Red Mosquito

okay, I listened to every song with a youtube video link and the only songs I was interested in were BurtReynold's song from the national and that song lament linked. And the nick cave song was pretty good.

Annabel was okay,

None of these blew me away

Maybe badmusic is right and I just don't like music. Someone tell me most of these songs aren't that great so I can feel better about myself. Or link something better.

I wasn't impressed by a lot of what's been posted....

just pretend they are all by Pearl Jam, give them the obligatory 27 listens, and force yourself to like them

Here's some dadrock for you, stip...

How about this gem, Stip?

the music started and first I thought 'hey, this is pretty good' and then I thought 'fuck, I hope I don't like the dadrock song on principle' and then he started to sing and I started to lose interest. I like the music though

maybe if mark lanegan was singing it

I feel like this will forever be a standard reaction to 85% of the stuff I get you to listen to...



(I'm trying to stick to more traditional rock-type stuff cause I feel like my arsenal of pretty girls playing piano or pressing buttons probably won't impress you...)

Oh come on. That is almost a Lanegan track.

the atoms for peace song was pretty good. I was about to say this guy sounds just like thom yorke and then I looked them up. It also kind of reminds me at the same time why I've gotten bored with radiohead.

It's not really my thing, but I liked the Daft Punk song.

I see no real reason to listen to Neil Finn unless he's singing with Eddie Vedder

I kinda liked this until whatever that weird thing is during the chorus. This is one of the greatest band names i've ever heard, though.


I feel like I am like 15 degrees off from Lament. I almost like every song he links, but something just knocks me slightly off course.

i generally dislike the anthem pop choruses in songs like this.

okay, I'll be back in this thread tomorrow.

Someday stip (I don't know when), we're gonna get to that place where we really want to go, and we'll walk in the sun.

But till then...



I'll be a thorn in your side.

I liked this even though on paper I shouldn't.
