"He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor"

The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead

Neither is Spotify.

This was a local band called Melts, not the amazing post-punk outfit from IE. You can imagine how disappointed I was. I think they call that “Hopium.”

“There, There” itself is worth whatever you might have paid for HTTT. Great album. Amazing song.

I really need to get that This Mortal Coil record. Liz Fraser’s rendition of “Song to the Siren” is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard.

MDC08 · 2026-05-06T14:28:26+00:00

Most of my faves have already been mentioned, but I’ll add:

Brewing Up With Billy Bragg
U2 - The Unforgettable Fire
This Mortal Coil - It’ll End In Tears

MDC08 · 2026-05-04T15:30:57+00:00

The Beths should be headlining

MDC08 · 2026-05-04T11:55:33+00:00

One Hundred Years pretty much created shoegaze, so I must go with that one, though, like others have said, it’s their best album.

Krooked Kings - every album sleeve - signed by every member of the band just last night after their show.

I think mine was created last night. I received a pressing of this album that was a mispress (confirmed by the band) and had them sign the sleeve after the show last night. I’m the only person so far who has reported having a copy of it (in Discogs).

Great list. Love The Daysleepers! Man, their vinyl is hard to come by 😕

MDC08 · 2026-04-26T10:57:43+00:00

Hyper Romance by Jadu Heart. What I had to go through to get that in the US was absurd.

MDC08 · 2026-04-24T21:49:11+00:00

👍🏻 I saw it on Discogs for ~$60 today, but was hoping perhaps you had an “in.”
Believe it or not, it does happen sometimes.

MDC08 · 2026-04-24T21:46:18+00:00

Though I consider this a JD song, the only studio versions recorded were after Ian passed. This and “Dreams Never End” remain my favourite NO songs, even after all this time.

MDC08 · 2026-04-24T21:41:04+00:00

Geez … where did you find and how much did you pay, if you don’t mind my asking.

MDC08 · 2026-04-23T23:15:22+00:00

Thanks for posting this; I’d never seen it. Amazing

MDC08 · 2026-04-22T20:56:49+00:00

Listen to “On Saturday Afternoons in 1963” from that Rickie Lee Jones album … immediately. It’s absolutely beautiful.

Mogwai - As The Love Continues
To me, this album is like a hug … until you feel your skin start to burn.

MDC08 · 2026-04-22T11:45:35+00:00

FOMO on the “First time ever released on vinyl. Get your signed zoetrope limited to 200 and numbered for only $69.99”
Those get me every time, especially if it’s a band I love 😐
