ronan invoked himself at 18, sure, but still feels a little wrong to dig up history like that. especially with the search function so crippled.
the chemical brothers have a new a big beat song featuring the klaxons out.

when a group's entire rep is pretty much blog/mp3-derived it's kinda hard to take that too seriously. sorry but it's true. i mean of all the bands.

why do I feel like I'm playing Castlemania during most of these tracks? I mean, I guess they sampled Goblin's Argento soundtrack (at least according to wikipedia), but they really turned up the gothic horror synths on a few of these ("Valentine," "One Minute to Midnight" etc). Most of it sounds nothing like D.A.N.C.E. and everyhting like "Carpates," the only snoozer on their first single.

― lucas pine, Saturday, 26 May 2007 03:09 (seventeen years ago) link
um, right. video game-related typo or has it just been that long that I actually thought is was Castlemania? I kind of hope it's the latter...

considering you get down to like slint or whatever i cant imagine youre hating on this for being too corny hipster whatever
no it was 'stress'. i don't know who/what slint are/is

Ethan there is a fine art to calling The Lex out on his indie band faves and you are frankly rubbish at it, even Passantino is better than you.
As far as the blog house canon goes right now - Black Strobe > Simian Mobile Disco > Justice > Digitalism BUT the much-maligned MSTRKFT album from last year might be better than all of them.
'Stress' is awesome but it does kind of add credence to Justice's whole "we make music without really knowing how to" schtick because if they DID know how to do it they would have made the beat 1000 times more slamming than it actually is. As it happens, they end up with a pretty flaccid 'tic' noise.
― Matt DC, Sunday, 27 May 2007 23:58 (seventeen years ago) link
i disagree completely w/ that list
justice > blackstrobe >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> simian + digitalism
― moonship journey to baja, Sunday, 27 May 2007 23:59 (seventeen years ago) link
'blog house' as a term is going to keep pissing me off for the rest of the year probably. i'll just call it blog dance perhaps.

i haven't given up on it! it's still a more accurate term for much of this stuff.

i gotta say jess and other folks being into this doesn't surprise me really, seems like its what people had been hoping rock music would do, incorporating dance and electronic-ness and fun and relative populism and all that (although this might be contradicted by vahid's 'this is real dance' thing). i havent really listened beyond the singles but i don't really get out of this what i like about dance music so i donno, maybe i need to listen to the album and its like the dance ac/dc or something but for right now i'm happy letting this stuff blow by w/out jumping on board.
i dont mean to argue the 'not real dance' perspective ... i think thats kind of a silly argument and i'm in favor of all the things justice represent w/out actually enjoying the singles i've heard, or something
― deej, Monday, 28 May 2007 20:03 (seventeen years ago) link
it's like, i'll dance to this stuff when i hear it out, but that's more because i have v. limited going-out options here and it's better than not dancing if i'm in the dancing mood. but i can't be bothered to seek it out on my own, it just doesn't do for me what i like dance music to do
