jvlgato Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 (edited) by far my favorite u2 album Agreed. I tease my wife (a big U2 fan) that they jumped the shark after this one! Edited July 19, 2011 by jvlgato

faust3d Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 Dust - "Hard Attack" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkue5a3tpmw Le Scrawl - "Q" Hell yeah!
Dusty Chalk Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 Agreed. I tease my wife (a big U2 fan) that they jumped the shark after this one!They didn't? Go ahead, say it, I can't: Oh snap. Alright, there was Achtung Baby but that was an anomol...anamal...animal...anamoly, oh jesus I can't speak straight this morning.
aardvark baguette Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 This has become my go-to metal disc these days. It gets so many things right for me.
mypasswordis Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 Yes, one more Meshuggah convert! Hits the spot so, so good sometimes. I like almost all of their work.
aardvark baguette Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 (edited) I've been a fan for a while, at least of this one. I haven't listened to the newer stuff in years though. I'll probably revisit them soon. I can definitely say that I appreciate this material more now that my 'musical ear' has grown up since high school. Edited July 19, 2011 by aardvark baguette

Aura Posted July 20, 2011 Report Posted July 20, 2011 Haven't quite "gotten" Meshuggah yet. I have Catch 33 and their newer live album but neither have appealed to me so far. Should I be checking out any of their other material? I want to like them, I really do.

Should I be checking out any of their other material? I want to like them, I really do. Definitely check out Destroy Erase Improve. I haven't heard the Catch 33 or live ones. I haven't listened to Chaosphere in a long time, but I remember thinking at the time that DEI had more groove to it, and better vocals. I really can't stress how awesome it is to have groove like that, despite the rigid time signatures and tempo shifts and whatnot. Its kind of like taking the groove of say Guns N Roses, and mixing it with the rigidness of Fear Factory. It shouldn't be possible but they did it. The vocals...its just so 'elastic'. Its so unique. DEI is probably my desert island metal disc, in fact.

mypasswordis Posted July 21, 2011 Report Posted July 21, 2011 Catch 33 is actually what got me hooked, but it's definitely out there compared to their other albums. The most recent one, Obzen, is the most accessible, I'd say, and also try Nothing.
jvlgato Posted July 22, 2011 Report Posted July 22, 2011 Mussorgsky: Pictures at an Exhibition (Original Piano Version & Orchestral Version: Ashkenazy)
Torpedo Posted July 22, 2011 Report Posted July 22, 2011 I like the piano version better than the orchestral one of that work, though both are nice. This is a whole morning task (I'm off after an on-call shift) Wagner, Kleiber, Staatskapelle Dresden - Tristan und Isolde
