The new Akron/Family release "Love is Simple" leaked yesterday It's less lo-fi than they're other released, and the cleanest sounding, not to say it doesn't have its fair share of instrumental freakouts. I think its worse than their s/t and split album, but better than meek warrior One of the better releases of the year so far

Congrats Bobby B)

QUOTE(The Critic @ Aug 11, 2007 -> 05:44 PM) The first time I heard LCD Soundsystem, it was that "Daft Punk" song, and I hated it. I never gave them a second thought after that. Well, I just heard a few songs off of Sound Of Silver, and I really like them. I've heard Watch The Tapes, North American Scum and All My Friends. Good stuff! one of the best albums of the year so far besides the 3 you mentioned, Get Innocuous! is also a big highlight on that album for me

If I were the fan who catches barry bonds 756th homerun I would give the ball back to bonds under the condition that he admits his steroid use

"The Stage Names"-Okkervil River's new album that was released today is one of the better albums of the year it's not as good as black sheep boy, but it's a good follow-up nonetheless

Then you will be able to clear all the balloons above you with the boomerang. After that, hit the orange spike balloons to activate the pacman (with the pacman, go counterclockwise from where you start, and you should be able to get all the balloons down there). After that, try to hit the purple balloon at the same time, having it fall on the bomb resting on the bouncy floor. Finally, all you should have to do is hit the bomb in the set at the top of the level. And for people that have never played this game, that paragraph has to look f***ing insane. thanks, I beat it

that had to be the most satisfying book I've read in a while I agree that the snape memory chapters were brilliant, as well as that in limbo kinda thing with dumbledore

QUOTE(bmags @ Jul 22, 2007 -> 10:44 AM) i hate kevin drew. Guy is such a drunken ass at all their shows. meh, he still makes great albums spirit if... is just as good as a bbs record

a bunch of broken social scene related material leaked this week the new Stars album "In Our Bedroom After the War" was good, but suffered from being a bit mushy/corny at times. the Kevin Drew album "Spirit If..." also leaked, but I haven't gotten around to listening to it yet.

just saw Sonic Youth perform Daydream Nation in its entirety it was just about as incredible as anyone could have guessed

didn't see the last movie, but I can't wait for the book I read the 4th book right when it came out, but didn't read the 5th and 6th for some reason until last week, were I read both of them in like 3 days combined so I'll be good to go for the last book

QUOTE(shipps @ Jul 11, 2007 -> 08:12 PM) Does anyone like the new Interpol album which is exactly like all the other old ones?I like it but shouldnt your progression as a band (especially when you have a good band) involve coming up with some new sounds and feeling? Definitely not progression, but I liked it more than antics

strawberry jam IMO is one of the best releases of the year so far, and is animal collective's best work

QUOTE(BobDylan @ Jul 5, 2007 -> 03:11 PM) Got the leak for Interpol's new album "Our Love to Admire" and it's okay. it was better than antics though

strawberry jam, the new animal collective cd has leaked

QUOTE(bmags @ Jun 30, 2007 -> 08:32 PM) i was really impressed with the ATP lineup, but the sat. sunday lineup of pitchfork was terribly average. saturday is very average however I'm excited about Menomena, Stephen Malkmus and the New Pornographers on sunday

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Jun 28, 2007 -> 08:58 PM) Now, I loved the Tyrus Thomas pick, don't get me wrong. But, I don't buy this at all. A few 20 point games doesn't mean anything. It's not like a high-90s fastball -- just because it was there once doesn't mean you can recreate it. (When did he have a 20-10 game, anyway? I can't find one in the game log.) Which is fine -- Thomas is good at what he does. But what he does is not scoring. alright he had a 23-9 and a 27-8, which is pretty good I agree that he won't have games like that every night, but we atleast know he can score more than the 5.2 he averaged

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Jun 28, 2007 -> 08:24 PM) So is Sefalosha going to become a stunningly accurate jump-shooter, as well? One year doesn't make you a different player. well Tyrus is a year more experienced he already showed that in his best moments he can be a 20-10 guy, so being a year more experienced his best moments will come out more often and consistently

I bet in a year we'll all be thanking Paxon for this pick sure he's not a scorer, but good defense and rebounding can't hurt us and with Tyrus Thomas a year older maybe he will develop into a low-post threat and honestly who's better? Hawes is a 7 footer with no rebounding ability. that guy should have been a defensive freak, and its a huge redflag as an athlete to not dominate people half his own size. Hawes would probably negate his offense by allowing too many people to score on him so even if Noah doesn't 100% fulfill our needs, he was the best pick to take

I like Noah regardless of everyone saying we have no low-post threat, I think Tyrus and Noah are a great combo that still have time to develop into low-post threats

Pitchfork completely sold out, and released the times for the performances http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/page/news/43...-times-revealed

I don't know if this is the right thread or not but I come to play some Wii tonight, and I see my dog pee'd all over it I don't know whether to laugh or cry at that

new interpol album leaked if anybody's interested I probably won't listen to it for a while though, seeing as I haven't even gotten around to antics yet
