Instrumental chords are magical, sullen skies…
woman voice chorus line (like “il deserto rosso” where the character of giuliana told to comfort her son, a story about an ideal place) represents a real work of an artist and a high attention to come together sounds; well, “ciel brouillé” is a beautiful song.

Alex, It appears you and I are on the same page. I got the Smile DVD on Saturday, and watched it twice over the weekend. Certain parts almost brought me to tears. I've had the CD for like a year now, but I actually think the live performance on disc 2 of the DVD is superior to the CD.
About 9 years ago I "discovered" Pet Sounds, and for awhile I was completely obsessed with Brian Wilson. Now it seems I'm entering that phase again.
^Great Bauhaus song.
Finally got my own copies of Brian Wilson's "Smile" CD and DVD. Can't stop listening and watching. I listened to the whole CD twice during a long drive today, and I was about to cry in frustration and envy a few times because some parts are just that brilliant. I also hadn't slept in 36 hours, but still...
Other than that, I've been listening to my standard "sadcore" favorites which you can probably guess by now.

I just finished the Talking Heads bio "This Must Be The Place", so I've been listening to a lot more of their stuff than usual lately.
I agree Alex. When I heard last year that Brian Wilson was going to "finish" Smile, I cringed thinking about how lame it would be. I was very wrong. It's easily the best thing he's done since 1966. Sure the lyrics can be extremely corny, but the music/harmonies are unparalled.
Saw Brian Wilson last weekend and now I've been watching the Smile DVD. Most amazing music I've heard in a loooooooong time. Actually...probably one of the most amazing things I've ever heard, period. I can't imagine anyone ever one-upping this stuff.
How else you gonna pimp in style?
We'll be at $300 a barrel soon enough, burnt out. As long as the Bush Crime Family and their buddies at Big Oil keep seeing big returns on Texas Tea and suburban sheep get their steady flow of vroom-vroom juice for the ol' Escalade it won't matter how many body bags come home...
"Man Is The Baby" and "What Can I Do?" are my favorites. Just simply beautiful.
Yeah, the opening number, "Hope there's Someone", is sublime -- "Man is the Baby" and "Spiralling" are pretty good as well. As for the rest of the album...
Antony and the Johnsons - "I'm a Bird Now"
Weird CD. Really gorgeous, but his voice...beautiful and incredibly obnoxious at the same time. I'd still recommend buying it even if only for three songs.
today, aqualung. in honor of whitey. cause he's an indie shit hater. and when he opens his mouth....he opens his mouth and i know what he's gonna say....

leaves rustling, birds chirping, bugs buzzing, water trickling... and silence.
so nice to get away from the oppressive din of the city. how did we let our urban environments get so loud and shrill?
$200/barrel oil would sure quiet things down…
It's not about it being performed terribly. It's about it sounding like five long minutes of pretentious, overly precious, noodling shit. But whatever.
There's way too much indie shit on this forum.
P.S. lately I've been listening to one album essentially on loop:
The Vagina Monologs: One Night Only! Berkely, CA 2002
It's sooooooooooooo good!
Ah, artistic tantrums from the league for squeaky perfection. Easy there Alex, easy.
^No offense, but I could barely listen to that MP3. I wanted to smash my computer speakers after a couple minutes.
Lovers - "Star Lit Sunken Ship"
Empress - "1996 - 1999"
Soul Whirling Somewhere - "Hope Was"
Mark Eitzel - "Caught in a Trap..."
Xiu Xiu - "La Foret"
Marquis de Tren and Bonny Prince Billy - "Get on Jolly" -- Oldham singing, wearily, selections from Tagore to minor key accompaniment from a member of the Dirty Three. Great stuff, really.

Still big on that Confusion Ends and This is For You, Adam!
That new Mary Timony record is one of the best of the year so far.
Just got the new son volt sampler (5 songs) and it's a nice suprise.
And I can't get enough of the new national record.
Haha, you can propose to me.
The new Aimee Mann took me a few listens to appreciate it...it grew on me. I'm seeing her play in Oakville, California in August-can't wait.
I just bought 'Ex Hex' by Mary Timony and who else here thinks she's f*ckin incredible? This cd blows me away.
Looking forward to the new Son Volt album in July and new Juliana Hatfield album in August...
lately i've been listening to:
team sleep, spoon, barzin, the first calla release (re-released), back to mine (compilation by lamb), owl (low remix), bebel gilberto remix, earlimart (still!), hood, built like alaska, the one am radio
I bought the new Aimee Mann, but i dunno... I think I'm missing something. Same problem with the new Pernice Bros... just a rehash of their previous work, with very few memorable tracks.

Hi ya DD,
You love Delays now, admit it.
I listed to all of Sun Kil Moon again last night, and as much as I think Mark is a putz personally ("I suck, I'm no good"), he put out one f-ing beautiful CD with SKM.
I also want to second the notion that Doves are incredible.
Ambulance Ltd. - LP
The Church - After everything, now this
Luna - Rendevous
Spoon - Gimme Fiction
In constant rotation.
Doves - Some Cities
The Appleseed Cast - Two Converstaions
Ryan Adams and the Cardinals - Cold Roses
Radar Bros. - The Fallen Leaf Pages
I'm married or I do it, but someone on this message board needs to propose to Hanna.
The Sun Kil Moon cd did not come out of my cd player for like 3 months...in my opinion, that was the best release of 2003 (along with the Jayhawk's 'Rainy Day Music.'
Also been listening to:
Aimee Mann-the Forgotten Arm
Sloan-A Sides Win
Gene Clark-Retrospective
Delays--because Chris made me
Nick Drake--Pink Moon
IDAHO--WWYANTM, which, by the way is like a sickness...I CANNOT stop listening while I drive...physically impossible
David Gray--White Ladder
Brian Eno--Another Day on Earth; Guided By Voices--Human Amusements at Hourly Rates; Black Rebel Motorcycle Club--B.R.M.C. and Take Them On, On Your Own; 801--Live; Man--Back into the Future
Listening to:
Delays- Faded Seaside Glamour
New Order- Waiting for the Sirens' Call
Dead Can Dance- The Serpent's Egg
Sun Kil Moon- Ghosts of the Great Highway
i recently picked up a copy of "we were young" and there are a bunch of great songs on there.
naturally it prompted me to delve back into the older stuff (time for a new record jeff!) - last night driving to three sheets to the wind. wow. what an amazing record. amazing sounding - amazing performances - amazing songs. so so good.
also listening to: stina nordenstam - the world is saved / sufjan stephens - michigan and illinois / yo la tengo - electropura / feist - let it die
In reading Alex's lists I always hear, somewhere in the back of my mind, that childish little ditty from Sesame Street:
"One of these things is not like the others, / One of these things just doesn't belong, / Can you tell which thing is not like the others / By the time I finish my song?
Did you guess which thing was not like the others? / Did you guess which thing just doesn't belong? / If you guessed this one is not like the others, / Then you're absolutely...right!"
:)
IDAHO - "Hearts Of Palm" and "Going On" from the slidingpast website. I love that song.
Red House Painters - "Rollercoaster" and "Down Colorful Hill"
Soul Whirling Somewhere - "The Great Barrier"
Gwen Stefani - "Love Angel Music Baby"
Thee Missouri - in Voodoo Rama. These guys are my labelmates on Blue Disguise - very cool noir-ish Americana with drum machines. They're from Germany and they're touring the States right now. I played with them on Wednesday and they were great.
The Stares - Spine To Sea (It's finally out!)
dk, you are right, I was purblind with lust -- the article is crap.
What I have been listening to of late:
Richard Youngs - "Sapphie"
Marissa Nadler - "The Saga of Mayflower May"
Picastro - "Metal Cares"
Jandek - "Worthless Recluse"
Hood - "Outside Closer"
The Remote Viewer - "You're Going to Love our Defeatist Attitude"
American Music Club - "United Kingdom"
I just think that if she wants to complain about incompetent music, she needs to write about the likes of Jesse McCartney (I think that's his name), Ashlee Simpson, Lindsay Lohan, etc. She is talking about pop music, after all, and she's picked two of the more competent bands in the genre to bitch aimlessly about. I don't think she gets the idea that pop music isn't prog rock, and it isn't supposed to be. You can't compare the two. And not all music is about virtuosity.
Yeah, that, and she's kind of hot. Methinks you were reading with your groin.
Alex, I should mention that there are very few paragraphs of the article with which I am, in any sense, in agreement (the concluding sentence I find particularly objectionable*). What I find of especial interest, and expressed in the above piece by a mere, curt, sentence, is the ethical implication -- our social responsibilty in giving such untoward incentive to incompetence and questionable talent.
*while her screed might bear semblence to the standard "culture warrior's" emphasis on Classicism and Apollonian virtue, her closing remark reveals the extent of her entrenchment in the "Objectivist" wing of Libertarian thought.
That woman is a moron. "Bla bla bla...they use a computer to piece together songs." So does 99.9% of bands you fucking idiot! The whole article reeks of "I'm writing a bunch of completely obvious and irrelevant shit to show you how much I think I know about music."
While one might quibble with her approach overall -- and certainly her positing of prog-rock as a sort of touchstone, if not merely rhetorical, is problematic -- this is, nevertheless, an interesting article.

I'm listening a lot to the new Sufjan Stevens. if he reads this. he'll hate me, but I'm going to buy the record anyway, because it's amazing. It's floating around on Soulseek.

I'm listening to the new "Location EP" from The Grand Opening (featuring this board's very own JR Olsson). It is sooooooooo good. Any fan of IDAHO would certainly enjoy this.
Go to http://itsatrap.com and download all of it. It's in the right top corner of the screen under the "Online Exclusive" heading.
Congrats Roger on a great EP. I hope you get distribution other than online. You deserve it. I want to buy a copy. Email me. Love the rerecording of "Get Out". Such a great song.
G.G. Allin and the Murder Junkies, the Jabbers
Coldplay are as good as Toad the Wet Sprocket (I'm serious!). Nice enough songs, pretty - but banal and obvious - melodies, good singer... but little in the way of substance or innovation. Their new single affirms what i was worried about: the band's run out of songs.
^I agree.
Uh, just because Coldplay is popular doesn't make it bad...Parachutes as an album is f*ing brilliant, and the second CD is pretty strong, too. Their songs do not sound all alike...you must be hearing something I'm not. Let's face it, they were marketed well, and they are so damn good that the masses bought it. I am convinced this would happen to Idaho if they were played on the radio, too. anyway, IMO...
Haha...well I like "Parachutes". Whatever...
my needle's a twitching
i think the best part about that new coldplay song is how INNOVATIVE it is. I mean... wow!!! It doesn't sound like ANYTHING in their existing catalogue at ALL!!! I'm sure this new record will be a TRHILLING DEPARTURE from the ONE SONG they've written OVER and OVER again on their first two records. VERY SURE!!!!! I also enjoy how the new song has absolutely NO FUCKING HOOK!! instead, it's just another mildly pleasant, vanilla chord progression with mr. paltrow's signature falsetto crooning over the top. real QUALITY STUFF. good thing it only took them like 8 YEARS to record this thing like 8 TIMES!!!
The new Coldplay song "Speed of Sound" is awesome. I just watched the video of it on Yahoo. Reminds me of "Clocks", but it's sooooo much better. I hope the new CD is better than the last one. I have a feeling it will be.
Caustic Resin -- Keep on Truckin'
on the main page there's a picture in the upper left-hand corner. Below the picture is a small jukebox that says "play Toshack Highway...", click on the play button "[>" and it should play the song.
I don't see the cover song on that site.
been listenin' to the latest sound clips on the Toshack Highway site - http://www.toshackhighway.com including a (Jim Hendrix cover)-"Gloomy Monday" by Adam Franklin from Swervedriver.
Yo La Tengo - The Sounds of the Sounds of Science. (Instrumental soundtrack - great stuff. Only available from their web site.)
bodies and minds is the name of great lakes swimmers latest. It's been released in Canada, but won't be released in the states till later this summer (on misra). i imagine you could order it from weewerk.com if you didn't want to wait.
Just discovered the Great Lake Swimmers by reading a previous post. Bought their first album because that's all I could find here. Love it! Gorgeous...
-_-" different people, different minds.
for me, i think summer at shatter creek reminds me a bit of maximilian hecker but not as that similar.. you know what i mean..
NOTHING is as embarrassing and terrible as Bright Eyes!
I love everything by Dakota Suite...Haha..
JR, I really only listen to that album, and it's three songs that I listen to repeatedly. I pretty much ignore the rest of it. But the three songs are some of my very favorite songs.
susan
when singer-songwriter ennui crosses the line from poignant to strident and embarrassing, i call it emo.
summer at shatter creek is almost as embarrassing and terrible as bright eyes.

Hey Deano, Haha! No problem. I don't have any problems with the Norwegians. We kind of speak the same language but I don't understand anything if I am talking to a person from Norway.
Alex - There's one thing I have thought about reading your playlists over the times. You always say you don't really like Dakota Suite but you always say you listen to them. Or maybe it's just that album? Is it because of Bruce Kaphan?
Oh my God, please tell me you're not serious. Summer At Shatter Creek is NOT emo. Guy singing soulfully and playing piano and guitar-- remind you of anyone in particular? Kindly clean your ears out. Thank you.

yes...magnet is quite good. saw a full page ad for magnet's "on your side" in filter magazine...turns out it's on filter's label. then i heard that jason falkner had worked with magnet, so i picked it up at my borders. great stuff...could be seen as a coldplay or travis knockoff by lazy reviewers...but i think it rises above those categories...not to be missed.
Someone recommended it and I thought he was Swedish?? Also: how about Dungen?? My heads been in the sand...
You still Grand Opening?

I found this board by accident... but a few of you guys really like The London Apartments and that's awesome!! They are great! I believe one of you also mentioned their split with the bad spellers... which is cool... because I am friends with them. That split is really good too. Anyway, that's all.
What I've been listening to consists mostly of synth pop and jazz... in no specific order.
Oh my God how could I forget...
The London Apartments - Romanticism Aside! It's weird that more people know about these guys. I havenp;t got the CD yet, but have been streming it on my computer since April 1st!!!

I saw John Mayer at
an Aware Records event in Austin about four years ago. He was crap then, and he's crap now. Really, your ears deserve better...
Ugh...nevermind. I just kinda went through the entire CD. It's okay if you take it like two songs at a time. He has a lot of potential. Just needs to lose a bunch of the chart-topping pop inclinations in a bunch of songs.
John Mayer - Heavier Things
Sorry, but I actually think it's pretty good so far. I love the first song. I wish I could write something like that.
The Zincs - Dimmer
The White Birch - Star Is Just a Sun

I listened to Aphex Twins - Film today along with Mum - Green Grass of Tunnel. I either love Mum songs or hate them.

http://www.undermybed.org/onq/nothing.zip
Lo-Fi/Psychedelic/Sadcore; a little left-field...but I can not stop listening to this short album.
nec, I've heard Failure and liked what I heard, and I picked up Future Perfect a few months ago. A combination of SY and MBV is exactly how I would describe them. Thanks for the info.
soul whirling somewhere "pyewackit"
rivulets "you've got your own"
and various idaho of course!
Yes, Failure was Ken Andrews and Greg Edwards, after Failure broke up a few years ago, Ken did a solo project called "On" which I have not heard because I can't find a copy. Perhaps I'm not looking hard enough ;-) . Ken went on to Year of the rabbit which sounds very much like Failure's last album, and Greg Edwards released an amazing album with two new band mates under the name Autolux. If you like My Bloody Valentine or Sonic Youth, you love Autolux's 2004 release Future Perfect.
P.S. Still waiting for the next Idaho release...
u tell'm avery! what's that fool doin here ne-way?
Been busy for a while; Greetings to Alex, Seth and other friends.
"SupersonicA" sounds like some crack craving gutter rat who belongs in a ny alley watching the yankees slowly choke with their all-star steroid monkeys while he scratches his crotch. Someone give him the website address for some of the hip-hop garbage. Go Red Sox!
yay. again, i am the 100th post! what do i win?
lately:
A new Skating Club album? I had no idea. Thanks Canuck.
Early Day Miners - All Harm Ends Here (Secretly Canadian) is the best thing I've heard in a long time. I've had it for months and am still not tiring of it. Beautiful guitar-based rock. Idaho fans should definitely check it out.
Also:

Cod, shut up you chronic bore.
I assure you, what I have posted is not without wit, should you have read the book.
Anyway, that is my story and I am sticking to it :)
What the fuck are you talking about?
Anyhow...yes, it is an adaptation of the book.
Which I haven't read, by the way, but I've heard very mixed reviews.
Errata: lest my reputation as a "pedantic dickwad" suffer, it occurs to me that Wurtzel was reading, instead, some trendy semiotic text. Same difference, right? Pardon me, I have not read this since publication. Can someone who has the book possibly look up the relevant passage, before I embarrass myself further? I think that I have had enough to drink tonight...or, maybe, just not enough. Oh well, I suppose that it is better to err on the side of excess -- oh my, with the subtle allusion to Blake I have just convicted MYSELF of fulsome pedanticism.
Pantsy, please post something nimbly sardonic (or about poo) to take the heat off of my indescretion.
Alex, please tell me that this film is not an adaptation of that godawful "faction" novel by Elizabeth Wurtzel under the same title. Everytime I hap upon something of The Butthole Surfers, I can not help but think of the...erm, "accidental blowjob." And Wurtzel's reading Derrida on the beach is pretty repugnant as well. :)
No, forty days.
After
Everyone should go to http://www.nathanlarson.com/film.html and listen to the song from Prozac Nation. I love this movie, and this song is amazingly beautiful. I can listen to it over and over. After I saw the movie, it was in my head for days...
And, reading Alex's choice, I think he needs some love. And a long slick blow job from a professional.

Get it from amazon.com. Their second album, "The Den", just came in the mail today. I'd strongly advise anyone to buy it and support this band. Very creative and ambitious work. I think I prefer the overall feel of the first album more, though. But you really can't compare the two. They're releasing a new album next month, as well.
I've been trying to find that P:ano album forever! Ah!

Cocteau Twins, Idaho, Slowdive, and RHP.
Also Avery, I don't know if you've ordered it yet or whatever, but you should check out www.somethingmustbreak.com. You can listen to clips from a compilation with IDAHO and a bunch of artists from this message board. It's good stuff.
Over the last couple days, I've listened to...
American Music Club - "Everclear"
Red House Painters - "Ocean Beach"
Nelly Furtado - "Folklore"
21 Grams soundtrack
The Rapture - "Echoes"
Depeche Mode mix CD
Weird mix of stuff, I know.
Avery, you can listen to my stuff at www.soundclick.com/alexniedt. There are a few good tracks. You'll just have to pick them out of the mass of mediocre/poor stuff.
RHP's rollercoaster is my favorite of all their tunes!!!! That song gives me goose bumps. The lyrics capsule a childhood summer of mine; it blew me away when I first heard it. Beautiful song.
I need to check out Alex' music.
Avery, you seem to like what Alex likes. Have you listened to his music yet?
I'm listening to rhp 'Rollercoaster' and Idaho 'Levitate'
Alex; I respect your views. Any musician who has the balls to put everything the've got into very personal works and place them out there for critique deserves respect. I'm sure Fireworks is a heartfelt work. I guess I'm alittle more into the slowcore aspects or the experimental/abstract; whatever stimulates imagination and the desire to make music. For example, through your advice to check out mp3.com.au, I discovered 4 mp3's by THIS IS FOR YOU. They are outstanding. Have you heard their stuff?
Andrew, those are the songs I keep listening to also! I can't stop. I can't wait til they come out with a full-length CD. I'm sure it'll be one of my favorite CDs.
Avery, to me songs like "Fireworks" are the definition of sadcore/slowcore. Or at least what I like about it. As gentle and beautiful as possible, completely heartfelt, slow of course, and sad, wistful, bittersweet music and lyrics. I like it with a bit of anger, too. But not always. Actually, now that I think about it, my stuff has some anger and sarcasm in there a lot of the time.
Alex; Thanks again! Lost in Records had several cool songs. I checked out Glitchface's Jubilee and thought that was decent. Fireworks was too wimpy for me. I like melancholy (spelling?) and I like deep; but too much "sad" gets whiny and then, annoying, kind of like London Apartments. If sadcore has some angry in it; it works.
Other bands I've been listening to:
His Name is Alive (before they went blues), Stars of the Lid, Athema, The Books, VAST, Ester Drang, tons more.
Lots of good stuff on Epitonic.com
Thank you so much for the Glitchface link. I've been listening to 'Fireworks' and 'Stargazers' and 'Jubilee' every moment I'm at my computer. I haven't discovered a good sadcore band in years. I can't even describe how good it feels.
Noah Nichols (Confusion Ends.) has started a record label called Lost In Records. www.lostinrecords.com If you like the CE stuff, and if you're into ambient-type stuff, there might be some other bands you like. Right now, I'm listening to the band Glitchface. They're a bit different from the other stuff on the label. Complete sadcore/slowcore band. I really like it so far. Sounds/feels very real. The singer has this "about-to-cry" shake in his voice. Reminds me of early RHP, or more harmonically complex early low. www.mp3.com.au/glitchface

Alex - I'll have to dust off my Dakota Suite cd's this week.
Actually, it's me. I work at Cinnabuns.
yep, it's me.
Dean, the singer's voice on London Apt.'s reminds me of that comedian from SNL who played the goth rock guy. Forget his name; but that's the face I see when I hear the vocals.
ALEX NIEDT; whoever you are; you've got pretty good taste in music. I'm willing to listen to whatever you have to recommend.
totally agree with you Avery. London Aparments are good music, but the singer's voice borders on the comedic.
I wish I could edit entries!! I wanted to add that I listened to Confusion Ends; THANKS FOR THE LINK! They've got a bright future. Very unique, stimulating and that MP3.au site is GREAT!! Thanks so much!
Thanks to whoever left the London Apartments link. I checked them out. The music or instrumentation on Streetlights are Soldiers was really great, but that voice destroys it. In fact, that voice gets really annoying after two listens on any song. I kept Next Year. If they used a lower voice that didn't crack or whine as much, this music would be incredible. It's a shame. Jeff Martin; you're vocals on this band's music would be one hell of a good product!!
Dakota Suite's "This River Only Brings Poison" is the one CD that has gotten me through this week. I've probably listened to the song "Sand Fools the Shoreline" nearly fifty times just in the last few days. Most gorgeous thing ever. Buy the CD for five songs.
This evening, I've finally managed to get away from that and listen to Debussy's "Ballade", Confusion Ends' "Love/Real Life", a few tracks from Ida's "Will You Find Me?", and a couple tracks from Innocence Mission's "Glow" and Sarah McLachlan's "Surfacing".
Cocteau Twins are beautiful.
rivulets' you've got your own ep. those of you who think you've got this band pegged should check it,.
Hi, Hanna. Welcome to the message board. I hope you'll make it a point to return. Take care.
Hmmm... I guess my favorite recent discovery is Felt. I got The Clean's two disc anthology on Merge a while back too. I've been doing a lot of reading lately, so more classical and jazz than usual. I've also been on a lengthy Teen Beat/Unrest Mark Robinson kick lately so I picked up a Flin Flon CD yesterday. Oh, and the Zombies, and more of the new Low.
Hey, I'm new to the board. Also new to Idaho's music. Currently listening to:

- Cardigans "Long Gone Before Daylight/Gran Turismo"
Let's get back on track here. Who's got links to some great MP3's. Some of you may not care for Avery's link, but at least he was nice enought to bring some free-legal stuff to everyone's attention. Who's got others?
I s'pose it makes me a lil bored. Too many effects maybe.
Actually, I just listen to tracks 1, 3, and the one in 3/4 time with the lyrics "and each one will be better dressed than the last" repeatedly. I usually ignore the rest of the CD, but I find those three just so beautifully dark and wonderful. I keep forgetting that I own "Debridement". I've never even listened to the whole thing, I don't think.
Confusion Ends is so great, but he took all my favorite stuff down from the site. The album "Hello, I'm Noah" is good, but some of his older stuff is the most emotional music I've ever heard, totally on SWS level, but different. I really wish you could hear it. There's this song called "Very Truly"...the first 30 seconds just melt my heart away every time I hear it. Actually, I try not to listen to it because it makes me so damn depressed. But it's good stuff.
Alex, thank you for the link to "Hello, I'm Noah." This is interesting material.
On another note, I never found the Rivulet's debut to be anywhere near as engaging as "Debridement." I do not know whether it is the songwriting so much as that cathedral ambience, the sumptuous echo that amplifies so thoroughly the numbing sense of horrowing disclosure. But I agree with something you broached on a different thread to the effect that this sort of thing, this style, can become overlaboured and redundant rather quickly --something like this observance always prickles when listening to Rivulets, and makes me consider this music provisional, regardless the degree of my captivation.
Hahaha, Alex..How are ya?
I think the "( )" CD is magical. But I've never been able to really listen to Aegisasdfjk Bryeitenakdlffasdfjlasdkjfsa, whatever it's called.
Liked Sigur Ros the first time I saw them, but by the second time the novelty had worn off, the songs all sounded the same, and with the addition of the light show and all it just seemed kind of Icelando-Disney.
i thought sigur ros were great the first time i heard agaetis byrjun. now if i listen to it it does absolutely nothing for me. the opposite is bark psychosis, who i wasn't impressed by on first listen, and yet their stuff gets better to me with each listen.
"Sleepy in a bad way." Wadda you mean?? As long as you wake up, sleep is good my friend. If music makes you "sleepy," then it's relaxing you and unless your on somthing at the time, you might afford some quality sleep.
sigur ros make me sleepy (in a bad way).
Sorry for being rude... here's the link to Sigur Ros. Check out the "Nothing Song." Really cool music!
