Currently, I'm listening to the new Explosions In The Sky lp. It's damn good if you like instrumental rock. They're going to be at Coachella, so if you're going, check 'em out. Also, there's this great band called The Ponys that put out great indie rock. Is there anything new or old that you guys are listening to?

i saw this band the other night called The Draft. decent stuff. ex-members of Hot Water Music.

I'm having a mad one at the moment, listening to lots of Cramps, Lady Sov, magnetic fields, crumbsuckers and the Stupids !
Aint been much new stuff floating my boat, like the new Jarvis Cocker , and still rocking New Young Pony Club, and liking the new Bloc Party lp too

I got the new Bloc Party lp a few days go. I've only listened it to a few songs. So far so good.

yeah man its a bit different , but i'm feelin it.

I couldn't get enough downpicked guitar this week.

the marked men- fix my brain
the Vicious - alienated
the lillingtons - the too late show
cloak/dagger - pinata 7"

That Marked Men LP is great. Other decent bands to check out:

Headache City
Fucked Up (not new but still awesome)
Carbonas
Social Cirkle
Darvocets
Homostupids (1st 7" only)

Jay Reatard - Blood Visions

I love the last fucked up record, People get down on it because of the lengths of the songs. I think its great.
Social cirkle is great. the peeps who do no way out records live across the street from me.

I thought the Ponys were done.

They were great when they played here all of the time!!!

some new shizzz...

the county medical examiners - lidous operettas
killer wanna-be carcass

fueled by fire - awesome la thrash band!

+100!

New stuff -

Xexyz - "Primeval Mountain" Check it out, these guys took the music from old Nintendo games like Rygar and Metroid, and built insane Black Metal songs from them. 8-bit unholiness!

Melechesh - "Emissaries"

Sasquatch - "II" Kick ass, super heavy stoner rock. Really good band.

The Good, The Bad & The Queen - s/t Members of The Clash + Blur

4 CD's from Janet Klein and her Parlor Boys - I just saw them live and got all 4 of her CD's, so this qualifies as new for me. Great band that does songs from the 1910's - 1930's. Really authentic and the live show (they play once a month in L.A.) is super fun.

I've also had a jones to listen to some old stuff -

a new reissue of Billy Squire's first record, which rocks!

Liz Phair's 1st 2 records

some 70's funk style James Brown (RIP )
