$uicideboy$ - G.R.E.Y.G.O.D.S.
I’m back on “Robbin the hood” from sublime. Old but fantastic.
Been ages since I’ve listened to it until just the other day i took it for a spin. Funny how much i still remember, even those ridiculous Raleigh soliloquies. That really is a great album, crazy how young they were making such good music
Sublime is timeless to me. Wish there were more of it. Looking at you too Blind Melon 😞
Dancing with Mr. Brownstone is pretty predictable unfortunately. RIP to those two and so many more.
I actually grew up near where blind melon were from. Got to see them a few times in small clubs. Drugs are fun until they’re not…

Pink Floyd - The Division Bell
Division Bell was a big one for me too.
I realize this may be a bit of a stretch for some, but an artist called Lindsheaven Virtual Plaza took the opening track Cluster One and made a sprawling 17-minute piece combining portions of the song with his own ambient additions… It’s a track called “Polydreaming Mall” from their album Transversal Worldwide Shopping… I’ve enjoyed listening to it many times: https://underwater-computing.bandcamp.com/track/polydreaming-mall
I took in this concert back then. It was a really great show.
Damn, I imagine it was!
It was! The drum set was incredible. They had a 4 piece choir of really talented singers in the background. It was an incredible show. I was young but it made a real impression. They even flashed back and did the giant pigs falling from the towers. I’ll never forget that night.
Archived. If the link gives you crap, use Firefox…
I already use Firefox so I had no issue. Thanks!
Addendum: If you ever decide to burn that as a CD, you need to remove the default 2 second delay between tracks for the album to play through as intended.
Pink Floyd was always like that, even though they had multiple tracks, their albums were meant to be experienced as a single solid piece of work.
But I’m sure you already knew that. 👍🎶
Gilmour’s guitar work on that album gives me chills just thinking about it. Even after 30 years, Marooned still teleports my mind to some deserted island every time I hear it.
For real, that track is just 😙🤌 Gilmour might be my favorite guitarist.
Currently it is Phantogram’s latest album, “Memory of a Day”.
EDIT: If your interest is recent releases, then I think that mehro’s latest album, “Trauma Lullabies” is also very good though a tad short.
Periphery III
Radiohead - Kid A
Doing 3 because I’m eclectic. They are different enough that I feel justified.
Tool - Fear Inoculum
Run the Jewels 2 (3 is incredible also)
Chappell Roan - The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess
I can listen (have listened recently and frequently) to all three.
I’ve heard of a couple of these. I’ll check them out!
All three Audioslave albums. I just love the fact that they gave Chris Cornell space and didn’t all try and overshadow his vocals.
Right now I’m listening to Cold World - No Omega a lot again
Who’s Who Ulterior Motives baby!
Great thread idea, I’m going to listen to a batch of these as they sound excellent! :)
For me I’m utterly loving the new Kim Deal* album “Nobody Loves You More” - it came out today, and oh yes it’s good!
It’s unexpected with style, almost 60s with brass and strings at times, then there’s other songs that sound modern… and beyond making my ears happy, it’s great songwriting :)
*(Former Pixies bassist and the fronthuman for the Breeders)
Kim Deal rocks! She is one of my all time favorites. I didn’t know she was making music under her own name, I will have to check it out! Thanks!
So I went and listened to the tracks on her bandcamp page. And in a couple days I’ll have the vinyl! What a weird album! I feel like it’s bound to get many repeat listens. So much to take in!
Reminds me of listening to the Alvvays albums. Little awkward at first but clearly something unique and special!
So glad I read your post Go-on-a-steam-train

It’s not my favorite album, but I have been listening to Marcy Playground by Marcy Playground a lot recently. It was one of my first favorite albums and still is.
Module has always been my soundtrack through hard times, and I was fortunate enough to get a signed copy of this album.
It’s a pretty well-constructed compilation and I think it’s worth a listen, no matter what you typically like.
But uh… I might be biased:
