Every off-topic forum needs one of these threads, so posters can nonchalantly advertise what obscure and/or trendy music they're listening to and feel all cool and elitist.


Tomahawk - God Hates A Coward

[Downfall]

there is one somewhere but i am too lazy to find it


so

The Living End - The Room

[King Speedy]

http://www.last.fm/user/KingSpeedy/

The Weekly's a bit skewed thanks to the new Mayer album, which I love, but the Overall's pretty accurate. I'd probably put my top 3 as Doughty, CS, and DMB. The order's just thrown off by the number of albums they've got.

[MrBored]

DragonForce

http://www.dragonforce.com/

Cheesy lyrics with old school 80's metal. It doesn't get any better than this.

[blind_mad_cow]

DJ Shadow FT. Mos Def - Six Days

[Roq]

boards of canada - iced cooly

before that i was listening to a song i made with the winebego mans voice

[tisl]

Metalium - Atrocity. Speed metal with power metal lyrics.

[schnitzel_bob]

The Tragically Hip - At the Lonely End of the Rink

[Cheddar]

The Postal Service - Such Great Heights

[Smapdey]

The Wizard - Black Sabbath

[Cheddar]

Filter - God Damn Me

[Hitman]

John Legend - P.D.A

He gets better with each release.

[foshizzle]

Deftones - Beware

Best song on thier new album. If you get a chance, check it out.

[Digital Limit]

Keane - Bedshaped

I love their sound. Very Coldplay, but different.

[Cheddar]

Crossfade - Cold

[No Soul]

Rammstein - Feuer und Wasser

[tisl]

IRON MASK - Alexander The Great

This is fucking awesome. Even after a year of listening it never gets old. Imagine the skill of Yngwie Malmsteen but with actual music. But it's not just music, it's some of the best power metal ever created, Dushan Petrossi's 'Hordes Of The Brave' with IRON MASK. Ignore the previous one though, I've heard high-school bands make better music than Revenge Is My Name. The difference is greater than that between Metallica's Kill Em All and St. Anger.

[Cheddar]

Simon and Garfunkel - The Boxer

[Kain]

Ensiferum: Eternal Wait

[schnitzel_bob]

Rage Against the Machine - Mic Check

Actually I'm in the process of listening to "The Battle of Los Angeles" again. I found it today after losing it about a year and a half ago. Fucking awesome album.

[Hitman]

I'm not listening to no anything right now.. this morning though I was listening to the sound of my thighs as they smacked into my girl's behind.. Mmm, toasty.

[Digital Limit]

Frank Sinatra - I did it my way

[Cheddar]

In between classes because I finished my exam early, listening to Filter - The Best Things on my first generation 512mb iPod Shuffler, the cheapest possible iPod you can buy.

[Digital Limit]

That's what I listen to all of my shit on.

The Shuffle kicks ass.

[Giant]

Anybody got the taste for Eloy or Omega!? Or on the other side Thin Lizzy, Deep Purple ‎or Black Sabbath!‎

[LittleChief]

Daft Punk

[Cheddar]

That's what I listen to all of my shit on.

The Shuffle kicks ass.

Except for the way I have to push the track forward button a hundred times to get to a certain song. :(

Puscifer - RCV 22:20

So, was she conscious? ;-)

The Smithereens - "Blues Before And After" (http://mfile3.akamai.com/23701/wm2/muze.download.akamai.com/2890/us/uswm2/_!/865/529865_2_02.asx?auth=daEdbcQctbgcAd0ccdfc.dtbObibm a0d8cG-bft9vS-Ci-ceibj&aifp=1234&obj=v50510)

(I'm dancing while cooking supper. And, I'm lookin' good while I'm at it, too.)

[schnitzel_bob]

Soundgarden - The Day I Tried To Live

Probably my favourite Soundgarden song.

[Digital Limit]

Except for the way I have to push the track forward button a hundred times to get to a certain song. :(

Puscifer - RCV 22:20

That's really not what the Shuffle is for...

Note the name...

Yeah...

[Cheddar]

I really, really miss Soundgarden. Mainly because Audioslave is completely overhyped and no where near as good.

That's really not what the Shuffle is for...

Note the name...

Yeah...

Oh, yes, then when I desire specific song playback I suppose I should just pull out my other $300 iPo.....wait. No. I'm poor.


Breaking Benjamin - Forget It (techno remix)

[schnitzel_bob]

^Give me a break. Audioslave is a great band. The problem is that Audioslave is constantly judged for what it's not rather than what it is. Audioslave is not what you get when you mix Superunknown with The Battle Of Los Angeles; it's good in its own right. I'm of the opinion that "I Am the Highway" is one of the best songs ever written.

[Cheddar]

The problem is that Audioslave is constantly judged for what it's not rather than what it is.

Yeah, pretty much! Ahaha.


Now, if you'll excuse me, I going to go listen to Spoonman and silently weep.

[schnitzel_bob]

Which is better: Superunknown or Badmotorfinger?

[Cheddar]

I'd have to say Superunknown. Then again, that was also more current for my age at the time of release, so that probably makes me biased. In 1991 (Badmotorfinger) I was only 7 years old.


Ben Folds Five - One Angry Dwarf and 200 Solemn Faces

[Digital Limit]

Ben Folds > Ben Folds Five

That being said, One Angry Dwarf does kick ass.

[Cheddar]

Most people would disagree with you, DL, but I don't. I'm also now finding myself preferring Ben Folds' solo work.

[Ari]

Sheek Louch- Maybe If I Sing

[Digital Limit]

I'll admit that his newest album isn't the swankiest thing ever, but Rocking the Suburbs is spectacular.

[Cheddar]

Agreed. The title track in particular is kinda great. lawl.

I kind of just cheat and use the this weird website that let's you create radio stations...

Right now, It's a little Rob Swift with some Dj Shadow.

[schnitzel_bob]

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Can't Stop. Had a hankering to hear it.

[Digital Limit]

Agreed. The title track in particular is kinda great. lawl.

It sucks: I missed a Ben Folds concert so my friend could get some pussy.

SEXILED!

[Cheddar]

Minus The Bear - Let's Play Clowns!

[Cheddar]

Trapt - Echo

[schnitzel_bob]

Soundgarden - Rusty Cage

[King Speedy]

Pandora's a bit to repetitive for my taste. I'm giving last.fm radio a try, and I'm liking it a lot. You get a bit more control over what you listen to.

[schnitzel_bob]

[Digital Limit]

I need to download some RHCP.

[Cheddar]

Cold - Send in the Clowns

[schnitzel_bob]

Chris Cornell - You know my name (the theme to Casino Royal, good shit)

[Cheddar]

I am currently listening to the original score of My Family Screaming At Each Other In The Next Room.

Four shots of vodka really takes the edge off, you know? Too bad I seem to be the only enlightened one. Gotta love my family gatherings. We basically all just talk at the same time and the loudest one wins.

[Hitman]

Danity Kane - Show Stopper

Getting pumped up for the hoes at the club tonight.. they love dancing to this type of shit.

[LittleChief]

BT - Dynamic Symmetry

[King Speedy]

I'm now on a bit of a Béla Fleck & the Flecktones binge. Nice chill music.

[Digital Limit]

A friend of mine recommended Bela Fleck, so I did the same a few weeks ago.

Killswitch Engage - One Last Sunset

[Digital Pimp]

Finally found the album to Layer Cake last night so I'm listening to that.

[LittleChief]

Dang, thanks Cheddar for sharing minus the bear.
Minus The Bear - This Ain't a Surfin' Movie

[Hobbes874]

Just came back from a Head Automatica concert, was pretty sweet.

[Cheddar]

The only reason I started listening to Minus The Bear was because of their "creative" song and album titles. Fortunately, the music also turned out to be pretty great.

Minus The Bear - I'm Totally Not Down With Rob's Alien

[Justian_Olmstead]

Christopher Robin's dead-Mas Rapido

[RADiator]

Shinobi vs. Dragon Ninja by lostprophets

LP's new album blows. In fact, their albums have gotten progressively worse since their debut album. What's up with that.

[Cheddar]

Jesper Kyd - Amb Zone


[edit] Oops, this was supposed to be edited into the above post. Meh.

[PHAT_ASS]

LP's new album blows. In fact, their albums have gotten progressively worse since their debut album. What's up with that.

its out? ima check it out

[PHAT_ASS]

as for what im listening to now, im not really a fan of emo and popular radio friendly punk but the new My Chemical Romance album is pretty good. Except for a few typical emo songs, theres a certain energy in their music which keeps them away from the whiny emo theme. Influences range from Pink Floyd's The Wall, to Queen all the way to old Green day and Offspring in certain cases. I guess the emo bands are finally growing up after getting dumped over and over again by their girlfriends :P

[Cheddar]

its out? ima check it out

LP has gotten too punk and up-beat now. God, I can't stand up-beat music.

ATB - Trilogie Part 2

In other news, I continue to be pissed off at how Plantronics is taking forever to release a beta of VolumeLogic that works with iTunes 7.

[PHAT_ASS]

LP has gotten too punk and up-beat now. God, I can't stand up-beat music.

I've heard the new song QWERTY and i agree is sounds a lot more up-to-date (meaning punk) and it's overall a lot more agressive than commercial Nu-Metal (which died a few years back). Bad part is they try to sound like something else. This is not necessarily a bad thing since all bands have to evolve, but if I've ever heard the song for the first time without being told it was them, i would prolly never be able to tell it's Linkin Park (xept maybe for the rapping). I did hear the live version though, maybe the studio version will have that missing LP sound. As for the other new stuff, i haven't heard it yet but they will prolly mellow it down a bit or else they might lose the popular fan base and radio airtime (which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but I wouldn't want this band to die out just like Limp Bizkit did with their last album... yea you prolly didn't even know they had a last album come out... it bombed)

[Cheddar]

LB died because Fred Durst is an egotistical idiot, and also because they relied on Wes Borland's talent.

Celldweller - Tragedy

[Hobbes874]

Teardrop - Massive Attack

[Cheddar]

Tool - Schism

[schnitzel_bob]

Out of curiosity, for those of you who dislike Audioslave, why? Is it because it's not Soundgarden or what?

[Cheddar]

People who like Audioslave are communist sympathizers. There, I said it.

Hikaru Utada - Simple and Clean

I've never heard it... what album is that from?

[Cheddar]

The remastered edition of Whatever and Ever Amen. It has seven additional songs on it.

Definitely a worthy purchase for anyone who likes Ben Folds.

Chevelle - Bend The Bracket

[Digital Limit]

Well fuck, I am so out of the Ben Folds loop.

[Cheddar]

http://www.amazon.com/Whatever-Ever-Amen-Folds-Five/dp/B0007TFGXU

It's a steal at 10 bucks.

Red Hot Chili peppers - One hot minute

Such an underrated album. It's too bad the Chilis have dissowned it (they don't play tracks off it in concert), because though some of it isn't great (Flea shouldn't sing. Period.) there are some truly brilliant pieces of funk. For me, apart from Aeroplane and My Friends, One Big Mob and especially Walkabout are standouts.

[burnart]

totally... I love it to death.. I agree some parts isn't the best but I love the funk sound.
Dave Navarro wasn't so bad really, tho I think John Frusiciante fits better to the RHCP sound.
But the By the way record is pure pop, didn't buy the last one. Still on my wishlist tho.

Yeh its too bad they dont play some of them live.. walkabout is amazing

Edit: funny note, I dig RHCP but I still haven't gotten blood sugar sex magic...

[No Soul]

Bad Religion - New Dark Ages


OHM was great; other than the ones listed Deep Kick, Pea, Shallow Be Thy Game, and Transcending were great. Loved the whole album, but Falling Into Grace was my least favorite. Navarro didn't add anything that John could do better. By The Way wasn't so bad, they did have some songs on the album that still are good: Don't Forget Me, Warm Tape, Venice Queen, and of course Can't Stop. Tear was a pretty powerful song even though it was kind of out there. Blood Sugar Sex Magic and Stadium Arcadium are must haves.

[Kain]

Spiderbait - Ghost riders

[burnart]

Do you mean john could do it better or john cant do what navarro did?
didn't understand that..
anyway.. yeh those songs are good, not a huge fan of warm tape tho.

Red blood Hot sugar Chili sex Pepper magic and s\a are on their way. Ordered them yesterday, together with QoTSA Songs for the Deaf limited ed.

Edit: whats spiderbait? never heard of them
edit 2: Australians huh.. they dont even sell their record here... hehe

Have you heard "One Last Sunset" by them yet?

[LittleChief]

Hybrid - Finished Symphony

[schnitzel_bob]

Listening to my latest hobby: teaching myself video game themes on the piano (mostly old school Nintendo stuff). Finally, those 6 years of piano lessons I was forced to take are coming in handy.

Dorky? For sure. Awesome? You'd better believe it.

Hump de Bump of this thread

Queens of the Stone Age- Era Vulgaris

I come to QOTSA from a mainstream radio. I first heard of them when “No One Knows” shot them up the charts. I’ve liked a lot of their stuff, but never enough to buy an album, at least until I heard “Make it Wit Chu”. On the strength of that song I bought Era Vulgaris, and it is great. It’s got a great groove to it. Asides from Make it Wit Chu (which is just a fantastic, fantastic song), it’s got excellent songs which cover a fair amount of ground. At times, Era Vulgaris feels like it’s carrying on the spiritual mantle of Soundgarden, and not in a derivative way either. Underpinning the album is rich vocal work that has a slightly eerie, dissonant feel to it. All in all, its an awesome album

[Dark_Swordmaster]

The Elephant Riders album from Clutch.


I love every song from it.

[Digital Limit]

Listening to The Hand That Feeds, thanks to that NIN thread.
