  1. There's a new record right now that I really like, the new Deerhunter Monomania. It's not as weird as their previous albums but still damn good.

    1. @thevoid99: I liked a few tracks on Halcyon Digest (2010), so we'll see if Monomania grabs my attention. Thanks for telling.

  3. I quite like Dido's voice, whenever it's on the radio, I don't turn the channel :D Haven't heard of the rest [sheepish smile]

    1. @Ruth: I like her vocal too. I wouldn't call this Dido's best album, though it does have a number of pretty good tracks.

    2. Is it just me or Dido's voice is similar to The Cranberries' vocalist Dolores O'Riordan's?

      Delete
    3. @Ruth: Depends on the song. In my opinion, a track such as "Dreams" by The Cranberries not so much, but on certain tracks like "Ordinary Day" by Dolores O'Riordan, then there are definitely similarities.

    1. @Jaina: It's worth a try. How to Destroy Angels album reminds me of the music from Fight Club.

    1. @Eric: I guess my post was pretty useful then :) If you like the soundtracks of Trent Reznor, there's a good chance you'll get into his side-project How to Destroy Angels.
