July - What are you listening to? (Books AND music)

[Richards]

I just picked up Suzanne Vega's latest CD, "Beauty and Crime." Very cool.

Johnathan

 

[GlassJaw]

My new favorite band: The Cribs.

 

[Asmo]

Have you heard the new album, Amaran's Plight? It's really quite good.

Yes, it´s quite good, but you can hear that Gary Wehrkamp (Shadow Gallery) is the driving force of this line-up.
I think the music would have been much more unique if the Shadow Gallery influences hadn´t been that strong. I like Shadow Gallery, but I had hoped that Gary would have tried something different with this group.

Yea -- his sound is all over this album. Kinda like Neal Morse's Sound (and Roine Stolt's) is all over Transatlantic.

Not that it's a bad thing though.

Well, July turned out to be the prog-month

Just stumbled over http://darkwater.se/, wich is a new Swedish progmetal band that sounds really great. Check them out!

[Flexor the Mighty!]

Listeing to Dr. Who audios from the 5th Doctor.

Music the only thing I'm really into lately is 70's Judas Priest.

 

[Wik]

The White Stripes.

Hell yeah!

I've been getting into them quite a bit, lately - In the past month, I've purchased Elephant, Get Behind me Satan, and Icky Thump. I really love the last album, in particular - it's just so crazy and an excellent mix of prewar blues and modern garage rock. Crazy stuff.

Also been listening to Muse's new album, the (sort of) new Tool album (love it, since I saw 'em live), and, as usual, Zeppelin.

I'm listening to sports talk radio; football is nigh!
