"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
Only picked up two albums that came out this year, as not much else caught my eye. ;p
Kamelot - Poetry for the Poisened.
Now this one isn't as good as Ghost Operah was, but it was great none the less. Lyrical it's great, and the actual music has a lot of energy, as a good power metal band should. The best track is probably either The Great Pandemonium, or The Zodiac.
Gorillaz - Plastic Beach.
Outside of a couple of terrible tracks, and I'm looking at you Sweepstakes, it's a solid album, WHile not as good as Demon Days, it's probably turned out my favorite Gorrila song with Rhinestone Eyes.
I've been meaning to get that Sleigh Bells album ever since I found out that one of my favorite songs off of M.I.A.'s new album was sampled from them. Need it! lolOriginally Posted by charliepanayi
And thanks Rantzien for reminding me of The Scott Pilgrim Soundtrack,that thing is too good!
Sleigh Bells is a great band.I've been meaning to get that Sleigh Bells album ever since I found out that one of my favorite songs off of M.I.A.'s new album was sampled from them. Need it! lol
Also, charliepanayi - I must have said this to you many times before, but you have a wicked taste in music
Thanks Breine
And yes, those interested in Sleigh Bells check them out! A very love it or hate it album, but I think it's great, it's like being bashed over the head repeatedly for 32 minutes, but in a good way.
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
Awesome photo, horrible typography. On topic; completely forgot to check this album out. Will do right away, it's still 2010.
