mirah - you think it's like this but really it's like this
i noticed a karate discussion a few pages back. what's the general consensus on the best karate album?
i think it's 'unsolved'. i mean, it closes with this day next year. what more do you need?

some boots, the bed is in the ocean, and unsolved are the one's I've heard and liked. some boots and unsolved are more jazz/blues influenced, so if that's your thing.
what about the secret stars? Pre-Ida east coast band of Geoff Farina and Jodi Buonanno -- they had a couple releases on Simple Machines (Tsunami, Ida, etc.) Great stuff. Their song, Shoe-In, is great. Ida actually does a great cover of it, too. After discovering Karate years and years ago, I started reading all the crazy info on the Secret Stars site -- Geoff Farina's Fender Tube Amp Modifications (have you noticed the flawless guitar sound on those Karate albums?) and his dissertation on Synth Modifications through popular music and jazz (Herbie Hancock et al.) I don't know if all that reading material is still on the web, but it's a wealth of knowledge.

-trunkspaceAll the time when I tell people what I do they say, "Oh I don't understand art, I can't even draw." (or worse, "I only like art I can understand.") Well, ya know what, I don't know how to make a car, but I sure appreciate being able to drive one.

I love "The Bed is in the Ocean" and would consider it their best album. It's got enough of their jazz leaning to keep it interesting, but still rock. Diazapam, Bass Sounds and Not To Call the Police are such good tracks. Actually There are Ghosts and Not to Call the Police are perfect bookends. Pretty much sum up the progression of that album.i noticed a karate discussion a few pages back. what's the general consensus on the best karate album?

I really like Unsolved as well. Sever and Halo of the Strange are great too, along with This Day Next Year.
