Interesting that someone should mention "Court and Spark", as there is actually a band named after that album (I guess that's where they got the name anyway).

The Court and Spark is from San Francisco and I haven't been able to listen much to them, but "National Lights" is a fantastic song that I think a lot of people on this board would like. It's downloadable on Audiogalaxy.

I bought `Lifted or The story is in the soil, keep your ears to the ground´ by Bright Eyes a few days ago. It totally blew my mind.

hey o, bright eyes is tourin holland in august... oh and if you're in for a last minute NY trip you might wanna check out the bowery ballroom on sunday ;)

[Oz]

Ehm, NY, well, I have debts already, so I guess I'll just wait for Augsut. But thanks for the advice!  :)

Brian Jonestown Massacre

[Pinte]

Did I post here before without mentioning Freakwater? Think i did. So I'll do it now: Freakwater. With my apologies to Jim James (and Will Oldham), Catherine Ann Irwin is my favorite Louisville musician.

Her solo album from last year is amazing too.

[peanut butter puddin surprise]

Ouch.  But hey, everyone is entitled to their opinion...

Jim and the boys might be the most important Louisville export since Louisville Slugger or Muhammad Ali, IMHO.  

[bad bad leroy brown]

*cough* Peewee Reece  *cough*  *cough*

[hipkink]

Peewee Reece was from Louisville? That's awesome! I met Maury Wills once... Let's see... Sacramento has the Deftones, 7 Seconds, Tom Hanks, Molly Ringwald, and Papa Roach. I should've just mentioned Tom Hanks and Molly Ringwald. I'm kinda ashamed about the rest. Although the new Deftones record isn't THAT bad.. :-/ The good thing about being a musician in this town is that you don't have to do much to be different than everything else. That said, I'm now listening to -
Gusto - No Evil Star
Smokey Robinson & the Miracles
T. Rex - Electric Warrior (Re-issue)
Bonnie Prince Billy
Bob Dylan - Nashville Skyline
The Tindersticks
The Black Heart Procession - Amore del Tropico
Adorable - Against Perfection
The Pastels - Truckload of Trouble.
Hey! Did you guys notice that I didn't list ANY 80's POP? Finally! uh.... but I listened to New Order's "Substance" yesterday... damn.

[lfish]

For the moment I'm listening to:

Neil Young: On the beach (to me, his best album)
Stache (belgian group): thee without sin, throw the first stone
The Doors: Without a safety net
Bonnie prince billy: I see a darkness (which is not true, but hey it's a fantastic record)
Loudon Wainwright: History
Tom Waits: Invitation to the blues

But I think I'll start digging those out metallica tunes again, I'm in the mood for some good old speed metal.

[peanut butter puddin surprise]

Burning Brides, Fall of the Plastic Empire

Led Zeppelin, anything.  I've got a cravin' for all things Led these days.  Gonna run out and get How the West Was Won since it seems so cool...

[plank10]

I don't think anyone mentioned these bands yet which is just wrong

The Microphones
Johnny Vanderslice
Death Cab For Cutie
The Postal Service (I can't stop listening to this)

[Oz]

Tons of R.E.M., `Road apples´ by The Tragically Hip and the new John Cale EP, `5 tracks´ wich is really good. Check that one out!

[Oz]

Hey, nolan, with all due respect, but give it a rest on The Jayhawks, will you? I'm sure they're great, but we don't need 6 topics to get it, man.

[Oz]

I'm sorry, that wasn't really a mellow post.  ;)
But man...
