I really enjoyed this album by Algiers. A great blend of aggression and soulfulness, guitars and synths.
Went to see them in Brighton last week… well worth the freezing cold ride there and back.

I was sooo upset when my parents wouldn't let 16-year old me go to a Dead show in 1995. It was a month before Jerry died, too.

Major bummer! The music still lives on though, both in past recordings and current tours with new members.

For any hip hoppers into Dre, this is brilliant.

Apparently Tool's new album is coming out this year. I'll believe it when I see it, but I'm pretty excited.

I think they've said that for about the last 3 years.  But apparently Tom Morrello has listened to finished tracks (music only) so there is progress.  I saw them last summer at the Gorge and they had a few teasers sprinkled in the set.

New APC album this year is confirmed though.

Such a good band and so influential in the early 90s. They helped shape the sound of post-hard-core even though Quicksand are the darlings of that legacy

I have Bi-polar Disorder. It's not always easy. Julian Baker will break your heart if you relate to that

Speaking of Quicksand, their new album is fantastic.

This thread needs some love!

Today was a strange music day.
I was working with notes from Albrecht Dürer and this picture came into my mind.

Yesterday was the release party of a local band called Long Distance Calling.
Catched the limited LP and Headphones on at the moment. Love this Sound!
Always wondering about my different music influences over the years .

@Aetas Nice Selection.

And because you can never have too much Fugazi:

been on a major Reverend Bizarre, Lord Vicar, and Cardinal's Folly kick this past couple of weeks…doom over the world

Fu Manchu released a new album today.

[Stuart.T]

@Filthy 21/23oz junkie  I always really tried to like Fu Manchu but never quite got it. This is blasphemy in some circles, but I feel the same about Kyuss. If either band ever had ever had  Matt Pike in them, well…
