-- Living in Oblivion: Best of the 80's, Vols 1-4
Woo hoo, tons of great 80's music! Some hits I loved, some obscure gems I'd forgotten about, and some crap I thankfully missed the first time around.

-- Lucero Tennessee
One of the best albums of the year, imo. Achingly beautiful and heartfelt country-rock-soul music. Currently wearing out my cd player.

-- Radiohead OK Computer & Kid A
These guys defy description with their mixing of progressive / alternative / pop all into one. Sometimes overhyped as "the saviors of rock" but they've earned the press with a robust catalog of unique and instantly memorable albums. Every time I listen to Radiohead, I hear something new.

-- Ryan Adams Heartbreaker & Gold
A great singer/songwriter who is still growing into his talent. His third album featured the hit "New York, New York" and that song barley scratches the surface. We will be watching his career with great interest

Linkin Park - Meteora

So far, I mix a lot of my stuff. The cd's are mainly for the car or at work. Once I get home, I rip my fav tracks off the album and add em to the massive playlist.

Slayers Try: Breeze.

The Cult "Beyond good And Evil"

Billy Idol "Cuberpunk"

Various other Goth/Industrial/80's music...

I enjoy Radiohead, but my intense dislike of Thom Yorke complicates my listening experience.

The Ataris "So Long, Astoria"
The Flaming Lips "Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots"
Aerosmith "Big Ones"
Rent: Soundtrack
Theloneous Monk's Greatest Hits

That would make it tricky He definitely has that love/hate affect on people.

His voice doesn't bother me. His personality does. I know I should try to forget about that when I'm listening, but I can't.

Eminem rubs me the same way; really like his music, but can't stand him.

I just got The Soft Bullentin too. An amazing soundtrack for a movie that never existed. tFLs are probably one the best things to come out of Oklahoma City.

As of this moment I'm listening to System of a Down - Toxicity.

Tool; Anemia

Black Sabbath; Paranoid

Pink Floyd; all of their albums

Ænima.

Various Rammstein songs, a little old Linkin Park that has been recently rediscovered...

Opeth: Deliverance

Most brilliant thing I've heard in a little while.

Hmm, I'll have to pick that one up next time I see it.

Turin Brakes: Pain Killer

Followed by :: looks at playlist :: Ben Folds: The Luckiest, and Goldfinger: Counting the Days.

The White Album - Beatles
Songs for the Deaf - QOTSA
A mix of stuff downloaded & burnt in college...

[cough]Once More with Feeling Soundtrack.

Al;so been listening to Avril Lavigne, Sum 41, and the usual mix of Alice Cooper, Megadeth and Black Sabbath that graces my hard disk

The soundtrack from The Good, The Bad & The Ugly.

Evanescence ("Bring Me to Life" and "My Immortal" specifically), Lucy Woodward "Dumb Girls"), Sting ("When We Dance"), The Cars ("Magic," "Drive" and "You Might Think"), lots of Dashboard Confessional, John Mayer, Indigo Girls & Tori Amos as per usual....oh, and a bunch of Eddie Izzard (on mp3) doing stand-up.

That's pretty much all the stuff that I listen to regularly at the moment.

Jimi Hendrix - Blue Wild Angel. Has a 22 minute version of "Machine Gun" with a 3 minute drum solo among other things that's just mindblowing.

Joe Satriani - "Crystal Planet", "Strange Beautiful Music"
I need a daily dosage of guitar goodness, and Satch gives that and more. I'm still amazed at how well the music flows with all the craziness in it.

QOTSA - Songs for the Deaf. Nice fun music with Dave Grohl going nuts on the drums.

Tea Party - "Edges of Twilight", "Triptych". Cool and different sounding songs with eastern and Indian influenced melodies.

And of course there's the usual Slayer, Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Tori Amos, Chantal Kreviazuk, Sarah Slean stuff....

What's playing in my car this week:

U2: Best of 90s-2000.

Rammstein: Mutter

Propellerheads

Chemical Brothers

Jamiroquai

You know, you can put it in your sig, if you want to. Just stick "Post 666: Wed Mar 26, 2003 11:09 am" in there and then it will be remembered forever! In one of my saved sigs I have my 666th post stats, so I will always remember my true eeeeeeeeeeevilness.

Only if you want to, of course.
