Journey - Dream After Dream
Columbia, 1980 Rock, Soundtrack 1. "Destiny" 2. "Snow Theme" 3. "Sand Castles" 4. "A Few Coins" 5. "Moon Theme" 6. "When the Love Has Gone" 7. "Festival Dance" 8. "The Rape" 9. "Little Girl" Out of place in Journey's large body of work and completely dissimilar to their cheesy, radio-friendly hits, "Dream After Dream" is the soundtrack to a Japanese film of the same name. Vocals are sparse, but the vocal tracks are actually my favorite. If you're a casual Journey fan who hasn't heard of this, give it a listen. And if you think you hate Journey, you may be in for a surprise. Dream After Dream Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Marvin Gaye - What's Going On
Label: Tamla, 1971 Genre: Soul Side A 1. "What's Going On" – 3:52 2. "What's Happening Brother" – 2:44 3. "Flyin' High (In the Friendly Sky)" – 3:49 4. "Save the Children" – 4:03 5. "God is Love" – 1:49 6. "Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)" – 3:14 Side B 1. "Right On" – 7:31 2. "Wholy Holy" – 3:08 3. "Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)" – 5:26 Most have heard one or two of the singles from this album, notably the title track, but the entire thing is truly remarkable. What's Going On is considered one of the greatest albums of all time and was certainly a landmark soul recording. This is actually the Deluxe Edition; the first nine tracks (listed above) comprise the original album. What's Going On There's nowhere I can't reach. |
The Flaming Lips - At War With the Mystics
Label: Warner Bros, 2006 Genre: Psychadelic/Space Rock 1. "The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song (With All Your Power)" – 5:22 2.

At War With the Mystics This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

They're definitely more into indie at this point, but with a song named after The Soft Machine, they're awesome in my book. Spoiler:
Eisenhower How ya doing, buddy?

Pharoahe Monch - Internal Affairs
Label: Rawkus Records, 1999 Genre: Hip-Hop 1. Intro 2. Behind Closed Doors 3. Queens 4. Rape 5. Simon Says 6. Official 7. Hell 8. No Mercy 9. Right Here 10. The Next Shit 11. The Ass 12. The Light 13. God Send 14. The Truth 15. Simon Says Remix Will's Comments: I was kinda surprised that no one responded to my comment in the Hip-Hop thread...but then again, since his release this year, Pharoahe Monch hasn't put out an album since 1999. His delivery is so good he didn't feel the need to put out another record, so he's been writing for other artists ever since. This is his first solo release, which is out of production. I also *highly* recommend the new album, Desire, which should be very easy to get, and is quite different than Internal Affairs. I'll put it up if requested. Spoiler:
Internal Affairs Rocky Votolato - Makers Label: Barsuk Records, 2006 Genre: Indie/Singer-Songwriter 1. "White Daisy Passing" – 3:07 2. "Portland Is Leaving" – 2:45 3. "The Night's Disguise" – 3:17 4. "She Was Only in It for the Rain" – 3:09 5. "Uppers Aren't Necessary" – 2:55 6. "Wait Out the Days" – 2:43 7. "Streelights" – 2:29 8. "Tennessee Train Tracks" – 2:25 9. "Goldfield" – 3:32 10. "Tinfoil Hats" – 2:39 11. "Where We Left Off" – 5:38 12. "Makers" – 3:18 Will's Comments: I heard "White Daisy Passing" because of the iTunes free songs thing on Facebook. It's just different than everything I usually listen to, and I really like his voice. Spoiler:
Makers I was speaking idiomatically.

"Comforting Sounds" – 8:58 Comments: I included the single "Special" from their latest album just for kicks, because it's what initially drew me to the band. Spoiler:
Frengers What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Beirut - Gulag Orkestar
Label: Ba Da Bing, 2006 Genre: Indie/Folk/World 1. "Gulag Orkestar" – 4:38 2. "Prenzlauerberg" – 3:46 3. "Brandenburg" – 3:38 4. "Postcards from Italy" – 4:17 5. "Mount Wroclai (Idle Days)" – 3:15 6.

"After the Curtain" – 2:54 Comments: I guess I'm just continuing my trend of putting up an older album once I realize that a new one's out. I heard the title track while watching the last lunar eclipse. It was weird shit. Think Miranda, That Ghost Just Isn't Holy Anymore. Spoiler:
Gulag Orkestar FELIPE NO |

Wait for the Wintertime - 4:52 9. Worms - 4:07 10. Waves - 4:57 11. Red Cave - 4:59 This was a bit more obscure when I bought it. =p Spoiler:
All Hour Cymbals There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Chick Corea and Bela Fleck - The Enchantment
Genre: Jazz Fusion, Bluegrass Year: 2007 Label: Concord Records Track List 1. Señorita 2. Spectacle 3. Joban Dna Nopia 4. Mountain 5. Children's Song #6 6. A Strangle Romance 7. Menagerie 8. Waltse For Abby 9. Brazil 10. The Enchantment 11. Sunset Road Review Spoiler:

John Legend - Once Again
Label: G.O.O.D. Music/Columbia/Sony Urban Release: 2006 Genre: Contemporary R&B Track Listing: 1. Save Room 2. Heaven 3. Stereo 4. Show Me 5. Each Day Gets Better 6. P.D.A. (We Just Don't Care) 7. Slow Dance 8. Again 9. Maxine 10. Where Did My Baby Go 11. Maxine's Interlude 12. Another Again 13. Coming Home I can't say that I find what passes for R&B these days the least bit interesting, but this guy really caught my ear. It was easy to dismiss him back when he was getting a lot of mainstream buzz, but now I'm hooked. Obligatory review: Spoiler:
Once Again Omar Rodriguez-Lopez - Se Dice Bisonte, No Bufalo Label: Gold Standard Laboratories Release: 2007 Genre: Jazz Fusion, Experimental Track Listing: 1. The Lukewarm 2. Luxury of Infancy 3. Rapid Fire Tollbooth 4. Thermometer Drinking the Bussness of Turnstiles 5. Se Dice Bisonte, No Búfalo 6. If Gravity Lulls, I Can Hear the World Pant 7. Please Heat This Eventually 8. Lurking About in a Cold Sweat (Held Together by Venom) 9. Boiling Death Request a Body to Rest Its Head On 10. La Tiranía de la Tradición Notable track would of course be "Rapid Fire Tollbooth", which showed up as the heavier "Goliath" on The Mars Volta's latest album. Spoiler:
Se Dice Bisonte, No Bufalo The Mars Volta - The Bedlam in Goliath Label: Universal, Gold Standard Laboratories Release: 2008 Genre: Progressive Rock Track Listing: 1. Aberinkula 2. Metatron 3. Ilyena 4. Wax Simulacra 5. Goliath 6. Tourniquet Man 7. Cavalettas 8. Agadez 9. Askepios 10. Ouroboros 11. Soothsayer 12. Conjugal Burns Bonus tracks: 1. Back Up Against the Wall (Circle Jerks) 2. Birthday (The Sugarcubes) 3. Candy and a Currant Bun (Pink Floyd) 4. Pulled to Bits (Siouxsie & The Banshees) 5. Memories (Soft Machine) 6. Things Behind the Sun (Nick Drake) Fucking awesome. The third listen solidified it as my new favorite Volta album. I've included all the bonus covers, some of 'em are cool (Soft Machine and Nick Drake!). Just for laughs, let's see what Pitchfork has to say... Spoiler:
Get fucked by Goliath I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

In a Dive 9. 5 Dollars This is the second album I'm putting up from this outfit. It's good instrumental rock...duh. Not a lot of info out there though, so bear with the review. Spoiler:
Battle of the Loons The Parlor Mob - And You Were a Crow Label: Roadrunner Records Release: 2008 Genre: Rock Track Listing: 1. Hard Times 2. Dead Wrong 3. Everything You're Breathing For 4. The Kids 5. When I Was an Orphan 6. Angry Young Girl 7. Carnival of Crows 8. Real Hard Headed 9. Tide of Tears 10. My Favorite Heart to Break 11. Bullet 12. Can't keep No Good Boy Down I had been anticipating this for a couple years, based on what they had on their myspace page ("Bullet", "Tide of Tears"). Imagine The Mars Volta doing straight rock 'n' roll. I bought it on iTunes, I don't think physical copies are being sold yet. Spoiler:
Bite the Bullet More coming... I was speaking idiomatically.

"Resolution" – 2:09 I thought someone had this up, but it's not indexed...I just bought the CD (as much as this shit demands vinyl), so I guess I'll post it anyway. Review (which I did not bother reading): Spoiler:
Birds of Fire Faust - Faust Label: Polydor Release: 1971 Genre: Progressive Rock Track Listing: 1. "Why Don't You Eat Carrots?" (Faust) – 9.31 2. "Meadow Meal" (Faust, Sosna) – 8.02 3. "Miss Fortune" (Faust) – 16.35 ...because we all need a little krautrock. Spoiler:
Make a pact with the devil! The Soft Machine - Fourth Label: Columbia Release: 1971 Genre: Jazz Track Listing: 1. "Teeth" (Mike Ratledge) 9:15 2. "Kings and queens" (Hugh Hopper) 5:02 3.

"Virtually part 4" (Hugh Hopper) – 3:23 Maybe a weird choice for your first Soft Machine album. But it fits with the other shit in this post. Spoiler:

Vals de la Despedida 8. La Lucah Sigue 9. Where Is the Love? 10. Learn to Let Go 11. Grenudos 12. Look Sharp 13. Paz y Alegria I realized there's an extra copy of the first track in there. Deal. The following is not a review, because reviews are boring. The slightly awkward English on the inset of the CD, on the other hand, is not. Spoiler:
Andele! FELIPE NO |
Anathallo - Floating World
Label: Nettwerk Release: 2006 Genre: Indie Track Listing: 1. "Ame" – 0:49 2. "Genessaret (Going Out Over 30,000 Fathoms of Water)" – 5:32 3. "Hoodwink" – 5:48 4. "By Number" – 5:08 5. "Dokkoise House (With Face Covered)" – 6:00 6. "Hanasakajijii (Four: A Great Wind, More Ash)" – 4:44 7. "Hanasakajijii (One: The Angry Neighbor)" – 3:10 8. "Inu (Howling)" – 1:20 9.

"Cuckoo Spitting Blood" – 3:05 14. "Kasa No Hone (The Umbrella's Bones)" – 2:08 It's taking a lot to catch my ear lately, but these guys really did... Spoiler:
Floating World Woven Hand - Consider the Birds Label: Sounds Familyre Release: 2004 Genre: Alt-Country Track Listing: 1. "Sparrow Falls" – 4:45 2. "Bleary Eyed Duty" – 4:30 3.

"Into the Piano" – 3:38 I decided I had to find something likable in country music. This was not what I expected. It's alternative, that's for sure. The review sums it up pretty well...I didn't even notice the religious aspect until I read it. Spoiler:
Consider the Birds Blu & Exile - Below the Heavens Label: Sound in Color Release: 2007 Genre: Hip-Hop Track Listing: 1. My World Is... 2. The Narrow Path 3. Simply Amazin' (Steel Blazin') 4. Juice N' Dranks (Featuring Ta'Raach) 5. In Remembrance 6. Blu Collar Workers 7. Dancing in the Rain 8. First Things First (Featuring Miguel Jontel) 9. No Greater Love 10. Good Life (Featuring Aloe Blacc and Joseph) 11. Soul Rising 12. Cold Hearted (Featuring Miguel Jontel) 13. Below The Heavens Pt. 1 14. Below The Heavens Pt. 2 15. I Am... This is the kind of stuff that makes hip-hop one of my favorite genres. Blu's delivery and Exile's production are a match made in heaven (ha ha). Spoiler:
Below the Heavens Thomas Dybdahl - ...That Great October Sound Label: CCAP/EMI Release: 2002 Genre: Pop/Rock Track Listing: 1. "From Grace" 2. "All's Not Lost" 3. "That Great October Sound" 4. "Life Here Is Gold" 5. "Tomorrow Stays The Same" 6. "Postulate" 7. "Adelaide" 8. "John Wayne" 9. "Love's Lost" 10. "Dreamweaver" 11. "Outro" More proof that Norwegians are good at music. =P Spoiler:
That Great October Sound What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
