Music?!?!

[Dr. Russell Fell]

Everyone listens to it, but who here is an absolute dork about it like I am? What have you been listening to lately?

I've been way into Greg Cartwright's stuff lately, especially his recent stuff with Reigning Sound. I know he's from Nashville and there seems to be an influx of new members from there. Anyone a fan of Oblivians/Compulsive Gamblers?

I am absolute dork ... I love pretty much everything ... R&B, HipHop, Punk Rock, Oldies, and even country ... LOL.

My current favorite song is below

YouTube - Just Like Me ft. T.I. - Jamie Foxx

OH MAN I had no idea Jamie Foxx was doing R&B. I mean, I knew that was his thing, but I didn't know he was now following through with it seriously. Awesome.

I love R&B, but the older stuff. And I LOVE rap. I'm a huge early 90's east coast and dirty south fan. Love me some Wu-Tang Clan, Smif-N-Wessun, Black Moon, Three 6 Mafia, Project Pat, DJ Screw, etc. LOVE chopped & screwed stuff of course.

 

[EonBlue]

Acid Bath - Scream of the Butterfly

 

[sixstring]

Lot's of Rush until the '90s, Boston, Dream Theater, King's X, Queen, Queensryche, anything with complicated guitars... You kind of see where my head's at.

This is one of my favorite times of year for music. Everyone starts coming out with their yearly best of lists and I can catch up on all the great albums I missed out on hearing about - or never got around to buying. I went on a bit of a digital shopping spree last night - focusing on the folkier more acoustic side of things. Next week - electronics!

Last night I downloaded:

Fascinoma - Fascinoma
Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes
A Larum - Johnny Flynn
Asking For Flowers - Kathleen Edwards
Rook - Shearwater
Un Dia - Juana Molina

I haven't made my way through all of them yet, but so far me likey!

I'm really behind on music from 2008 unfortunately...

For some reason, I have been listening to a bunch of Tom Waits lately.. Really good stuff. That and a bunch of Daft Punk (All time fav's)..

I am also listening to a lot of the new Kanye West stuff (Heartless, Love Lockdown).. good stuff IMO.

Big fan of Tom Waits, Nick Cave, Sun Ra, Captain Beefheart... list goes on.

Lately though, I've been getting into the african jazz and blues scene.

Here's some Momo Wandel Soumah:

[dtmack]

I listen to an incredible amount of music. all different styles. but i guess my top three would be Sublime, The Beatles and Alkaline Tio

 

[LakotaRose]

Massive Attack - Daydreaming

It's a catchy tune that's stuck in my head...skip the first minute of insect churping.

I was never into the two former (i hate third-wave ska and everyone and their grandmother loves the Beatles and I like them a bit too), but I was big on Alkaline Trio in high school. Now I can't stand them.

well i wouldn't really call sublime strictly ska as they mix many different types of music, ska being one of them, but reggae, punk, dancehall, hip-hop, acoustic being their other styles. But after buying Alkaline Trio's latest album and listening to Matt Skibas solo project the Heavens, i realize they're starting to get a little stale

Well third wave ska is basically just ska revival with more punk influences. They're a third wave ska band by definition, and probably one of the first of that subgenre.

I used to love the first two Alkaline Trio albums. Now I can't listen to them anymore. And yeah, I heard their new albums are absolutely horrible.

 

[phildo]

I just discovered the joys that are Nightwish and Groove Coverage. I have a thing for foreign metal and Nightwish are amazing. The cover songs that Groove Coverage does are pretty good too...Especially Poison, and Moonlight Shadow.

Also amazing: Ed Alleyne-Johnson. I played bass in a band for several years and always wanted to run an electric violin through effects pedals...the rest of the band thought it was a stupid idea...watch some of his videos on youtube...its amazing stuff and definitely NOT stupid.

 

[Liberate_Yourself]

ROFL @ your reason for editing phildo! hahaha

And wow.. That is about all I can say about Ed Alleyne-Johnson.. just wow.

 

[phildo]

haha...my post looked like it was typed by a hooked on phonics dropout.


this is my fav video of Ed on youtube...

Here's a good one from Nightwish:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UztEfwHt14

probably not everyone's cup of tea...but I love it.
They have a different singer now than the one in the vid...and most people hate her..but I like the new stuff as well as the the old.
