Theres an awful lot of shite out there at the moment...

Someone's been trying to convince me of how wonderful British Sea Power are
- but I just can't see it :o/

I'm currently grooving to  the Wooden Shjips album & also 'Passover' by the
Black Angels - both drugged out

Doorsy / Velvetsy / Stooges type guitar & farfisa fests ......but done
really well

 

Also just discovered a band called Dub Trio - a mixture of Dub & Doom metal 

Well - they float my musical boat anyway ;o)

 

Other than that, it's the old faithfuls for me too at the moment

old faithfuls in this case including Fields of the Nephilim, Van der Graaf
Generator & Current 93

 

so its off to the old folks home for me too by the looks of it

Hey hey. I hate to start sounding like a crusty old curmudgeon, but I've got
a bit of an issue with modern music.

Seems anymore I'm always falling back on old standards when I throw on the
stereo. 

(Kj, Stranglers, The Fall, Wire, Ian Dury). 

Maybe it's just me getting older, but nothing really kicks me in the plums
anymore. Seems like most 'music' these

days is just sterile, unimaginative, and as threatening as a baby. I don't
get alot of this 'Folk Rock', like 

Iron and Wine, Devandra Barnhart, etc. Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm not a
closed minded twat, it's just that there's 

very little out there that's striking the anvil, so to speak.

SO gatherers, I do trust your opinions, and taste, so I ask you, what's out
there anymore? What's new that's been

floating your boat? The last few good things i've dug into are: Mogwai,
Thievery Corporation, 

Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra, Polysics, and the new Firewater record (Todd
Ashley - ex Cop Shoot Cop)

Thanks for letting me ramble..................
