^So I guess you really dont like Oasis, lol



I really couldn't care less what the haters/media say about them, I still love there music, Dig Out Your Soul is a great album, Falling Down in particular is an excellent song.

I like some of their old stuff. Whats the Story, Morning Glory (I think thats the name ) is their best album, IMO.

Also, do you know/like Feeder?

I ask cause they are more famous in Europe, specially in England.

yeah, thats the album name, its there 2nd studio album from 1995 (britpop! XD), its also my 2nd fave Oasis album (3rd fave album ever)

yeah, I know Feeder, I have some of there stuff on my iPod, I found them through one of the earlier Gran Turismo games (on the soundtrack)

my favourite songs of theres are: Just a Day, Buck Rogers, Lost and Found, Just The Way Im Feeling and Seven Days In The Sun

Nice. its just that I live in Brazil and no one knows them here.

They are my favorite band and I love their 2002 album, "Comfort in Sound" the most.

Surprisingly, most fans I see on the internet like their old stuff better.

My favorite songs ever are: Forget About Tomorrow and Just the Way Im Feeling.

 

cool, I don't like that many bands tbh (only 28 artists on my last fm/ipod, lolz)

heres one of my fave songs that you may not have heard

Pretty good. I dont like when songs take 1 minute to start but once it did i really liked the melody.

Now here is a Feeder one:

Around the Network

To throw on a few more recommendations:

The Raveonettes--In and Out of Control. Fuzzy, noisy, loud, catchy synth-pop with a rock edge, and usually strange, dark lyrics.

P.O.S--Never Better. Weighty, lyric driven rap. It feels very pertinent, very caught up in modern events, and is, for the most part, a solo effort on P.O.S's part (not overflowing with "feat. whoever" credits. If you like rap, especially underground/good rap, get it.

Memory Tapes--Seek Magic. Atmospheric electronica. Most of it is downtempo, has a good bit of actual instrumentation sampled and/or mixed in, resulting in really unique, fresh sound. Most of the songs are inexplcably evocative--you listen to them for the first time and are hit with a wave of nostalgia, like you're hearing something you'd heard years ago but had completely forgotten about. Very, very good album that almost anybody, once they give it a chance, can appreciate.

BTW I'm trying to give recommendations from wildly different genres so that no matter who you are, you'll find at least one album to enjoy (I literally listen to EVERYTHING).

My Top Albums This Year. No order.

 

I was disappointed with this its a good rock album but nothing to memorable besides Outlaw Pete, and very little of Clarence Clemons signature sax playing. 7.5/10

A strong energetic rock album from the UK. With influences ranging from The Clash to Oasis. 7.5/10

 

This album seems thrown together, with old songs, recycled beats, and two songs that don't even have Doom!  However track by track this album is as good as any other album Doom has put out and was the only hip-hop album through the first half of the year that I was able to enjoy.  Definitely on the stranger side lyrically if you've heard Doom before you know what to expect. 7.5/10

Charles Hamilton is the guy getting punched in my sig, and while he has tremendous talent both as a producer and emcee, (He's released about 20 mixtapes over the past year and a half) its been overshadowed by..... lets just say he sabotaged himself (unintentionally) so much that most people said enough is enough, and he dissapeared from the face of the Internet a couple weeks before his debut album was supposed to drop. a couple weeks went by the album never came out, Charles wasn't saying anything and we waited.... until he was dropped from Interscope. After that the album (this album) was leaked.

This album is very different from most Hip-Hop especially the production you'll probably either love it or hate it but give it a chance it's free, and if you like it theres 20 mixtapes to listen to. 7/10

 Mos Def- The Ecstatic

good hip hop album from Mos Def especially after his last.  Very different from most mainstream rap. My only gripe with this is that alot of the songs seem unfinished. 7.5/10

 



My Top albums for 2009 (so far) part 2

Its best not to think of this as a rap record but more of a soul record that happens to have rapping.  A great album from Kid Cudi, introspective lyrics, great production, this is an album in the true sense of the word it's not just a thrown together collection of songs.  Is this the way Hip-hop will go? 9/10

Krs and Buckshot teaming up to take wack rappers to task, dock half a point for way to many guest appearances. enough said 8.5/10

Raekwon is back on the top of his game!!!!!!!! 9/10

After 9 years of industry rule number fourthousand and eighty Q-tips second recorded solo album is finally (officially) out and it does not disappoint this is the closest and best fusion of Jazz and Hip Hop ever done. 8.5/10

I agree with this.

Leo J these are supposed to be GOOD albums



in my opinion its a good album, one of the best of 2008

Leo-J, these are supposed to be from 2009, and not super mainstream so that people can find new music. Who honestly is not aware of Lady Gaga at this point?

Oh, I'll just throw in my 5 most favouritest things of 2009 so far:

Nero's Day at Disneyland - From Rotting Fantasylands (Breakcore!)
OLAibi - Tingaruda (Okinawa-influenced world music style strangeness)
Prefuse 73 - Everything She Touched Turned Ampexian (A refinement of his sound with some prog influences)
Squarepusher - Numbers Lucent (Rave, acid, breakcore, gabber & more - all mixed with insane bass guitar skills)
YMCK - Family Cooking (Lovely 8-bit bleeps and bloops of fun)
