I've liked this guy lately, he's mostly into Michigan stuff but also branches out. A lot of hardcore, screamy sludgy crusty to whiny and emo. I've found some good tracks there.

but i mean you can say "i would enjoy more poppy music" but then how do you know specifically what albums to get?

(not being hostile btw -- just that i know you know how to find stuff you like. you just have to want to look around for it)
like i read that flying nun book and then have gone down a rabbit hole of flying nun, which has been v enjoyable! i listen to "crush" by tall dwarfs every single time i get into the car and it's like a ritual now.

also lastfm radio stations are good for finding new things, better than pandora because there's more international music ime

I would like to get back into the habit of exploring music that is not primarily new and buzzed-about stuff, but there is so much of that stuff that I am rarely left wanting. Sometimes I just think, like, what if I am a huge fan of (say) Rickie Lee Jones, and I just don't know it yet?
― Bon Ivoj (jaymc), Friday, 6 January 2012 21:39 (1 year ago) Permalink
Yeah, there's a century of music that just happens not to have paid publicity at the momen, ando gets drowned out by the rest.

I think I was better about digging into old stuff during the couple of years when I was pretending to be a Music Critic.

would anyone want to do pub quiz tomorrow?

Oh man that sounds like fun, but given that our little guy decided this week that any sort of consistent sleep pattern is out of the question, I'm not sure I can really ditch my wife with a screaming baby until we get things a little more back on track. This weekend was awful, I think we each got a grand total of 7 hours all weekend.

this week is really busy for me or else I'd be totally in for pub quiz, R and I stopped at the Globe for a beer on Saturday and I was reminiscing a bit about past quizzes

I do not know about Veronica Falls but I will check them out. Thanks!
Also, good luck ZS! My fingers are crossed, just for you.
No pub quiz for me. I'm sick. Blech.
Random: someone mispronounced my last name like Bear-goes today (fluent English speaker, no discernible accent). That is a new one.

Jenny, you will like them. I bet Nick and Sarah would too. Anyone who likes super catchy UK pop with girl singer and post-punk moments.
