Re: The GD Music Archive

BSS: pretty good.
Animal Collective: very good (see whichever thread it was, it also comes approved by Nod!)


and now, a recommendation!

Indie
The Boxer Rebellion - Exits
This is one hell of an album, and it delights more with every listen. The basic premise is of a shoegazer-dance-rock-type thing, of the ilk of Kasabian or The Music. But while those bands certainly have their place, TBR are working on a very different level. The brash, angular, noisy FUNK of songs like Watermelon or The New Heavy establishes their credentials as a band to dance to, and the curious mixture of slow-burning melodies and emotionally-charged vitriol seen in Flight or All You Do Is Talk shows their versatility and quality, but it's the beautiful soundscapes of songs such as We Have This Place Surrounded or World Without End that are the proof of the pudding: Beautiful, multi-part soundscapes that burst into crescendoes before slipping back into subtlety. An absolutely compelling album that everyone who can tolerate a guitar in their music should hear.
