I've Been thinking about getting..
which means I'll be getting here soon... 'True Stories' by the talking heads and 'Bleed American' by Jimmy Eat World... which i know sounds like a juvenile album, but it was supposedly an important one and 'The Middle' is a good song despite the less astounding chorus, anybody know where they got, if any, influence for that song?

Alright, lookie here kid. You sound like a nice kid. If you're hell-bent on buying a Talking Heads record, don't just buy the one with the tune on it called "Radio Head". True Stories is late-period bullshit, and no, it doesn't sound anything like Radiohead. In fact the Talking Heads as a rule do not. They did release a handful of records that are entertaining enough: 77, More Songs About Buildings and Food, and, in a pinch, Remain in Light. I don't think any of these are great, but they'll do the job, and you won't be wasting $18 on an album that isn't any good purely because your heroes took their name from a tune on it - a tune that, as it turned out, they didn't really like (or so I've heard).

i just bought the remaster of Remain In Light and it is great. This is probably the fourth time i have bought this record. Lp, Tape, CD, Remaster CD.
The double live record is shit hot too! I'm not much of a live record person but this one is incredible.

I agree with 26, Remain in Light is not very exciting. a few good tracks but that overly eno sound doesnt do it for me, reminds me of a few david bowie tracks i dont like.
n also Clarity is a better album than bleed american if u are into emo rock n such

I'm against picketing, but I don't know how to show it.
