Prefuse 73: One Word Extinguisher - I have this. I don't know, I tried to get into Prefuse 73, but I just couldn't. It's not that I dislike it, I just get bored with it fast. [/B]

I felt the same way until I saw him live, and now I love the album.

Also, if you like LSF, you should check out the !!! (Chik Chik Chik) single Me and Giuliani Down By The Schoolyard (it's kind of disco, but the first track is money), and definitely also get They Threw Us All In A Trench and Stuck A Monument on Top by The Liars (this one should also be a winner for you since you're into McLusky, if I recall).

I mentioned this in the British Rock thread, but Ride: Nowhere is an amazing album.

Edit: I estimate there is a .003% chance that you will like DCFC or The Postal Service, so just forget it. But definitely get that Interpol CD that he suggested.

Some albums:
The Dandy Warhols - Thirteen Tales from Urban Bohemia
Kula Shaker - K
Slug - The Lucy Ford EP
Slug - Se7ens
Basement Jaxx - Kish Kash
Amon Tobin - Supermodified
Xen Cuts - Ninja Tune - this is a 3-CD compilation of artists on the ninja tune label. I'm sure you'll notice a few of the names. Almost every individual song on all 3 CDs have a completely original sound, ranging from hip hop to electronic to trip hop to real instrumental pieces.

Some songs:
Atmosphere - Sound Vibration
IMA Robot - Dynomite
Amon Tobin - Keepin' It Steel (The Anvil)


Buck 65 - Man Overboard
Buck 65 - Vertex
Buck 65 - Talkin' Honky Blues
El P - Fantastic Damage
Deep Puddle Dynamics - The Taste Of Rain...Why Kneel? (Out of all the ones I'm suggesting, I can see you liking this one the most)
Cannibal Ox - The Cold Vein

The Peej

Its actually Atmosphere - Lucy Ford EP, not slug, although he's part of the group.

And if you want good hip hop, my collection spans about 30gigs and 4,000 tracks worth of albums, here's some gems (what im playing alot now):

Kelis - Tasty <- wicked album (this girl is engaged to nas, she got him to convert from islam to chrisitianity)
looptroop - modern day city symphony <- swedish cats
bahamdia - kollage <- this girl is good
jean grae - attack of the attacking things <- also a tight girl mc
beans - tomorrow right now
cunninglinguists - southernunderground <- dope cats
rjd2 - dead ringer <- excellent producer
raekwon - the lex diamond story <- probably his best solo work
rza - birth of a prince <- good producer too, check out Kill Bill, thats his soundtrack
tonedeff - underscore
arsonists - as the world burns
common sense - can i borrow a dollar?
cali agents - how the west was one <- one of the best collabs in my opinion
jaylib - champion sound <- also a deadly callob
akrobatik - balance
juice - listen to the words <- this guy killed eminem in battle olympics
mf doom/viktor vaughn - vaudeville villian
non-prophets - hope <- signed to epitaph for all you punk rockers
immortal technique - revolutionary volume 1 and 2
ill bill - ill bill is the future <- necro's brother
necro - gory days and/or brutality <- this guy is graphic, but nice beats
people under the stairs - or stay tuned
moka only is - ron countour
mf doom - operation doomsday
little brother - the listening <- 9th wonder and phonte, nice collab

that should hold you over for awhile, you can download them from me too, let me know if you want any

pz,
yung

Any semimainstream sounding indie that's not TOO weird?

Also what is indie exactly? ... indie label? ... or indie sound?

What kind of mainstream music do you like?

I'd say the sound dictates the indie moniker more than anything. Indie music tends to be stuff that sounds different than stuff on the radio, but still manages to find a fan following despite lack of promotion. Even so, The White Stripes aren't indie anymore in my opinion because they play shows in front of eight trillion people, and sell eight trillion records, even though they sound pretty much the same as they used to.

[Verthanthi]

Because no one has mentioned them yet

Godspeed you black emporer - Yanqui U.X.O. (especially motherfucker=redeemer, the first track of that is amazing)

[Facetious]

I think "Lift yr. Skinny Fists..." is magnitudes better.

Oh, yeah, PJ. File sharing doesn't work at all on my computer, and I can't find much old Anticon stuff at stores anywhere.

damn... i never knew TW had such a backpack following, you shoulda let this be known earlier, i would have laced you guys with some ill shit, i still can, let me know if you really want some dope rap, i'll give you access to the 15gigs i have sittin on my work computer. Private Message me. (Must get soulseek for this offer to be valid, not available with use of another coupon)

[Mr. Peanuts]

Stereophonics - Word Gets Around (Album)

[Pearl Jam]

[Digitalwave]

Overall, yeah I think it is. But I just got Yanqui so I've been listening to it a bunch and I also really love the opening to motherfucker=redeemer.

[genocidal]

peej, i take it you're a pretty big sunny day real estate fan...what is your favourite cd? i only have diary and i have heard most of the pink one and from what i can tell diary is much better, though that is only my opinion...
