They're playing here tonight, couldn't go though. I've heard good things about the new album (3 discs? did I hear that right?)

[Jeff]

Yes, three discs. I've barely scratched the surface of it so can't comment on anything but the single so far.

[HongKongFooey]

I used to like Thrush Hermit too and I liked his last album so I'll probably pick up this one. He's consistently good but three discs, wow, that's ambitious.

Deliberately?

Deliberately. I live in an old house with no central and terribly drafty windows, so running a 220 unit all summer is really, really expensive. I've installed blackout curtains, and I've got fans and frozen 2 liter bottles for the bunnies. In theory I can open the windows and run the fans all night, then get up early and shut them and trap the nighttime coolness in for most of the day. I'll turn the A/C on if the indoor temperature exceeds 90 degrees, but I'm hoping that won't be until August, which is the hottest month around here.

[Yorikke]

My wife is watching fucking cocksucking Twilight again. That's what I'm listening to...

Joe

[Sleel]

"Dirty Willy," Lords of Acid. And co-workers speaking Japanese. Something about the bloody hair-length inspections. Again.

I'm listening to The Sea And Cake right now.

Again implies she's already seen it at least once? ~shudders~ Just watching the trailer was painful for me.

I'm listening to Woke Up This Morning by A3. I miss The Sopranos.

[Khampelf]

I haven't read the thread, but it was the first time I saw it when I was actually listening to something.

'Tangled up in Blue' - Bob Dylan

[Moon Dog]

Ministry - Jesus Built My Hotrod*

*(Short, Pusillanimous, So-They-Can-Fit-More Commercials-On-The-Radio Edit)

[Anacanapuna]

John Mellencamp. I have a hard drive filled with rock-ish pop music; it's what I listen to when I'm posting or writing. I fills my brain with good vibes, makes it easier to write.

More than three times yet? Because I think you can legally kill someone if it's more than three times a month.

Every now and again my CD drive makes this godawful whining.

Your plan will probably work pretty well, sounds like what we used to do in the old days. Also, if you get too hot, take a trip to WalMart for a spell.

Anyways, I'm listening to Passing by, Ulrich Schnauss, off of Far Away Trains Passing By. The last few artists & songs in the queue have been:

Underworld - St. Pancras
Windy & Carl - Opiate
The Sight Below - Further Away
Roger Eno - Room Without Lights

[schnuckiputzi]

Magdalene Laundries from a Chieftains album. Prompted me to do some research on the term and horrified me to no end.

[Carolia]

Barenaked Ladies - Snacktime

It's their children's album, and my girl is in charge of the CD player right now. I like it, though!

[Sleeps With Butterflies]

Duffy's Rockferry CD and the new Tori Amos single.

[freudian_slip]

Hit That Perfect Beat by Bronski Beat (the club mix)

[Hunter Hawk]

Otras by David Reeves; it's ambient analog electronica from the early '90s. Not bad, but I think I prefer Len Del Rio's work.

I was discussing Genius with another iTunes user and they were dead chuffed with the whole affair, whereas I am utterly underwhelmed, and would much rather create playlists personally. The thing is, I love playlists/compilations et al and was looking forward to checking genius out when the upgrade came, but it's all just so, I dunno, obvious?

This morning's commute list...

Fortune Teller - The Who
Kiss Like an Angel - Weston
Let Me Die in My Footsteps - Bob Dylan
Through a Hole - Whispertown2000
It's Late - Queen
A Fool in Love - Ike and Tina Turner
Play with Fire - Cobra Verde
Coney Island Baby - Lou Reed
Falling Slowly - The Frames
Paper Planes - M.I.A.

What can I say? I'm very easily pleased

Heh, I was just thinking to myself, what did I expect it to do? Masssage my feet whilst trawling my higher brain functions to predict exactly what I wanted to hear?

6/Half a Dozen

[Tasteslikeburning]

Bill Callahan - Sometimes I Wish We Were an Eagle

This is the guy who previously sung under the name Smog.

Thren, like your picks. I've been listening to Santogold a fair bit lately and think her album kicks arse. Based on a couple of your choices, I think you should check out Andrew Bird, especially the album Armchair Apocrypha.

[HongKongFooey]

I prefer the Redline/Whiteline edit but the name isn't as good.

Love Smog - how 'Smoggy' is Bill's solo/differently produced stuff? I've yet to hear any...

[Tasteslikeburning]

I personally don't think there's much difference at all. As you'd know, his voice is unmistakeable.

I noticed The Frames on one of your lists, do you have the whole album of the Once soundtrack?

[Jay Tea]

I do indeed, very good it is too.

[Tasteslikeburning]

Yes, fantastic album and movie. Say It to Me Now sounds to me like somebody singing for their life.

[Dazzling White Diamonds]

Hee!

[Sr. Siete]

Butch Walker - Closer to the truth and further from the sky. So damn awesome.

[WednesdayAddams]

David Gray - The One I Love

[Moon Dog]

Rob Zombie - Dead Girl Superstar.

He's such a romantic.

[Doyle]

The album Ignis Fatuus by White Willow

[Moon Dog]

Queensryche - AT 30,000 FT

Anyone who gave up on 'em during those crap years really should give American Soldier a chance. Flawed but still one of the better theme albums I've heard for a while.

[Doyle]

After Crying - Rondo

[Sgt. Max Fightmaster]

You're going to BURN IN HELL!

I-- I don't know. It's so terrible but so awesome.

[Ichigodaisuki]

I listen to this when I am online.
Strange, but I listen often.

[Meurglys]

Syntelman's March Of The Roaring Seventies from Amon Duul II, soon to be followed by the rest of Dance of the Lemmings...

[Euryphaessa]

Long Days by David & the Citizens, my current favorite song of the moment. I've been listening to a lot of David & the Citizens lately, as well as Charlotte Martin, Manic Street Preachers, Does It Offend You, Yeah?, Muse, Lady GaGa, Scissor Sisters and Pearl Jam (my favorite band going on 6 years).
