Ulver - It Is Not Sound

7000th Post!!!!

TV on the Radio's "Return to Cookie Mountain" album. Not as good as I had hoped

and i'm telling you, you're not going -jennifer hudson
from the dream girls soundtrack -

Mini review of this song - I am a HUUUUGE Jennifer Holliday fan - who performed this song in the show on broadway so I'm biased- it's an ok version but nope it really isn't great - She sounds like a Joss stone wannabe... The song itself has so much passion in it and hudson just doesn't have it...

I bought the cd because i had read a review that said she was awesome and would "own" this song - (perhaps because she's a chicago native and it was a chicago paper :D Sorry -nope - Jennifer Holliday will forever own that song.

the rest of th songs on the soundtrack are good - beyonce i could take or leave - but eddie murphy can really sing...

Dave Douglas - Live At The Jazz Standard

If anyone's interested, check this out. This has to be some sort of jazz first:

He had each set available for purchase the day after it was recorded. This is pretty fast turnaround time! Yay internets!

luc ferrari: petit symphonie intuitive pour un paysage de printemps

The B-52's - Moon 83

THIS IS THE SPACE AGE

Garden State Soundtrack (yes, I don't just listen to classical...). One of my favorite songs on the CD is Simon and Garfuunkel's "The Only Living Boy in New York". The song is really something special, and it was the last song before Simon and Garfunkel split which gives it even more meaning.

Dragonforce - Inhuman Rampage (2006)
this is the kind of music i love to discover! I thought i hated all "heavy rock/metal w/e" but without the yelling in the songs, the guitar is realllly great!
i found this through the Guitar hero forum.

Volbeat - I Only Want to be With You

Jay-Z - Kingdom Come

Dream Theater - A Change of Seasons :D

I Can't Get My Head Around It - Aimee Mann

...grooving and singing along...

the greatest - cat power

Derek And The Dominos - Got To Get Better In A Little While - Live At The Fillmore

Beach Boys - Little Bird

Supposedly written by one Chas. Manson...

Gabriel & Dresden - Tracking Treasure Down

what an orgasmic tune...

Don Caballero - World Class Listening Problem

Panic! At the Disco. I don't know why, but I really love this album.

Dragonforce, mainly the twin solo guitars, are freaking awesome. Sonic Firestorm is an awesome album. Excellent listening!

AND, honestly (check my last.fm page if you think I'm lying!) http://www.last.fm/user/LeBacon/

alan lamb: night passage
from "original masters: night passage 1983-1997"

recordings of what lamb calls the faraway wind organ, "a half a mile of abandoned telegraph wire i found still standing in the far outback of western australia"--it is stunning stuff. amazing sounds, almost infinite scale.

I'm usually not a big fan of the sound landscape used by Enslaved, but the transitions on this song are just so great, they want me want to listen to it all day long! :)
