Title: It's Been Ages Since I Asked This Question Here...
Post by B14CK5H33P on Nov 1st, 2007, 10:16pm
What y'all been listening to lately?

Since I have been broadcasting 11 months now, I am now getting flooded with new music from unsigned bands, and feel mightily blessed to have an ocean of tuneage to swim through though a bit overwhelming at times when 57 bands send stuff and ask your opinion that day.

Just some of the stuff I am getting into recently:

Angelspit - Krankhaus (great metal industrial techno)
Rob Zombie - Zombie: Live  (just released)
Living Dead Girlz - BRAINS
Coheed & Cambria - No World For Tomorrow
Serj Tankian - Elect The Dead  (SOAD's singers solo disc)
Radiohead - In Rainbows
Iron Maiden - Killers
The Cult - Sonic Temple
King Diamond - Them
The Doors  - Morrison Hotel
Miles Davis - Doo Bop
Modest Mouse - Good News For People Who Love Bad News
Tool - 10'000 Days
Amy Winehouse - Back to Black
Dan Le Sac Vs. Scroobius Pip - Thou Shalt Always Kill
Type O Negative - Dead Again
Anthrax - Among The Living
Mahavishnu Orhcestra - Birds of Fire
Frank Zappa - Joe's Garage
King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King
Blind Guardian - Myths and Legends
and some killer indie stuff from around the world:

PiZT! - Favourites
Sir Mongor - Collection
9 Days Down - self titled
Kevin Reeves - It's About Time (Phenomenal musician with a very gifted ear since being blind from birth. Sounds like a modern ELO)


What'choo listening to? Anything good? I'm always on the hunt for good stuph for the radio shows.

Peace,
Carl

Same stuff my parents didn't like when I was young. Happy to see you picked up a Wed. nite slot. I am actually one of your occasional listeners.

Please don't hold it against me.

" Kevin Reeves - It's About Time (Phenomenal musician with a very gifted ear since being blind from birth. Sounds like a modern ELO) "

oooh, now thats something I will look into Carl.

Love Jeff Lynnes music when he lead ELO

Jeff Lynne was such a talented writer. Did ALL of ELO's tunes, even did string arrangements some.

Know how great he was !?!?!?

Before he wrote the tunes for the "Out of the blue" album, he told the band: "We are going to do a double album mates" We need one, all popular bands have a double album.

They go: "WTF, you don't have any tunes written for it!!!!"

So, he locked himself away in his Swiss chalet...and in 2 weeks, he had all the tunes ready for Out of the blue!!!!!

None were garbage or written just to fill space.

Most bands do a double near the beginning of their career cause they have a flood of musical ideas....not Jeff.

He writes a double album of tunes just cause he wanted one.

Now, thats talent !!!!

One of my all time favourites !!!

Cheers, Dave

C'mon Brew, I'm gonna be disappointed if you don't add something to the thread.

How bout Chris Squire's bass playing !

Seen any new bands out there you like?

I like  AVALANCHE...they are hardly new, but new to me.

The fan for my fireplace, my stupid fingernails hitting the computer keys and the munching sound in my head as I eat a nutty bar. ;;D

Nobody is home today except me and the dog.  It's like music to my ears.

Technically very good, and always the "awe" factor thrown in. But I've never been inspired by it. The music of Yes, while it always made me say "wow," it just never made me want to learn any of it (if that's any kind of measure).

None of the above Carl.

There is no form of rock that I like or own.

I'm no fun.

That's perfectly valid, Charlie. Some of my greatest music teachers are exactly the same way. They are the ones who taught me to appreciate jazz and classical music.

I've been out in the garage listening to the sounds of a new motor in the hot rod. Needs tuning a little. And the CD palyer was on with Elvis, Little Richard, Fats, Chubby, Rick Nelson, Roy Orbeson, Bobby and a bunch more.
Just gotta love hot roddin' and old time rock and roll.

The Lemonheads (http://www.myspace.com/thelemonheads).  I listened to them in the early 90's and they came out with a new album last year, it's just as good as the old stuff but it's new and now.  A little treat for me.

Carl, can't you just move over the pond, yr show sounds a damn site more interesting than the mediocre pop factory rubbish we have on the radio over here!!!
 Dunno what it is about thrash metal, it always seeems the perfect music for a CHer, some of the words from Wait and Bleed strike home a bit ;;D

PFDAN's to ya'll.

                            Paul.

Carl,

I got the new Radiohead too the other day. Folks: You download it from a Radiohead site and pay what you want.
http://www.inrainbows.com/
I'm not ready to say it is great yet...this kind of music you've got to listen to for a while till it grows on you.

I see you like Miles. I recommend just about anything by Miles from the late 50s to early 60s, especially discs where Coltrane is on sax.

For world music, Salif Keita is excellent. He's from Mali, He has some women backup singers that look and sound like Saharan dreams.

Have you heard the late, great Joe Strummer, post-Clash period? Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros put out about 4 discs. They are all excellent. I was just listening to some on the drive to work.

Chrz,
Andrew

Boomer - Loving the clip of Ray Lamontagne. I can't get enough of him at the moment. I love this tune.

I too (like Sanna) am very girly in my music taste. Can't wait for the new BSB album. I was the biggest fan as a teenager!

As for bands, I like the new White Stripes album, The Killers, Franz Ferdinand and the Foos. Nothing really unusual.

I sound really boring!

Emily,

Unbreakable is out now! Go get yours... :) I'm loving mine (especially when I got the edition with 16 songs). Then we can talk all about the songs! ;;D

PF days,
Sanna
