Off Topic What U Listenting To Lately?

[mb99zz]

What's in your musical rotation these days? I know this is a topic that comes up every 2-3 months, but I love hearing the answers since it opens my eyes (or ears) to new bands/artists....

So, what are you listening to?

 

[gator99]

Currently alternating between the following:

Cynic - Traced In Air
Trivium - Shogun
Brad Paisley - Play
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme

 

[guertzi]

Jeff Beck - Live at Ronnie Scott's
Sonny Landreth - From the reach
Lucious - Ever changing times
Avantasia - The Scarecrow
Gary Moore - Corridors of Power

I just can't get past Andy Timmons' Resolution CD and DVD. The playing and tone just strike a "chord" with me. This is the tone I hear in my minds "ear."

His tone is definitely magical.

I wish I had more to add to this thread! I'm on the lookout (or listenout... haha) for some more new music. I've been listening to a little Joe Stump, but he seems to be too much shred and not enough feeling for my tastes...

FYI: If you want to hear new artists then check out Pandora Radio - www.pandora.com - and create a station for whatever music you are into. It's pretty astounding how similar the artists it groups together actually are. The technology that controls how it selects songs to play is called the Genome Project (Apple calls it the 'Genius Playlist')... I created a Joe Satriani station and I love every song it plays!

 

[Shoewax]

Phish – At The Roxy (Atlanta 93) Live

This Phish Collection made me get:
Trey Anastasio - Trey Anastasio (2006)

And also after Living Colour's gig in Poland I bought:
Corey Glover – Hymns

Faith No More – Album of the Year

 

[Grand Wazoo]

Well I am checking out 80's stuff that has some interesting bass lines such as Talk Talk - It's my life, Gary Numan - In my car, Joe Jackson - Stepping Out, Heaven 17 - Penthouse and Pavements, and even Talking Heads etc etc

 

[eudaimonia]

Opeth. Lots and lots of Opeth.
When not listening to Opeth, then Dream Theater, Metallica's new CD, and Symphony X.

 

[RocketRalf]

Dream Theater mostly. The CDs that have stayed with me since their launch have been Scenes from a Memory and Train of Thought. Others I've grown tired of their repetitive format (the last 2) or the aged sound (the first 3).

But besides that, I've recently discovered a pair of songs from Avenged Sevenfold (thanks to Rock Band 2) that I like. I cannot stand a whole CD from them, though.

 

[jamminjim]

Andy McKee
Peter Ciluzzi
Dan Hicks
Soren-Riis Vestergaard
Tommy Emanual

Nothing mainstream at all, maybe not even sidestream

 

[Axilla]

Two young and fresh "speed-rock" bands:

- "Safety First Gonzales" from Minden / Germany. Current Album is BITCHES LIKE US and these guys just plain rawk and go for it. One of my faves is their version of Johnny Cash's Folsom Prison Blues... Just an awesome combo.

- ""New Disaster" from Austin / Texas. Current album is LAST NIGHT RITES and I have seen this powerhouse combo live last fall here in Germany together with the above SFG. Fawking awesome power-/speedrock, and guess what - their bass playa Mark Johnson is an EBMM endorser ;-)

Both bands have their own MySpace pages - feel free to visit...

Speedrock baby !

To add to your comment, if anyone is looking for new music from unsigned/indie/undiscovered bands, check out www.ourstage.com I stream it to my iphone and my desktop once in a while. The rotation is pretty good and you get to hear some really good music that you never knew existed.

So far this week I'm listening to:

Duncan Sheik - White Limousine
Jesus Jones - London
Toad The Wet Sprocket - Bread and Circus
King's X - Ear Candy

 

[mb99zz]

Toad The Wet Sprocket - Bread and Circus

That's a classic album. I used to be in a band that played several songs from Toad -- from Brad and Circus and Pale.

 

[Purple ASS]

In my car at the moment..

Albert Lee...'Like This' best one he's done in years
Larry Carlton ...Saphirre Blue
Various Tower of Power stuff
AC/DC Black Ice ;^)
Jools Holland...The Informer
and occasionally...Girls Aloud. (Ok so thats my credibility out the window. Just love those sparkly dresses on The Promise )

Quite varied taste really

 

[Jonny Dubai]

Glenn hughes - first underground nuclear kitchen
