[nobody]

Yes, purchased. List it and write a few thoughts.

CD - 2002
OK GO - OK GO

Was walking around Best Buy the other day and was bored. Ended up on the CD aisle and noticed OK GO. I remembered that song with the treadmills which I vaguely remembered liking. Then I put the CD in and that song wasn't on there (turns out the song kind of sucks anyway). Most of the songs are pretty generic and lame. All in all I'd say it was a pretty terrible purchase.

[shane-c]

^ I have never heard that song, but everybody talks about the treadmill music video... I should youtube it or something.

I think it was Brother Ali - The Undisputed Truth

Pretty good, but I don't listen to it very often.

[alexgeek]

DQN electronics volume 9! Awesome album,

[shane-c]

Talib Kweli - Eardrum

Some of it's a little more "mainstream" sounding than I like, but Talib is always damn good.

[RabBell]

Bought some CD's recently I was disappointed with, last CD I downloaded that I thought was a superb CD was New Orders Get Ready

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Get-Ready-New-Order/dp/B00005MOSX/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1196266855&sr=1-16

If you're not into the kind of music New Order does give it a listen (even try listening to the samples on Amazon above).

Cross between pop, rock, funk, synth (and I usually hate synth music)...best album I heard in a while, honest.

[Samurai]

last cd I actually got off my arse and went to a music shop to buy?

that would have to be Machine Head's "through the ashes of empires"

everything else I download (itunes or ...other).

[fester8542]

Errrr....
I bought an Mary J Bliege R+B album for my girlfriend.

It was more embarrassing than purchasing tampons from a hot cashier.

[love police]

umm Sigur Ros' latest one, the live one, and the DVD that they released too.

Before that:

Band of Horses new one
Prince - Ultimate [best of]
Grinderman - Grinderman
Nick Cave and the bad seeds: Noctorama

oh and Smashing PUmpkins - Zeitgeist (new cd/dvd version)

there maybe be a couple others in there, but my music is everywhere... lol

[graylensman]

Psychoderelict by Pete Townshend. The constantly-evolving concept of Lifehouse weaves through a story about a reclusive rock artist and the relationship between art, stardom, and the marketplace.

[lostinbeta]

Does an EP count? I bought Clarks Ep called 'Throttle Promoter' the other day. As far as actual album I had purchased "Being Ridden" and "Maryland Mansions" by Cex (Ryan Kidwell) and Bogdan Raczynski's album 'alright!' all in the same day, not sure which order so I don't know which was last.

[paddy.]

Blood and Wires by Jackalfeud (http://www.myspace.com/jackalfeud)

http://a79.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/5/l_bbe4267d3a7eb40ae0251b87e1a1b5e6.jpg

I bought this a few weeks ago. These guys are a great local band that I am always talking about. This is their most recent EP and it is really excellent. If you're into hard rock/melodic metal you should definitely check out Jackalfeud.

You know you want to. :mu:

[thats all folks]

Paddy,

I was checking out those guys on I-Tunes but they had limited tracks I think only one song, sounds pretty go!

Cheers

You can buy the EP direct from them via their MySpace page. They also have a bunch of tracks up on it.

Probably In Rainbows by Radiohead? I dunno if it counts because i only bought the download, but still..

It's well good, i highly recommend it, best since Kid A =)

You actually paid them for it? I thought they put it free so you could see how bad it was and just delete it. Paying nothing for it was my best move ever. :lol:

Really? I think that's a great album. OK Go are fantastic. Their second album, Oh No, is better still (and has the treadmill song on it).

[Digitalosophy]

Serj Tankian - Elect the dead

Awesome album

I picked that one up too and I am severely underwhelmed.

[paddy.]

Well obviously you have no taste.

[lostinbeta]

Well obviously you have no taste.


So I guess 'Oh No' has a good taste to it. Hmm, I'll have to check it out, I don't recall seeing 'flavored' on the packaging :sure:

[nobody]

I am delicious.

[shane-c]

And high in folic acid - which is what attracts pregnant women to you.

Are you from Boise? I was just there a couple weeks ago... I went to see Dane Cook with some friends. I don't really like him, but I went and drank and laughed so it was fun. I drank some local beer called Buttface Beer or something... it was good.

[paddy.]

Mmm, folic acid. :drool:

:ninja:

Yes sir, I am. I almost went to the Dane Cook thing, but then I remembered he's a douche and 50 bucks is too much to hear the same jokes I've been hearing for five years.

[shane-c]

^probably a good choice. I, at least, had never heard any of the jokes, so that was good... But amen on the douchery. Alcohol was definitely a necessity.

[danulf]

bought
Björn Skiffs - i2i and
Nightwish - Dark Passion Play

they're both gifts though

Nightwish ftl :(

[λ]

You actually paid them for it? I thought they put it free so you could see how bad it was and just delete it. Paying nothing for it was my best move ever. :lol:

I can see why it wouldn't be for everyone ;) Radiohead have come a long way since they were just another generic rock band..

[love police]

Lupe Fiasco - The Cool (very cool)
Explosions In The Sky - How Strange, Innocence (taking a bit in getting into, but i will)

[Pasquale]

Just bought the Deep Purple best of double disc edition for dad (xmas) :P

[Esherido]

Bought Melody A.M. by Röyksopp for myself a while ago as a Christmas present. I just started playing it yesterday and absolutely love it.

[Mik3]

Lupe Fiasco - The Cool

I LOVE Lupe Fiasco. But The Cool is truly not that great. The lyrics are crazy though...

But since his first CD was incredibly underrated, he was unable to get any of the top producers to work on The Cool.

His first CD was probably one of the best Hip Hop CDs to ever come out: Lupe Fiasco - Food and Liquor

Great backpack rap. But The Cool has the most disappointing beats.

I'm fearless. Now hear this, I'm earless. And I'm peerless. That means I'm eyeless. Which means I'm tearless. Which means my iris resides where my ears is. Which means I'm blinded. But I'mma find it, I can feel its nearness. But I'mma veer so I don't come near. Like a chicken or a deer. But I remember I'm not a listener or a seer so my windshield smear. Here, you steer, I really shouldn't be behind this, clearly cause my blindness. The windshield is minstrel, the whole grill is roadkill, so trill and so sincere. Yeah, I'm both them there

[graylensman]

got a Best Buy gift card for xmas, so....

Caravane, Silversun Pickups
LIfehouse Elements, Pete Townshend
Sound in Silver, LCD Soundsystem
Arcade Fire EP, The Arcade Fire

[paddy.]

I've just splurged out and spent £44 ($85) on 6 CDs of electronic music.

[InfestedDemon]

[garyzero]

[PsychE]

Just bought Josh Groban's album- my mom loves it :pleased:

hmmm i agree slightly. and yes F&L was amazing. There are probably 6-7 SOLID tracks on The Cool, and the thing is, there're ALL bunched together. Like from Superstar onwards are all the solid track on the album. I LOVE the beats from most of these tracks too. And yeah, the lyrics are dope on the album!!

I read that Snoop is looking towards legends of rock for inspiration on his new album as his "posse" don't inspire him that much anymore. Will be interesting to see what happens with that.


HMMMM last CD i bought... before the year ended, i got THe Hives new one, MAN this is an awesome end of year album to get, I can't exactly remember when it came out, but it was a good solid release for the end of the year. I think i got it about a month or so after it had been released. def in my top 10 for the year.

ummm what else... The Cool by Lupe, but talked about that up there ^^

OHH! i got 2 Explosions In The Sky albums, they're pretty good. They're an instrumental band, i think they supported The Smashing Pumpkins on a few shows on their US tour. But yeah, a nice instrumental band to relax too.

thats it for now, i haven't really bought that much in the last quarter of the year... whats coming up? Hmmm the new Mars Volta album is due out this month so i'll be getting that. Any reconmendations of new releases?

[lostinbeta]

Just bought '10 Tons Heavy', it's a compilation of various artists that release dub and grime under the Planet Mu label. Chris Clark has a new album coming out later this month I'm eagerly anticipating so I'll probably post again when I get that...lol.

[directory_guy]

One of Ja Rule's album. Can't remember the name now.

[mattrock23]

The Heavenly States - Self-Titled

I saw them live a few weeks ago. They are pretty good. They have an electric violin on some songs, something my sister enjoys, so I bought it for her birthday. I ripped it before sending it of course.

[Awesome-O 4000]

Last one was Between the Buried and Me - Colors.

[McGuffin]

Josh Ritter - Hello Starling

[TheCanadian]

Fleetwood Mac - Fleetwood Mac

That's the original blues rock band from the late 60's, not the later pop one with the girls.

[Charleh]

Purchased? What does that mean?

[CreationsCentre]

Panic! At The Disco - Pretty Odd.

Awesome album! :love:

[StigC]

greatness!!!

jam packed 80min worth of good hip-hop/alternative jamz. a fair amount of sampling, but it's kinda cool to hear riffs from other songs mixed in to form a new song.

[jaymiehu]

[zennith]

Hello!

[DanontheMoon]

Just found a used copy of Primus - "Sailing the Seas of Cheese" the other day for $3. Nabbed it. The original owner probably ditched it because of how badly Primus sucks. ;)

One of the greatest songs ever - 'Here Come the Bastards'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qx8W_4gd5aI

[TheCanadian]

The Road Less Traveled - George Strait

[r3h0ld3r]

All That Remains - The Fall of Ideals

I had seen this band on tour with InFlames a few months back and I had heard good things about them, but the soundboard was going crazy and the mix was awful! You couldn't even hear the vocals at all.

I have no complaints about the album though. If you like metalcore you should really check it out. I'm especially impressed with the drumming on the album.

[ChrisTurn]

Holograf - Primavara incepe cu tine ... great love songs and rock...
Spring begins with you

[senocular]

https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51UBsCngB%2BL._SL110_.jpg Hurt - Goodbye to the Machine (http://www.amazon.com/Goodbye-Machine-Hurt/dp/B001RX8PWY/)

What can I say, I'm a fan.

[Helene29]

The last album I purchased was Invincible by Michael Jackson and that was I think 2001.

I just buy from iTunes store now, but I used to collect albums of my favorite artists. If I'll get the chance to save extra bucks, I'll definitely continue to buy albums.

[mrE]

Zao - Awake?

[mrE]

All That Remains - The Fall of Ideals

love that band and that album.

The Greatest Hits by Judas Priest
The Deftones

[kirupa]

The Essential Bob Dylan
Creedence Clearwater Revival, Chronicle, Vol. 1: The 20 Greatest Hits

:)

[morpheystephen]

Hello all

First of all I would like to say that I am a big fan of Akon. I just love his songs. I have purchased "freedom" album!

Freedom is pure melodrama about love and love lost, delivered in a hooting style over synth-swamped beats that are closer to early Peter Gabriel than to 2008 hip-hop. Some songs tend to drag on too long, with Akon crooning his chorus catchphrases — "I was wrong for falling in love," "I just want to keep you longer" — dozens (hundreds?) of times. He's pop's new King of Pain.

100% Dynamite.

A collection with Ska, Soul, Rocksteady and Funk. Awesome album!

edit: Kinda cheesy album name though.

[TheCanadian]

Last full album was the curious george soundtrack by jack johnson.

[h88]

The Essential Bob Dylan
Creedence Clearwater Revival, Chronicle, Vol. 1: The 20 Greatest Hits

:)

Haha K didn't realize you were into that stuff (or are you?). I love CCR, and Dylan is great.

For me it was probably Weeds, Vol 4.

[kirupa]

Haha K didn't realize you were into that stuff (or are you?). I love CCR, and Dylan is great.
I am definitely into the classics, but I like Dylan's more recent works more :)

My latest additions:

Franz Ferdinand - Tonight
Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand
Franz Ferdinand - You Could Have it So Much Better

The Killers - Hot Fuss
The Killers - Day & Age

Chris Cornell - Carry On

Wait, crap.. no.. it was Maylene and the Sons of Disaster "III" (http://www.myspace.com/mayleneandthesonsofdisaster)

[TheCanadian]

Had to beef this thread up a little.. lolTaylor Swift is the cat's ***.

[lorren.biffin]

Totally. :P

[TheCanadian]

Cat's *** in a good way, in case that wasn't clear.

[frizzle fry]

Gojira- The way of all flesh

best album i have listened to in a long time. and i listen to alot of music.

[lorren.biffin]

Cat's *** in a good way, in case that wasn't clear.

It was clear.. :)

My music library is as varied as anybody's.. Goes all the way from (stuff like) Fear Factory / Chimaira / Coal Chamber / Arch Enemy / Godsmack / Mudvayne to 50 Cent / Andre Nickatina / DMX / Cypress Hill / Gnarles Barkley / Ghostface Killah to Colbie Caillat / Duffy / John Mayer / Alanis Morissette / Coldplay to The Beatles / Tom Petty / Elvis Costello / CCR / The Eagles / Jimmy Hendrix.

I don't believe in 'musical taste'. You could be listening to Hilary Duff and N'sync and my opinion would remain the same: To each his own.

[TheCanadian]

Good, then I feel safe to tell you that the last album before that was Colbie Caillet and before that was Dixie Chicks and before that was Alison Krauss and before that was Norah Jones. Seems like I've developed a female vocalist fetish. :run:

[lorren.biffin]

:D I had one of those for a while too. Some good names in there.

You'd probably really dig:
