Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: sonicyouth on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:18:01 because it's my birthday, and my kindly parents, friends and family have given me some money. I've got a bit of a shopping list so far, but I want some recommendations :D
So far, I have: Roots Manuva - Awfully Deep (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0006VXG86/ref=ord_cart_shr/202-6511687-1903823?%5Fencoding=UTF8&m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE) Rough Trade Shops - Indiepop Vol. 1 (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0002SF76M/qid=1110467587/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl/202-6511687-1903823) The Wedding Present - George Best (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000020R/qid=1110467645/sr=8-2/ref=pd_ka_1/202-6511687-1903823) I've been listening to Braintax a lot lately, so wouldn't mind checking out some more stuff on the Lowlife label. I might get Jehst - Falling Down or Skinnyman - Council Estate of Mind but I'm not sure, they any good? Any other recommendations are welcome pleasethanks. (by the way, I'm going to be on Radio 6music next week) Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: janaage on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:20:20 Bring 'em in - Mando Diao. Excellent debut album, every song is superb. Trust me.
Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: sonicyouth on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:22:56 What sort of music is it? Recommend me a tune and I shall try and sample it :d
Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:29:35 Council estate of mind is superb. The news mars volta album is incredible also. Francis the Mute almost as good as At the Drive-in.
Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: sonicyouth on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:32:49 Didn't really like Deloused, and as far as I understand the new album is even more prog and that's not my thing (despite my nerdiness). I like the track Skinnyman features on with Braintax, so if I can find it I think I'll buy that. I've got Return of the Drifter and it's sort of passed me by, really...
what other Phi-Life albums are worth buying? Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: janaage on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:33:29 I suppose they'd come under the rock genre, Sheepdog definately is rock, but then tunes like Mr Moon are much more mellow. They recently featured in a sony advert with "Motown Blood" which was a funky little number. I'm not just saying it but this album "Bring 'em in" is without doubt my favourite of the 21st century so far. Hurricane Bar, their follow up album is just as good but I thik Bring 'em in is a perfect introduction to the best Swedish band for years.
Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:33:48 The chosen few Phi-Life Cypher with Taskforce.
Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: janaage on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:34:41 Sheepdog, Mr Moon and To China with love are all excellent tracks to sample the Diao sound. Hope you like it.
Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: walrus on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:38:47 3 Doors Down - Seventeen Days
You'll love it :) Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: oxford_fan on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:49:26 Quote from: "Ben Wah Balls" The chosen few Phi-Life Cypher with Taskforce. great cd, but it's only an ep so about 6 tracks.life's solo effort is alright but nowt special, imo. mftc3 is essential for a taskforce fan if you don't have it already. i'd definitely recommend aim if you like funky hip-hop, a bit like j5 but without the lyrics (replaced by samples of lyrics): http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/search-handle-url/index=music&field-keywords=aim/ref=xs_ap_l_xgl/026-3903958-6878820 Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: Piemonte on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:51:19 I cant think of anything to recommend that you probablly dont own already SY
Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: sonicyouth on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:55:34 I'm liking the samples of cold water music. Most of them anyway. Cheers OF.
Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: Piemonte on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 15:56:42 How are you going to pay for them SY?
Have you found yourself some employment? Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: McLovin on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 16:00:23 Go for a bit of Willy Mason.
Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: Man of Steel on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 16:14:40 I expect you would like these albums. Go to hmv and you can have a little listen.
Herbaliser - Very mercenary Mark B & Blade - Unknown Both came out around 2000 but are quality hiphop albums.

Have you found yourself some employment? it's me birthday tomorrow, i didn't want anything in particular so my parents are giving me some money, a friend gave me a £25 hmv gift card as well which was nice of her :> Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: McLovin on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 16:19:17 Very generous.

Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: yeo on Thursday, March 10, 2005, 21:29:50 6. The Pooh Sticks - I Know Someone Who Knows Someone Who Knows Alan Mcgee Quite Well

Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: janaage on Friday, March 11, 2005, 11:28:07 They're pretty shit hot mate aren't they!! I've been listening to that album for a year now. Their new album is just as good "cut the rope" "Added family", "next to be lowered" and "Annie's Angle" all cracking tunes too. Defo my favourite band of the moment.

Daft Punk at their best which is very very good. Robot Rock is one of the tunes of the year.

Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: sonicyouth on Saturday, March 12, 2005, 15:17:25 100 broken windows was their second full length album, their last was their third - the remote part.
my favourite idlewild release is their debut EP captain. ROCK OUT! Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Saturday, March 12, 2005, 15:19:41 Hope is important is very good also but 100 broken windows is the best.

I've been listening to that album for a year now. Their new album is just as good "cut the rope" "Added family", "next to be lowered" and "Annie's Angle" all cracking tunes too. Defo my favourite band of the moment. 'The Band', 'Mr Moon' and 'Sheepdog' are fucking awesome. I reckon it would have been the best album SY had bought had he listened to your advice. I'll be investing shortly. Title: I am going CD shopping tomorrow Post by: sonicyouth on Saturday, March 12, 2005, 21:55:47 In all honesty, I downloaded a couple of tunes and they passed me by entirely. They weren't bad or anything, if I heard it on the radio I'd nod my head along to it but it's just not really anything that demanded my attention.
