Won't Be Long by The Hives

Just got my copy of The Black and White Album. I have some complaints with the album, and it's definitely their least consistent yet. Too many freaky experimental tracks. But some of the songs, this one and "You Dress Up For Armageddon," especially, are insanely catchy. They're more pop-punk than ever.

The mention of "freaky experimental tracks" perks my ears, but I suppose it'll just be something mundane like a dancy electronic track rather than the outrageous strangeness I constantly crave

NP: Iron Maiden, "The Loneliness Of The Long Distance Runner". Weird topic to write a heavy metal song about. I do like me some Maiden, possibly my favourite "proper" metal band, though "Heaven Can Wait" is the best song off this album (Somewhere In Time) and as such all the other songs come off the poorer for the comparison

Yeah that's what it's more like. Dancy Electronic stuff is a big change from the indie-influenced punk that they usually do.

I'm listening to VeggieTales. Makes me feel five again.

Hellfire - Judge Claude Frollo

Truly amazing.

Los Angelos - theSTART

The title of this song confuses me...

Give It Away - Red Hot Chili Peppers

Awesome bass line in this.

Carry on wayward son- Kansas.

I think it's a amazing song.

Porcupine Tree - Fear Of A Blank Planet

Pretty cool song.

Sloshy · **Posted:** Wed Nov 28, 2007 2:23 am

"Homestar runner will be right right back!"

But after that I'm listening to Last Splash- The Breeders.

Tom Sawyer by Rush

If Geddy Lee's voice was just a half octave lower, I'd be a Rush fan.

The Noid · **Posted:** Wed Nov 28, 2007 8:24 pm

Hellfire again.

It truly is awesome. I case you don't know, it's sung by Judge Claude Frollo and as he sings about Ezmerelda and he blames her for him taking a fancy to her. There's a lot of cool fire and music and stuff.

Duh it's RHCP. Many RHCP songs include "awesome bass line."

Noel! Noel! by Eve 6

Made a Holiday station on Pandora. The songs aren't as similar as songs on other stations, but I like variety Christmas music. Apparently the only similarity so far is "it has electric guitar parts."

Ben Lee - Thrash Unreal.

So for those unaware: Australia's little darling singer/songwriter, Ben Lee, covered Against Me!'s most recent album New Wave in its entirety and posted it for free on his website. It's pretty interesting.

Animal Behavior - Praxis

The outro solo of this song is amazing.

ArkAngel - Hard Attack

"Kick it hard from the back to the front, front to the back!" The beat to this song is so funky. The music is very simple, but dark. The ending is very abrupt, but that could be fixed in a DJ mix set or by just a simple fade.

CSS - Let's Make Love and Listen to Death From Above

I don't care if CSS, and especially this song, is the wonder-darling of every hipster dance club DJ. It's a really good one.

Guerrilla Radio by Rage Against the Machine

I never really got in to Rage, but I like this song. Good riff and catchy lyrics.

See, I feel like the Hives really missed the mark with Tyrannosaurus Hives because it really just sounded like they were trying to cash off the big New-New-Wave/Post-Punk-Revival à la Franz Ferdinand and others. Barely Legal still remains their strongest release so far, but Veni Vidi Vicious is almost just as good too.

Anyway.

Action Patrol - EQ45
It's more hyper 90s insano-core, and I'm very happy with that. Everyone should listen to Action Patrol. Plus, you can download their entire discography for free, which is always respect-worthy.

Cherry Chocolate Rain - Tay Zonday

**I move away from the mic to sellout

MikeMcG · **Posted:** Fri Nov 30, 2007 5:34 am

Too true.

Sadder? Weirder? - Bomb the Music Industry!

It looks like BtMI! put up new demos on their MySpace. Both seem like a major step up from Get Warmer!, which is always a good thing.

The Cure - Boys Don't Cry

Funk you if you don't like "Boys Don't Cry." End of story.

Caramel Dansen.

God this thing is screwy.

Sonic Youth - Titanium Expose

What an awesome, awesome, awesome song. Listening to the main riff is better than any drug.

Sonic Youth - Tremens

Haunting second track off SYR 1. I think I like the super-experimental/avant-garde Sonic Youth stuff the best.

Capt. Ido Nos · **Posted:** Sat Dec 01, 2007 12:45 am

I stinking had The March of the Ents *and* Rickroll stuck in my head during my discrete math test today. What gives?

Reverend Horton Heat - Run, Rudolph, Run

Christmas rules.
The Rev rules.
'Nuff said.

You Never Give Me Your Money - The Beatles

The Abbey Road ending medley is better than you and your face.

Free Bird - Lynard Skynard

Is a review even needed? The song is awesome.

Einoo T. Spork · **Posted:** Sat Dec 01, 2007 6:48 pm

Particle Man - TMBG

I listened to this song so many times when I first got into TMBG that it's just annoying now. But still kinda cool.

Duecex2 · **Posted:** Sat Dec 01, 2007 7:01 pm

When I first got into TMBG I listened to nothing but Ana Ng. I have no idea why.
