Lonesome Crowded West is a great album.

So is Doolittle, it's what I've listened to most over the last couple of months.

I found that at Goodwill for 3$ a little more than a week ago. But, sadly, it was a burned copy (it was in the original case, though).

My search for used Pixies cds continues...

Rock and Roll has produced nearly nothing substantial from new artists in roughly 12 years. Those of you born after 1978 are to blame for this. You haven't pulled your creative weight at all. Too absorbed in your 92 second Youtube videos is what i think.

Try Jools Holland's Later on BBC2 Friday nights. Sometimes, good new acts.

Just buy new or something - very worth it.

I know, I wouldn't wait that long to buy new. I've gotten lucky finding some other stuff, so I thought I'd give it a shot.

Have a rec on which one I should buy first if I have to go new?

TBH, I've only heard Doolittle...I just can't convince myself to get anything else by them until I've really saturated that album. 🙂

Lol. I probably will start with Doolittle, since that was the first one I found used (even if it was just the case 🙂). I'll go from there

It's amazing. 😉

If you haven't heard Modest Mouse though, definitely Lonesome Crowded West - just amazing...and I've heard all of their albums. 😉

I've heard Modest Mouse. I was actually trying to find an album of theirs to get. I found one once but didn't really like it, but I still wanted to find something else. I'll look for that, now. Thanks.

Do you remember which one? To me the albums all sound very distinct from one another. I like all of them really, yes, even the two new ones.

I think it was called 'Building Nothing Out of Something'. It had 3-4 songs I enjoyed, but I just didn't enjoy the rest of it. Not really sure why, though.
