    It's good to see this thread alive and well. I'm itching to see the guys again, it's been months now. :wink:

    The Strokes Return To The Studio

    It's true.... Pitchfork: The Strokes Return to the Studio The Strokes are back! Kind of! Or on their way to being back, anyway! The early-decade New York rock kings are already set to headline two festivals this summer-- England's Isle of Wight and Scotland's RockNess. And now Spin points out...

    Midlake - 'The Courage of Others', February 2010

    Sorry, it was from November 09, they list from the past several months.

    Midlake - 'The Courage of Others', February 2010

    If you are going by Metacritic, the collective score right now of the album is 74. Which places it behind these albums released this year.

    Midlake - 'The Courage of Others', February 2010

    I didn't think the review was amateur, I just don't think you agree with it mofo. And thats fine, I know you dig the album but I still find it to be a bit of a let down, I guess my expectations were just too high. Don't forget, this same reviewer was the one who gave that Los Campesinos album...

    Midlake - 'The Courage of Others', February 2010

    While I think the reviewer spends too much time comparing the album to Van Occupanther, it is relevant context. And while each Midlake album is a departure, as mentioned, I agree with his assessment that the songs tend to be lifeless and don't go anywhere.

    Hot Chip - "One Life Stand" - Feb 9

    I was disappointed by this as well. The good stuff is really good, like One Life Stand, Take It In and We Have Love. But the bad stuff is some of the worst I have heard from Hot Chip. Too bad.

    Midlake - 'The Courage of Others', February 2010

    Yeah, I know some people are going to love it and don't get me wrong I do "like" the album. But overall, it fell flat for me, and I have listened to it straight through about 7 or 8 times trying to get into it more. But when I listen to it up against some of the more interesting new releases...

    The National

    True, but song titles are pretty fluid until it gets stamped on an album officially. I hope to know a bit more about the record soon, a good friend is doing the bands promotional photography and is in New York this week doing the shots. He's gonna spy for me... :sexywink:

    I noticed that too, but I doubt it was a misquote. Apparently, we all had it wrong up until now.

    Midlake - 'The Courage of Others', February 2010

    I don't dislike it, but I am terribly disappointed. I really expected something big from them with this new album after the long hiatus, and this was not it. It's not bad, it's just not amazing, at all. If you wanted some pretty mid-tempo songs that are hard to differentiate from one another...

    Los Campesinos! -- ROMANCE IS BORING

    It's a fun indie spazz-pop album for sure. But sometimes it's so fun it makes me feel old.

    Pearl Jam Discussion Thread

    I'm not much of a Pearl Jam fan, but I did get a chance to attend their Austin City Limits session last fall and it was amazing. I'm sure you saw it on the TV by now, but it was over 2 hours live and I had the luck to be sitting next to Meg Ryan and Laura Dern during the entire set. Singing...
