Really loved Les Arts Florissants. Good to see they haven't changed their style.
Like I always say" If it ain't Baroque, don't fix it!" HAHAHAHAHAHAHA I REALLY SAID THAT! |

Touche Amore - Is Survived by 7.5/10
I like them, but, the vocalist's voice is somewhat monotonous, and gets tiresome after awhile. |

It has been quite a while since I last posted any new albums that I've listened to; I can't be arsed naming them all, so just the four in the last week or so.
Dennis Russell Davies/Vienna RSO/Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra - Philip Glass: Symphony 2 7.5/10 (I really like the symphony itself, which I would give an 8.5/10, but the other pieces bore me somewhat) Patricia Petibon/Paavo Jarvi/Orchestre de Paris/Choeur de l'Orchestra de Paris - Poulenc: Stabat Mater/Gloria/Litanies a la Vierge Noire 8.5/10 (I wish there was more Patricia, but you can't fault the music) Brand New - The Devil and God are Raging inside Me 7.5/10 Frank Sinatra - In the Wee Small Hours 8/10 |

the lawrence arms - metropole 8/10
really like this record. feels like familiar lawrence arms territory with a few additions to the formula. perhaps i expected a bit more after such a long time between full lengths, but i'm not at all disappointed. |

ok so i got high and really listened to this with some damn headphones. some pretty awesome stuff on there. a definite continued evolution for them, especially on tracks like "the ymca down the street from the clinic" and "paradise shitty." maybe an 8.4 now. but i'll let you know after a few more listens.

Tyler, The Creator - Bastard
I accidentally stumbled across the song "Bastard" while looking for another song, and I really dug it. Had some time on my hands today, so I threw the whole album on in the background. I really dig the lyrics and flow through most of the album. While it was impressive that he was only 17/18 when this album was made AND he made his own beats, some of those beats left a bit to be desired. They hit in nice places, but they're missing SOMETHING in the middle fairly often. Still, an enjoyable listen for a hip hop head. 8/10 Favorite track: "Bastard" |

Been listening to a bootleg live CD of GG Allin. It is mostly his more country sounding stuff. I wish GG had done more stuff like that. And focused less on the shock stuff. When he wasn't trying to shock people he put out some good to great music. |
