i would give you some suggestions, but judging from that list, you listen to all the same shit i do. of montreal is nice, though, if you haven't already checked them out.

HEY FRIEND!! go to my profile and then click on the blog i made. its an overload of good music

The doors the end

of montreal is in my blood. :\
thanksthough.
and lenalenalena, yr my new favorite threadless kid. <3

awesome! but dont thank me, thank the good people and their suggestions

-applause-

i was gonna say elliot smith, how aboutt NEUTRAL MILK HOTEL?! thats waht im digging now.

Also What about heatmiesr, elliot smith's band before he went solo, the songs off of "mic city sons" are really amazing sounds like
figure 8.

oh and if you like shins, did you ever hear "fruit bats" also off of sub pop, and um er.. oooo also if you like iron and wine why not try a bit of Sufjan Stevens!

damn you have a very similar music taste as me so i wanna suggest a lot.. but im trying to think..

OH YES ben folds- or ben folds five

and sondre lerche, or kings of convience!

i hope you agree, it always nice to run into a fellow elliot smith fan.

maybe these are decent suggestoins? i hope..

Can't beat any modest mouse. But maybe not if you don't want anymore "downish" stuff.

Nuetral Milk Hotel is good also, the music is a little more upbeat.

Ha impossiblejosh you beat me to it!

John Coltrane collab with Johnny Hartman is a beautiful album

OOHH YOUR FROM AUSTIN??!?!

please tell me you like slowreader and the impossibles, please? i'll give you 45 thousand dollars if you tell me that.

I second Will Oldham, he goes by various monikers: Bonnie Prince Billy, Palace Music, etc. My favourite albums are I See A Darkness and Viva Last Blues.
Also, in Lena's blog I mentioned Bound Stems and Devin Davis, there both really good. Also, Mirah (C'Mon Miracle is my favourite album, Cold Cold Water is my favourite song) and the Microphones (It Was Hot We Stayed In The Water and The Glow, Pt. 2 are both amazing albums, I Want Wind To Blow is my favourite song), are both amazing.

nobody here likes my music

^fuck, that's they're not there. I hate when people do that. And I also second Neutral Milk Hotel. I didn't mention them because I generally just assume everyone has heard of them before and knows of their awesomeness. If you haven't heard them get on it.

haha. the decemberists are already there. okay, i have lots of old modest mouse, and i love it. i have every neutral milk hotel song ever recorded, no exagreattion. plus all of the postal service and all of alltimequarterback, both ben's bands. i like the efforts, though. :]

DEAR IMPOSSIBLEJOSH. im really excited about the elliotsmith band thing, i never even thought back that far. <3 and also, i bounce back between austin and galveston. ((live on the island, go up to austin monthly in the year, more so in the summer. family, friends, MUSICA! haha.)) and yes, i do like slowreader but i only know of them because this girl infront of me at waterloo was a fan. thus, ive heard like two songs that she sent me. D:

hasnt this been fun? :]

see....I just get ignored and lost among the babbling of you indiepop fans

don't get me wrong...I like a good indiepop tune but there's so much other good stuff

steve you reccomended me ted leo! i love you and your music!

then you definitely would enjoy John Coltrane/Johnny Hartman stuff

^Yeah, Steve you listed some awesome bands there, it's just that they weren't really in the same vein as the stuff she listed. Love The Doors and Miles Davis especially.

Hey E-husband.

I've had "Counting Down The Hours" on loop for like a half an hour. Probably my favorite Ted song.

It's "get drunk and sing (scream?) along and dance" music.

for some great xmas beats:

THANK YOU AND GOOD DAY!

you should try Sufjan Stevens..hes kinda like iron and wine. but he fantastic. you should also try the Doves...but their earlier music (they're kinda like coldplay...sorta. but better):) you might like Magnet as well, which is like death cab somewhat...all groups are really great, and from the music you like, i think you might like them

Sufjan Stevens. For sure. "illinois"

oh...oops. so you want stuff that isnt like what you listen to...sorry bout that.
well...here are some good groups/singers...from all different genres

abandoned pools (rock/electronica)
atmosphere (undergroundish hip hop)
and what always brightens my day is
Tammi Terell and Marvin Gaye...they did a cd together...so awesome :) hope some of the groups i mentioned help you with your need for new music ;)

Bet ya dont listen to goldie lookin chain??

SLOWREADER!!!!!!!!!!!! EVERYONE GO ONLINE AND DOWNLOAD IT!

( i say download because thier asshole label put the only cd out of rotation)

everyone who does will not be dissapointed.

GARY NEWMAN YES!!!
OSCAR PETERSON YES!

these are my favorite heatmieser songs.
somebody needs to do a elliot smith design, i wanna try.

he NEVER made any elloit smith merchendise :(

How about some of that (new)Death Cab?

i wish i ownd an elliotsmith shirt. i would wear it everyday until it died in the wash.

orrather, until it killed itself. D:

annnnd i have all the deathcab, back from forever. i just prefer the old stuff cos its not all over.

damn i wish when i was 16.66 years old there were people with such good music taste, meloncauliflowr rules x 10!

haha, i went through hell to get it though.
trustme, i wish i still listened to the radio and thought straight. ireallyreallyreallydo.

yaknow, neitzche theorized that the greeks created music as a way of expressing their isolation, the underlying sadness to their society. and i think maybe thats continued on. D:

mmm, and cant forget highfidelity:: are we sad because we listen to pop music, or do we listen to pop music because we're sad?

eep.
