Re: So...What Album Did You Just Listen To?

Just finished listening to yet another kick-butt (Canadian) rock album:

Theory Of A DeadMan - Scars & Souvenirs



Obviously, some may be offended by some of their more "aggressive" lyrics, but even with that, it was a good CD with some slow songs a well as some hardcore rock songs to get you fired up!

I listened to those for a class for points, and I really liked them. They were definitely something I enjoyed. I've also listeend to SOAD's Mezmeize album, and Metallica's new Death Magnetic CD. It was decent.

Nice. I have a ton of Metallica CD's. My favorite songs are the Unforgiven II, One, Enter Sandman, and I like The Unforgiven III, off of their newest CD. I also just listened toThe Best of Led Zepplin....just can't get enough.

Re: So...What Album Did You Just Listen To?

This afternoon, I had an extended commute home*. It gave me just about enough time to partake in Sermon From Bethlehem by Rev. Billy C. Wirtz. Wirtz's particular flavor of piano blues leans toward various mixtures of spirituality, risqué humor, Southern living and professional wrestling. (Can you tell he was born about an hour from here in Aiken, SC?) The result is entirely inappropriate to play around impressionable youth straight through, but definitely my favorite of his works.

*My fellow South Carolinians, please learn how to drive in the rain already. Love, Billfred

Re: So...What Album Did You Just Listen To?

Today at work, I was able to get about halfway through Metallica's S&M album, done live with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. One of my favorites, I must say.

Also recently played was Jay-Z's The Blueprint and Kingdom Come. Blueprint is a classic, with some of the best delivery and production of his career (see also: Takeover, Heart of the City (Ain't No Love), Hola Hovito, Izzo (H.O.V.A.), Renegade, Never Change...just about every song on the album, to be honest). Kingdom Come is a little more mixed, but there are still some solid tracks to be had (Oh My God, Kingdom Come, Lost Ones, Show Me What You Got, 30 Something, Hollywood).

Re: So...What Album Did You Just Listen To?

I occasionally listen to Carlos Jean, I enjoy my Cat Stevens, Crosby/Stills/Nash/Young, Cherish the Ladies, Gershwin, Elton John, Lou bega, Royksopp, Metallica, Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

Oh, and I LOVE theme songs... I have the star wars theme (all movements, a disco version, and an a capella version), the halo themes/songs, Fifth Element, Pirates of the Carribbean (fans of all three themes but only the first and third movies), The Last Starfighter, Indiana Jones (especially the beginning of the theme to temple of doom), James Bond themes, and I LOVE the credit music to The Mummy Returns.

And, I have a confession to make. Occasionally I just find myself playing with the freq. generator my laptop making standing waves in a cup of water sitting in front of my subwoofer...

Re: So...What Album Did You Just Listen To?

Today's commute: the cast recording from Monty Python's Spamalot. If you are mature enough for Monty Python and the Holy Grail, you're covered; if your parents have sheltered you from the latter, avoid the former.

That said, I've seen it twice (once on Broadway from standing room, once with the traveling production which wasn't as well-done, but at least I could sit down), and I'd recommend it.

Re: So...What Album Did You Just Listen To?

Actually not listening to any recorded music...
my neighbors the Gove Street Back Yard Band are having a jam session...
they pretty good... southern rock, hard country, kinda Montgomery Gentry playing with the Charlie Daniels Band.
Some of the boys from Hard Ride playing too so theres some Metal Country...
thats right... Metal Country, just something you have to hear to believe.
Think Metallica doing covers of Johnny Cash.

Re: So...What Album Did You Just Listen To?

While working in the campus machine shop earlier today (milling parts for a RBE2001 group project), In Silico by Pendulum, Fix Your Face by TRVS & DJ AM, and then Here We Stand by The Fratellis were the albums of the day.

Right now, I'm listening to Any Time Now by O.A.R.

Re: So...What Album Did You Just Listen To?

Today, as I shot my way through about nine cars (and re-realized why I like the Buick Lucerne), I was listening to the X-Ecutioners' Built From Scratch. I'm not usually a turntablism kind of guy, but their particular style works for me.

Once that ran out, I started on Wyclef Jean's The Ecleftic: 2 Sides II a Book. The follow-up to The Carnival, it's more straightforward hip-hop (well, by Wyclef's standards anyway). Regardless, it's worth finding...but if you don't have the cash right now to dig through the used CD bin, well...

Gottas agree with you wholeheartedly on The Carnival! I trudged through many long days & night of homework my freshman year of college listening to that CD repeatedly! It was my only saving grace while in those computer labs writing papers, or working on equation after equation in the math lab.
I only got interested in it because of the "Staying Alive" Bee Gees remix, but soon grew to love the whole CD. It had it all. Comedy, good beats, awesome songs, classic songs, slow ones, uptempo songs...
Great CD!!!!

Dare I say, it was very similar to what Kanye attempted & did in Graduation years before Kayne did it.
Combine old & new, & mix it up in sometimes crazy ways, & make a great compilation!

I've heard of Techno-Country (Rednex) - I've even heard of Rap-Country (Cowboy Troy & this one too), but Metal-Country?!?!?!
This I have got to see (or hear)!!! lol
