cor! you mentalist.

I need a job.

Double Leopards playing makes it neccessary

Signing

They have it on alot of the sky music channels after about 3am (when deaf people wake up apparently). The best part of this discovery was watching the signing woman play air guitar and rock out on an imaginary drum kit during the instrumental section of Meatloaf's I'd Do Anything For Love. They also have to put their fingers to their lips at every swear word. Needless to say when Dr Dre was on this became rather complex.

Gods

Surely it was Dionysus who was the god of music and alcohol?

Mono - New York Soundtracks

Bleh, Mono are amazing when they stick to the massive buildups and cathartic noise shit but they're the epitome of generic post rock, even live their quieter melodic sections just seemed totally banal compared to Mogwai, Maserati, or even Explosions to list the other more predictable proponents of the genre.

65*daysofstatic - The Fall Of Math

Fuck me, I need this.

Plus, they're touring soon, yay.

Re: Moby - MKLVFKWR

But you can't really say the same about Moby's worst album?

Re: Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue

Cursive used cello

Re: Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue

Well, I can think of a fair few bands off the top of my head I listen to that regularly use violin:

Godspeed You! Black Emperor
A Silver Mt. Zion
Hangedup
Set Fire To Flames
Noxagt
Mono
Sigur Ros
Hope of the states

Even sodding Coldplay use string arrangments, and what about classical music?
