What Are You Listening To?

Never heard of the guy before, I've been going through the popular tracks playlist on youtube, but it isn't bad.

That's not the kind of thing I would usually listen to but I like that

I also found out Depeche Mode have a new single/album out. It wasn't their best song.

Perhaps this will be more to everybodies liking.

A Shitwank Records Aussie classic.

The other recap raps are pretty good too, shame there isn't a nuwho recap.

I bought both the 1990's Iggy Pop distorted remaster of Raw Power and Mishima by Philip Glass which I'm listening a lot to.

A number of bands on my ipod the past few days : -

Sugar, from the 1990s, fronted by Husker Du's Bob Mould. Their debut, Copper Blue, is a hard-rock classic, though very treble-y. Highlight for me is "Slick", a disturbing song about the survivor of a car crash - is the protagonist falling unconscious or dying at the end?

ELO's Out Of The Blue. As people on this forum will know I'm no Fab 4 fan but this is a wonderful, life-affirming double-album. I certainly think it's a shame the Beatles-influenced Jeff Lynne isn't given the same status as his heroes - his records are written, sung, played and produced beautifully. I recommend "Sweet Is The Night" as a pre-summer cockle-warmer.

Doctors Of Madness. An obscure mid-late 70s glam/punk band with a healthy disregard for the establishment and a curious world view. "Bulletin" from their 3rd & final LP is a mighty kick up the backside and still relevant today.

That Iggy remix version of Raw Power is enough to disintegrate speakers and eardrums - I have it too!

I was interesting in getting Philip Glass's Low trilogy, any good?

Moody, melodic. Yeah.

Magnificent dub-jungle-techno fusion on Metalheadz from about 3 years ago. The album is definitely worth a gander. Short, but sweet.
