liz phair–exile in guyville
eminem–the slim shady lp (laugh all you want)
any ben folds fiveNo way can I listen to liz phair, that was my girlfriends favorite. It hurts to see her in magazines now and see her reviews
Thalia Zedek – "Been Here And Gone"
Now, the whole album is pretty heavy, emotionally, and I don’t know if these songs make you feel good or even better, but the last one, "Manha De Carnaval" or "A Day In The Life Of A Fool" as is the English title, has a certain ability to help you deal with the "unbearable lightness of being". Hm, that sounded weird. It’s kinda like a softer & more quiet version of the feeling you get when listening to "Start Choppin’" or thinking to yourself "I’m Insane"… Did that help? Hmmm…
Other than that I’d heavily recommend most Daniel Johnston songs! Right now "Syrup of Tears" off the new album "Fear Yourself" amazes me no end!yeah I’ve been listening to "fear yourself".
that one song. I love you but your breaking my heart I love you and your tearing me apart…

yikes. pretend its your ex getting terrible reviews.16 Horsepower are always good
It`s a compilation of demos and live tracks so it`s problably really interesting
"forget the swan" wrote:Has anyone heard the new 16 Horsepower? Is it any good?Like SG said it isn’t really new, in fact the recordings are from 1993 and 1994, so they are up to two years older than their first official release, but it’s a great album! To quote David Eugene Edwards from a small piece of an interview included on the cd: "Whether you like it or not, it’s going to affect you."
