protecting the weak from the strong... This is everything important I think I know about being a man."

I didn't say I didn't like it, just not omg about it after one entire listen :P
Oh hi

Aaron

Well then, I'm pretty sure there is something wrong here Luna. I'm also pretty sure it you. DUN DUN DUN!  :P  But naw, its cool. Even TPD isn't that hot for it. And we know how he feels about Puppy and co.


I also got the new Jesu album today. I haven't listened to it yet thought. SOONish.

And I got Neurosis-Enemy of the Sun. (I got it a long time ago with torrent dollars) I love the the album. I really think its one of my favorite by them...

Aaron, I never knew you were into Neurosis. Love them. Incredible live band, too.

My favourite is probably the last one they released, Given To The Rising. It's been a while now, that was 2007. We're almost in soon territory.

Ya, I played through them all once. And Enemy of the Sun really stuck with me. I really need to go and listen to the rest of their albums...

My Dead Man's Bones record finally arrived!! I've waited so long and I'm intending to enjoy the hell out of it.
I actually already know all of the songs but having the whole record in my hand is kind of awesome in its own way.

I felt the same way when Year Zero finally showed up on my doorstep.  There's just something more gratifying about having the physical copy of the album.  I'm going to have to restrain myself from going on an Abney Park binge when I get paid for working with the Academic Decathlon this year, but I'm probably going to buy the new album with my first paycheck from subbing because I don't even have THAT electronically yet >.<
