The Tubes "Tip of My Tongue"...absolutely COOKIN'!

 

[Swedish Chef]

These keep working themselves back into my rotation. Never get tired of them.

Toy Matinee - Toy Matinee
Arc Angels - Arc Angels
Robbie Robertsons first solo album.

I guess I gravitate to songwriters more than 'player' stuff.

Scorch, super thanks, those are fabulous. Loading them on my Android as I'm typing. More!

No bass, two guitars, lovely layered contrapuntal stuff, direct, simple, punky. And... a Danelectro!!!
I think they tune down to 'C'

 

[funny_polymath]

My favorite - the simple, simple guitar work is perfect for its genre. And there's a lot of restraint - no testosterone-fueled over-playing. Love it. Check out the clean, sad, emotionally affecting lead break.

 

[Sidivan]

One of the reasons I like this group. You guys are as twisted as I am. Who in their right mind can go from Manson to Pure Moods? I love it.

The really funny thing is those were my top 2 CD's in my collection in 1997. I didn't add one or the other later. I bought them at the same time! Good music is good music. Period.

 

[CyberFerret]

Toy Matinee - Toy Matinee

Toy Matinee is one that has recently made it onto my rotation list as well... Great album...

New band I'd never heard of and dig. They are called: OK GO. Very cool stuff......

You know the strange thing - I've never actually stopped to LISTEN to an OK GO track properly - mainly because I've been too mesmerised by their video clips...

 

[Coldsummer]

One of my favourite albums of all time is When Sex Leers its Inquisitive Head by Peter Wyneguard. It's quite avant-guard but challenging, entertaining and fascinating at the same time.

these guys kill it... groove, hooks, riffs, harmony vocals...

 

[Sidivan]

I love OK Go videos.

 

[Psykopsilocybin]

Very cool ideas here. Cool thread.

I always seem to go back to SOAD. I feel the guitar playing lacks some technique, but it mixes with the songs perfectly. And some of the voice parts are for me the dealbreaker.

I saw Kaki King this year without ever hearing her beforehand. I went out and got several CDs, but her latest, "Glow", to me is really something. She was first a percussionist, and she brings that to the guitar. If you get a chance, check her out live.
