It is superriffic!! I get to hear all of those great 80's and early 90's bands that I loved like the Cure, the Stone Roses, the Ocean Blue, the Specials, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Erasure, Berlin, Bauhaus, and so many more I'm nearly wetting myself listening to it now. Right now it's the Cure's "10:15 Saturday Night" .... SUH-WEET!! And on another note, it looks like I'm ...... (see below)
Modest Mouse - The Lonesome Crowded West
What essential indie rock album are you?

Please tell me what album you are. I figured with my luck I might come out with an album like Ruben Stoddard's "Things I Like To Eat" or Ashley Simpson's "Buy This Because My Sister Is Famous", but my luck held out for once!!

I am Belle & Sebastian's "If You're Feeling Sinister"....I have NO idea what that is!
I was Pavement's "Slanted and Enchanted." I wanted to be Slint's "Spiderland" because they're from my hometown. (Louisville, not Vegas)
Hey, I'm Modest Mouse - The Lonesome Crowded West too! That's cool. I think. I don't know who Modest Mouse is. I didn't even understand half the questions on that quiz. I think I'm old.
I am:
Bonnie Prince Billy - I See A Darkness
...sounds warm and fuzzy.
Hey yournamehere, I got Slint's "Spiderland" (we can trade if you want). I've never heard of them, but now I'll have to go look and listen.
I am also "I See a Darkness" by Bonnie Prince Billy. Perhaps I should check it out?
Lindsay-
Belle and Sebastian are a pretty decent band. Sorta mellowish almost in an indie Air Supply sorta way
YNH-
Sweet call. I did like Pavement's "Cut Your Hair" .. good tune. I'll have to admit, I've heard of Slint but haven't actually heard their music
Cammie-
Good to see you back!! Missed ya!! Glad you got a kick out of the album title.
Brooke-
YOu can go to Launch.com and check out some Modest Mouse videos. They had that song like last summer "Float On" or "Ocean Breathes Salty" that got quite a bit of airplay
Andi-
I love the avatar! Sweet!!!!
JHD-
So you'll trade with YNH but not trade a candy bar we got at work today with me? J/K ... I'll just come steal yours later today
Alan-
Not really sure. I don't know Bonnie Prince Billy. It could be worth a listen!
Bonnie Prince Billy is a guy named Wil Oldham who also records music under the names "Palace" and "Palace Brothers." He's also from Louisville and in fact took the picture for the cover of the "Spiderland" album.
Will's a talented guy, but you have to overlook the fact that he comes from an affluent home in an upper middle-class section of Louisville but pretends to be a hillbilly when he sings.
belle and sebastian
and i'm dl'ing it now from limewire ;)
i forgot - i've been listening to woxy vintage too. so if you hear blue monday it might just be cuz i requested it!
Devil, sorry about that.
But A) you never asked me to trade my Twix and B) it's chocolate, which means it got eaten WAY before you ever got around to posting that comment, or even thinking about posting that comment.
It's amazing to me that people have become famous just for commentating on those VH1 shows. No one knows Hal Sparks from Queer as Folk, they know him as the guy that's always on VH1. That blonde chick with the glasses and that really doofy but funny guy with the big poufy dark hair? Who are they? Yapping on VH1 is their whole job. Ahhh, who am I kidding. I'm just jealous. That must be the greatest job in the world!!!
I just wish they'd get rid of that assclown, Donal Logue. I think he thinks if he keeps talking, he'll eventually say something funny. Hasn't happened yet.
Hmm, by the way, I'm Modest Mouse too. Aside from "Float On", I couldn't name ya one of their songs. I think of all the possible results, I would identify most closely with Wilco.
I think they use the term "essential" a little loosely! ;)
Beckeye-
We'll go on those VH1 shows and someday people will blog about how annoying we are. It will be a blogger's wildest dream!
