Help me fill my Ipod...

[The Balanced Man]

Hey all,

I'm currently purusing the public library for CD's to add to my MP3 collection. The library here has all of the new stuff; it's really nice.

Just wondering if anyone would like to nominate a CD to add to the old list of MP3's...

Essentially, what is your favorite album, or just one you really like, and any songs inparticular you are a fan of.


One of my recent favorites:



Jurassic 5, Power in Numbers

Fav Song: What's Golden

[steelerfan513]

Toxicity, System of a Down

Favorite songs: Toxicity and Chop Suey! are awesome; many other very good songs; a great overall album

If you like Sublime, get:

Slightly Stoopid - "Closer to the Sun"
Slightly Stoopid - "Everything You Need"

Great albums. Dunno if your library would have them, though.

Also:

Massive Attack - "Mezzanine"
Tool - "Aenima"
Radiohead - "OK Computer"
Pixies - "Doolittle"
Ben Harper - "Both Sides of the Gun"
Ben Harper - "There Will Be A Light"
Jack Johnson - "Brushfire Fairytales"
Jack Johnson - "On and On"

Of course.. none of that stuff is really all that new. Except the first Ben Harper album.

If you like Sublime, get:

Slightly Stoopid - "Closer to the Sun"
Slightly Stoopid - "Everything You Need"

Great albums. Dunno if your library would have them, though.

I dug Slightly Stoopid's 'Acoustic Roots Live & Direct' more than those, but I definitely agree with the recommendation.

And if you're into Slightly Stoopid, or Sublime, or Jack Johnson... whatever... you should check out Dispatch's 'Bang Bang'. That's a good one... don't know about their other stuff, though. I tried 'Silent Steeples' and thought it sucked.

But yeah, I got a ton of CDs from my local library. They actually have a really good selection.
