best. thread. on Obner. ever.

really enjoying this one right now:


the strange boys - be brave


need to check out their album from last year now.

sweet! thanks!

Franz Ferdinand - The Eyes of Mars

new single plus four live versions of hits

no. not. even. close.

there have been so many

For a thread to really count, we need OPA! in here trashing Spake Kitty.

tell me a bit about this one.

why, because it doesn't feature enough throwaway world music?

please.

Thus Spake Ditty.

Nice.

ohg good one. You got me good.

I'm not criticizing this thread, just having some perspective. There's nothing in this thread that you couldn't find if you know how to use google and there's virtually no music discussion beyond the "it's great" or "meh" or "it sucks." This thread doesn't hold a candle to the tenner thread.

but how would you know you wanted to search for it on google if you didn't first come to this thread

well "you" in the general sense

that tenner thread was good

dale

was def good, but i've discovered some really great shit from this thread.

re-up on The Strange Boys album dudes.

search SUCKS on this board.

anyone have a direct link to the Tenner threads? i need a re-visit.

i was just alluding to the fact that that thread was also your idea

should be pretty high up in the mix forum still, or at least page 2

And if I didn't already know I wanted the album enough to search for it, how am I supposed to know I want to dl it from this thread? because of the album cover? because of the intriguing combination of letters and numbers next to the mourl.com? or am I just going to always assume something always posted by an obner is worth my time?

I know there's no putting the genie back in the bottle but I miss the days before ysi's and rapidshare existed when we actually discussed music beyond "YSIPKTHX" and "It's good" or "Meh". You know back when you had to be convinced to buy cds and you'd make an effort to actually make an intelligent case for a band or an album you love to try to convince others to do the same. That all seemed to end with the ability to just dl an album and try it for yourself.

But whatever - to each his own.

You guys realize when you complain about the search function that you can just google whatever you are looking for the addition of site:obner.org to your request, right?

It was pretty easy to find these:

Totally. I mean obvs some folks have tastes that differ from mine, but that's cool.

If someone here or hpn or wherever else takes the time (however little is required these days, to be fair) to recommend/post something...yeah, I'm entirely more inclined to taking a chance on it than, say, bolachas/nodata and the like (not that they're bad either).

Nice. Thanks, Rads.
