Hey, has anyone listened to the new Suicide album yet? It
sounds quite awkward. They tried to update their sound but
still remain above all current microtrends in electronic
music. I still can't decide whether it's OK or plain crap...

Wilt - My Medicine
Plaid - P Brane
Pearl Jam - Riot Act

if you compare 2002 with 2001, 2002 is disappointing a
little for the releases. but that's only because 2001 was
an insanely good year. 2002 still is decent imo.

doll doll doll came out this year?

what was a letdown about the nin live album? it's pretty
much their standard setlist from their last tour, which was
amazing..

as for still, when did you last listen to that? it's
amazing.. especially the new pieces (though the updated
tracks are interesting too)

i have this sigur ros mental block thing cos everyone always
talks about them.. a few months ago i finally downloaded
their 2000 album (2nd full length) and enjoyed it, but
haven't listened since. i doubt i'll hear ( ) for months to
come..

LOL, i actually do agree with you... it's a great little
song, and i really love it. It's just like you said, sounds
cheerful and upbeat, but still not too happy... there's also
a little melancholy going on in there.

All i'm saying is the other three tracks are even
better
!

Mmmm well don't get too excited George, it's
definitely nice to listen to but it ain't all that =oD

A top ten of this year I'll probably do with everyone else
in a month or so.

But check out 'Ghost' - that's definitely my favourite from
that record.

SMAK .. nuther one of them SKAM samplers .. 2cds of
goodness, bit crushed, broken rhythms, with submerged tinges
of melody/atmosphere. IDM equivalent of tribal music.
