What Are You Listening To Right Now? II

s_k · 03-04-2011, 07:49 PM

Just went through 40 pages of this topic to get to know some new bands.
Will be doing Last Downloaded and Albums you're digging tomorrow.

I just read this and I figured I'd have a go at translating it myself

Elevated completely
from the earth
The space ship is floating
Completely without gravity

I know a bit of German because I live only a couple of hundred yards from Germany (literally).

Thanks for the tips again people.
I noticed that Burning Down & I Should get along when it comes to music.
I like a lot of what she posts

There's a reason why this song/vid blew up. Can't stop listening to it.

I'm listening to People of the Earth by Graham Coxon. The lyrics make me laugh. "People of the Earth, your world is crap. You ain't even on the universe map." I would post a link but I'm new and haven't gotten to 15 posts yet.

I'm listening to "Closure" by Arcana, a group I learned about due to MB's very own former member The Unfan. I like the solemn, meditative sound of this piece:

Arcana - "Closure"

Arcana - "Sigh of Relief" is also very restful and pleasantly eerie, although rather monotonous:

Goodness!

That is a long image name! I am really curious now what the image would be if I could see it.

Here's your song:

Fistful of Mercy - Fistful of Mercy

I like the lyrics:

"We have a way of saving our own lives.
Maybe it's soft inside of hard
fistful of mercy.
Maybe it comes from where we are,
land of the thirsty, the hungry."

Probably one for the ugly album art topic

It's a dutch 70's progrock band.
If you like Kayak, you will probably like this better.
I think it's brilliant, way better than Kayak. But these guys only made one poper album. The rest is just plain awful.

Surprisingly good! Reminds me of 'Green' and that's a good thing.

Alternative Rock from the Netherlands. So yes it has an Hammond organ

How are you finding it? I've been listening to Orchards/Lupine from this year and thats quite good.

That is indeed a very interesting album: I owned it at one point but now I can't seem to find it anywhere. :/

Also, that cover art isn't ugly at all! Its surreal and fantastic.
