There's some good Columbian music. I particularly like Aterciopelados.

Currently, tis The Mountain Goats - We Shall All Be Healed.

Lovely.

The Very Best Of Roy Orbison. Somehow he does emotion without being cheesy.

Why is it that U2's best songs are the ones they wrote for other people? There's Roy doing "She's A Mystery To Me", and Johnny Cash's "The Wanderer". Maybe it's because Bono sings like a dog howling at the moon and The Edge doesn't really play guitar.

Death Magnetic - Metallica

Great album - best stuff they've done for years.

The Very Best Of Roy Orbison.

Ditto. There was a cracking little documentary about him on TV about 3 weeks ago and I went out and bought this.

Valravn, a Danish/Faroese/Swiss-Ecuadorian folk/rock/punk/electronica band.

Check them out on youtube, find out more at Valravn or

Jolly exciting stuff. Think "Sugarcubes with folk elements".

and the singer is hot

Downloaded last night:

Kora! Kora! Kora! - The Cabaret Voltaire Versions

Basically, Richard H. Kirk of CV remixes tracks by the New Zealand dub-rock band Kora.

's good so far

This version of "Daniel" by Bat for Lashes. Soooo much better than the over produced single.

My latest ebay accident arrived today. A direct cut all-analogue 180g vinyl audiophile pressing of Black Sabbath - Paranoid.

The linn poweramp hasn't had such a good work-out in ages!

After each 'light shower' here, the blackbirds burst back into song.
So I'm radio free and listening to real bird song.

On A Storyteller's Night - Magnum

Pomp rocker, and proud...

The Best of Budgie

Seriously heavy riffing, and wonderfully idiosyncratic song titles.

Used to have this on vinyl, way back when, and practically wore it out in various smoke filled student pads. Still a great album

New Super Furry Animals one... it's nice enough but they haven't really done anything with any proper songs on it since Phantom Power, they are just coasting on a pleasant psychedelic haze..

Damn good (as all the shows I've seen), though the set was a bit too short for my taste (only 90 mins- the displayed set time was 8.30-10.30, but they were off at 10.10). As with last year's gigs, the emphasis firmly on old stuff, this time nothing from the 2003 album or Hosannas.

StuAff · « **Reply #697 on:** 13 May, 2009, 11:58:33 pm »

And guess what I'm listening to now? By coincidence, Killing Joke 'The Gathering 2008' (both gigs from London last year, actually listening to the second night, when I went).

Cradle of Filth ~ Nymphetamine

There was (or perhaps is) a north-east tribute band to Cradle of Filth called 'Cot o'shite'
