Well, it was like 10 years ago. Nowadays I don't really care what others think about the music I listen. Anyways, for some reason this album came to my mind recently, and I had to listen to it again. I still don't hate it. At least it's no worse than Bon Iver.

I did something similar not so long ago. It was more about revisiting some of the music I listened in my early twenties though. Bands like:
Early Day Minors The Mutton Birds The Velvet Teen Xploding Plastix Mi Doi Todd Kreg Viesselman Euphone Damien Jurado Dismemberment Plan Logh
It was all about discovering new bands back then. Now I couldn't care less. I mean I still check out new music every now and then, but nowadays it's more about discovering old music, e.g. great jazz recorded in the 50's and 60's that I have not yet heard.

I completely forgot about The Velvet Teen. I think they were from CA but had some sort of connection in OR, or maybe just liked playing in Portland a lot? I saw them a couple times in the early aughts, but can't remember much more than that. I feel like maybe they opened for Cursive or something.

I think I discovered them through Pandora. Elysium is probably the only album of theirs I listened. This was one of my favorites as I recall:
The Dismemberment Plan were great -- "Emergency and I" and "Change" are some of my favorite turn-of-century indie records, many of which haven't held up for me very well (looking at you, Modest Mouse).

I reject the thread premise, but I'm bored and want to be part of the conversation, so:
Eddie Vedder RHCP Carly Rae Jepson STP's Shangri-La album Katy Perry Guns n Roses Use Your Illusion albums A lot of early 90s pop The Postal Service Sheryl Crow
