Rico Kiley -- More Adventurous

Many good songs, not least A Man/Me/Then Jim, which I would have to say is one of my all timers.

Lamb of God - VII: Sturm Und Drang

Rico Kiley -- More Adventurous

We saw Jenny Lewis play at a weird old church in Chicago a few years ago -- one of the all time best shows I have seen.

Whoa, VII?!?!?  I'm behind...(resolves to catch up)...

I prefer their early stuff and overall wish this was better recorded (but that could be said of 95% of metal), but still.... \m/

Metric - Pagans in Vegas

I didn't realize it was out. I loved Soma and had been waiting for this to drop.

Went back and listened to Soma -- yeah, that didn't suck, neither.  I liked its patience a little better, but I prefer the more recent release's previously described balance.

Also really dig John Grant's Gray Tickles, Black Pressure from NPR's First Listen -- really great contemporary alternative.

 

sounds like Faith No More and Incubus thrown in to a blender

Al Di Meola - Tour De Force "Live"

More prep. Gain FTW

Redshift binge again.

Knucks -- when that guy (?) said, "I could listen to arpeggios all night", he could just as easily have been talking about a large portion of Redshift's output.

Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto!

Lhasa De Sela - Lhasa

 

Kirk Knuffke - Arms & Hands

Jacky Terrasson - Take This

It just hit me that this album is 20 years old.
