I liked that black mountain song, but one of my favorite bands (spindrift) opened for them and they were bad enough to lose all hope w me.

I discovered Black Mountain when the opened for the Mountain Goats of all people. I had an opposite reaction. They blew me away. Here's a pic.

Specific use music where you just put your fist in the air, your head against the wall and scream is situationally useful for me.

Today: 5FDP - The Way of the Fist.

That has way more melody than that other thing you posted.

I stick with the hipster classics mainly, yer murmers and reckonings, ya know.  Though Monster and Green have some great tracks and New Adventures in Hi Fi is actually fuck*ng classic

R.E.M. is my favorite band ever and I largely agree with this. I would say listen to Fables of the Reconstruction and Life's Rich Pageant, and then depending on which one you like better, either go back in their catalog (for the former) or forward (for the latter).

Stipe's Law says that the overall quality of any given R.E.M. record is indirectly proportional to the comprehensibility of the lyrics.

"Leave" from New Adventures in Hi-Fi--OMG so good a song.

I was perusing Pitchfork's top 50 albums of 2013 and came across Parquet Courts, a band I didn't know. They were no. 40. The description sounded interesting so I Googled 'em up. I found this video. My first thought was that Inev. would really like them. Then I thought that Keith might like them as well. Then I realized that I like them too.

Still perusing the Pitchfork list I got to 17 and Haim. I used to be more in touch with the music scene I guess, because back in the day I would have t least heard of a band before they got to the playing on SNL level of success. I liked the description, but I'll admit I was also swayed by the 3 good looking sisters playing pop music together aspect. Anyways, I wound up really digging this song they played on Saturday Night Live.

I don't know if this belongs here or in the sports thread.

So anyway, Bootsy Collins wrote a Christmas song about Payton Manning.

Ha ha...

According to my iTunes playlist I've listened to this Arcade Fire song 38 times, but that doesn't include the 3 times I've played the video today. The singer is super cute.

And noisy stuff that I used to hate just seems so damn catchy.

I think I've mentioned this before, and I don't know why this is exactly, but to me Pavement is meh, but I really dig Steven Malkmus solo stuff. He has his own Ice Cream flavor now, by the way.
