I don't like really any of their records since 'Her Majesty' (edit: except the new one; it's really great), but 'The Crane Wife' is particularly offensive to me. And by that I mean it bugs the hell out of me.

It comes down to, which of these songs is more grating: is it 'The Perfect Crime' or that eleven minute bullshit about being eaten by a whale on 'Picaresque'? The answer is: 'The Perfect Crime'. But just barely.

It was a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect, a perfect criiiiime.

Yea.... I really hate that song too.

Crystal Castles - Lovers Who Uncover

Skip Spence - Oar
Hawksley Workman - For Him and the Girls
Kate Bush - Hounds of Love
Harmonium - Si On Avait Besoin d'une Cinquieme Saison

The Grateful Dead are also a pretty safe bet to be on my turn table most days.

Hounds of Love is so good. I've been introducing friends to Kate Bush every chance I get.

Yeah Kate bush is pretty cool. She's pretty perfect for my music sensibilities at times as she is among the best with marrying interesting (not all the time though) music with things I'm personally interested in. As I'm sure you can tell from my ~~rants~~ posts sometimes, songs like "Running up that Hill" (minus the god part) have a great deal of appeal to me. Here'a quote from her about it.

"I was trying to say that, really, a man and a woman, can't understand each other because we are a man and a woman. And if we could actually swap each other's roles, if we could actually be in each other's place for a while, I think we'd both be very surprised! [Laughs] And I think it would lead to a greater understanding. And really the only way I could think it could be done was either... you know, I thought a deal with the devil, you know. And I thought, 'well, no, why not a deal with God!' You know, because in a way it's so much more powerful the whole idea of asking God to make a deal with you. You see, for me it is still called "Deal With God", that was its title. But we were told that if we kept this title that it would not be played in any of the religious countries, Italy wouldn't play it, France wouldn't play it, and Australia wouldn't play it! Ireland wouldn't play it, and that generally we might get it blacked purely because it had God in the title"

Sounds like it! I love doing sequential tears through pieces of a bands catalog, though.

I don't do it that much. I spend so much time listening to "new" music, or "new to me" music, that sometimes I forget to give myself a day here and there to listen to stuff I actually like. The only other bands that come to mind that I can listen to all day are Wilco, and Kanye.

And I see you were listening to Here Comes the Indian earlier today. That was my late night drunk walk home selection last night (don't drink and drive kids, buy an Ipod instead, long drunken walks with music is gold).

I love this album! And I couldn't believe my ears when my girlfriend said
it was cheesy. >:(

I Dr. Garbanzoured she would like it even more than me... But she kept saying the singers voice didn't have enough inflection. She then took my Ipod and changed the song to REM's "Losing My Religion" ::)

I'm going to go read and check out these "Smith Westerns" and "Miniature Tigers" I keep hearing about.

Posted by Horned Gramma on Jan 23, 2011, 4:25pm

Miniature Tigers still suck. I was just verifying that yesterday.
