after watching the movie "searching for the wrong eyed jesus", i've got into blues/counrty music. Not the generic/popular style of country music, but the really deep meaningful stuff.

Jim white "christmas day"
thats my fav track of the moment

Beirut - Elephant Gun EP
Sufjan Stevens - Illinois

And all the speed/j/techno/somethingorother - core music that sidke and PALEMOON have turned me on to :D

Antichrist Superstar is an amazing album.

I know some of you might think me daft, but I actually really am enjoying Octahedron.

The Mars Volta, I think this one kind of stuck close to what they're good at. I was a bit disappointed, I didn't hear any spanish, and I kind of love when Cedric sings spanish. Out of the whole album though I like 6 of the songs. Two of them, not so much.

The new Patrick Wolf is very good.

D'où je viens le temps n'existe pas,
Les secondes deviennent des heures,
Les années de courts instant sitôt envolés
Et nos mots trompeurs sont remplacés
Par la musique et les couleurs
Qui flottent commes des parfums dans l'air ambré

I semi-recently found a really pleasing instrumental band called El Ten Eleven. They've got some really cool stuff. Look up My Only Swerving if you want a taste. It's only two guys, the drummer with some electric extensions who occasionally plays keyboard ("...but still pounds the fuck out of his snare and throws in some cowbell to call you out to the dancefloor.") while the other uses some wicked double necked fretted bass guitar. Or something. It's pretty cool.
toasters has introduced me to a sweet artist called Nujabes, and he's really great. I've gotten a bunch of other great stuff from our samplings, but he really stands out.
EDIT: I finally got to listen to the one of his full albums, Metaphorical Music. It is really fantastic. Can't wait to get some of his other stuff.

I'm still listening to a lot of Gorillaz, Radiohead, etc. as well.

That too. :3

On a side note, before I started this post I looked at my "Recently Played" playlist and noticed how there were 327 songs. o_o

Just gotten into Job for a Cowboy which is weird because Im not usually into Death Metal. As always I am listening to Metalcore all the time.

Recently I have been listening to a lot of house, techno and ambient.

Well, I attended Osheaga, Montreal's best two-day music festival, and I thought I'd give some highlights:

Silver Starling: Arcade Fire Lite. Wasn't bad, but wasn't great.
La Roux: Like chewing bubblegum while drowning at the bottom of the ocean. Wasn't great.
Parlovr: Pretty awesome. Very balls.
Gentleman Reg: Mugatu Sings Folk! It was quite good.
Flash Lightin': Unimpressive. Walked away.
The Stills: Way Overrated by the Montreal crowd. Only watched it to be in the front row for...
Lykke Li: Absolutely fantastic. She's heartbreaking as well as completely awesome. Also, she rapped.
Girl Talk: Probably the best or second best thing I saw. Thousands and thousands of sweaty bodies dancing under the command of this weird dude who mashes and writes things like "J TAIME!!!1" on his projector screen. Leaf blowers launching toilet paper and water onto the crowd. Giant balloons filled with smaller balloons thrown out into the audience. All in all, six kinds of awesome.

Day 2:

Beast: Not as good as I was expecting, what with me and Tanner representing their fanbase.
(Went to a restaurant because of Rain, watched repeats of Cake Boss on TLC, went back five hours later.)
The Decemberists: When they work, they really work, but they played all of Hazards of Love, so there were some slowpoints. Mainly, whenever Becky Stark took the microphone away from Meloy.
Heartless Bastards: A surprise. Good, if a little bit too country at times. The drummer was excellent.
Hey Rosetta!: The one thing that compares to Girl Talk in sheer awesome. Arcade Fire meets The Hold Steady, and we were a crowd of at least a thousand who knew all of the words and loved to dance. It was absolutely beautiful.
And I went home, because I was wet and didn't think Crystal Castles would be very fun after Hey Rosetta!

The Stills are the worst band I've ever seen live. And I'm including the you-less Hooke's Law that played the Freak Show.

Also, what the fuck. Why did no one ever tell me that the Hold Steady were like an indie-cool Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band? Hell, even referring to them as a Brooklyn-based indie-rock band would have been enough to get me interested.

I've been giving Sigur Ros a chance lately. They aren't bad. Blows my mind that their lead singer is a guy.

Oh, and weezer.

I saw him live at Sasquatch! Music Festival in May and he was easily one of the best performances of the entire weekend. Did you know he's performing a 24-hour concert in Chicago on December 21, 2012?

I enjoyed that. Perfect timing too, I've just been listening to Silent Alarm. Other than that my friend put me on to The Dismemberment Plan by lending me Emergency & I.

I plugged in a speaker to my DS and polayed Fire Emblem songs for 3 hours while working in a trading post at a summer camp.

Listened through In The Aeroplane Over The Sea. I must say, I met my strangely high expectations for it and more. It beats On Avery Island by a landslide. One of the best albums I've gotten this year.

/me listens through it some more
