Previous Currently Listening... thread was in Members Chat board, so in fact you could write there about non-classical music too.

 

Listening to The Killers,Hot Fuss. Undoubtedly their best album

 

YES - TALES FROM TOPOGRAPHIC OCEANS

Has to be the best 4 20 minute plus songs in rock history!' (my opinion of course)

Normally I would be listening to classic progressive rock like Topographic Oceans or Jethro Tull's A Passion Play (the finest 48 minute plus song in rock history. )

But this weekend I'm delving deeply into the singer songwriter genre in the album Roadsinger by Yusuf who sounds exactly like an early 1970's Cat Stevens.

Yea he's still got it!

What Are You Listening To Right Now?

I know this is a classical forum, but I am sure many of us listen to other stuff too. What is on right now? Currently, I happen to be listening to Miles Davis' Birdland 1951.

 

Rounds by Four Tet. Folky, electronic goodness

 

Both are excellent.

 

Argus, Money Jungle is my favorite album!

 

 

Autechre - Krib

 

Been on a big Electric Wizard kick over the weekend. Listening to these:

They even inspired me to get my SG out of hibernation, along with my Big Muff and Memory Man, lay down some heavy riffs/chordal beds, loop them and do some seriously crazy improvisation. Put my RAT, Bad Monkey and Muff on together and got some sweet feedback/sustain. After playing classical guitar exclusively for the past 6 months, I was surprised how quickly I got back into the groove. A lot of that last paragraph will be confusing to non-guitarists.

That's a good record, I really like Four Tet.

 

Been on a big Electric Wizard kick over the weekend. Listening to these:

I'm suing Electric Wizard for destroying my speakers. (Well, not really. I may have to replace some of the caulking around the windows because of them.)

I hate the "singing," but absolutely love the deep black end-of-the-world beyond Iommi riffs of utter despair.

If you want speaker annhiliating noise try some Sun O))). I haven't heard enough to really give a judgement on them but these videos just crack me up.

 

Lulu III - Hommage au Rudi (Rudi Haag, vln./Lulu Weiss, gtr.) Sony

Some great European gypsy music to warm my soul!

 

A Change of Seasons - Dream Theater (currently on VI. The Inevitable Summer)
