As for the no bass part, many bands I like have no bass so that isn't a deal-breaker for me: Yeah Yeah Yeah's Giant Drag Jucifer The Kills Does anyone remember when the guy from Red Kross placed the White Blood Cells album online with bass parts he added himself? Busting out Red Kross? 
To answer the question,  NO! I need a copy of that!That was a loooong time ago. I never heard them myself, but the idea sounds very cool. | |

[Edited 6/26/07 14:39pm] The Doors? I know there is no official bassist in the band, but is there bass on their albums? I should know this. Gotta play some Doors tracks when I get home. There may be on a couple tracks, but Ray played most of it on keyboards. Jack does it on guitar, like the Beatles did on Two Of Us I wouldn't mind some bass, but I only occasionaly find it's lacking in the W.S. records. My Legacy

While listening to the first three tracks, I thought Jack White was god. Then it trailed off a little and now I think he's just great.
I also picked up Nick Cave's Grinderman project which is cool too. I like it much more than regular Nick Cave which I find to be a little grating after awhile. Grinderman, White Stripes--I'm all set for the tour next month. | |

Ok so I have the new cd. I just haven't played it yet. 
I will though. Tonight.  "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

I've really only heard Let Love In, but that album has stuck with me despite not having heard it for years. My Legacy

I have a lot of friends that like Nick Cave, but I just don't find his voice appealing at all. His duets with PJ Harvey and Kylie Minogue are nice since their vocals temper his a little. On Grinderman his voice is a little more snarl-y which I think works for the more rough and dirty sound of the album. | |

List each song and put an appropriate emoticon after it that describes how you feel about it.
Although that might take even longer than a written review for you knowing how much of those things you have stored. | |

Nick Cave? Since I'll be seeing them live next month, I have to get the album. I also have to pick up Nick Cave's Grinderman since they will be opening. Sounds like a really good bill. 
Sounds like a great show. | |
