[1623]

One of the reasons I love music so much is because there will always be new artists to discover and enjoy, even if they've been around for a while.

Last night I was watching Jimmy Kimmel and was floored by Mute Math; a band that I had heard of, but never actually listened to.

I'm diggin'

Courtney Love - Mono, I really love the energy an the attitude of this song!

I test music player software so I'm listening to every sort of music all day. If I test with my favorite music too much, I start to hate them after a while.

After work, I tend to prefer classic rock bands, 90s punk/progressive rock stuff. Throw in a little hiphop and R&B in there too. Rush is probably my favorite single band, closely followed by Pink Floyd and Yes.

+1 to Regina!

Looks like there aren't a whole lot of people into the indie rock/pop scene here, so I'm guessing most of you won't have heard of the bands I've been listening to this past week. Bands recently getting playlist love:

Feist
Margot & the Nuclear So and So's
Sufjan Stevens
Low
Sunset Rubdown
Why?

I can say that I've been using Spotify a ton over the past month and love being able to listen to hard-to-find albums and artists (at least hard to find in the US). Lots of obscure, but very talented artists -along with all the major groups- are on Spotify and I'm enjoying discovering more stuff to listen to.

Regina is a great artist. I listened to her previous album for almost a week before I got bored with it. The new one I got sick of after a day or two. Both good, but neither had anything so remarkable that I had to go back to listen to again. =\

I have heard some Feist, a little too out there for me. I have listened to Sufjan Stevens because of the shout from Snow Patrol, but there isn't enough energy in the music.

Dirty Heads, Numb-Drowning Pool

So far today it has been:
PJ Harvey
Steve Earle

[DiKa]

Lately, it's been mostly Pink Floyd at home and CCR in the truck.

+1 for CCR. I'm 32, but grew up listening to these guys in my dad's car. Now MY kid is listening to them in MY car.

Lights - Siberia and Acoustic.

For the past couple weeks:

The Rome Project

collaboration with producer and Spaghetti western composer Daniele Luppi with a few songs featuring Jack White and Norah Jones.

Playing cards with friends the other night--one of the 'darker' songs playing, deep-voiced buddy Jim busted out this quote from Apocalypse Now:

"I watched a snail crawl along the edge of a straight razor.
That's my dream; that's my nightmare.
Crawling,... slithering along the ege
Of a straight razor,..., and surviving."

It was spooky.

The sweet sound of My Blade, (thwak,thwak) as I read these posts and play with My knife!
Enjoy,
Charlie

Tonight...old Kiss.

Awesome - that's what I grew up on. I was grooving to A Flock of Seagulls today, and my wife's playing some nice George Strait right now - gotta love variety.

- best wishes, Jazz.

[2cha]

Nice, your post inspired me to get the album. I have a long drive on Wednesday, I'll give it a full hearing then.

Just got the new Wilco album - The Whole Love. It is starting to grow on me.

Yeah its good stuff. Was listening to Hotter than Hell and Rock and Roll Over. Two of my favourite Kiss albums.


Variety is the spice of life.
