ALBUMS you've been digging lately

Animal Boy by The Ramones

The Buzzcocks - Love Bites
Bauhaus - Burning from the Inside

Actually, Pet Sounds is the entirety of the Beach Boys that I have heard to date. I will check out your suggestions the next time I have a bit of cash to burn on iTunes, because I think Pet Sounds is just brilliant.

Some minor explicit lyrics.

I should probably warn you that those albums are very different, though many fans love them as well at Pet Sounds. Smiley Smile was mostly recorded at home, and Love You is mostly synthesizer.

I also agree with you about Pet Sounds. I love the album and the recording sessions box set. I also really enjoy the unfinished Smile, which would have been the album after Pet Sounds. I believe iTunes has a lot of that material as well, though (in case you don't know) I'll warn you that many of the songs are missing vocals since the recordings weren't finished.

Some of what I've been listening to lately:

Arkona - Yav
5IVE - Telestic Disfracture (This is the 5IVE from Boston, MA, NOT the cheezy British boy band)
The Birthday Party - Junkyard
Igra Staklih Perli - First release from 1979, sometimes called Lizard Square
Seven That Spells - The Death & Resurrection of Krautrock 2:IO
Thw Cramps - Songs The Lord Taught Us
Beastie Boys - Ill Communication

Damon Albarn and Michael Nyman - Ravenous film score

I am not allowed to post links yet due to being brand new but I've been digging Joy Division's 1979 debut album Unknown Pleasures since I first heard it in 2006. That album helped make me into a snob that listens almost exclusively to anything that sounds remotely postpunk or new wave lol.

Hey, Factory Ten, have you ever listened to Cult of Youth? Their self-titled album is pretty good and sounds like a mixture of the Pogues and Joy Division.

Danzig - Danzig
Stereolab - Transient Random-Noise Bursts with Announcements
The Chemical Brothers - Push the Button

I like the basslines from the songs I just heard and I liked their songs "The New West" and "Lorelei". Some of their songs are a little too aggressive for me though. To me, an example of a perfect song is Winter Severity Index's "A Sudden Cold". I love the slow-burning side of post punk and I feel this song has that.

Winter Severity Index / "A Sudden Cold" / 2014
