Album of the Day

[thestand]

Will do. I just bookmarked "Enjoy Eternal Bliss" for the next time I'm not on the University network. Is that the album you're talking about?

Yep.

It's only 4 songs long (and technically an EP) but given that the entire thing clocks in at over an hour, it could essentially be a major release.

What exactly is this? Is it covers, or is it original stuff?

Almost all original. At least one is a cover, though. Sharon Jones' track.

love the lemonheads.

i saw them a couple of years ago and while i was standing outside the venue.. i watched two guy's carry evan dando into the place and basically put him on stage. he gets wrecked before he goes on. still good though and at times hilarious.

[trlev]

i suspect Here We go Magic is gonna go over well here. they're all over the map with their sound, but the opening track is totally channeling paul simon/graceland.

I can see why. I listened to it again yesterday, and I really think it's quite good on my first real glances. I'll be putting it on again today, I'm sure.

This album has me curious. I was shown a track a while ago and it seems like actual, sincere rap which is a concept completely new to me.

Wilco-Sky Blue Sky

David Ford - Songs for the Road (I forgot how rockin' of a song Requiem is).

Mos Def & Talib Kweli are very socially conscious. The album came out after BIG and Tupac were murdered and focuses a lot on how there is too much violence in hip-hop. Plus they're two great MCs, so the album works on that level, too. Check out "Definition" if nothing else.

Excellent stuff. Just found songsfromtheroad.co.uk, which has about 40 shows (in mp3, not FLAC, sorry) for download.

Just a few things here and there. There are a lot of covers. His "Oh, What a Night" is great, as is his cover of Britney Spears' "Toxic," where he uses a tape of the actual beat to play along to.

Also, get these:

They're in wma, but iTunes will convert to mp3. A little EP he put out a while ago. The second song is great.

Quite awesome. Although I am throughly confused about whether its Realpeople or The Real People. I think I am going to go with the latter.

I was 100% sober when I posted that. . Also I need your SM name again. I deleted a bunch of people when I was having issues, but I fixed it now, and can re-add you.

I really enjoyed this album. I may have been the only one who liked it better than Deerhunter's album last year. But its really fucking good.

Well, if you check the best blog in the world, you'll see that it has the coverart, which says Realpeople on it.
