What have you listened to today?

[mvd]

Could be music, radio, or anything.

I've sampled some music not yet in my collection. Here are my takes:

Thumbs up!
----------
Postal Service (will buy)
Eisley (will buy)
Golden Republic (likely will buy)
Razorlight (likely will buy)
Girl Called Eddy (will buy)
The Thrills (ordered first album, which is wonderful! Second is also likely worth it.)
The new Jimmy Eat World album (big fan, so I'm not surprised I love it - I ordered)
Lee Ann Womack's latest (too bad she's a Repuke - I bought the album anyway.)
Brie Larson (likely will order)
Ellie Lawson (likely will order)
Ted Leo
Martha Wainwright

Ehhhh for now
-------------

Rachael Yamagata


Thumbs down
-----------

New 3 Doors Down album (boring with a capital B this time!)
Arcade Fire
The Killers
New Jennifer Lopez song (absolutely abysmal!)
Bright Eyes (though I like his anti-Bush song)
Charlotte Martin (there's only 1 Tori Amos)
J-Me

Also listened to sports radio.

1. Eisley rules!

Highly recommended.

[mvd]

5. So true!

I got to hear their full new album and fell in love with it.

[democracyindanger]

2. The BBC report a bunch of depressing stuff

[yellowdogintexas]

3. a whiney b()*&& complain about not getting a cake

[shesemsmom]

4. All I've listened to is a bunch of bitchin'

[Spider Jerusalem]

6. I'm on a David Bowie kick today.

Listening to "Station to Station" right now..."Golden Years" is the track playing at the moment.

[ignatius 2]

7. NPR,got sick of them when our local crapola came on and put in

Bat out of Hell..

[Lautremont]

8. Thumbs down on the Arcade Fire?

I think that's a great album - it might well turn out to be one of those growers for you. Of course, who has the money to shell out for albums you might like when there are so many you know you will like, I guess.
And bands like that shouldn't be liked by everybody, because if it was it would probably be a lot less interesting.

[mvd]

9. Admittedly, I've heard only samples from Funeral

But you're right, I have limited money and can only buy the ones I think I'd like.

[mark414]

11. well Funeral is their only album...

they do have an earlier EP but it's not as good as Funeral...

i'd say, at least once, just listen to the album the whole way through...i'll even send it to you over AIM or MSN if you want to hear the whole thing...

it is an album i think everyone should hear at least once...

[mvd]

13. Thanks for the offer

I don't use instant message, though. I'll see what I can find at their website..

[NV Whino]

10. A cat snoring

The black one. The others don't snore.

[ScreamingMeemie]

12. Eminem's Encore and assorted radio stations.

:hi:

[mvd]

15. Hi, MrsGrumpy!

Thanks for checking in! :hi: Is Eminem's Encore as good as his other stuff? I've heard various things in that regard.

[ScreamingMeemie]

20. Hi mvd!! I think it's a really good CD. I tried for a long time to not

like his music, and I just can't help myself. He's very talented. :hi:

[WindRavenX]

14. The Postal Service, The Shins, Rufus Wainwright...

...Moby, U2, Bach...

[B Calm]

16. I listened to Malloy's Monday night show on my neuros mp3 (cont)

player, and also listened to two Hallmark Old Time Radio shows. The first show was titled "Uncle By's two wifes" starring Shirley Temple Black. The second show was titled "Joseph discovers America".. It was about an immigrant working in a steel mill and falling in love with a young Poilsh girl..

[Beaverhausen]

17. WXPN- the best radio station

streaming it here at work.

[Pale Blue Dot]

18. I like the Postal Service and the Thrills.

I will try out the others. Is Martha as good as her brother?

[mvd]

19. Well.. she's different

I like Rufus a lot and couldn't really tell if she's better from what I heard. She has a vulgar folk song called "BMFA," and the others were slightly caberet-like.

[driver8]

23. I got the new Thrills album...

I'm not really liking it very much, however. I saw them warm up for the Pixies and thought I would check out the cd. I think I'm going to sell it to the used cd guy.

[mvd]

24. The first one does sound better

In fact, it sounds excellent to me. Try So Much For The City. :hi:

[livinginphotographs]

21. Mostly in my car...

MC Chris
Dinosaur Jr
Death Cab for Cutie
Calla

Usually, it would just be one, but I was feeling kind of picky today.

22. GamingFM's stream
