Default Latest CD's

Pearl Jam-surprisingly good.
better than anything they have done since Vitalogy,
and that was a long time ago.
did not think they had it in them, but was glad to be wrong.
Its not TEN or even VS, but it is really good music that jams at times which is more than what I can say about Riot Act, Lost Dogs, Binaural, Yield, and No Code.

Red Hot Chili Peppers-wtf are they thinking?
further away from the punk/funk/rap/rock style than ever before.
was slow and really mello for much of the 2 albums.
it sucks b/c I think they were close to their best sound ever in By The Way, which was their previous album.
cant believe they waited all this time, put together a double disc, and then came up with this.

Audioslave-not bad.
better then Out of Exile(2nd album) but nothing close to as good as their debut album.
the debut album was a pure rock/metal album that will go down in history as one of the best of all time.
this album has some of that, but they seem to diverge into somewhat of a punk sound at times, and it does not work for them.
still some really songs though.

I need to get the new Bob Dylan CD. will let you guys know what I think when I do.

LOL, I start singing "Summer Wind" the first warm day of summer.

Not sure if the exact name, but I bought it at FYE. It is mostly is earlier works that you don't hear so much. They have some great box seats though.

i'm listening to a lot of The Weepies right now. Probably not the style we're looking for here, but they're great.

Have got the Bob Dylan CD myself, and obviously it's an album that everyone needs to listen to. Worth the long wait, and no doubt that its only going to improve with repeated listening.

Couple of other names for you which you may or may not have heard of. The Infadels, only just discovered them and they soon became the soundtrack to my summer! Also The Organ, all female Canadian band with more than a passing resemblance to The Smiths.

Recently got the Rushmore Records twin disk compilation "Listen to Bob Dylan" with a number of their slightly obscure artists covering 20+ tracks.. IT'S FABULOUS... Can't recco enough..

bumping this thread up.
someone help me out here.

Ive not bought a cd in almost a week now and that seriously p*sses me off.

anyone heard anything good recently?

and one of you Chicago guys let me know if the Pumpkins are really getting back together in some form. I hear rumors, but thats all it is I think.
I know this, Corgan needs to be producing something, somewhere, with some people.

Repent, I have heard the same thing, and it is darcy, james, jimmy and billy....it should be an awesome CD if he goes back to old school pumpkins and not the love/peace crap, one, two songs max of that. Give me some Rage in a Cage or anything on Siamese any day of the week

Bellamy,
You're right about Corrine Bailey Rae. I was salty that I didn't get to see her in concert when she came to MPLS last month... but it was mainly because I didn't have a lovely lady to accompany me. She is very good. If you guys wanna sample some of her stuff-

lol,
Im kind of slow to come around to things.
i keep hearing iggy talking about a blackberry or something on TVG and I dont even know what the hell it is.
I barely know how to use half of the features on my cell phone.

I really only listen to music when Im driving so cds are fine with me.
anyone who has lived in TX knows there can be plenty of time spent on the road and a good cd collection is essential.

Anyone heard the new Bob Seger (without the Silver Bullet Band) CD yet?
It's better than his last two.

'Pent...

I agree with you on this one. I got Audioslaves new CD and while it is ok...it still does not touch the work they did from their debut album. That CD just plain kicked ass.

its crazy isnt it?
there is not a bad song on that debut album.
took the best parts of Soundgarden and refined it a little bit. but with that classic base presence of Rage.
just awesome stuff.

I cant think of a better debut album from any band. they have strayed a bit from that sound, but its still better than anything else being put out.

I get tired of Audioslave's social and political activism sometimes, but there is not a better band out there.
