ha, i also have the killers' stuff, but i just downloaded those on a whim, so i don't count them.

the last new album i bought was the sun and the moon by the bravery, and consolers of the lonely. see, i'm not totally stuck in the 80s

I have so much music to catch up on. It's hard work being as "hep" and "with it" as I am.

The last album I legitimately bought was "Those Who Tell the Truth ... ETC." by Explosions in the Sky.

[coolian2]

Pretty much, yeah.

No, a couple of weeks ago, along with Diamond Dogs.

 

[LemonMelon]

Pretty good choices though. One of the last legitimate purchases I remember making was Velvet Underground's Loaded and The Replacements' Tim for like $20 last summer. Both artists and albums are worth checking out BTW.

i've heard of the white stripes...just not the band members

 

[Varitek]

subtract coldplay

 

[coolian2]

Holy shit, i just did it again. I thought i had an essay due on Wednesday, but it isn't due until the 27th.


*unclenches*

 

[phillyfan26]

Oh, REM should be on that list too.

I want to give Coldplay a shot. I gave Radiohead a shot and didn't get into it, though I still haven't heard most of OK Computer.

 

[coolian2]

subtract coldplay

divide by Lifehouse

 

[LemonMelon]

subtract coldplay

No he should. And I have to listen to Viva La Vida or I can't be a smartass in B&C with any confidence.

 

[phillyfan26]

I've got to fill up the gas tank in the car. Back in 20.

 

[the tourist]

I intend to listen to it this evening.

Cool. Let me know what you think when you do.

 

[the tourist]

Consolers Of The Lonely is surprisingly good...I was losing faith in Jack White for a minute there.

I do like that album, but I like Benson more than White.

 

[coolian2]

I've got to fill up the gas tank in the car. Back in 20.

Only 20 minutes? I thought it took longer than that to take out a mortgage.

Did you get the Sun and Moon double album?

 

[Varitek]

what year did consolers of the lonely come out?

 

[the tourist]

I want to give Coldplay a shot.

Coldplay isn't all that bad. Their "Parachutes" album is actually pretty good all the way through.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

Do You Like Rock Music?

well, do you?

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

I want to give Coldplay a shot.

me too. in the head!

 

[Varitek]

Only 20 minutes? I thought it took longer than that to take out a mortgage.

lol

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

Did you get the Sun and Moon double album?

of course

 

[LemonMelon]

well, do you?

No, but only because Pitchfork doesn't.

 

[the tourist]

of course

I like the alternate takes quite a bit--especially of "Believe"

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

No, but only because Pitchfork doesn't.

i know what you mean

 

[the tourist]

No, but only because Pitchfork doesn't.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

me too, i think both discs are great. although i kind of did a double take, the track every word from your mouth is a knife in my ear or whatever, the version off the first disc, the music sounds almost identical to fearless. they ripped themselves off
