i remember a time when rynne's np posts were gibberish to me too :lol:

been obsessively listening to for a few weeks now:
the black keys - brothers, attack and release
the sheepdogs - learn and burn

currently downloading the new ladytron and primus albums
Oh hi

I love Ascension. John Coltrane's greatest work.

I've been listening to the new Tori Amos almost to the exclusion of everything else. The orchestrations are so lush.

Also the new Kittie and Anthrax albums, which are suprisingly similar in that they are varied in style to the extent they don't really have any coherence. Good moments in both, though.

Also, the new Alice Cooper - Welcome to my nightmare 2 - which is pretty much the definition of milking your legacy, to the extent where the last track is a four minute romp through his greatest hits. There's also a disco track with lyrics that are cringeingly immature, even for Alice Cooper.

She may be a bit wacky, but you can't deny the mass of talented songwriting she has.  Now that it's been a while since the Tori stuff for me, I find myself going back and listening to her a bit more.  Phenomenal tunesmith.

Yeah him and Bob Ezrin.  I think they both want to be considered relevant again, but Alice is Alice, it doesn't matter whether he has a hit record or not, because he can still continue to tour.  But Ezrin...oh don't get me started!  ::)

Doug Stanhope. He is AMAZING!

With as much of a fanboi as I am for Bill Hicks. I think I love Stanhope just as much...

October 25th for the new Pup album!

I'm a huge fan of Rosetta (I heard them called space metal and I would say it fits, really well for their first album. All about space. ISIS and them are close. Not the same, but if you like ISIS they are worth checking into. Their first album is AMAZING!!!!) ANYHOO I just got Cleansing Undertones of WAKE/LIFT its pretty much all the "sounds" used on the WAKE/LIFT album. Like samples, odd uh... Sounds in the background of the song... I guess you could call it ambient... I haven't played it all yet. But am listening now.


Also today, I have been listening to TMV. "When all the worms came crawling out your head. Telling you don't you be afraid." (my coworkers think I'm nuts now, I said that over and over...)

Enjoying my Discovery editions of Meddle and Animals...any Floydians who have holes in their collection, if you can get these fairly inexpensive (like Best Buy) then I recommend you do so; Mr. G worked very hard and it shows.

found Animals on vinyl for $4 not too long ago. Very happy addition to my collection.
I also love Meddle so much. I need to find that one still.

I honestly completely forgot it was my birthday until someone Facebook'd me at 12:10am Central, and, on a whim, I looked up the song that was #1 on the day of my birth:

As I said at the time, it could have been worse.  I was born about 6 weeks earlier than "Wham!" went #1.
