I agree 100%. Took a while to grow on me too.thellama73 wrote:I am listening to Electric Light Orchestra's Eldorado, which I like better every time I hear it. It lacks the immediacy of singles like Evil Woman or Mr. Blue Sky, but it holds together as an album superbly, and I'm increasing convinced that it is their best work, second only to Out of the Blue.
If you haven't heard it in a while (or at all) I would encourage you to give it a spin.

It's actually a whole series. It is odd, it is his wife, the co-author/illustrator, that led me to the Decemberists. I was looking for a specific piece of artwork, a poster, for a friend, and I ran across one of her posters for the Decemberists, and it was so haunting & scary, yet lovely (almost reminiscent of Richard Scarry) and i found that poster so intriguing that I looked them up.Epignosis wrote:He wrote a kids novel.

It's not much or anything special, but in case you feel like having something open in the background while working [like I am] or lounging, Sigur Ros are streaming a 24-hour trip on Iceland's Route One, mixed with a slow ambient (as far as I understand, random-generated by a programm from several samples) soundtrack.
The scenery is quite nice.

Re: What Song Are You Listening to Right Now?
Listening to some mid 2000s throwbacks and just needed to post my favorite song of all time. Yes all time!!! I listen to a lot of ~alternative~ stuff (although I hate saying that because it's so annoying/pretentious sounding) mostly nowadays (lol thanks to my days in #piano IRC in 2011? 2012? where users enrique and nutella seriously showed me so many great songs/artists and stuff wow the time i spent on that chat really influenced my music taste), I still really appreciate pop music and don't get me started with people who refuse to listen to any pop song! However, most pop music right now isn't really doing anything for me - how can we as a society let Carly Rae Jepsen flop, but let Meghan Trainor succeed? There is the occasional Beyonce/Ariana Grande bop (Into You song of the year?), but I am yearning for some Nelly Furtado/Gwen/Fergie/2007 Britney sort of sound.
Britney Spears honestly, although an icon, is someone who I still find criminally underrated! Her discography is full of certified bops, and I root for her so hard just because of her story. In 2007, she had a total breakdown while the paparazzi/media swarmed her, and it was honestly so sad to watch. Everyone expected her career not only to be over but for her to burn out in a blaze of glory and die or something! However, even while this was all going on, she released one of the best albums of the decade (Blackout), and don't forget that she was the executive producer!
Also, I've never been 100% sold on a song so fast. When I heard "It's Britney, bitch" for the first time in Middle School I was sold.

Re: What Song Are You Listening to Right Now?
Nick Cave & The Bad Seed... my God. His 15 year old son died falling off of a cliff after the songs for the new album were written, but before they were recorded. Cave has admitted that he hasn't come to grips with what has happened, and it permeates every song on the album... he frequently sounds broken, old, tired, exhausted. It's like nothing I've ever heard from them before.
My siggie.
