This thread has gotten off to a pretty good start. I don't think all the hand-wringing is called for, however normal it is.
― _Rudipherous_, Tuesday, 29 January 2013 23:39 (eleven years ago) link
Not that my opinion should matter much since I don't normally end up listening to much music that would fit into this thread.
that isn't true. if shiina ringo's chestnut chlorine semen thingy album came out now it'd have about 300 posts dedicated to it right here, 150 of which my own

Lamp, I always felt bad about posting to your forestwave thread because I was never sure exactly what it was about besides "stuff that Lamp likes"
it was kinda an attempt at zoning in on the post-hipster zeitgeist, rolling off to the forest was an attempt at kinda head-nodding towards various emerging trends while also repping for big knut hamsun whos novels seemed to be part of the thing as well. thread didnt really turn out to be good for much although i think it was the first place that 'new for u' showed up on ilx, small distinctions i guess...
anyway david markson, spiritual poverty, early 80s wastelands, 'gaspard de le nuit' and roxy music playing in the background of parties, no one owns a laptop anymore, the do not touch them cassette on forced nostalgia, eugene ludins and disparate scando landlovers all went by unmemorialized, willing to start afresh with something less ambitious and less vague maybe the sound of icebergs melting idk

"Rolling..." was one of my favourite recent ILM threads because of the clear sense of an underlying curatorial vision. But because that vision felt so personal, I was never sure whether the stuff I posted really fit in.
Alternatively: my understanding is that this thread is a big tent and doesn't preclude more targeted explorations of any particular aesthetic.

on the experimental tip, you all should head over to my neck of the woods this weekend for the noisecapades. 5 minute sets on the ice.

"rolling phantom brain exchanges (are such fun) 2013" would be a good thread title
Event looks cool too!

― flopson, Wednesday, 30 January 2013 00:55 (eleven years ago) link
the only valid reason to change the thread title is that it is not sufficiently inviting to wackos who should be posting in it eg milton parker
― a sock of regals (Edward III), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 01:00 (eleven years ago) link
yeti mike posted this on facebook today. and the thread title does say "rock" so...anyway, i thought someone here might like it. cuz you guys love ty seagull right?

ilx indie rock fans might like this album too. i'm trying to be nicer to indie rock fans. my friend rob put it out. greenfield, ma's finest record label, sedimental (rob put out the first stars of the lid album so he's got space rock cred). sorry, 2012, but you probably didn't buy it. vinyl only, i think.

and me, apparentlyalso jon lewis
those are three pretty good reasons if i do say so myselfi would not have voluntarily read/clicked rock/indie/alt anything
― this customer is a jerk (La Lechera), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 15:17 (eleven years ago) link
and probably like a zillion other wonderful people who also would not feel partic compelled to click on rock/indie/alt first three words

I skipped it till I saw it mentioned on the end of year thread.

La Lechera, please come back to the rolling Afro-Latin thread (not that we're currently talking about much of anything, as usual). I was just kidding when I said death to indie cumbia. Sorry, don't mean to give off stalker vibes sending you anonymous suggestions to listen to the Zazen Boys. (Also, please send photos.)
― _Rudipherous_, Wednesday, 30 January 2013 16:28 (eleven years ago) link
Also, so what do you think this thread should be called? The best thing about this thread was its running spontaneous takeoff.
― _Rudipherous_, Wednesday, 30 January 2013 16:29 (eleven years ago) link
its like a rorschach test. the thread title.
― scott seward, Wednesday, 30 January 2013 16:31 (eleven years ago) link
who doesn't want to rock?
― congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 16:34 (eleven years ago) link
You didn't give off bad vibes! I voted for Potato Salad in the tracks poll because its name made me laugh every time I saw it.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see who hears the ringing batsignal coming from this thread. I think it should be called Potato Salad (not really)
― this customer is a jerk (La Lechera), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 16:36 (eleven years ago) link
That explains the mystery of the other vote.

like the time travel idea best of all suggestions, has my blessing
― imago, Wednesday, 30 January 2013 17:12 (eleven years ago) link
either that or 'rolling counterforce 2013'
the escape from temporal constraints in ed's title suggests a similar musical excursion
