        SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                        It's.. i dunno.. better harmonies and hooks? more stylistical whole?... type "miracle drug" into amazon for a free mp3.. although it's not the best on the album.. sign up at allofmp3.com and give it a good listen & buy.. or maybe last.fm and try and pick "out on the table" & "most of us are prize fighters" and try and listen. I don't really do filesharing. maybe it's easier that way.

                                Neither album is great all the way through (what album is these days?), but there are bright spots.

                                If you were a Smashing Pumpkins fan around 1997, you'll remember they started experimenting with electronic sounds. This Corgan album seems to be a continuation of that. It's nothing like Zwan or the last couple Pumpkins albums.

                                The Oasis album is carried by Noel's two songs. Liam isn't bad, but the style of this album is unlike what they've done in the past and it's always going to be hard to beat how he sounded on Morning Glory.

                                    Is the pope catholic? yeah i kinda accidentally left them off my list.. I ignored them for a while but on the strength of repeated exposure to the single's videoclip on late night rage (music vid program here) i eventually bought the CD. It's good shit. Slower growing but the better for it.

                                            im really an album person, I can't really listen to artists who don't have albums that are good from beginning to end. I don't use shuffle..reminds me of the radio. Are there any albums from that crew that are solid that i should check out?

                                            Twin Cinema was hyped up to be that crew's crowning achievement thus far, so after dismissing that, I never looked into anything else...

I don't use shuffle..reminds me of the radio. Are there any albums from that crew that are solid that i should check out?

                                                                        Twin Cinema was hyped up to be that crew's crowning achievement thus far, so after dismissing that, I never looked into anything else...
                                                                        Slow wonder is a great album.. but there are always stand out tracks.. even illinois tones it's greatness right down after wasps.. it's better than twin cinema.

Mix of early hip hop, 70`s funk and fucking action theme songs.It`s something similar to the The Avalanches but way more harmonic. The use of retro sounds blend just perfectly. With most albums i usually like 3-4 songs tops, but here every damn song is so addictive.
