  • lucy22, on 07/18/2008, -0/+11Hey the digg team gets down.
  • l800LEMMINGS, on 07/17/2008, -2/+11i always wondered why geeks especially coders listened to what i would normally consider boring music but it makes sense that its more about relaxation, concentration, and being productive then the music itself. I personally listen to harder music but i do find i listen to softer stuff when i'm trying to be productive.
  • sockpuppets, on 07/18/2008, -1/+10Kevin Rose is the digg poster boy. He's dreamy.
  • sockpuppets, on 07/18/2008, -0/+8Kevin Rose belongs at Jamba Juice making me a power sized snozzberry smoothie with immunity boost.
  • AmyVernon, on 07/18/2008, -0/+8what?
  • Stradenko, on 07/18/2008, -0/+7You belong in a school, learning the reasons why the things you say are false.

  • philodox1, on 07/18/2008, -2/+8KCRW is the best.
  • s0m31john, on 07/18/2008, -2/+8I submitted the source of this and then this bog spam makes the front page.
  • inactive, on 07/18/2008, -0/+6Front page guys....... front page.

  • xdeliriumx, on 07/18/2008, -1/+6Autumn of the Seraphs was easily one of the best CD no one heard, last year.

    Pinback are gods.
  • inactive, on 07/18/2008, -0/+5Has anyone really been paying attention to Digg lately? I'm afraid Digg 2.0 with be a slightly altered version of "Ow! My Balls!"

    Probably thinking about unloading it pretty soon huh, Kev?

  • danomagnum, on 07/18/2008, -2/+7Who's ever rated them?
  • electricwaffles, on 07/18/2008, -0/+4Someone has been reading Cracked's Digg front page manual.
  • mudpuddle, on 07/18/2008, -0/+4I hope one day you have thousands of people keeping tabs on every thing you do in life, taking every opportunity to judge you on things such as the band you currently like or the donut you chose with your morning coffee.
  • championchap, on 07/18/2008, -1/+4I've rated them.
    The Knife are an incredible band, Karens voice is simply something else!
    Royksopp once got hold of her to sing a song for them, it was called "What else is there"

    So there, thats the 3 of us, me, kevin rose and royksopp.
    The knife are awesome.
  • cupcupcup, on 07/18/2008, -6/+9Kevin Rose cannot program. Buried as inaccurate!
  • inactive, on 07/18/2008, -7/+10BURY!
  • arakasi, on 07/18/2008, -0/+3Pinback is awesome
  • metaphysical, on 07/18/2008, -1/+4Who's ever overrated Pinback or The Knife?
  • StrangeFamous, on 07/18/2008, -0/+3I like MGMT... although I would say that they have a sound better suited for the studio. I saw them play at an Of Montreal show in Philly and the subtleties got a bit lost in the noise.

    Also a big fan of Pinback and Iron & Wine.
  • hode, on 07/18/2008, -4/+7Buried, Kevin Rose
  • ngmcs8203, on 07/18/2008, -1/+4I wouldn't consider Pinback boring IMO, but Sigur Ros is one of my favorite artists to listen to when I want to focus and I can see how people could consider them boring.
  • lordtyros, on 07/18/2008, -1/+3That'd be badass. If I were on the Truman show, I'd smile and jack off all day.
  • seastobble, on 07/18/2008, -0/+2"I've got a twenty dollar bill, Pinback album and some pills..."
  • inactive, on 07/18/2008, -4/+6Kevin rose? I thought kevin rose was for the environment but is now all about Cramer, big business, money

  • xdeliriumx, on 07/18/2008, -1/+3Electric Feel is definitely MGMT's best song. Penelope for Pinback.

    They are all good though.
  • sockpuppets, on 07/18/2008, -1/+36. http://www.badgerbadgerbadger.com/
  • pbone, on 07/18/2008, -0/+2rob crows a legend. he just had a kid little while ago. buy his albums so he can help pay for raising a child.
  • inactive, on 07/18/2008, -0/+2Blue Screen Life.
  • mlirblur, on 07/18/2008, -0/+2How can you consider Pinback boring?
  • inactive, on 07/18/2008, -0/+2pretty sure some people heard them... they've become pretty popular since '05.
  • bdbr, on 07/18/2008, -1/+3I liked "Summer in Abbadon" better...but everybody has their preferences. Pinback makes good music.
  • electricwaffles, on 07/18/2008, -0/+1That's a good point. Surferess forgot to put 'DIGG IT:' in the headline.
  • JoeCool51, on 07/18/2008, -0/+1Boring is a poor word to describe the music. I've always noticed I like to turn on "inspiration music" when I'm designing ***** for websites. Don't get me wrong, I love rock music. But when making graphics or not being able to get some flash coding to work the way I want it to, ambient music helps counter out frustration.
  • CrackyJSquirrel, on 07/18/2008, -0/+1I like my music with a little more balls personally.. But these bands sound like the talented side of their genres, so dugg. :)
  • drawkward84, on 07/18/2008, -1/+2Face palm?
    Fap parade?
  • w3bjunkie, on 07/21/2008, -0/+1I like Pinback too Kevin! We're meant to beeeeeeee
  • championchap, on 07/18/2008, -0/+1The Knife - Pass this on

    In case anyone was curious. Wonderful song, but mellow? Hardly.
  • cifanic, on 07/18/2008, -0/+1There are more sessions too at http://www.kcrw.com. It's also available as a podcast.
