Do you hear what I hear?

Whatcha listening to nowadays? What type of music you into? What's in your tape/cd player?

Me, I tend to listen to a little of everything, but lean towards metal. Lately I've ben listening to Willie Nelson's Half Nelson, some old Metallica, Tchaikovsky, that sorta thing. Right now I have Death Row's Greatest Hits playing. I never could pick just one style.

Dork. How do the Cubs look this year?

Music? What's that? I listen to AM Sports Talk Radio all day...

Most of my tapes/cds are incredibly outdated. The newest ones I have are from The All American-Rejects and The Donnas. The AAR disk just screams "I've been hurt by a girl, just kill me already," while the disk from the Donnas is just fun poppy grrl punk. Eh, they were on sale.

I love Saturday nights when the hard rock/metal/progressive show takes over my fave radio station. I'm a fan of classic metal; Ozzy, Metallica, Slayer, Judas Priest... But I also go crazy over 80's music. It ALWAYS puts me in a good mood, so I have plenty of it lying around.

As far as what's in my cd player right now? A mix of music from different anime shows that are pretty old, but still great. "Orange Mystery" from KOR always makes me feel like I'm at the beach. So nice when it's snowing outside. Darned cold fronts!

Tori Amos..saw her live here in Holland in January,since then been listening to the CD..Scarlet`s Walk love the track..Mrs Jesus.

Also I`ve listened alot to Avril Lavigne..Let`s Go...best song..Anything but Ordinary

My repressed country side has taken over. Been listening to my Dixie Chicks cd's, my one Johnny Cash cd. Been watching CMT and have developed an interest in Alison Krauss and Nickel Creek.

Nonetheless, my inner metal-kid has raised his voice and has a hankering for some Black Sabbath.

I've been on a New Rock Alternative kick lately and DC101 has been my station of choice. Elliot in the morning ROCKS!!!!! *grins*

At home I've got my tape of Green by REM in the cassette player. I've filled up the b-side with songs from Automatic for the people.

To listen to at work I've got the following cd's with me:
<ul type="square">[*]Spinvis - Spinvis[*]2 many dj's - untitled[*]Ian Dury - New boots and panties][*]Def P & the Beatbusters - Aangenaam[*]Div. - 26 Estrus sizzlers[*]Urban Dance Squad - Mental Floss for the Globe[*]The Rockfords - The Rockfords[*]Cheerful Fruitflies - Volume1[*]Div. - Short music for short people[*]Div. - The Hotwire tour 1999 cd rom[*]Div. - Blue Highways, the ultimate Americana Music Fest 2001[*]The Grapes - The Grapes[/list]This more or less the best of my cd collection and is gives a nice idea of what I like to listen to. Almost anything [img]smile.gif[/img]

soundtracks, usually. however lately i'm going between the same few:

Unearthed - E.S. Posthumus (most overplayed cd in my collection)
Daredevil soundtrack
Chicago Soundtrack
Let Go - Avril Lavigne
Night Bugs - Sarah Slean

Oh and the CD i'm going to burn of Evanescence songs. i'm addicted to Evanescence. i'm burning a cd of songs off their cd Origin that i cannot find anywhere, and i'm going to get their new cd Fallen as soon as i can. addicted. really badly addicted. but oh my god, they're so damn good. did i say addicted? i think i mean obsessed. obsessed with an addiction.

Jely, I can't believe some one else has ES Posthumous! Fave track: Nara (from the Unfaithful and Antwone Fisher trailers)

Happybunny: Scarlet's walk is a great album. I'm in love with "a sorta fairytale"

Otherwise: Meatloaf - Bat out of Hell II

jadian, you're my soulmate!!! *g* Nara is typically on repeat, i love that track so much. i ordered the cd last january after i heard Pompeii from the spiderman soundtrack. i've had it over a year and it's still THE most frequently played cd i own. i want a new cd by them!!!

Here's another one for Tori Amos' Scarlet's Walk. Love the road trip map coded to the tracks, makes me want to just up and go...

Linkin Park, shuffle of all three of their albums. Or would that be 2.5?

Michelle Branch.

R.E.M. Usmu, those two albums (Green and Automatic for the People) are my very favorite, also. Though I have to throw Driver 8 onto any REM mix I do.

Everything But the Girl, acoustic.

LOTR soundtrack, FOTR and TTT.

Yeah, I'm all over.

I've been listening to The Pogues (my staple favorite), U2, Dead can Dance, and lots of what passed for punk in the '90's, and random stuff from the '80's. though I think I might follow crazy a soon and pull out my country music for a bit.

The Pogues are great. At least before they kicked out the continuously drunk Shane McGowan.

Tyle: You should check out Flogging Molly. A bit more punk than the Pogues, but equally enjoyable.

I knew there was a music thread around here....

Began listening this morning to Hayseed Dixie, KISS MY GRASS: A HILLBILLY TRIBUTE TO KISS.

It's Kiss songs. Performed with guitar, banjo, fiddle and mandolin. And backwoods drawls.

I gotta admit, it works.

They have two other cd's out, one of them an AC/DC tribute. Which I think I'm gonna have to check out.

YEE-HAW!!!!

Metallica's version of "The Wait"
The Primitives "Crash"
Chevelle's "The Red" and "Don't Fake This"

Heh. I just shared these files. I think I might buy the Chevelle album. I saw them last weekend and they were pretty cool.

I bought two used cassette tapes last week. That's all I can use in my car. :p

Garbage and Social Distortion

Only cost about $7 for both of 'em. Luckily they play. I think the Social D tape might encounter problems in the near future. I'll only listen to it on special occasions. The Garbage tape is in pretty good shape though. Especially for ~$3

I've been meaning to check out the Donnas. I've missed a couple of shows they've had here recently. I think they're gonna play at Lolapalooza.

I have their 1st C.D. and the last one.
the 1st one I don't ever recamend (yes it IS that bad)

But the last one "spend the night" is like 180 turn to rockville.

I remember hearing about 'em a few years ago. There from right here (I happen to be in Palo Alto right now). I like "Take It Off" and think they'd be a cool band to check out live.

Yeah "take it off" rocks but so does "On the rocks", and I too would LOVE to see them live [img]smile.gif[/img]
