What album are you listening to v.8

[SoundscapeMN]

I think if Soundscape, Glasser, wolfking and I agree on an album, it's gotta be great.  That's quite a spread of tastes there.

Seems legit.

I've often felt The Tea Party could and should appeal to a wider demographic than they do, even just among people who just listen to Rock music. I think being stuck in Canada often was their biggest obstacle.

Dave Matthews Band - Under The Table And Dreaming

[LithoJazzoSphere]

Katatonia - Sky Void of Stars

How'd that go?  I can't recall whether you've listened to them before. 

[Glasser]

Dream Theater - Live Scenes From NY

AC/DC - If You Want Blood....

[twosuitsluke]

This album continues to be an absolute favourite of mine. 6 years down and I am yet to tire of it and it easily ranks in the top half of their discography for me.

[Crow]

this isn't bringing the heat their best albums do but it's definitely a step up from the really underwhelming 2019 album. definitely interested to spin this one another dozen times this year

[jjrock88]

Damn Yankees- s/t

Sword- Metalized

Always enjoyed Slash's solo record. Yes, it's a bit frontloaded and yes, it has a bit of that karaoke feel with songs that tend to be written in the style of the guest vocalists...but it has some of my favorite Slash's playing (and songs) outside of GnR. Favorite tunes, Ghost (with Ian Astbury) and Beautiful Dangerous (with Fergie - wish he had done more with her...this song is really good)

Little Simz - NO THANK YOU

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

Little Simz - NO THANK YOU

Judging by the album art I feel like this is going to be similar to Kendrick Lamar......to which I say, no thank you...

Have you heard the Slash's Snakepit albums?  I especially love the second one Ain't Life Grand with Rod Jackson, it really doesn't get better in that style for me.

Yep, they are both very good and I, too, prefer Ain't Life Grand. Great vocals on that one. In fact, I might just put it in my list to revisit soon 

Love Myles Kennedy, but I'll take the Slash's Snakepit albums over The Conspirators ones, for sure.

While watching my son I listened to Nickel Creek - Celebrants

Have you heard any of their earlier albums?

[Jamesman42]

I have not, only listened to this because of my dad

Ah, ok.  They've had a decent amount of evolution over the years, but I'd definitely recommend working backwards through their discography if you enjoyed it at all.  Why Should the Fire Die? is one of my all-time favorite albums. 

[Jamesman42]

Added it to my Spotify!

[NoseofNicko]

Really like this. Thinking of checking out Maiah Wynne (the singer)’s solo career.

[twosuitsluke]

Tortoise - Millions Now Living Will Never Die

This is really cool. Never listened to these guys before but this is an instrumental album that is like post-rock meets jazz meets trip-hop. Definitely going to revisit and also check out some of their other records.

Sacul, this strikes me as something you might like.

[Zydar]

The Yardbirds - Roger The Engineer

[ReaperKK]

Turnstile - GLOW ON

[twosuitsluke]

Turnstile - GLOW ON

Gotta be over a year since I spun this. Might blast it on my way home later 

[hefdaddy42]

Rodney Crowell - Jewel of the South

Katatonia - Sky Void of Stars

How'd that go?  I can't recall whether you've listened to them before.

It was fine, but I didn't love it.  Clearly a talented group, but not sure I liked it enough to do a deep dive on their catalog or anything.

That's a great album. Too bad they get progressively worse on each album after that.

I remember quite liking TNT, a lot more than this one, but yeah, they haven't got that many decent albums.

I felt like I needed an ear cleanse today, so I hit some old classics.

Nice! Another Perfect Day is a super-cool Motorhead album...I don't see it mentioned often...maybe because it has a pretty different vibe than the rest of their records...

...and Fire Down Under is fantastic!
