    I think the media will again try to hype them up as much as possible. At the moment they are still kind a of a secret. I have listened to about 5-6 songs and like you said, the songs are not first-hear radio hits. But they could grow, so you never know.

    Strangely I have never listened to the killers at all. I know that one song that works pretty good when played loud. But I much prefer the BLOC PARTY record above them both. This band is really good in my opinion.

    I don't know her record label, but I do know she's married to record producer T Bone Burnett.
    The song, All Night, is off a boot and a shoe.

    OK now your just making **** up. :D

    (The more I read over these, I'm starting to think a couple would be cool artist/Cd names, sort of like 'Welcome To The Interstate Managers')

    Somebody on one of those DMB sites posted a ****ty small video with Dave kinda rapping at the end of Too Much. It was unreal.

    Looks like you had an awesome setlist. Lie in Our Graves and The Best of What's Around in the same setlist is great!

    speaking of "Nobody's Fault But Mine," i have an acoustic version that's titled as Old Crow Medicine Show (awesome blues/bluegrass band), but sounds a lot more like Houser of Panic. you should check it out.

    "i've got my bible in my hand...."

    Zep has got me interested in checking out all the old blues artisits that "inspired" so many of their songs. guys like Robret Johnson, Blind Willie Johnson, Willie Dixon, etc.

    It is better than The Wall, IMO, and is my favorite Floyd album ever.

    It is a concept album in which Roger Waters writes about society and the 3 classes of it - dogs, pigs, and sheep.

    The dogs are the ambitious types who will do anything to get to the top including stabbing those who help them in the back. The pigs are the moral, self-righteous hypocrites. The sheep are pretty much everyone else who will do whatever the dogs and pigs tell them to do.

    Loosely based on Orwell's Animal Farm, it features 5 tracks:

    Pigs on the Wing, Part 1
    Dogs
    Pigs (Three Different Ones)
    Sheep
    Pigs on the Wing, Part 2

    The two Pigs on the Wing are pretty much the same song and only last 1 minute and 25 seconds. Dogs is the longest song and runs a little over 17 minutes. Pigs (Three Different Ones) is close to 12 minutes and Sheep is around 11 minutes.

    Because these main tracks are so long, this is an album you never hear on classic rock stations. Coming in between Wish You Were Here and The Wall didn't help it either.

    However, this IS the album that features the best playing of David Gilmour's career. That dude is so on with his playing in this album, it isn't even funny. I think it is the heaviest Floyd album of them all. It was also the last album in which Rick Wright fully participated on (with Roger in the band). He was kicked out of the band before The Wall was completed (but he was still credited).

    Many say that Animals was the beginning of the end for Floyd as Roger really exerts his dominance here and continues that with The Wall and The Final Cut. And although I won't deny that, it also so happens to be my favorite period of Floyd.

    I started out liking Gilmour more than anyone else but the more I have listened to them (including all their solo albums), I am convinced that Roger Waters is a god.

    Getting Animals really makes the listening experience of The Wall even better, IMO.

    Agreed. I saw Roger Waters on tour, front row, and it was the best concert of my life.

    My GF gave me a gift certificate for my B' day at Lou's records in Encinitas (where we met Interpol). I have just now returned home with what I picked and am listening to them while I surf (life is very good)

    The Delgados - Hate
    The Libertines - self titled
    The Wrens - The Meadowlands
    Kings of Leon - Aha Shake Heartbreak

    She's a good girlfriend :)

    Regarding other posts here:

    HatjonZ, I am interested in the Weakerthans. What do you think of them?

    Ditto the Decemberists in regards to Rudager's post.

    Freak, I love it that Mott the Hoople is in heavy rotation in your cd player. Do you have Brain Capers? I think it may be my favorite of theirs.

    Manny, are you listening to 'The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway?
