What music are you listening to?

[Jack_Attack]

Weezer's Red Album. Mainly Troublemaker, Everybody Get Dangerous, and Pork and Beans. Enjoyable.

[SRN]

Just a note to everybody, I fucking love Rompeprop. I fuavking luv them!!~!

[Skummy]

No idea where it's from, but some acoustic jamband type stuff by Lemmy, Slim Jim Phantom of the Stray Cats and some other fella, mostly Buddy Holly covers and stuff like that. Quite nice.

Is there an actual title for the album? I'd love to hear that.

Quick Google search brings that up. Seems like there's one album, and a DVD, from the looks of things.

Anyway, today I'm listening mostly to Brian Wilson's new album - it's alright, pretty much what you'd expect from a 21st century Brian Wilson album - probably the best thing he's done in the last twenty years, though, miles better than the last Wilson/Van Dyke Parks collaboration. Shame it couldn't have come out sooner, though, because there's nothing like new Brian Wilson to soundtrack a summer. Hmm...to begin with I was thinking Van Dyke Parks' little spoken word monologues scattered throughout were dreadful, but they're growing me - they fit the flow of the album (something Wilson & Parks are brilliant at - their best work sounds like it could just be one long track from start to finish, there's no noticeable break between songs - Smile being the best example of that), and "Between Pictures" is actually a brilliant bit of pseudo-beat poetry.

I dig that they do an Eddie Cochran cover, seems a lot of Brits have covered Eddie Cochran. That's a good thing.

That reminds me, Motorhead's "Black Leather Jacket" on Stone Deaf Forever is fucking amazing. Probably the coolest lyrics for any song ever.

[TAFKA Castroneves]

I've mostly been listening to Sevendust - "Chapter VII - Hope and Sorrow" recently which is a blinding album. Tracks like "Hope", "Scapegoat" and "Contradiction" just blow me away. Can't wait for these guys to storm the UK, sadly as only a support band but I have waited seven years for them to come over here.

[New Damage]

The Mayfield Four's second album, "Second Skin". And yep, it was the band of Myles Kennedy before Alter Bridge. I may only be two songs in, but so far it's great. It's different to Alter Bridge, but the same, it's weird to describe. I guess it's slightly more Puddle of Mudd-ish as opposed to stereotypical OTT metalishness.

UPDATE: It's a good album. How they didn't catch on I'll never know.The opener, "Sick and Wrong" alone is worth it. "Sick and Wrong" on Youtube:

"My life" The Game and Lil Wayne

I like the Game and I don't like Wayne, but I think this is a good song. I don't get what he means when he mentions Kurt Cobain though, because if he's insulting him, then he can fuck off.

If it's Wayne, he probably referenced him in some way because rappers like comparing themselves to fallen heroes and "martyrs" just because they're paranoid of death. Or Wayne did it in some half-witted way that's supposed to come off as clever, like tons of his stuff.

If it's Game, the guy's just name dropping because he loves the sound of names.

[El Presidente]

Dave Matthews Band. It's always them other than a few changes here and there. Although I guess literally right this second I am listening to Don't Do Me Like That by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. Good stuff.

[SRN]

For some reason I have gone over to listening to Muse. And I love it.

[Turbo Yannis]

I'm getting properly back into We Are Scientists again.

I love them more than I love Oreos. And I love Oreos a shitload.

Take me away, like I overdosed on cocaine

Or take me away, like a bullet from Kurt Cobain

Suicide

Those were some of the first lines by The Game. I really can't understand what most of these rappers are saying most of the time with their new hip hop slang and....their troublemaking ways.

[Mr Evil Guy]

He didn't take a shot at him, he just said he wanted to RIP like Cobain.

He's not all "NGH COBAIN SHOT HIMSELF CUZ HES GAY, LOL WHATCHA GON SAY"

[METALMAN]

I picked up Scott and Scott 4 by Scott Walker the other day, after coming across a couple of songs of his I really liked. Both are fantastic. I can imagine them keeping me interested for some time.

[Iain76er]

He didn't take a shot at him, he just said he wanted to RIP like Cobain.

He's not all "NGH COBAIN SHOT HIMSELF CUZ HES GAY, LOL WHATCHA GON SAY"

He appears to be saying he wants Kurt Cobain's ghost to murder him, so it would appear like suicide.

[Turbo Yannis]

Listening back, how fucking good was Thee Cheers for Sweet Revenge?

I forgot how much I love(d) that album.

[METALMAN]

Was that the 2nd MCR one? I was never really into them so I'm unsure.

[Turbo Yannis]

Aye, second.

[apsham]

I'm currently listening to the entire Hospital Music CD from Matthew Good in anticipation of hearing more news on his two new albums. Going to be grawesome.

[New Damage]

Even though Comes With The Fall was mentioned a few pages back, I'm currently streaming their album "Beyond The Last Light" on Last.FM. HERE

One the first track at the moment, though I've already heard four of them, and it's just as godd as the better ones of those four.

Kinda like wolfmother, but a bit less of a joke. They've sure got some straight-up, no bullshit riffs. If DuVall is similar to this on Alice In Chain's new album, it'll be good.
