1b) Growing on me
1b) Bootleg Peel sessions
5) Still amazing
14a) Jay-Z/Radiohead mash-up album. The novelty has worn off.

I just got given a litre bottle of Maker's Mark for Easter. GOOD TIMES.

I call this chart "guess whose Relapse sale package arrived"

1) Man, I am excited about tomorrow. RAAAAAAAAAAAAAYS! ON PINION!
2) I am beyond excited about seeing them at ATP.
3) a) Mostly Bambi's Dilemma. What an album. Praying for a London date around their Breeders' ATP show.
5) Still not completely comfortable with the new one. I don't think anything he's done is ever going to be as good as Madvillainy.
6) Stupendously brilliant on Monday. Whatever your thoughts of them on record, go see them live. The last 20 minutes was one of the best things I've seen for years.
8) Uh huh huh huh huh

1. Oneohtrix Point Never - 61
2. Pan.American - 50
3. Godspeed You! Black Emperor - 41

1. Betrayed in the Octagon is pretty incredible. Great stuff.
2. Wonderful new album from ex-Labradford dude...really moving stuff, his voice is absolutely beautiful.
3. Revisited their records and completely freaked out about how amazing they were. The end of Antennas to Heaven absolutely kills me every single time.
6. Amazing performance on Monday.
7. Acoustic doom - incredibly dark stuff but really restrained and quite elegant. Can't wait to see him live in July.

According to last.fm the only thing I've listened to all week is half of the 'Pains of Being Pure at Heart' LP. That can't be right. So, therefore, from memory, my list is:

1. Mastodon (loads and loads, including the classical re-working of Leviathan, nice)
2. Marissa Nadler (loads)
3. Mono (a fair amount)
4. Tim Hecker (lots)
5. Dalek (quite a lot) (proudly played to my hip-hop DJ neighbour guy. He says 'it's not hip-hop. It's rock music with some guy talking over the top :S)
6. P J Harvey (some)
7. Zu (a couple of spins of the new one)
8. Pains of Being Pure at heart (a bit)
9. Emeralds (probably 7 tracks - solar bridge (2) + what happened (5))
10. Nadja (about 3 or 4 tracks?)

1 The Cure 38
2 The Horrors 32
3 Slint 29
3 PJ Harvey 29
5 Beastie Boys 27
6 Bonnie 'Prince' Billy 26
7 Johnny Foreigner 23
8 Silver Jews 22
9 The Microphones 16
10 No Age 12
10 Joanna Newsom 12

1. Disintegration and Faith. Both £3 in Fopp. Bargain.
2. It really is as good as everyone's saying it is.
3.ii. White Chalk - an incredibly underrated album.
6. I like Beware. The last song is one of his best, imo.
7. Desperately want to see them live.
8. American Water.
9. Standard.
10.ii. Got Ys for £4 in danger's CD sale. So gorgeous. 'Emily' is pure poetry in every way. Late to the party, I know.

1. Hot Damn! kicks some serious arse. I can't stop listening to it.

5. Three members from Dog Fashion Disco, made a new band that sounds quite a lot like Dog Fashion Disco. That couldn't have possibly been a bad thing; and it's not.

7b. Everything about Hissing Fauna says I should hate it, but I really, really don't.

11a. Lateralus might just be the great album I was expecting, only time will tell.

3. I realy like The Shepherd's Dog although this seems to put me into the minority for some reason
6. Solo album from the guy from Peter, Bjorn and John, can you guess which one he is?
8. I got The Glow Pt. 2 a while ago after reccomendations on here, but it didn't do much for me. Seems as though I should have given it more time though, it's a nice li'l album

1. Pretty disapointing, Mike Mogis must be turning in his grave. People that arent conor singing, guitar solos. No. If you delete all the non conor songs then there are a few songs I dont hate that may grow on me (spoiled, white shoes, to all the lights in the window)

2. Only found out the gentlemans pact ep existed this week, in stark contrast to ^ it is great, better than anything on both albums.

5+6 Album of the year? probably

10b I don't see this band mentioned much, which is weird because they sound really accomplished, mixture of surf and dark folk, almost to professional sounding, theyre playing bush hall this week I may go

1 Four Tet mix of 'Great Day' = aceness.
3 S'okay, I like Glass (great drum sound) and Daniel, much of the rest is a bit 'second-rate Bjork'.
7 The 'Assault On Precinct 13' soundtrack, classic.
10 Very undervalued band, when they stick to psych-pop they're fantastic, not so sure about the more experimental tracks.

4. beautiful ambient stuff.

actually quite a few discoveries this week too.
2, 6, 11, 12b) all have ace new stuff. not heard the new doom yet.
3) really ace australian noise rock /post punk stuff. bit like shellac except more minimal and with lots more repetition. kinda hypnotic.
4) DATING COPS
10) annoyed that i didn't get into these guys earlier. only have their debut so far, i intend to amend this soon.
14) really nice, fun electo pop stuff. some of the tracks sound pretty lush too, reminds me of m83.
15a,b) after listening to the van pelt again, i went on a mission to get all the chris leo stuff i didn't already have. not many scrobbles, but they got a lot of mp3 player airtime.

for primavera:
using only spotify and my itunes playlist which contains only Entanglements and the new Dirty Projectors song:

1. Sometimes i'd let itunes run on too long after Stillness Is The Move and Entanglements would play. I didn't have the heart to turn it off.
2b. totally awesome at the arches. i like the new thing they're doing with Some Dresses a whole lot.
7. first listen; enjoyed.
8. as above. Judgement is ace.

Heard plenty of good stuff for the first time this week: Steve Reich, Pulled Apart By Horses, Zu, Wooden Shjips. Reich is brilliant, I've been mulling over starting a thread on him. I'd recommend Wooden Shjips too, they're quite a bit better than the Pitchfork review suggests.

1 Charlie Higson off the telly's 80s band, signed to 2-Tone for a bit. Absolutely ace, in fact, manic horn-led punk-funk, and their album and some singles have just been added to Spotify
2a New album not as good as the previous one
2b Not "the new Fleet Foxes", Lamacq; however, perfectly fine Felice Brothers/Bon Iver/bluesy growly thing
4b So, so good live these days
6a Can't help noticing the tracklisting has completely changed since the version I got hold of a while ago

Brant Bjork sometimes makes great songs! Other times the lyrics are really bad. But there's a tune on spotify called 'My Ghettoblaster' which is cool. I went to Edinburgh to see Astral Social Club and it was very good indeed. As was Wounded Knee. I wasn't expected a one man disco but that's what we got!

1)b) Good band, good album, good fun. " Young wolves", apparently: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztnaRT6-Tss

3) Doom album is growing on me. I keep playing it even though I don't reckon it's very good. It's like reverse heroin.

4) Anyone wanna buy my Fennesz ticket? PLEASE:

I really can't be bothered with the comments this week, except that the YYYs album isn't amazing, but it's not that bad either. Most people seem to have gone too far one way, or the other IMO.
