Against Me! Has been recently added to my top 10 all time favorite bands and I’ve been meaning to post this album for a while now. This is their second album which switched them from No Idea to Fat Wreck Chords which made some fans concerned that they lost their DIY ethics. I’m a fan of DIY artists, but I don’t care in the case of Against Me! This album has been described by Tom Gabel the lead songerwriter of the band as “More punk” than their previous album Reinventing Axel Rose if that’s possible. It’s still got it’s folk punk core to it which is what I like about this album. Against Me!’s newer albums are even more punk than this album(If that’s possible). I’d offer songs to listen to, but I just recommend listening to this album straight through because all of them are amazing.

It's hard finding good trance these days. New age trance isn't embraced as much as more popular genres like electro and hard dance. For this reason, I have for this week decided to upload the most recent album from André Tanneberge, or ATB for short. Famous mostly for the success of the track 9pm (till I come) this album illustrates that ATB still has what it takes to make good music. It's a very soft, ambient piece, but it picks up on songs Everything is Wrong and Sunset Girl. Collaborating with Roberta Harrison gives a rather sombre tone to the album that creates a feeling of longing for something more, perhaps suggesting ATB's journey in the music industry is far from over.
These are 10 albums that I like and have been meaning to post but have nothing to say about them except they are all a good listen and I think you'll like them. So, that's all I'll say. These albums are a good listen, I think you'll like them.

Captain Chaos is Chris Clavin's solo work, simply put. The name comes from a nickname given by Spoonboy(Another great artist and his roomate) that stuck and became his stage-name. It's just him, a guitar, and some cute lyrics. It's pretty much Ghost Mice toned down(What you'd expect his solo stuff to be). Some people enjoy his solo more than his work as Ghost Mice, but I think they are both pretty boss.

I picked this up at the dollar store admittedly, but it is definitely the best thing in that entire store(and I've gotten some pretty cool stuff at dollar stores). If you like ska, this compilation has plenty of snazzy mid-90s artists of the California ska scene that you probably never heard of. A few that you have heard of, though, are Save Ferris, The Aquabats, Skadaddyz, and The Hippos. Lesson learned, take a good look at dollar store CDs because they are not all trash.
So, after a month without posting and no indication if last month was the best month or not, I've decided to continue posting again. This week, I've decided to take a step back and post a more familiar artist among techno fans, The Crystal Method. This is their debut album, which perhaps is most famous for the track Busy Child. The sounds are slow, steady beats that like most techno builds up to a cool breakbeat tempo. A classic artist that's definitely worth a listen.
Here's something from my home state of California for you faithful bloggers. Although I will admit this genre is a little outside the norm of our indie-rock/underground rap/folk rock/punk rock/etc posts, it is definitely worthy of a mention. I am really sticking my e-rep out on this one but even if a few people enjoy it, I've done my job. What you get to look forward to with this band is Adult Contemporary piano rock meets Smashing Pumpkin's Billy Corgan. I'm just going to say it, don't knock it till you try it.
DOOM is like beer. first time you try it... it's awful, though if you stick with, good times can certainly be had. i classed this guy as unlistenable after hearing the track 'Doomsday' from this album like 4-5 years ago but didn't delete it off of my mp3, Playa (what what) for some reason. i gave it a few more spins and once his whole drunken slurring style sunk in i was totally hooked on the guy. This album is chock full of amazing samples, namely from old Fantastic Four cartoons and even a beat made entirely of Scooby Doo sounds ('Hey!') but as the legend goes, DOOM didn't clear any of them, and the album was recalled and cancelled* by Fondle 'Em... though i'm one of the lucky few to own an original copy. And you're fucking nuts if you think i'm uploading that... i've literally played it once.
Deltron 3030 is the DJ/MC/Producer Hip Hop Supergroup of Kid Koala, Del tha Funkee Homosapien and Dan the Automator. Chances are you'll instantly recognise Del's voice as 'that guy from Gorillaz'... no surprise then that Automator was one half of the original Gorillaz project. Deltron 3030 is a true Hip Hop Epic in every sense. The lyrics are inventive and the music itself is mind-blowingly crafted though if you aint into the whole space rap thing... stay away. This is quite the concept album and one of my personal favourites of all time. Enjoy
I heard these dudes playing in the background where i work and thought i'd share them here. if i'm being honest the womans voice can get annoying at parts but there is some really good tunes on here worth the download. namely 'Get What I Want' and 'Trouble'.
