I had my reservations about making it so long-winded, figuring it would draw exactly the kind of comment you made. i guess it's time to hang up the cleats. |

Yeah I don't think it warranted deletion, definitely worth getting more opinions.

Euro,
Never got the chance to read it [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] Now I'm interested. I think deleting the post may have been more genuis then the post itself. Now it will live in obscurity. How very "indie hipster" [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

Sam, I edited it out but actually kept the body of the post saved to file (just in case I wanted to draw inspiration from it for a future thread.) perhaps I could polish it up a bit and issue it in ininstallments, but I really don't know. you basically said my hipster critique has jumped the shark. at the very least I need to take a break. |

Re: Official Indie Starter Kit Thread (Calling all hipsters... sorry euro)
Rough draft of the final list... Im going out for a few hours, are there any major objections? (If not, Ill upload when I get back... btw, if I host it, can I post a link here, or are the legal problems an issue??)
In the Aeroplane Over the Sea - Neutral Milk Hotel Yankee Hotel Foxtrot - Wilco The Soft Bulletin - The Flaming Lips OK Computer - Radiohead Funeral - Arcade Fire Illinois - Sufjan Stevens The Moon and Antartica - Modest Mouse Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain - Pavement Keep it Like a Secret - Built to Spill Doolittle - Pixies (+ where is my mind) I See a Darkness - Bonnie 'Prince' Billy Kill the Moonlight - Spoon First 3 seem automatic. Im hesitant to go with OK Comp over the bends as an intro, but the group disagrees. Funeral provides a nice combination of awesomeness and Canadian content. "Illinois. Top some more AOTY lists. Plz" - istewart. Moon and Antartica seems to be the consensus Modest Mouse album, even if a few (myself included) like LCW more. I was gonna go with Slantend and Enchanted, but since I dont really like Pavement, I will defer to JoA and go with CRCR. Ive always thought Perfect From Now On was BTS's most popular, but it appears Im not alone in liking Secret more, so we'll go with that. Doolittle is awesome, and I'll put in Where is my Mind? for good measure. Darkness is a personal favourite, and I want to spread the word. The last 4 spoon albums were mentioned in this thread, and picking one is damn hard. I've always like Moonlight best. Big leave outs: Loveless... is it getting dated? I had this in originally. Oh, Inverted World...he already has shins stuff, otherwise its in. TOTBL... No real reason not to include it, just, 12 isnt a big number. GO! Team...too weird, though still amazing 69 Love songs... This isnt mentioned as often as it deserves to be Source Tags and Codes...would be in my top 12, but perhaps a little too heavy for some. |

You still left off Smith. But he's one of those that I allways wanna pick up but allways forget when I'm in the store. Did you guys ever come to a consensus on the "either/or"/"XO" debate I don't remember seeing it but plan on rereading this thread and picking up a few more that were mentioned but didn't make the cut. Horay for holiday money and giftcards. |
