Well, Forro in the Dark has a new album out that I've been enjoying. As for the song that I keep going back to, that would be a tie between Bag of Hammers from Thao Nguyen and the Get Down Stay Down and From the Hips from Cursive. Oh, and Easter Island Head by Throat Culture.
-
Interesting. I will check these out. Being a fan of diverse genres and styles, I am always seeking different, unique and hidden gems. Thanks.
-
-
www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbhfXoRzMhg That was not at all what I was expecting from their song titles. Nice! Thanks for sharing it.
-
My pleasure. I enjoy spreading exposure about interesting musical talents that come across my path. Especially amidst the homogenized crap we are often subjected to.
-
-
Dougie MacLean and his song: "Ready for the Storm."-
Another nice jem. Thanks
-
-
I'm into a band called Nightwish right now. The songs Nemo and Wishmaster are two of my favs!

Impressive. Thanks. Tarja's vocals are stellar to bad she was cut.
-
-
Anything Evanescense!!!-
Amy can rock for sure. What about Amybyrd, can she rock too?
-
-
-
Thanks for that one crpitt. Reminds me of some music I used to hear live at an Irish pub I used to hang out at.
-
-
Thanks. I have heard of them and heard their music before but somehow forgot about them. Thanks for the refresh.
-
-
This year, I've been really into this band:
The Walkmen
Here's one of their songs I've been digging: "The New Year" www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXj0kE61YvI-
Really enjoyed that, I have listened to a few of their tracks but not that one. Adding them to my player so I can listen some more.
-
Their recent album has some interesting and enjoyable tracks. It's a varied mishmash of stuff, can't even categorize it.
-
Cool I will look out for it
-
Unique with a kinda Roy Orbison/Bob Dylan flair. Thanks
-
-
I'm going through a Zeppelin phase at the moment, and "Wishing you were here" by Chicago is probably my favorite song for now.-
Zeppelin seems to always provide something for everyone. My Ipod wouldn't be the same without it.
-
-
Kings of Leon - Use Somebody
Paolo Nutini - Last Request (seekinthecause.blogspot.com/2009/10/last-request-by-paolo-nutini.html)-
Paulo has quite an impressive voice. Very unique vocal stylings. I dig it. Thanks.
-
-
The latest Foo Fighters Album is keeping me pretty happy this is my latest favorite songs and playlist jasonthebaldguy.com/music/ -
Everyone around me is all about Owl City right now. They are catchy indeed.-
A bit to whinny and sappy for me but I can respect the talent.
-
-
Hannah Montana mostly-
Whilst driving around in a van with blacked out windows?
-
-
with creepy ice cream truck music blaring out the back & Go Kansas written down the side.
-
-
Most recently, "School's Out for Summer" by Alice Cooper. Which I'm listening to at the moment.
Like so much of my favorite sixties and seventies music, I'm not quite on the same page with the lyrics, lifestyles of the performers, and their philosophies: but I like the music.
Besides the energy in this track's music, I rather like the yearning for freedom that's implicit in the lyrics. Of course, blowing a school 'to pieces' is quite unacceptable to me.
And, for that matter, I rather enjoyed the access to libraries and archives that I got, back in my college days.-
Going old school with the Alice Cooper. He is a scratch golfer too. Go figure.

This week it is:
Deer Tick
J.Tillman
Animal Collective-
Deer Tick - a good find, thank you very kindly for that tidbit.
J Tillman - superior find, nice work and thanks for bringing him to my Ipod.
I am circling back around to John Butler Trio this week.

Here is a nice live version solo of "Ocean" by John Butler Trio. A little different version of "Ocean" www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsnFvEQYJPU&feature=related an excellent display of acoustic guitar workmanship. Give it the full 9 min. of your time.
-
Which Animal Collective albums or songs do you recommend? So far I think I've only liked their songs "For Reverend Green" and "Fireworks."
-
I am liking the new album Merriweather Post Pavilion, took a few listens to love it.
I especially like the track 'My Girls'. -
Wow... I love that song "My Girls." I had heard it somewhere before, but only caught the back end, and of course the gracious dj's did not mention the name or band. Thank you. Yay!
-
The whole album gets you in the end. I think it is twirl in your chair happy tunes kind of music
-
Yay. A pleasant suprise. I left them for dead after Strawberry Jam. What a great pick me up. Just made my day brighten up.
-
Excellent
-
-
Anything Guns N' Roses.
Although the pre-Chinese Democracy stuff is a lot better IMHO.-
I pulled up a little "Patience" a couple days ago. What a great talent. To bad he was a social idiot & whiner. People got sick of him complaining and walking off stage, coming on hours late and canceling shows. Lose a few pounds and the attitude and perhaps a late stage comeback tour could actually work.
-
-
Yeah. I was just thinking of that song actually! Saw them 3 years ago I think it was, concert started at 7 and they got on stage around 12.30. I wouldn't have minded had I not been in the standing section. No other big complaints though, it was a good show.
-
Ha ha. Been there. Glad you stuck around. We left.
-
-
Yeah, Sebastian Bach was pretty sweet opening. Suicide Girls were totally awkward since I was there with my dad. And this band The Eagles of Death Metal who opened were booed off stage, I found it funny
-
You might want to check out these shows Janes Addiction, Nine Inch Nails, or Tool. As always, Godsmack puts on a phenomenal show as well.
-
Wow, I've never seen a band get booed off the stage but I've seen people talk more and ignore the band when the band sucks.
BTW, I'm kinda into Creed right now...I downloaded their new album the other night and am currently listening to it. Sounds really good! I also like the new Three Days Grace album. -
I used to live near Scott Stapp in Florida. Haven't heard the new music. I'll check it out.
-
Haha yeah, it was pretty bad. They played original stuff, no one liked it, so they moved to doing covers, it got worse. Then Axl came out and apologized saying this was their first and last time opening for the tour.
-
I went to see Queensryche, back in the day, and whatever really, really craptacular band opened for them got booed off the stage after a engaging in a shouting match with a bunch of drunk frat boys. They did not take criticism gracefully.
That was a couple of years after I saw Skid Row open for Aerosmith. Now that was a show for 16-year-old bunch!
-
-
I'll be sure to youtube sometime and check em out. I know I've heard all of them, but I can't put song to name at the moment
-
Steely Dan-
Wow. that is a name I haven't heard in years. Will have to pull that back up for my wife.
-
-
Here is a great duet. I have the cd by G-Love with the original duet of this song by G-Love and Jack Johnson before Jack made it to the big time. Still is a great tune. Enjoy. "Rodeo Clowns" - G-Love & Special Sauce with Jack Johnson www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjddmQVc924
-
311 is always a great addition to your list. These guys put on one of the best live shows of any group. Highly entertaining and energetic. If your head doesn't start bobbing & you don't start bouncing then your dead and I will give you a $100.
-
my tastes run in many directions, this week I' listening to a lot of Colin Hay-
Reminds me of Joe Jackson.
-
-
Never Shout Never, Blessed Union of Souls, Our Lady Peace-
Those are some names I haven't heard in a while.
-
-
Hubby and the kids would like to put in a vote for Smash a Kangaroo, which is a fun and very wrong tune but I would like not to hear it three times a day. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dWlH0No_6Q
-
Ha ha. Classic. Never heard it but definitely an excellent find. I love finding unique & interesting almost undefinable tracks to break up the routine. Thanks much for sharing.
-
-
This week I've got to go with:
Pete, Bjorn and John
www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTq9tHD5kAo

Their song "Untitled #27" is one not to miss.-
Love Twilight Sad!

Nope, but I'm listening now. Thanx for the recommendation. You have good taste.

Oh yea. This is a good track. Thanks. Reminiscent of White Strips - stripped down minimalistic edgy stuff.
-
I love it, it is definitely a get your arse into gear kind of song.
-
-
For some reason, this past month has been a lot of Everclear and Hole (lol remember them?). Santa Monica and Celebrity Skin in particular-
A blast from the past. What happened to Everclear - they sold out & went too mainstream poppy then faded away.
-
What, no L7?
-
-
Frames--When the Heart Just Stops -
Lately, I've been listening to a lot of Pat Benetar and OMD. New music: Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and Modest Mouse.-
That's a blend of diversity. I dig Modest Mouse on occasion.
-

Today this is my Sunday Morning wake up call - pour yourself a cup of green tea then add this side of Black Lips Veni Vidi Vici www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ott0zgG0M6g&feature=related to the menu.
-
-
I hadn't heard that track before, tis cool.
Love this one of theirs
www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2gdbQpESNY -
Yeah that's a good track. More mellow. Love and caring makes me want to go out and rock the day. Have you heard their track Vanished? It's really a remix of a song by a band named Van She, but I like the way they arranged it. The album is pretty good, if you can get past the idea of listening to Atari sound effects music lol.
-
Will have to check it out.
-
-
"Burial" without a doubt - www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmW_r3XK2HA-
Dark and dreaded. Hope you break it up a bit with alternate themes & styles.
-

Band - The Big Pink
Track - Velvet
www.youtube.com/watch?v=OA3twi3iSNQ
Also the track - Dominoes was pretty good

With thanks to Claire, I've been listening to Golden Silvers lately, particularly Magic Touch and Arrows of Eros.
-
Oh cool Hmm I think I need to have a wee listen again, this folk rock vibe I am on is chilling me out a wee bit too much lol
-
-
Holy crap.. it is the sons of "Flock of Seagulls" from back in the 80's. At least that is what they remind me of.
-
-
I just bought Jessie James CD--she is a new(er) artist. That chick knows how to rock it on down!-
Nice. I think we will be seeing and hearing a lot more of her in the very near future. Her song - My Cowboy - is a great crossover blend of genre's - very impressive. Watch out for this one.
-
I checked out a few more tracks. She gets you groovin and what a tremendous vocal range. Put on your Bose headphones and crank it up.
-
-
Just bought this album: "A L'aveuglette" by Francoiz Breut.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=du5J3XVSlbk
It's a great album, although it's in French.-
Like your diversity of interest. Nice voice. I'd venture to bet that you took a trip to Paris and your keen infatuation of french gals is a long standing one.
-
I'm infatuated with girls period.
-
:-)

-
The Lottery out of mt shasta..they are a new and eclectic up and coming band check them out on you tube..check out the song Empire..awesome about the new world order.... -

www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsnFvEQYJPU&feature=related -
Kate Voegele's CD "A Fine Mess" is on heavy rotation in my car. Also Saving Abel and the Glee soundtrack.-
Never heard of her but definitely a talent. I think you would like Jesse James as well. Scroll up this thread and check out the links. Have a great weekend.

-
-
"I'M DOWN" BY JAY SEAN AND LIL WAYNE. I LIKE HIS NEW STYLE! -
Inkubus Sukkubus is the band, wonderfully witchy and gothic. My favourite song of their's is All Along the Crooked Way.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpeyuD1THBI -
i've suddenly fallen in to a 2PAC phase.
-
Check out these groups - Blackalicious or The Roots. You might find them to your liking as well.

Rasmus!!!

Stand by Rascal Flatts (I love all their songs)-
