Great choice, beautiful song.

Did you listen to the other "Hardcore..." bonus track--that 25-minute "Singing Mountain" thing?

Yeah, i don't think i made it through the whole thing though :haha:
Slight Domestic might not be their best song of the year but it's tied to a very memorable time for me. The main reason i chose that one.

MF, nice work on the Rosetta! is that the one from the Junius split?

Yup. I love that band. They released a download only cover of soundgarden's 4th of july that occampanied it as well. It was interesting but ultimately nowhere near as good as the original.

that "somebody that I used to know" song has grown on me. pretty darn good. nice to see You're True on that list, as it is obviously the best song on that record.

tried that Weeknd album out and just don't like it. It's okay but the buzz is huge. Maybe just not my thing. The swearing on the first song i heard sounded very forced

if you've not seen/heard the Gotye song check it out. Infectious

Not that I have discerning tastes, but this Gotye business bothers me because it sounds like its straight out of the 1980s. Styles have changed, yanno?
