    Songs of Innocence - Album Discussion

    I'm back...yikes. It's been four years since I last logged in here, and I did it today because I can't get this U2 album out of my mind. It's quite honestly their best album since All That You Can't Leave Behind, and one of their best albums overall. I just love it to death. There are elements...

    Atoms for Peace

    I think amok is a very good effort. Like it's been said, it's more of a Thom solo album than anything...but it is still very good.

    Random Music Talk LXXVIII: Crashing Miley's Toluca Lake Pad

    I wonder if the new Depeche Mode will be good? I'm holding off on listening to singles for right now, but I can't wait to hear it!

    The Pope resigns / New Pope discussion

    What is troubling is the child abuse allegations. Not the fact the Pope resigned. The only reason he did resign is because of the abuse allegations...not because of any other reason. That's pretty sad, that the Catholic church was hiding pedophiles and protecting them.

    David Bowie.

    I think the new Bowie album is fantastic! Out of the 25 studio album he's given us, it's easily in the top ten. I can't pick a weak song from the album, and if the other 9 studio albums didn't exist, you could argue that it's his best. It's certainly the best album of the year.

    Disciplining Your Child

    I don't think it's ever right to hit a child, under any circumstances.

    Adult Children’s ‘Bad Mothering’ Lawsuit Dismissed

    Hey, can I sue my former teachers for bad classes? I didn't enjoy my history classes in high school very much. But seriously, this is unbelievable! It's ridiculous that this is actually considered appropriate. :doh:

    Why did you buy the uber deluxe box of achtung baby?

    Thanks! I looked at all the stuff included. I don't really need all that, although it would be nice to have it! I am out of a job right now, so can't preorder right now. I may have to wait till Christmas for this one.

    Apple and U2

    I got my first Ipod in 2005, but it wasn't a U2 ipod. I did think it was really cool how U2 stood behind technology like that, though!

    Why did you buy the uber deluxe box of achtung baby?

    Is it available now? Wow! I stay away for months and months, and now discover this?!

    Humour in the Right Wing

    Republicans are so funny, because they're so stupid! :applaud:

    Thanks for the music, Phil

    I've liked everything that Phil has done, both with Genesis and solo. The Motown album was a great one, shame it was the final curtain call. :( Abacab is a great album, was spinning it yesterday. I honestly can't pick a bad Genesis album.

    Would You Rather Have The New Album...

    Most of the time, I rank the "weaker albums" higher than the other albums. So if I had four new albums, on par with Zooropa (my favorite U2 album), then that would be just fine. :)

    Do you believe in hell?

    I believe in hell, although I believe that you can repent for your sins.' Oh, and I also believe the bible is outdated in some places.

    New U2 Album Discussion (alt title: Lose Your Will To Live Here)

    My guess is that we won't see something until next year, or the year after that. They're probably being very careful, after the way their last two albums were taken critically.

    R.E.M. - upcoming album 'Collapse Into Now' / General Discussion

    This is a really mellow and down to earth record. I can't say much more than that, because it's still soaking in. But it's a great album.

    Avril Lavigne Mergathon/What REALLY caused Avril Lavigne’s career to go downhill?

    I actually am a huge Avril fan, got all the albums and DVDs, as well as a poster and a few magazines and cd singles. I already have the new album, and it's a brilliant piece of art. Can't really say that for her other 3 albums, but this time she created a masterpiece. Plus, she wrote 7 of the...

    Borders files for bankruptcy

    This really irritates me. At a time when none of the local music stores were carrying the PG-era Genesis boxset, Borders had it. Same with the Movie box. They had things that other stores didn't have, and now who's going to carry those things? Will I have to do all my shopping on Amazon? What...

    New Radiohead album announced The King of Limbs

    I feel that the band have been growing with each album. Each album has been a progression, which I feel has really made all the difference between a "good album" and a "great album." IR was a great album. Limbs is an even greater album. With the exception of Hail, which was a step backwards...

    U S Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, a Democrat, shot at public appearance!!

    This whole thing is just tragic. Tragic for the victims, tragic for the shooter (who was mentally disturbed, and belonged in a psych ward), just completely tragic.

    New album in the works while in NZ and Australia

    Well, I was incredibly pleased with NLOTH. If they make an album even half as good as that album, we're all in luck. That being said, I hope that they move fast and don't delay it too long.
