Gomez
I just heard How We operate--Live on KEXP's podcast (Granted, this is fairly old because I haven't listened to their song of the day cast in ages), and it was fairly good. What's worth checking out?

“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.”

I love Gomez - check out Liquid Skin (my favourite), as well as In Our Gun, Brig It On and Split The Difference.


Of those Split The Difference is IMO the weakest, but still quality.

I thought I made a thread about them here years ago but seemingly not. Bring It On if their best album, followed by Liquid Skin and In Our Gun. Used to love Gomez and still do love those first two albums, I could listen to them back to back right now.

Split The Difference is alright, last album there I haven't listened to. I saw them live around the time it came out and none of their new work stood out for me, seemed to move away from their old, summery sound that I feel like I grew up with.

Wouldn't it just figure. Gomez is on eMusic, but none of the albums Nunder mentioned. Looks like I'll have to go aboot it the old fashioned way and buy the discs.

Bring It On and Liquid Skin are essential. If you got those you're pretty set. Perfect time of year to start listening to some Gomez too.

This is what I love about half.com. I got four of their CCs for like 15 bucks...The cost of a brand effin' new CD.

Liquid Skin's probably my favorite so far.
