todays top tunes: Blondie - Heroes X-Ray Spex - Germ Free Adolescents and this Schneider TM - The Slide , which is just achingly sad and beautiful.

I found this great tune while driving with my ipod on random this week - 'Panters' from Wilco's A ghost is born bonus disc. I highly recommend it! Also listening to Fiona Apple's Extraordinary Machine quite alot.

Omar's right, very of its time and yet sounding like little else from the era aswell. I saw him play the album live in the Ambassador a few years ago. Incredible show, the man had so much conviction for the music even then.

Still listening to The Cinematic Orchestra's 'Ma Fleur'...an absolute gem of an album and would have been my album of 2007 if had bought it in, er, 2007! Everyone: Buy this album! Took a while but British Sea Power's new one is really growing on me, even if they do sound like a second-rate Doves at times. Gemma Hayes (remember her?) 'Home', new track posted on her Myspace page...a real return to form and possibly the best thing she's done. Cat Power: 'Moon Pix' Back when she was good. Stars: 'Set Yourself On Fire' If you have to buy one Stars album, buy this one.

From what I saw of the show Im with you entirely on this one. That said I only barely had the patience to watch their 1st song and so cant claim to have given them much of a chance. Perhaps if I was just listening and not watching I would have appreciated their music more but I couldnt get passed their 'gimmicky-ness'. Half the members of their accompanying choir werent even singing and pretty much looked confused as to what the hell they were doing there in the first place. The drummer was weak and the singer even more so... Bring on the new Doves album!

They even had 2 guys on at the end dressed as wrestlers doing the worst impersonation of wrestlers you could ever imagine. Fuck, we all like a bit of theatre, but when it hit the level of Spinal Tap minus the humour, it's SAD. I reckon they thought "the more gimmicks we have, the less time people will have to make Arcade Fire references." Have you heard Guy Garvey's show on 6 music - it's usually really good - you can stream it here; www.bbc.co.uk/6music/shows/garvey/

Marty DiBergi: Oh, there actually is, uh... there was a Saint Hubbins? David St. Hubbins: That's right, yes. Marty DiBergi: What was he the saint of?

My biggest Spinal Tap moment was in Crawdaddy - we'd the Ultra Montanes playing with us & I was in the bar talking to their singer, Rory. We were heading backstage, but couldn't get in no matter how hard we pushed the door... after 5 mins of trying, the door opened out TOWARDS us... never thought of actually trying to pull it instead of pushing. He turned to me and said.. "Jesus, you'd swear we were drummers!"

Then later on I gave out to the soundman for having no sound when it got my guitar bit. He came onstage, checked all the leads & connections, which were fine, then said "have you got the volume on your guitar turned up?" DOH!

This month we are currently listening to Spinal Tap (it appears!)... excerpt of an interview from The Observer The Observer: Ricky Gervais told me there's a story that Liam thinks Spinal Tap are a real band. Is that true? Noel Gallagher: Yeah, he thought they were real people. We went to see them play in Carnegie Hall. Before they played, they came on as three folk singers from the film A Mighty Wind. We were laughing and he said: 'This is st'. We said: 'No, those three are in Spinal Tap. You do know they are American actors?' 'They're not even a real band?' 'They're not even English! One of them is married to Jamie Lee Curtis.' 'I'm not fkin' 'avin that,' he says, and walks off right up the middle of Carnegie Hall. He's never watched Spinal Tap since. He'd seen the film and loved it and thought they were a real band.

Posted By Binokular on 13 Feb 2008 7:58 AM Ally, do you like, ever listen to anything non-obscure? i'm not sure i listen to all obscure stuff... i have just seriously gone off "indie" bands in the past few years... or at least the type of indie-rock bands that are your standard four or five piece with a driving 4/4 rythym section... i'm spending more time with (WARNING: some horrible genre names arriving) avant-folk, experimental, minimalist, jazz, indie-pop (of the highly melodic and lovely lyric type; camera obscura, herman dune etc...), drone, noise, left-field alternative rock (e.g. sonic youth, deerhoof etc..) but also a lot of time with just good americana type singer-songwriters such as will oldham, bill callahan, jason molina, ali roberts. i listen to less electronica these days for some reason... (i am going to try ellen allien on your recommendation) thank you for asking... it gave me an excuse to s**te on about what i like...

Fair enough Ally, not having a go, I was just wondering if you ever go "to hell with it, today I'm listening to "The Best of Blondie" or something. Ellen Allien, isn't really "electronica" in the noodling round with a laptop sense , it's proper full on Techno/Electro in the 12" single sense (yeah, I know, I'm getting genre obsessed again, but I hate people to confuse her with the nerds). You might not be into it if undiluted dance music isn't your thing, it is what it is, but give it a spin anyway, no harm, you might like it. Thom Yorkes a big fan or Modeselektor (who are on her Bpitch Control label). http://www.bpitchcontrol.de/ Jan - you know what I mean, stop pretending to be offended, sure I've heard of a couple of those bands but wouldn't be massively familiar with their stuff because you can't keep track of every single indie rock band out there, niche bands maybe? happy now?

Just listening to Miss Kittin - Batbox for the first time (I've got a shedload of other stuff I've bought but not listened to properly too), it's a bit underwhelming initially and you start thinking this album could be the disappointment of the year, but then it starts to hit its stride and it's a great. I've a feeling it could be a real grower of an album too. Doesn't break much new ground, If you're already a fan, you'll like it, if you don't like Miss Kittin (freak! ) then I doubt it will convince you to change your opinion.

Other albums that got a bit of spin last night Lily Frost - Cinemagique: pleasant but not exactly riveting stuff, got bored half way through. Disco not Disco 3 1974-1986: sure, the post punk thing has been done to death these days, but it's good to hear the orignals, some good stuff on here.

hood - outside closer... ...and so that i could live up to my stereotype... songs in the key of 'z' volume 1... a truly magnificent and very strange compilation of outsider music...

Posted By UnaRocks on 22 Feb 2008 5:21 AM New Amusement: http://www.myspace.com/newamusement The 'oul links are handy! That band aren't too bad, though the delivery of the vocals could be a bit better & I'd definitely would've done some additional treatment on them at the production stage. But, promising stuff. They could do with a bit of a biog aswell!

'Gone to Sea' is a tune and a half.

Just listening to Matthew Dear - Asa Breed (Black Edition), Matthew Dear was one of those artists I'd "heard of" but not heard and this is a pleasant surprise, first impressions are definitely good. Kind of a Techno/Pop crossover.

"Where You Been".. Dinosaur Jr. Opening track, "Out There".. worth watching just to see J.Mascis play the opening riff whilst standing on the top of a snow covered mountain (Slash style); Mascis.. f**king excellent guitarist. One of the best, I reckon.

I reckon it's his best album along with the 'Electric Magnolia Co'. Some of the guitar interplay on it is sublime and the live 'Lioness'/ 'Tigress' kicks the ass off the LP version. I don't think Aidan Moffat's basic as f**k keyboard skills added much to the studio version.

True - good opener, poorly executed album.

I'm listening to that Domino 'All The Rage' sampler. 'Fireworks' by Animal Collective is cool.
