Which record should I check out first? I know there are some fans on this board, I think naaic has one of their sleeves as his avatar... speak up! I've only heard the song 'they removed all trace that anything had ever happened here' but I really liked it... sort of sad and pastoral. Opinions? Recommendations? |

Gimme some more flesh baby! I'm working with bare bones here.. What do you think of it? Perhaps an adjective or two? |

Cabbog: I you liked 'they removed all trace...' definitely get Cold House, the album is amazing, all types of styles....a little hip hop, glitch, post-rock, etc. The whole album has that "sad and pastoral" sound to it, pretty much everything Hood has put out sounds like that. Hood is probably my favorite band, i can't recommend Cold House enough! |

Hood's two previous albums 'The Cycle of Days and Seasons' and 'Rustic Houses Forlorn Valleys' are both really good as well...less glitchy than 'Cold House' but the same melancholic feel. Their earliest records are filled with more low-fi rock type of stuff with BOC-like interludes. Really give it a listen if you're interested. check out their website: www.hoodmusic.net |

Yeah, I was going to say that they remind me of BOC a bit. Not so much in their musical style but in the images they conjure up and the atmosphere they exude. Thanks for the pointers naaic, I'll check out their site and make sure to pick up 'Cold House' next chance I get. |

The Remote Viewer i try to mention this band all the time, but never get any response about them. it's two former members of Hood, that focus on idm...really, really good idm. they released a record on city centre offices this year that is wonderful. if you like Hood, Múm, Fennesz, CCO/Morr Music releases, you'll love this!! my advice: pick up everything by Hood and The Remote Viewer you can find. |

I like the name. http://www.irva.org/ I'll have to check them out after Hood. Múm is okay, they sound sort of like Ae's glass menagerie. Haven't heard any of the others.. |

so, i had heard that why? and dose did something on this hood album but i had the impression that they were some sort of hard rock outfit so i never checked it out. after hearing a couple tracks i'm getting cold house asap. LOVE IT. are the albums as good? |

hehe hard rock band, that's cute. couldn't be further from the sound of cold house, though previous albums have rocked out quite a fair amount! some great mp3's over at (official web site) ... look around and you'll find a link to even more mp3's. their best material so far has been cold house, but you can't go wrong picking up that album and their retrospective (which contains hits and unreleased tracks from before cold house). |

it is, my young friend. let's talk in soft tones, i think we're making Cabbog cry. |

[strokes beard] Very intriguing, indeed! Sounds like the sort thing I'd like. Not to go too far off on a tangent, but: Buffalo Man, you look good with hair. |

Try the 'singles compiled' album! Nice place to start... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And do listen to Disco Inferno if you like Hood! They are even better than Hood! |

yes, i got cold house last month.. and its one of the best cd's i've bought all year the track "you show no emotion at all" is worth the price of the album alone.. the single of said track comes with a nice video too other than those two releases, i've only heard the 'home is where it hurts' ep and it was good, but not as good as cold house.. also look into the band clue to kalo.. similar to hood, but more mellow. |

i have COLD HOUSE and it's one of the BEST CD's i've purchased recently....maybe ever. every song is lush....and different. it's never boring! *is shocked i have a CD before Cabbog......do'h* buy it, you'll like it even the packaging is cool! |

My brow is naturally opressed so I'm always giving off the impression that life is futile.. Sort of like that black detective from CSI. I'll probably have to get botox by the time I'm 14 but that's okay I guess - Bison Boy is a moody thing so the furrowed look accents his character. Speaking of, I was actually planning on picking up Cold House next time I goto Buffalo. There's a shop up there that probably stocks it... If not, there's always a crate full of other records begging to be bought. |

Cold House is defintitly one of my better purchases of 2003. I'm glad Cabbog started this thread, because I am itching to check out more Hood albums. Maybe the Singles compilation should tide me over? |

i love hood to death! 'cold house' is by far their best, but 'The Cycle of Days and Seasons' and 'Rustic Houses Forlorn Valleys' are awesome too. I've got the 'here i go again..' cd from the remote viewer too, and it's great. too bad i can't find their other stuff. [spam]hood interview at [/spam] |
