Pain of Salvation, Road Salt One -- goddamn, I love the direction these guys have gone lately: gritty, very 70's organic guitar tones and arrangements, but with a contemporary fidelity. A little less progressive, but who cares? There's plenty of that to go around -- they still experiment a little ("No Way", "Sleeping under the Stars"), so all's good.

How to Destroy Angels -- sounds like Nine Inch Nails with a female lead singer

Sorry Dusty, I think this EP is garbage. It does sound like NIN...NIN at its worst (With Teeth, Year Zero type blandness). At least the stuff on Ghosts was some what interesting.

Where the hell is my 10th anniversary Fragile set. We're half way through 2010 already

NIN garbage is still miles above most other stuff though.

Dierks Bentley -- Up On The Ridge

Great UFO twofer from BGO Records.

No need to apologize, you're entitled to your opinions. Just as I make no apologies not only for being gay for everything Trent related, but gay for the whole genre, pretty much.

I have to agree with you, though -- I found With Teeth and Year Zero were his weakest efforts. I don't find myself listening to them near as much as the older stuff, and I can't even remember anything other than "Every Day is Exactly the Same" and "With-a Teeth-a", the latter of which sounds like he's mocking something, rather than trying to pull off something serious.

That said, I totally dig Nine-Inch-Nails type music with a female singer.

And I did kind of hear some Downward Spiral-type stuff.

This.

MSFL UDCD bought at CJ

I'm game, so me too.

I like it a lot in an offhand way. I like this, too:

Pretty good, in an offhand way. Now listening to another of his. And you have to start following protocol and typing in the artist and album title, btw.

Karl Blau -- Zebra

Schoenberg Violin Concerto Op.36/Sibelius Violin Concerto Op.47

After the 3rd time through, this is finally starting to grow on me.

I love Rachel's (that's the name of the group, by the way) -- every once in a while, I go through a phase where I listen to everything they've done, repeatedly.

Now officially stalking Vicki's musically.
