Portishead - Third

Isn't it a crappy transcode that cuts off 30 seconds early on each track? I've been waiting for this album for 10 years. I can wait a couple weeks more.

Some, but not all of the tracks do cut out before they are over. If you are a purist I would certainly wait but the quality is decent and it's a fantastic record upon first listen.

Portishead - Third

fucking masterpiece. i heard it while on the subway today and it was one of the best times i've had with my ipod as a soundtrack for doing some cool walking. also, i think the artwork is brilliance. favourite song so far is 'the rip'.

hey cron wat do u think of the new destroyer?

cron · March 08, 2008, 05:29:12 PM

i didn't like it. the songwriting's not as legendary as in rubies or streethawk. so far this year, i've only liked british sea power's , nick cave's and this baby.

i'm gonna agree with you that it's not nearly as good as rubies (i don't think your blues or streethawk either though and those are both great) but i still like every song on the album.

New Malkmus...

Avoided downloading it out of some sort of strange indifference, but bought it on street date... what the fuck was I thinking? Album shreds. Reminded me of everything good SM and (various) Co. have ever done. and still feels new.

NC - Dig!!!...

What everyone else has said plus some.

Jason Isbell's solo album...

Took me a while to purchase. 'S alright. Real good, but no DBT.

Like cron, I do not think this is up to Dan Bejar's past excellence. It's just not as engaging as his other albums. It seems like he's releasing b-sides from Rubies. However, it's still Destroyer, so I like some of it quite a lot.

FabricLive 39 - DJ Yoda

Any mix that starts with Violent Femmes (Blister In The Sun) and goes on to feature Ice Cube, Handsome Boy Modeling School and Bell Biv Devoe can't be all bad.

I stumbled upon a small treasure trough of pretty good music, and it's the fucking local library of all places! I checked out Pavement's Slanted & Enchanted: Luxe & Reduxe, Mogwai's Mr. Beast, We Are the Pipettes, The Stage Names, Broken Social Scene, and a few others.

Bought Daydream Nation for pretty cheap, and got

used for $7.99. The deluxe version. Good stuff.
