Been listening to the new Sleep Token album on repeat this morning - 'Take Me Back To Eden'.

I didn't think it could live up to the hype of the singles, but it does. Definitely an AOTY contender already.

Jazzmatazz by Guru. Probably the greatest ever hip-hop album turns 30 today….. and I feel old AF.

On the same theme, I've been listening to The Color and the Shape today (on its 26th birthday!). The album that really blew up the Foo Fighters.

What a great album this is. Been listening to it all weekend.

Had the new damned album, darkadelic, on a few times and it's really good. Much more uptempo than their last one.

Propagandhi been getting some heavy play recently as well, can't think of many bands that have put out such consistently great albums as them. Every single one of their 7 albums absolutely rocks.

Meant to ask you what you thought about Vandals drummer joining the Foos?

Great acquisition for them IMO.

I keep listening to it and I keep discovering things I never noticed on the previous listens.

Their ability to seemlessly transition from jazz elements, to RnB style flows, the genuinely heavy, metalcore/deathcore breakdowns in places is sheer genius.

The title track and Ascensionism are works of art.

I'm not much of a fan of the Foo fighters but josh freese is an exceptional drummer. I've seen him with the vandals quite a few times going back early 90s through to mid 2000s and he was very good. The vandals were really good but i wasn't that impressed with some of their stuff after Hitler bad, vandals good.

Headphones on , Combat Rock from The Clash as I down a few Ardbegs. Life really is good.

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths on the turntable atm with a few pints of Vitamin T from the PD machine. Wife is out with her pals, just me and the cats. Chuffed.

Great choice .

Rancid, tomorrow never comes has had a few plays and is pretty decent. Much better than their last few outings. Also new albums by the Hard-Ons and Bollweevils which are sounding good on first listen.

Still listening to propagandhi a lot though, I doubt I'll ever tire of them.

No danger, he has a couple of decent songs from ghost writers, nothing else

***Lancs Harp*** · 08-06-2023 05:43 PM

Foxbase Alpha by St Etienne. Been a while since i listened to them. Good stuff.

**degenerated** · 09-06-2023 09:55 PM

Anthem for a new tomorrow by Screeching Weasel. It's 30 years old now but still a great album for those who like that heavily Ramones influenced snotty 90s punk rock.

My vynil copy arrived today. Its a decent enough album, but it's not great. I get the feeling right now that, especially with Lars, they are doing their best work outside Rancid and this recording is almost a chore. Fear that they might have peaked with "Out come..." and "Dominoes " . Still a great live band.

I think it's been their best work since Rancid 5, I didn't really like any of the albums after that. I think it's a pretty solid album and I love new American, although it sounds more like an early swingin utters song than a rancid one

For me it will always be the first 3 rancid albums that are their best work.

I haven't heard of Lars stuff with last resort as I really don't like them so not sure about that. I was pretty impressed with Tim Armstrong's last album, a poets life.

Today has been much more of a screeching weasel day. IMG20230610120034.jpg

I've struggled with the new album too if I'm honest. I figured I just maybe wasn't in the mood for it but I find it a bit of a slog listening to it.

***Dalianwanda*** · 11-06-2023 10:38 AM

At the moment listening to Overmono ‘Good Lies’ which is some gloriously summery electronica

Single on loop is ‘Set The Roof On Fire’ by Hudson Mohawk & Nicki Nair…..Bonkers but oh so catchy

What are you listening to?

I'm currently in the kitchen chopping some salad and listening to my wife asking me if she's ever gonna get fed today.

Iron Chic - you can't stay here. A bit more emo than my usual stuff but I do like them.

24 Songs by the Wedding Present. Dave Gedge and co have served up some of the best songs the band have ever done.

Bizarro is up there with one of my favourite albums.

My first gig was then at the Cav back in 80’s.

**degenerated** · 02-07-2023 06:15 PM

Sometimes You Have To Look Back by Rivalry. Melodic hardcore from Liverpool punk stalwart, Mark Magill, with his latest project.

https://youtu.be/1dYIlZG9bEw

Also currently digging Clayface album Ailments. Manchester band who have taken the vibe from 90s US skate punk and added in a touch of UK stuff like Snuff. Decent debut album from a band who have been around a while now.

My late wife Margaret's favorite band.

***Hiber-nation*** · 10-07-2023 10:20 AM

Pretty gutted at home bad the new Jenny Lewis album is. It's like she's turned herself into a 20 year old pop star. Getting rave reviews as well which seems to confirm that I am getting old...😭

**Fiddich** · 10-07-2023 06:56 PM

a few of my favorites often listened to.
