I'm getting pretty tired of the endless Lonely Island singles. Isn't this just Jizz In My Pants with a stereo system instead an O face? Pretty much. 3/10

Liars - Scissor

So great agf why is it not longer why can't it be forever 9/10

Swans - Like a Drug (Sha La La La)

http://www.nmaps.net/user/Yahoozy · Postby **yahoozy** » 2010.03.23 (09:40)

One of my favorite Swans. 8/10

Rapeman - Trouser Minnow

2/10

Really wasnt my song. I didnt like the lyrics, the music or the vocals. D:
1 point for the album cover and 1 point for being named Rapeman.

Juvenile, cookie-cutter pop punk. I took the breakdown at 2:45 as a personal insult. This is something I would expect to hear as the music for a chase scene on a Saturday morning cartoon. It's nothing music. It's filler. 0/10

Gospel - Yr Electric Surge Is Sweet

2.5/10

Minus 7.5 for vocalizing at the beginning. Instrumental four minutes were okay.

Monsters Of Folk -- "Say Please"

Pretty catchy.

Intronaut - Any Port

http://www.nmaps.net/user/Yahoozy · Postby **yahoozy** » 2010.04.03 (17:48)

Six; it's good, but I feel like post-metal is becoming as cut-copy as post-rock in its current state.

Rachel's - Esperanza

Postby **otters~1** » 2010.04.04 (06:07)

8/10

Pretty and relaxing. I was able to enjoy this both actively and as background music.

Requiem For A Tower -- Escala

Song's history.

Also, whoever listens to this, please note the frankly baffling Youtube comment from below: "Is it just me or does it feel like the song just kindda drops off. Almost like there's no ending. That's my only problem with the song."

Listen to the song and ponder that comment.

This has always been one of my favorites songs ever. It is beautiful, epic and powerful. 9.5/10

In a way I agree that it kinda drops off but I dont really mind that, I just wish the song was longer. D;

Hmm, now, I am a ridiculously large fan of Hold On Now, Youngster; so it kind really makes me sad to listen to Los Camp without feeling drawn into the chaos, but this just doesn't satisfy me... :(

I'd go for 5/10

I don't really get LCD Soundsystem. I asked Rincewind what the attraction is and he said that it's "catchy". I guess it is. It gets my foot tapping but, I mean, so does most of the stuff on radio stations with names like The Mix, etc. I know it's not just me. Reviews for that album have been pretty lackluster. 4/10

Slagsmålsklubben - Sponsored by destiny

I quite enjoyed the video. Infograph type pictures and videos always were always interesting to me. The song was also very good, though I wanted it to pick up a little more. 7/10.

DJ Shadow - Building Steam with a Grain of Salt

I actually quite liked this. Smaller edits and "smarter" than most dance music I've heard. 8/10 and I'm going to check out their album.

Yma Sumac - Chuncho

http://www.nmaps.net/user/Yahoozy · Postby **yahoozy** » 2010.07.12 (03:10)

Six - it's funny, I like this song because of the cello line. I feel like vocals are best used as an instrument when they have some context. Otherwise, you have Mike Patton.

New Order - Regret, because I'm feeling extra nostalgic.

http://nmaps.net/user/ · Postby **capt_weasle** » 2010.07.12 (19:51)

Eight/Ten. I must admit the only song I ever really listened to by New Order was Blue Monday, but this is great.

The Natural History - Don't You Ever

well it's a very touching song, but I'm not get much enjoyment out of it. That kind of music doesn't usually do it for me, unfortunately. 3/10
