Not to mention that there will apparently be 70 bonus tracks on the super deluxe edition...

That was my favorite album back in middle school and it still holds up to this day, so I'm hoping to check it out.

Guess I'll be the first to christen the new thread ^_^

So Excited :jiggy:

Placebo has a new album coming out this year, Loud Like Love. I hadn't heard anything thing from them in a while so I was afraid they'd completely broken up. I've seen some complaints because their style has changed a bit, but I still get the same feel so I'm content. I won't judge till the full album comes out.

New Single

Too many friends

Some favorites

Battle for the Sun

Running up that hill (Kate Bush Cover)

it's probably not the best idea to listen to Threnody To the Victims of Hiroshima right before bedtime.

@In Utero re-release
[s]Just as planned[/s] I'll wait to see the track listing before I say maybe or no to this, though as I already have the boxed set I anticipate that a fair few tracks on the re-release will have been lifted from there. Still a great album, of course, just not sure if I want another copy of it so soon

Sweet! I also wasn't sure they were still making new music, so this is seriously good news. :peace:

Okay so something interesting about In Utero vinyl that I was actually formerly unaware of; the two OG pressings (US and UK) are supposedly both cut from a different set of master tapes with a significantly (un)altered mix of the album - The big differences being with the "radio-friendlies" 'Heart-Shaped Box', 'All Apologies', etcetera.

It's never been confirmed but these versions are widely accepted as the "Albini mix" of the album.

Makes a lot of sense if you read up on how the label went about the release too:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Utero_(album)#Release_and_reception

There's a seller over on DF who has this version listed on his Discogs for sale as well, so I might just nab it off of him as opposed to bothering with this exorbitantly priced re-release in September. And will also go better alongside my original copies of Bleach and Nevermind on the shelf.

You got the right of it. I can't even comprehend how they'd get 70 tracks worth of extra content, original/alternate mixes considered. Maybe there's even more (read: shit ton) unreleased music than commonly thought, and With The Lights Out was only the tip of the iceberg.

Like you said, will have to scope the track listing to see if this warrants a purchase for anyone who already owns the album regardless of format; CeeDee, digitale, bynilz.

I adore this picture

I like how the two genuine stars (David Bowie and Madonna) are the only ones that don't look like utter trainwrecks.

Also I'd basically cream myself if they ever collaborated, as huge fans of both since I was a kid it always perplexed me as to why they didn't, Madonna is basically the female version of Bowie in multiple ways.

Billy Idol doesn't look any more of a trainwreck as Madonna or Bowie. Sam Kinison, on the other hand, made a living being a trainwreck.

The interesting thing, though, is that Paul actually had more interest in avant-guarde music than John, even though he appeared less experimental.

Not sure if you guys are into Animal Collective (one of my favorite bands personally), but their new video for "Monkey Riches" just came out two days ago.
Also, about that In Utero reissue: I'm stoked for the original Albini mix! Haven't heard much of his work, but for the most part I love it, especially Surfer Rosa and his work with Big Black. It'd be interesting to hear that more abrasive side of Nirvana that was only hinted at with the remixing job done in In Utero.

I've given Fever Hunting another two complete listens since getting the DL with the pre-order and I'm liking it more and more. The production values are just insane, incredibly dynamic yet crisp. Blasting it full bull on the drive home from work this afternoon, you really need it loud to pick up heaps of the little details and nuances in the riffs; stuff that just make it so special - You can tell the guys have poured their whole selves into the recording and presentation.

I'd could talk about it more, but some gentleman/scholar has already worded it beautifully:
http://halifaxcollect.blogspot.com.au/2013/08/modern-life-is-war-fever-hunting.html

Fans of contemporary hardcore/punk need to check this out. Don't sleep.


Also, been spinning Hail to the Thief (AKA The Gloaming) a lot this past week.
Somewhere in my mind thoughts are forming at length. Slowly, but surely.

Just discovered this group called M83 this week. They're a French electronic/alternative band. I heard one of their songs on a show and decided to youtube them. They've got some really cool videos. The song I got was from their 2011 album Hurry Up, We're Dreaming. They did about four or five videos based around these kids with telekinetic powers. Kind of like mini movies. The premise reminded me of Akira. Definitely wanted to share.

Here are a few songs. All the videos are linked, but you have to watch them in the right sequence. These first two are correct. I think that third one is the last. They're pretty cool. ^_^
