man Fiona has aged well, caught her last night on Jimmy Fallon. gonna peep out her new album when i get a chance. got any good rock recommendations? i peeped out the new ramona falls and it was ok to me, i was hoping for something a bit more funkier and heavier ala " I Say Fever", still, not a bad album

Hey man, if you're the dude behind Hectic Zeniths I just wanted to say that I really dig it. If not, then have a good day.

what makes you say that? i like curve but never really got into them. i like garbage and elastica way more, but then i heard them a few years earlier and constantly on the radio. i don't really hear the comparison to elastica beyond the basics, but curve's claim to fame is that they created a style of music that garbage basically ripped off wholesale. the thing is, garbage wrote way catchier, craftier songs, and maybe their production was a dumbed-down version of curve and other lesser-known but underground hip music, but it was done so well. beneath the layers of distortion i never really found the great songs in curve that i did in garbage, nor the dynamic frontwoman, and to me curve sounds more dated. dated usually isn't a problem for me, but with most '90s shoegaze, especially those bands that incorporated programming, i have to be in the mood for it.

yeah, those first 2 garbage albums are great. their last 2 not so much. enjoy the elastica. maybe in some time you should check out their other studio album, but it's different and found by most people to be disappointing. it took me a while, but i finally ended up enjoying it a lot, although in a different way and not nearly as much as their debut. their 'radio 1 sessions' bbc live album reconciles the differences between sounds/eras nicely. i was so upset when i found out they broke up, and it seems they're a band that will never reunite because there's no public interest and the members are all doing their own thing, mostly outside of music. oh well. i'll always have the first album to bring back a lot of great memories of the '90s, but i think it stands up on its own as great music.

me again. hey, how did you like that elastica album? that was one of my favorite albums growing up. i probably still know it front to back. of course you're playing some other albums i grew up on and love as well, like garbage's debut and aphex's SAW2, but i was most surprised to see anyone playing elastica as it seems like the rest of the world forgot about them.

even i don't like "gantz graf" much. that was when they went deep into noodling territory, like the IDM equivalent of wanky prog rock or zappa. i wouldn't expect you to like that track or much else from that era of the early and mid 2000s, at least not for a long time. you've been listening to the first album so you might as well just go in order, at least with the albums. it'll make a lot more sense than jumping around and should be an easy and enjoyable journey.

'incunabula' is great but ridiculously safe sounding compared to what they would do later; even some of their earlier singles were weirder and bit more challenging than the debut album, which was considered part of the new ambient chillout movement at the time ("artificial intelligence"). with the subsequent albums, Ae made "beats" more of a central focus of their music, refining the sounds and patterns up to the point of abstraction in the late '90s.

Oh yeah! The stats are kinda skewed because of how much I used to listen to him. I haven't put on one of his albums in years. Bricolage and Supermodified are my favorites, each for totally different reasons. Bricolage is very jazz. Supermodified is much more electronica.
