Hopefully this thread will deliver.

WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO THREAD...

...and havent you already been laughed off of this forum? You are a joke.

Hey buddy!

What are you listening to thread...involves songs...not whole cd's.

oh.. one genre

post punk:

joy division
this heat
pere ubu
the fall
wire
CARDIACS
james chance & the contortions
mission of burma
flipper

i've been obsessed with this genre as of late.. so fucking underrated it hurts, TONS of music has branched off from it, including new wave, gothic, industrial, dream pop, shoegaze, indie.. pretty much laid the groundwork of music today

flipper sucks.
but joy division, wire, and mission of burma are awesome

i've been really into the whole 80's indie movement (independent labels, not assholes in cumberbunds playing one note a minute)

Minutemen's Double Nickles on the Dime

Sonic Youth's Daydream Nation

Dinosaur Jr's Where You Been

Embrace's selftitled (Ian MacKaye's Embrace, not the shitty new band named Embrace)

Fugazi...everything by them, but mostly 13 Songs and Repeater

Big Black's The Hammer Party

anything Black Flag

mostly stuff featured in Our Band Could Be Your Life

the fall > most

For a first time listener, Bug is superior to Where You Been....Even Green Mind is, but its pretty much just j mascis....

More post/punk

Gang Of Four
U2 (War/Boy/October)
The Sound
The Pixies

bauhaus
television
public image ltd
au pairs

some other gooders

Thanks anti, I have been actually looking for some down tempo stuff. Ever hear of Govinda?
