try the bands "wolf eyes" and "lightning bolt" especially if you're into melodic guitar pop bands

 

[killyridols]

and black dice/animal collective.

 

[Ollz San]

Belle And Sebastian (got their new CD at HMV)

Rilo Kiley

The Reindeer Sectioni

Neutral Milk Hotel

Xiu Xiu

Arab Strab

Snow Patrol

The Olivia Tremor Control

It's generally hard to get the CDs. I usually go to Ten Seconds Down in Chatswood. But it's still hard to find.

black foliage > all other OTC albums.

 

[mcdickpants 2.5]

and black dice/animal collective.

[Trippendicular]

Sonic Youth

 

[Ollz San]

where do you guys get your music?

Can't find most bands anywhere. Maybe I'm looking at the wrong place?

I really want Rilo Kiley CD.

some stores in the city have awesome music - there's this one near the cinemas on george street, its kind of underground (like literally below street level) that has great music. failing that, just ask the people at sanity or whatever to order them in for you .. or get them off amazon.com which is usually cheaper even with shipping. damn americans paying $13 for cds.

 

[Ollz San]

thanks I'll look to that

 

[thejosiekiller]

that store is called utopia

you can also try red eye records near wynyard if you want

 

[katietheskatie]

that's the one. i don't think red eye records is as good though .. it has a lot more eclectic stuff, if you're looking for more recent things then utopia is probably better.

 

[Ollz San]

yes yes, utopia. been there. got the maddest collection of metal.

but I'd go again with indie stuff in mind.

 

[Trev]

damn that utopia shop, its great but ages ago i bought 2 posters from there (20$ each, i thought both of them were metallica), i got home, (6 hours away - in port), and they were a damn band ive never heard before "the dead kenedy's"...pretty kool poster tho

 

[Trev]

oh yeh, and that place is full of wierdo's
lol, saw some guy that had pink and black stockings, some big leather boots with metal spikes and all this other shit.....like wtf

 

[Ollz San]

oh boots. I want newrock boots. They're freakin expensive.

anyway, yep, you see all kind of people. But it's nothing compare to Newtown. See for yourself.

I wear metal spikes *hides*

[killyridols]
