THE SWORD - Age of Winters

[JayKeeley]

Basically, I wanted some alt/indie music. Haven't bought any in years (probably since the late 90's). So I just bought all these blind for the most part (after reading a few "best albums of the year" lists here and there).

I love the QotSA stuff I've heard, and I like the Sigur Ros stuff I've heard except I hear ( ) is the best one.

The rest is all blind or based on samples etc.

 

[Dick Sirloin]

Did you ever check out The Arcade Fire, KY?

Speaking of indie rock...

Someone else here needs to hear Animal Collective. Now.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Oh man, I did the same thing like 3x over the past 2 years. You should've come to me dude! I have DOZENS of CDs from bands who were considered the "best" stuff released from 2003-2005.

WOAH, yes I bought this too tonight!! I forgot to include it in the list so here goes:

Total blind buy that (just never heard a bad word said about it).

Hey man, you should just start a thread.

 

[Krilons Resa]

I'd rather just talk to you then have to bother with the RC trolling contigent.

 

[JayKeeley]

Yeah that was a sweet $90 dropped in Gugs like manner.

Well then at least start a thread on Joy Division!

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

[Nate The Great]

WHAT???

This band was on HB???

Jesus! I need to get Direct TV. 1349 was also on I guess. Next up is Drudkh. I hope they're the featured guest.

 

[lurch70]

i am surprised there is not that much drooling over this band ... just pulled this out again ... this is brilliant heavy ass shit ...

last 3 tracks alone are worth the disc ... "march of the lor" even wonders for a few seconds into DM territory ...

this is HOM style beer music ... but more so

i wish i remember where i saw it, but there was a list of popular college radio songs and The Sword was one of them. college rock meh....

 

[lurch70]

this is far from college rock ... maybe community college

SIRIUS satellite radio's metal station plays Iron Swan just about every day.

 

[Krilons Resa]

this album sucks.
