The Stills - Without Feathers

hxxp://beta.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=5BDEE5F101F12B14

while my YSI loads (taking forever) here is a rapidshare link for anyone who needs the built to spill...otherwise the YSI is coming

Thanks. I don't know what the problem is but these days Flashget refuses to download stuff from rapidshare. I had to use Save As.

through track 4 this new Stills record is quite boring sadly. compare this with their last record and you have a band that really just can't find their sound imo. shouldn't be too surprised considering they used to be in a Ska band not long ago



i'm feeling sorta how i felt with Howl the first few listens... except i at least enjoyed that one a bit

built to spill- you in reverse

Thanks A-Team! I already used your rapidshare link though.

hey no prob man...just spreading the love in case there is anyone else who missed this great album...im impressed so far!

Man, I'm really enjoying this, and I'm not a jazz fan by any stretch.

You'd probably enjoy the jazz stuff it's influenced by though (Chet Baker, for example). It's got nothing to do with jazz as in Miles, Coltrane, Mingus etc. It's fun jazz, not challenging jazz.

BTW, i'm not a huge jazz fan either. I like some stuff but i'm not one of those people whose top 20 lists always have at least 4-5 jazz albums thrown in.

Thanks for upping this, even if it does end up sucking.

You guys had me worried about the new Stills. It's definitely more commercial-sounding, but it's not a complete trainwreck. It might be a little early for them to be breaking out the horns and keyboards, but I found Logic kind of same-y after a while, so maybe it's a good thing. And really, doesn't the world need a new Travis?

Here's a permanent link to Embrace if you haven't snapped it up yet

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YRJWEGRH

the world didn't need the first one.

yeah, they were better when they went by the name "james"

I have no idea why, but I'm downloading this. Love for the first two albums I guess, though I have no hopes for any sort of return to form.

why do you hate "out of nothing" so much?

I mean its no classic but a great record none the less...

oh and live they get crazy rockin'........waaay better than I thought it was gonna be, the whole place was jumpin around......

I also thought Out of Nothing was not very good, a load of sweeping epic build up that amounted to shit on every song.

I dunno, it just wasn't doing anything for me. All middle of the road sounding pap. I vaguely remember the last song being the most interesting, but I'd have to download it again to find out for sure. Also, originally, this was supposed to be called Exploding Machines, but they settled for the more bland, accessible This New Day. Come on now.

yeah the first and last songs were the best. Did anyone listen to "flaming red hair" from on of the out of nothing singles? very techno/rock but it really worked well for them. I wish this new album was more like that song, but I do think the new album is as good as the first. too many songs on the first, I like a good 10 song album when almoist every song is top.

The new Stills is pretty lousy, alright...it's the sound of a band that has completely lost its direction and don't know which way to go. If you're going to go all mainstream on us, please, please give us some hooks, don't just twiddle around for an hour. We all have better stuff to listen to.

Actually, "Baby Blues" (the one with Emily Haines) is good.

Can someone re-up the Stills disc?

EDIT: Nevermind, got it elsewhere.

if anyone has disc 2 to Massive Attack's new best of I will be one happy shit.

this thread is worthless without the new lansing-dreiden.

I just streamed their tracks from their website, seems interesting. I'm game. They're from Lansing, IL right?

I've never heard any L-D, but Pfork sure seems to hate them! 3.7 and 5.4! Ouch!

correction: chris ott hates them.

that rating is a bad joke.

does anyone have the sunset rubdown EP?...A-team maybe? I'd really like to hear what it has in comparison to the new LP which I'm still diggin (amazing with canal phones and the like)

Hey this new Embrace album isn't half bad so far..only got through half of it. That new single is incredibley cheesy as hell though but track #1 is a good start. There's even
a discoey type of song. I think they've done enough to alter their sound
to continue not working at burger king. I like it better than
Coldplay anyway.

im ashamed, but i still dont have it...but i do have 2 of the 5 tracks which i can ysi if no one ups the whole EP. i have "A Day in the Graveyard II" and "Three Colours II" if you want em...

anboyd have neko case's album or
art brut?

yeah sure, I'd like to hear those tunes

How awesome is this?



For $500, the GhostFace Killah Doll comes with a real 14k gold chain, a gold chalice with Swarovski crystals, a special mixtape, original recordings of GFK’s catchphrases, and a 1 in 500 chance to hang out with the Killah himself in person.

just curious if anyone can post the Tapes 'n Tapes disc or if the new Sunset Rubdown full length has leaked yet or just the EP. If either could be posted, I'd be pleased as punch!

The full length was up before. I can put it up but probibly wont be able to until tonight or so. also thanks for the EP. cant download until a little later in the day but hopefully it's still there

I actually like the TnT album better than the Sunset Rubdown, but I have to give it another listen. Here's a perma-link to the TnT

Sunset Rubdown - Shut Up I Am Dreaming

hxxp://s53.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=06KB6E8P7RMY80G3W43WOKMJ2V

i love it, one of my top albums of the year.

it stomps all over that annoying, piece of shit Destroyer album (had to get a shot in, i'm sick of reading about that half-talent)

You need release
You need to feel at peace
With Destroyer
YOU FUCKING MANIAC

1000th post

I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't understand why Destroyer is held in such high regard. I thought the album was boring, at best, when it wasn't just plain annoying. I could not handle another minute of his whiney, nasaly "nya nya nya" crap.

It's amazing in every way, shape, and form, I love it more now than I did when it first leaked, which is unusual. Blasphemer!!

Yeah well, I'm Martin Luther, and I'm gonna tear your fucking church down.

Sorry to interrupt all of the Destroyer hating ( how dare you??) but the Crystal Skulls album is amazing. For those of you who dont know about it, its called Outgoing Behaviour and its really frickin' good. Like up there with Rubies ( ) and Shut Up Im Dreaming good...

But dont take my word for it...here, for all of you:

Anybody willing to re-up the Hot Chip disc? I'd never hear dof them until I watched the "Over and Over" video in the video thread just now. Pretty sweet. I understand they're damn fine live.

While cruising around the blogosphere a little while ago, i came across one of my favorite new bands. They are called Slowlands, and early word on the band is comparing them to the likes of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and Wolf Parade. Im not quite hearing either of those bands in Slowlands, but they do remind me alot of Band of Horses (although i actually prefer Slowlands). I have salvaged 5 tracks from their debut LP, but i couldnt find the tracklisting online, so im not sure how much of the album i actually have. Ill post the tracks i have here, but if anyone has the full record or knows the tracklisting, id appreciate to have either/or

Slowlands- Never Was There a Town (5 tracks)


Here is the Hot Chip album. To be honest, i hated everything about this band until i heard this album. Im so glad i gave it a listen though, because this album is really quite good.

Hot Chip- The Warning

Here is the Hot Chip album.

Thanks for this! I'm dl'ing it now and then I'm going to listen to it. I think I'll check out Slowlands, too, a band I have not heard of. Thanks again!
