Random, odd, obvious, guilty pleasure, old, new, whatever. Name something you think is worth checking out.

Queen - A Night At The Opera: Definately steeped in the mid '70's, it's never the less ground breaking, versatile and interesting. If it was recorded with todays technology it would be absolutely mind boggling. Key track: "The Prophet's Song." Forget "Bohemian Rhapsody," this tune is the essential Queen.

    The Rheostatics - Melville

    The album is just a masterpiece. It's unfortunate that the Rheos are no more. What is even more unfotunate is that hardly anyone even knew about them.

  • Guilty pleasures? Linkin Park. Every morning I think about flogging myself because I like them, but then I just put on the new cd and, well, like it.

    Favourite mature bands at the moment? Arcade Fire and Wintersleep.

    ONLY LIVING WITNESS-Prone Mortal Form/Innocents Reissue. i hope some of you guys check them out because they are one of the greatest bands you've never heard of. Released two records back in the early 90s and broke up.. Century Media rereleased them as a two disc set last year with a ton of demos and the results are amazing. Key tracks: December, VTA, Prone Mortal Form, No Eden, Knew Her Gone, Strata, Downpour.

    CLUTCH-From Beale Street To Oblivion. get this record. now.

    “I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”

    Check out the Burden Brothers. If you were a Toadies fan back in the day, it's Todd Lewis's new band. They have been around for about 5 years, and have 2 albums out. They are on a smaller independent label, but their albums are available nationwide or through the website.

    http://www.theburdenbrothers.com

    There should be a jukebox player with song samples or http://www.myspace.com/burdenbrothers

    hope you enjoy them. :D

    I don't understand this type of thread at all. Every poster posts their favorite new album, but nobody actually looks at the other poster's reccomendations. It's a one way flow of information. It's a black hole. This thread is an ammo dump of albums and singles, I'm sorry to say.

    Interesting!  Hard on the tinnitus but definitely interesting!

    Here's on that never lets me down.  I've always kind of saved this one for "the right moment" so it's never gotten old:


    Here's a great late night number off that album, "The Fool"


    “The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.













  • If you don't know John Spencer Blues Explosion, you better axe somebody.

    Orange is an amazing album.
