i played it out about 3 months ago....need to listen to it again

[skanky80]

That thom yorke album is up there for sure. The Melvins Houdini Live album as well. Same with the new Sonic Youth joint and Tool and The Raconteurs.

Return to Cookie Mountain is one of the best so far as well, although its not actually out yet.

Calling 10,000 Days a top anything is borderline retarded.

[skanky80]

Calling 10,000 Days a top anything is borderline retarded.
Go f*ck yourself.

Its no Aenima, but its a hell of a lot better than most of the other sh*t put out so far this year.

[TheThiefsTheme]

lol @ gnarles barkley on a top 10, that sh1t aint even on my top 100. i won't front, crazy is my jam, but the rest of the album is straight doo-doo. so far head automatica, mars volta, and tool are the only joints i bump on the reg. and call me a ***, but i'm feelin that new dashboard album, too.

[Clem]

I forgot the Wolfmother record.

[skanky80]

I forgot the Wolfmother record.

That got played out fairly quickly, its a good album but doesnt have a whole lot of songs that keep your interest for more then a few listens.

[mansell]

these are my favorites so far, i wouldnt say they are the best because i didnt listen to alot of other shyt...

ontop of our game - dfb
get that paper - do or die
IV - godsmack
pearl jam - pearl kam
wolfmother - wolfmother
killa season - camron
the big bang - busta
ragga ragga ragga 06

[Clem]

:thumbsdow

Spank Rock - Yoyoyoyoyo is another great record.

[BigHedd]

that pipettes record might be the most carefree record that ive heard in a minute. priddops on the link.

[skanky80]

:thumbsdow

If it still has the same replay value to you, more power to you. I honestly think you are one of the first people I've heard say that though.

[yaga]

Right. It isn't an Aenima. It isn't a f*cking Lateralus, either. There's more than ten records that came out this year better than that quick, force-fed bullsh*t record that has Maynard sounding like a f*cking jerk-off on some "Foot in mouth & head up asshole / What ya talkin' 'bout?" B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T.

Top ten album this year... wow. And suck my d*ck, kicko... it isn't my fault you're dumb enough to snuggle up with some half-assed album because of the name on the album cover.

Go ahead and name some bad records that came out this year. I'm really interested in hearing your list (i'd bet my future kids the list is reaallly short).

[Dub Ste]

Band of Horses - Everything All The Time
Destroyer - Destroyer's Rubies
Nathan Fake - Drowning In a Sea of Love

Tv On The Radio will be i imagine once I listen to it more, but Wolf Like Me is definitely a contender for best track of the year.

[Zayus]

:thumbsdow
Spank Rock - Yoyoyoyoyo is another great record.

YES.

but technically, wolfmother came out last year. it's still a good album.

my top ten for this year (in no order)

The Roots - Game Theory
Pharrell Williams - In My Mind
Spank Rock - Yoyoyoyoyoyo
Ghostface Killah - Fishscale
Thom Yorke - The Eraser
Yeah Yeah Yeah's - Show Your Bones
Peeping Tom - Peeping Tom
Nelly Furtado - Loose
Mates of State - Bring It Back
Gnarls Barkley - St. Elsewhere

[skanky80]

Gnarls Barkley - St. Elsewhere
The Futureheads - News & Tributes
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Stadium Arcadium
Joe Budden - Mood Muzik II
Ghostface - Fishscale

stefy - the orange album
sway - this is demo

[skanky80]

Pharrell Williams - In My Mind
Yeah Yeah Yeah's - Show Your Bones
Nelly Furtado - Loose
Gnarls Barkley - St. Elsewhere

none of those are better.

[BigHedd]

[Bone Daddy]

Sorry man but 10,000 Days is better than Lateralus. I was worried they were gonna do the same thing with this album they did with that: have no good ideas and essentially make a long ass pointless song cycle in between Maynerds comittment to his sh!tty band, but they came with songs again. A good album, they'll never hit the heights of Anima again, but no one will.

[LazerFace]

Does anyone have a link to ***The Eraser*** please hook me up!

[Zayus]

none of those are better.

unless we've suddenly established a standardised list of what is better, sure they are

[Priest B. Pimpish]

Voices & Organs - forgot the title of their album
Phoenix - It's Never Been Like That
The Radio Dept. - Pet Grief
I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness - Fear Is On Our Side
Tapes 'N Tapes - Loon
Jose Gonzalez - Veneer
Milosh - Meme

only sh1t i know is veneer, which is an absolutely amazing record. makes me tear up and sh1t. but i think its 05. everything else ive not heard of. drop some descriptions or links if you got the time.

[Clem]

If it still has the same replay value to you, more power to you. I honestly think you are one of the first people I've heard say that though.
You know, you might be right. When I first got the record I listened to it for about three days. Since then I haven't listened to it once. I still think it's one of the best of the year.

[Kanekash]

Remy Martin's joint
Camron's joint
As Blood Runs Black's joint (not that good, but it's the only rock I'm really feeling -- at least it's really heavy and crazy)
Wicked Wisdom's joint
DJ Khaled's joint

There might be more (or better choices), but I can't think now.

[Zayus]

i just gotta add the new pigeon john cd. sh!t is catchy

It's not a solid album.

It's not a good album.

It's not better than Lateralus.

It's incomplete, predictable and a failed effort overall. There are two cuts off the record that do justice. That's all. As i said before, it's borderline retarded to call it one of the better records of 2006 thus far. Dude wanted me to name 10 albums better than it; I wouldn't do you the favor. You probably haven't listened to 10 records this year in mentioning that album.

...let it be known i'm not righteous folk. It's just obvious to me, and a lot of other people.

chill, son. that's just your opinion doggy. you know what, i really fukkin HATE all these self righteous, pretentious fools who get so pissed off when someone considers any album they personally dislike anything better than what they believe it is. so kindly fukk off and go listen to your current faux-savior of music gnarles barkley or whatever other no-talent, generic-ass indie band that's the current flavor of the month.

with that said, i think it's a good, solid album, but subpar of what i expected from tool.

you usually seem chill about sh*t, now you are acting like you got your feelings hurt bad or something. you dont like the album? fine. quit acting like a whiny b*tch already. lol @ me only listening to 10 albums this year. chill the f*ck out.

[yaga]

Maynard James Kenan wasted too much. That f*cking beast Tool could have basically ran the scene over with this album.

...instead we got a cool album cover with goggles.

I used to dance my ass off when the DJ threw on Crazy. That's all i can say about Gnarls Barkley.

Congrats on loving the album. It's f*cking horrible.

lol @ saying current flavor of the month to a Tool fan. And "Subpar?" Now you're budging. Dig down, listen again, go back to Undertow... and tell me how Maynard is IMPERSONATING HIMSELF on 7/8 of 10,000 Days. Hardly leaving space on that album for innovation.

I will now f*ck off with this topic, and leave my top albums so far this year (in no particular order):

Jay Dee's joint Donuts.
Ghost's Fishscale
Knife's Silent Shout
Akir's Legacy
Destroyer's Destroyer's Rubies
DPT's Waterloo to Anywhere
Tapes 'N Tapes' Loon
Liars' Drum's Not Dead
YYY's Show Your Bones
and that Band of Horses joint.

[skanky80]

Congrats on loving the album. It's f*cking horrible.

So is the new YYY's album. So congrats on that.

[yaga]

So is the new YYY's album. So congrats on that.

Feeling like you have to defend your taste now, eh? Grow up.

[Clem]

So is the new YYY's album.

:dry::dry::dry:

i'll just add charm by danny! to the list. i've finally started listening to some underground sh!t again this year, and a lot of it is surprisingly good

[Kanekash]

Aight, I'm Top 5 Poster Dead or Alive, so listen to me.
90 percent of the albums you all mentioned are bad. I prolly only heard one of them, but I can tell they're bad. So let's stop arguing and starting sharing the love of music.

[TheThiefsTheme]

Feeling like you have to defend your taste now, eh? Grow up.
you made how many posts about the tool album sucking, 3? 4? sounds like you're the one who needs affirmation.
