New Music

IRC = internet relay chat

it's a chat program that is predominantly used for file transfers. www.mirc.com is the program i use, but there are other ones as well. then if you want basic popular albums you can use www.ircspy.com or www.packetnews.com to search where they are.

it's a little complicated but i can explain further if you'd like.

and torrents take too long for me. and they dont always have the group releases i'm looking for.

Is Mercura an IRC program? I downloaded it at work but rarely use it.

The Blue Merle CD called "Burning in the Sun" is really good as welll. They are a little bit like coldplay.

Little bit? That guy was doing a flat out Chris Whatever (I hate Coldplay) impression. Coldplay sucks, but knockoff Coldplay is even worse.

Sorry to offend you...

Does anyone here listen to Magnet? They are really a terrific band and I suggest everyone to check them out.

I'll have to listen to them.

Bingo.

Check out "we have the facts and we're voting yes", it's better than every other death cab cd.

Y'all should check out Drive-By Truckers. Great southern-ish, 70s-ish rock band, new album "a blessing and a curse" just came out. I think you can download one of the songs at drivebytruckers.com for free but i'm not totally sure.

Anyone listen to got.radio.com? I've been listening to Indie Rock through them and have recently discovered two new bands that I like: Morningwood and Elbow (Elbow isn't that new but Morningwood is.). Wexy (I think it was him) was right, commercial radio is dead in NY. I got so tired of listening to the Jack FM station here. All they play is old fogey stuff. (And, I'm over 40!)

[Smithers]

a couple albums i've been listening to lately:

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - Don't You Fake It
regular k-rock brand rock: http://www.myspace.com/redjumpsuit

Hit the Lights - This Is a Stick-Up . . . Don't Make It a Murder
pop-punk: http://www.myspace.com/hitthelights

Forgive Durden - Wonderland
sorta poppy, but with a cool groove to it: http://www.myspace.com/forgivedurden

as well as the new Thursday and Head Automatica albums.

Satellite man. It's so worth it.

Is the new Thursday album good?

Personally, I have been listening to The Mars Volta's new cd called Frances the Mute. I've had it for a few months, but been playing it a lot lately. It rocks hard.

I really got into TMV when Scabdates came out a couple years ago. They are a little out there, but definitely my style.

See! I'm not the only one! TMV owns all prog-rock. If you like Frances, you have to go back and grab Deloused in the Comatorium. A new one (tentatively titled Helena) will be dropping at some point this year.

i dont think i like it as much as their older stuff right now, but i said the same thing about the newest Thrice album and now i think it's amazing. so i'll give it time.

[SheffRocks11]

If anyone likes slower alternative music...

The New CD "We Were Here" by Joshua Radin is really good.

[twinks34]

The Lay Lady Lay cover with Gemma Hayes is so, so beautiful.

[Smithers]

this weekend i was lucky enough to get my hands on the new Rise Against album, The Sufferer and the Witness. it's the best album i've heard all year. if you like punk music, you have to hear this.

[BrooklynBotz]

Get the new TV on the Radio album, Return To Cookie Mountain. They're a local (NYC) band that are pretty much in a league of their own.

I LOVE TV on the Radio. I am glad to hear that there no albums is good. I agree that they are in a league of their own.

[THEBOSS84]

Whoever likes the Red Hot Chili Peppers has to download thier new song called SNOW - amazing

[MisterNovember]

Not that anyone cares, but Brandston - Earthquakes and Sharks is my new fave song.

They're playing a free show in Prospect Park in Brooklyn on June 30th. Which is also my birthday so I couldn't ask for much more.

The Angels and Airwaves CD is coming out this week... anyone else excited?

thanks to the internet i've had it for a couple weeks now. it's not really my thing though. maybe because i was never a big Blink/Tom Delonge/whatever fan, it just doesn't really appeal to me.
