        Indeed
      • alastairp
        talking about hammertime
      • JordanC
        But that doesn't mean anything, seeing as you can not stop listening and still pay them nothing
      • alastairp
      • aCiD2 watches more dexter's lab
      • for those with an amd *hammer family chip
      • CatCat
        dexter's lab \o/
      • LotR
        and you certainly don't need to listen to crap, even if you restrict yourself to non-riaa-signed bands
      • JordanC
        Oh, but there's plenty of crap out there
      • JordanC points to Linkin Park
      • FauxFaux points at aCiD2's collection.
      • XD
      • Meow
      • aCiD2
        I have no Linkin Park -_-
      • JordanC
        Good, cause they are very bad indeed
      • because*
      • srotta
        LotR: Yeah right!
      • FauxFaux has five Linkin Park albums. ¬_¬
      • JordanC
        Every time I watch MTV, they're always going on about how they're like the Rolling Stones or something
      • FauxFaux mysteriously fixes replication. o/
      • Their first 3 albums were just garbage
      • alastairp
        ohnoes
      • JordanC
        :P
      • alastairp
        i'm out of manuscript!
      • srotta
        JordanC: Sounds like Rolling Stones all right.
      • JordanC
        JordanC: Linkin Park sounds like Rolling stones?
      • srotta
        JordanC: Now 22 more and they are identical.
      • LotR
        srotta: I don't know your taste in music, so I can't recommend anything..
      • JordanC
        Oh, you were talking about the first Rolling Stones albums
      • srotta: What would you say was the best album released?
      • srotta
        JordanC: Anywhere, anytime, by anyone?
      • JordanC
        Just as a gauge to see if you're not like, a midget-retro-avant-techno-folk-punk-shamisen fan :P
      • LotR
        JordanC: you have an answer for that yourself? I wouldn't be able to choose.
      • JordanC
        srotta: Well, one that springs to mind
      • Yeah, good answer
      • I've not really got one album I could say was better than others
      • Okay, what about the best album of last year?
      • srotta
        JordanC: Well, much of the music I listen is Finnish so those names probably wouldn't mean anything to you 8)
      • JordanC
        Which form of genre, srotta?
      • srotta
        JordanC: But if I had to pick one, Let It Be springs to mind.
      • LotR
        I'd probably pick one by PJ Harvey if I was pressed
      • JordanC
        See, that's interesting
      • srotta
        One foreign, that is.
      • Or Queen's Jazz.
      • JordanC
        The Beatles?
      • srotta
        Yes.
      • JordanC
        Well, that's not too shabby
      • Rolling Stones have decent songs, but their albums are kinda
      • srotta
        I don't know why I like Jazz, Queen certainly has better albums, but that seems to be the one I listen to most often.
      • JordanC
        Meh, I couldn't say - I like the Rolling Stones
      • I like Jazz, srotta
      • But, Linkin Park deserves it's own genre
      • Shit-crap
      • srotta
        With Rolling Stones, I'm more of a Greatest Hits man. I've listened probably all of their albums, several times, but I can't find enough decent material there.
      • FauxFaux
        The fact that they have multiple albums suggestes that your argument is flawed.
      • LotR
        bah. linkin park isn't *that* bad. they have a great song which they keep repeating
      • JordanC
        They don't have any great songs, they have many great repetitons of the same backing and style with poor and extremely pretentious lyrics
      • They're white suburban dudes who watch anime and probably the worst thing that happened to them is they filed a bad tax receipt
      • srotta: Meh, I've never liked Greatest Hits albums
      • I tend to not get those kinda things :/
      • luks joined the channel
      • FauxFaux
        Hi luks!
      • srotta
        JordanC: Yeah, but I'm too lazy to go through the whole Rolling Stones catalog and select the ones I like myself :P
      • JordanC
        I don't do that either
      • I don't pick songs from an album then discard the rest, I listen to the album rather than 2 songs or something like that
      • luks
        hi!
      • srotta
      • That gives a pretty good idea of what I listen.
      • JordanC
        I prefer to get the sound of the artist and see what direction they were taking with the album.. if they make just a "collection of songs" , meh
      • I only recently re-started my last.fm profile
      • Muz
        Haha srotta, you like Nylon Beat?
      • LotR
        yeah, I prefer listening to complete albums too
      • srotta
        Muz: Well, who doesn't?
      • Muz
        srotta, anyone who's not Finnish, or has taste :P
      • srotta
        :P
      • FauxFaux
        Your musical compatibility rating with ssundell is: Very Low <-- best. last.fm. feature. ever.
      • srotta
        You have to have some bad habits.
      • JordanC
        ~:D
      • Muz
        srotta, surprised you don'tlisten to Tea Hilloste, and a PMMP :P
      • JordanC
        This album is pretty decent for pop :O
      • Muz
        *-a
      • srotta
        Muz: I already said, I won't listen crap 8)
      • Muz
        srotta, *cough*Nylon Beat*cough*
      • JordanC
        Hah
      • Such great debaters :P
      • srotta
        Muz: And YUP + Nylon Beat is pretty great combination :P
      • Muz shakes his head
      • They've recorded two cover songs together.
      • Muz
        srotta, it wasn't that Beatles tribute album was it?
      • srotta
        Muz: No.
      • FauxFaux
        Muz knows far too much about this subject. ¬_¬
      • srotta
        Muz: That's Nylon Beat only.
      • Muz
        FauxFaux, what? Bad Finnish pop music? :D
      • srotta, aha
      • srotta
        Muz: And that tribute album has some tracks that are much, much, much worse than Nylon Beat could ever be.
      • Muz
        I don't doubt that, well, at least you don't listen to Elakelaiset
      • srotta
        Muz: The other track was a tribute for Tuomari Nurmio, the other one is a cover of a Cliff Richard song.
      • Muz
        (For those of you that don't know Elakelaiset, here's a cover of Cranberries - Zombie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFVW2AA6ID4)
      • srotta
        http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQ99-ACRTZY and here's the Tuomari Nurmio cover, Huda huda.
      • Muz
        1:28 in the El�kel�iset video is aweome. The look on the crowd`s face heh
      • srotta
        That Cliff Richard song isn't in Youtube. I don't know if they've performed it live.
      • Muz: I've never understood El�kel�iset. It just doesn't strike me as funny, and that's the only reason anyone would listen to them.
      • Muz
        srotta, they�re big in Germany...
      • srotta
        Muz: Yeah, Germany is weird that way.
      • Muz
        :P
      • The only thing worth laughing about with regards to El�kel�iset is laughing /at/ them
      • It's so bad heh
      • srotta
        It is.
      • Of course, Finland has a tradition of generating crappy bands and then sending them overseas to Germany.
      • See Leningrad Cowboys.
      • 8)
      • Muz
        Heheh
      • Muz must admit, he kind of likes Katri Ylander
      • aCiD2
      • srotta
        I've listened to her first album, I guess the second one is better.
      • JordanC giggles at Muz
      • JordanC
        Hey, you know for the "Release #"
      • Whereabouts would you get that info from? The CD itself, or the artist website .. or ?
      • Muz
        srotta, Anna Abreu too is a guilty pleasure. Far better than Ari Koivunen ;)
      • srotta
        Muz: That's true.
      • LotR
        JordanC: either the CD or the label website IME
      • JordanC
        Thanks
      • Muz
        Ari Koivunen cannot sing, I don't know how the hell he won, short of "zomg he's covering Sonata Arctica" and all the 13 year old girls clamouring over it
      • LotR
        Muz: finnish 'Idol' ?
      • JordanC
        Wow
      • srotta
        Muz: Abreau sings well, she has some decent songs and a bit of diversity.
      • JordanC
        Universal Music Group 's website sucks ass
      • Muz
        She's hot too, and so so young
      • srotta
        Couldn't agree more.
      • :P
      • Muz
        She's younger than me! :D!
      • LotR
        that's not important. age of consent is! ;)
      • srotta
        Koivunen has a certain style of singing, and he's sticking with it no matter what the song is.
      • Muz
        srotta, that being "whiny, nasal and off key"?
      • JordanC
        Nope, I can't find the barcode/release number
      • srotta
        Well, that's the way they want it 8)
      • JordanC
        Not mentioned on Geffen or UMG
      • Muz
        Heheh
      • alastairp
        JordanC: no barcode at all on the cd case?
      • normally the release number is on the spine as well
      • JordanC
        Haven't got the CD case here, it's in the car :/
      • alastairp
        ah :)
      • LotR
        whose car? ;)
      • alastairp
        I think getting it would solve all your issues :)
      • what's the cd?
      • JordanC
        Got it
      • 0602517671515
      • GEFB001113402.2
      • srotta
        Muz: The win was mostly an image thing, Koivunen got heavy listeners voting.
      • JordanC
        Rock on :D
