lemme guess track 3 is a tart confection of auricular mascarpone oozing from the very fundament of arpeggio'd valhalla

auricular marscapone--goddamn LJ i missed you
― jazzgasms (Mr. Que), Tuesday, 10 November 2009 00:57 (fourteen years ago) link
the auricular mascarpone is the mid-section of track 7, actually

Great list, great post, LJ! Love a small handful of these but I will have to check out a the ones I've never heard. Thanks for reminding me of Lapsus Linguae who I was quite into for a while but completely forgot about.

LOL who is this for?
― jazzgasms (Mr. Que), Tuesday, 10 November 2009 00:59 (fourteen years ago) link
need i even ask
if jjusten's comment was directed at me - then the last i'll say about Provates, is that i bet that LJ's new girlfriend would also think they rule.
― sarahel, Tuesday, 10 November 2009 01:01 (fourteen years ago) link
can i just direct some <3 at everything who introduced me to cardiacs and basically is indirectly responsible for half of this list what with that band's mind-expanding capabilities

nah my comment was directed at lj who, although i love him like a brother, is one step away from getting the word "oozing" added to my list of hilarious board substitutions.
― GO THICK AMOS! (jjjusten), Tuesday, 10 November 2009 01:31 (fourteen years ago) link
so what's the substitution associated with Ulver?
― sarahel, Tuesday, 10 November 2009 01:42 (fourteen years ago) link
i was just listening to the Kayo Dot song (which isn't my favorite song on that album) and there are some similarities between it and the Ulver song, that I'm trying to put my finger on, that could help explain to me specifics of how lj's taste and mine differ.

xp - no, that's a pretty common musical form/structure. The similarity had to do with vocal tonality, chord changes, and some similarity in notes/melodic lines.
― provates: feminine plural of provato (sarahel), Wednesday, 11 November 2009 20:10 (fourteen years ago) link
why yes i adore advanced chord-changes

xp - i think i've mentioned this before, but i have noticed that you tend to prefer "smoother" sounding vocals than i do.

not always! i love the fall...and lots of cookie-metal...

i did not know this. zach hill is the michael jordan of drumming imo

wavves r no monstars tho
― plaxico (I know, right?), Wednesday, 11 November 2009 20:25 (fourteen years ago) link
xp - lj: i'm not saying always - but it seems like the stuff you like the most has a similar vocal quality and there are certain melodic similarities.

I love you for this.

it's true, they could have made it 15 minutes long and i'd have probably put it 9th

re Cardiacs-related misreadings, I need to shop misreading the board on the pub next to my bus stop which says "LIVE MUSIC: Dave SMITH and the CADILLACS"
plus I suspect there have been approx 6000 bands called the Cadillacs in the history of music so maybe someone else in the bus queue is getting wrongly excited without having to misread it
