What's that like? I really liked their first album but had kind of moved on by the time that one came out.

More focused and poignant than Private Revolution, IMO. Of course Jumbo holds a special place in my heart due to it being the very first CD I acquired as a kid, but of course it didn't really click back then. It really has some wonderful moments.

John Hiatt - Crossing Muddy Waters (SACD)

Nice! I know many aren't too impressed with that Varga album as I am, but I will be playing that album when I'm in diapers. And yeah, that Therapy? album is an EP. Another amazing band, if you can dig on alt-rock.

That Varga album is insane! Heavy stuff, catchy, great songwriting while being very different at the same time. I should say thank you for recommending that and the Therapy?, which I dig as well.

'Twas a good haul for all of five bucks, although it was over four hours of rummaging.

Death Penalty - Sign of the Times (7" Clr vinyl)
Saturn - Ascending (Live in Space) (Clr vinyl)
Autumns Dawn - Autumns Dawn EP (White vinyl)
Radiation - Plutonium Overdose EP (7" vinyl)
Hell on Earth - MFN comp (Red vinyl) Considering how important this record was to my metal education, and my intro to Metallica & Mercyful Fate, it's pretty criminal that I haven't re bought it before now.

Today:

Jag Panzer - Thane To The Throne
Night Ranger - High Road (CD/DVD w/Bonus Tracks)
Random Jon Poole - Random Jon Poole (Authographed)

John Hiatt - Bring the Family

Apocalypse - Apocalypse (Vinyl)
Wolf Spider - Kingdom of Paranoia (Vinyl)

Pre-ordered the new Overkill album!

Wrathchild America - 3-D

New CDs that came in while I was away:

Beasto Blanco - Live Fast Die Loud
Epitaph - Dancing With Ghosts (w/Bonus Tracks)
Paris - Only One Life
Sideburn - Gasoline (w/Bonus Tracks)
Signal Lost - Children Of The Wasteland

That Beasto Blanco tune has some charm to it.

Agreed, for some reason it has a Zodiac Mindwarp kind of vibe (although the music isn't that similar)

I bought

Electric Citizen - Sateen (red vinyl)

Faster P*ssycat - Whipped

EDIT: we really need to allow cussing around here...  

Rhett Forrester - Gone With The Wind

I don't think it is a censorship or moral issue. I think it was more of a workaround for computers that might have filters or blockers on them for folks in the workplace.

If you want to review a new album as a c***goblin, mother f***ing, master-f***ing-piece, you're gonna need to be more creative. Balls.

Queen- Days of Our Lives (DVD)

The Darkness - Permission to Land
The Darkness - One Way Ticket to Hell
Foreigner - Can't Slow Down Mini-Album
Stryper - Soldiers Under Command

Quote :

World Party - Goodbye Jumbo

A deserted island disc for me. An album that came along at the perfect time in my life and still holds up to this day. Greatest Stones-y record the Stones never made IMO.

Winger - Better Days Comin' cd/dvd
Billy Squier - Don't Say No (can't believe I didn't already own this on cd)
