Jimmy Reed at Carnegie Hall

Not the MFSL but the RB layer of the AF SACD. Pretty good sound.

Thanks for the reminder, I need to check me out some Mastodon.

Mastadon is awesome. Also probably the only metal band that's hipster approved

Whether they're approved by true metalheads is another matter. Personally, I gave them a fair chance and I thought they were horrible, they lacked good melodies and the vocals were anything but memorable. But I'm known to like metal with high-pitched singers, melodic guitar riffs and cheesy lyrics.

My pop crush of the day. Spangle call lilli line's Eye.

The Cure - Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me

I'm with GPH on Mastodon -- they did nothing for me.

Sorry if that lowers GPH's cool quotient.

I have somewhere down around #487 on my list of things to do before I die to give them another chance.

Me: Listened to the entirety of Feed To Feed. Fuckgoddamnyeah. I cannot think of a better way to spend 3-4 hours. Oh, wait, yes I can. But it's up there.

Also forgot: really dig Throes of Dawn. RIYL more recent Katatonia, more recent Amorphis, any Blue Oyster Cult.

Sorry if that lowers GPH's cool quotient.

I'd say the fact that we both listen to a lot of prog rock puts us pretty low on the "cool music tastes" scale.

Iced Earth - Night of the Stormrider. I decided that Mastodon doesn't really do it for me either. Iced Earth is more up my alley.

I enjoyed Mastodon for a short bit, but they couldn't hold my interest long term. The music was catchy I'll give them that.

They Might Be Giants - Flood

Cowboy Junkies - The Trinity Session

Elvis Costello - Rock And Roll Music

Ry Cooder and Manuel Galb

Marillion - Fugazi

Shrinebuilder

I've always listened to heavier music but kind of got away from the metal scene a few years back. Recently though a couple of guys at work introduced me to some sludge, doom and stoner rock that I've been really impressed with and I've been on a mission exploring. Shrinebuilder is a real gem that's been getting almost daily ear time. That and some Isis, I don't usually go for the growly vocals but Isis has a blend of clean and somewhat unique growl that grabbed me.

I'm betting GPH will like Shrinebuilder.

Eric Clapton - Unplugged

You're probably right. I'm not a metalhead at all and when I listen to metal, its usually very catchy easy listening metal

Prog is not cool? I think all of that singer songwriter wining is not cool. [ATTACH=CONFIG]3051[/ATTACH]
