Pavement has a song on the 1993 No Alternative CD called "Unseen Power of the Picket Fence", which is about R.E.M., and apparently the Civil War as well... Some bands I like to name check, And one of them is REM, Classic songs with a long history Southern boys just like you and me. R - E - M...

I've listened to it twice today, and it is, in two words, totally awesome. But I suppose I would be suspected to say that :wink: Anyway check it out sometime

Hi guys. The new Sonic Youth single is called "Unmade Bed." I haven't heard it yet, but tomorrow the album will be bought by me :wink:

Kissing the Lipless is great... really an excellent song

The Wrens - I Married Sonja

No thread is complete without a simpsons pic (left to right: Lee, Kim, Steve, Thurston)

Woops - I completely missed this thread somehow. Sorry! I'm always up for SY talk. Which album to begin with? (upon reading the thread, I see that HeadsOnSticks has already recommended Daydream Nation.) I would like to second the opinion of my esteemed colleague HeadsOnSticks and recommend...

:up: for Pavement (X2), Radiohead, My Bloody Valentine, Nirvana. I like the old list better, only because I think Loveless is better than OK Computer. :reject: And I think Slanted and Enchanted is better than both of them :reject: :reject:

The Wrens! Their masterful album "Secaucus" is almost impossible to find online, so ebay or the local record store is probably your best bet. But it's so awesome! p.s. they just came out with a new CD, "The Meadowlands", which received a godly score from that we're-so-indie-it-hurts publication...

Is it a dog? A lion? Some sort of mythological half-dog, half-lion? Whatever it is, I wouldn't want to meet one...

Thanks for the info, everyone! They sound good, perhaps I will buy an album..

Can someone enlighten me on Air? Good band? Recommended albums? And most importantly, what do they sound like? Thanks!

Have you ever heard a song on the radio, and thought "hmm... that song sounds an awful lot like _____"? The best example of this that I know of is the Pixies "I Bleed" and Weezer's "Sweater Song." Not saying that Weezer was consciously ripping off the Pixies, but geez those songs sound alike...

Yes.. yes you should.. I think I'm getting predictable :wink:

I agree. By the way, does anyone else think that Fuel's other hit song (In My Hands or whatever it's called) sounds awfully similar to this song? Still, Shimmer is good. Oh, and how about Everlong by Foo Fighters?

You got it! :yes: :up:

Just wondering if you do, isn't it an awesome++++ album? if you don't, feel free to buy it p.s. It's by Pavement

OK here are the ones that were too tough for you :wink: 1. 3. 5. 7. ' (that last one is My Bloody Valentine - Loveless)
