GeraintElberion- Love the original Nostromo track (thanks for the new band to dig around in). Usually cant get with the symphonic or unplugged renditions of METAL tracks!
as far as loud and mean songs, recently Ive been listening to:
Prong - Snap your Fingers Snap your Neck
Voivod - Warriors of Ice ***EDIT: Voivod has a new record out. hmmm. merry xmas to myself :)
That Machinehead track (and the album, Burn My Eyes) was one of the records that got me into metal. Great song.
Favourite Stones track is probably this one, which probably marks my card as a sentimental duffer.
Not in my book, anyway.
This post plus KJ's post with the Gram Parsons tribute makes this an obligatory link.
I was gonna do a whole Cosmic American Music post, but I'm f$@+ing beat from work and I think I can only stay awake for two more:
Okay, I lied, one more:
Charlie Walker, for no particular reason.

The Soundtrack to Wicked.
D Train - Youre the One for Me
Billy Preston and Sly Stone - Cant She Tell
Drunken Nomad continues to deliver the goods! Even if it takes me a couple of weeks to listen to it!
Been revisiting some old girlfriends lately, and threw on Ladyhawke's self-titled debut.
It's weird, because she's mostly a Pat Benatar retro clone, and I don't really care one way or the other for Pat Benatar, but I love this album.
My Delirium
Magic
Paris Is Burning (which throws in some Gary Numan for shiznit and giggles)
Back of the Van
Oops. Forgot one.

I love Christmas but can tire of the repeated Christmas classics.
Great as it is, I can tire of Noddy Holder bellowing "It's Christmas!", Wizzard and even Stop The Cavalry (which, I assume, is Doodle Claus' favourite Christmas song).
So, I have been enjoying the For Folk's Sake Christmas compilations, especially the 2011 edition with Caitlin Rose's song which sums up my family Crimble experience.
Add Strut's stuff (pun intended) and I'm really enjoying my Christmas stereo.

Well as it is finally officially out!
Daniel Ingram: My Little Pony - Songs of Friendship and Magic.
Because I'm now getting prog withdrawal symptoms, here's Mack Sigis Porter - Sunday in Neon Lights
My drunken anarcho-syndicalist hetero life partner lurks a lot on this site but doesn't post much. I guess he listened to this track, was blown away, and bought it on vinyl for me for Christmas!
Thanks Black Goblin and thanks Limeylongears!!!

...and Morgen THANKS! I know some Bronies? that will love that link!
and yes completely in love with Ladyhawke. Someone told me she suffers tourettes and singing is the only way she can calm herself? Like the stuttering Mel Tillis I guess.
how did I miss Sunday in Neon Lights? All those obscure bands linked on the right side of the page...mmm. Thanks to Limey and BlackGoblin too!

Morgen loving Bronies?
Oh, I see - Morgen, and not Morgen
Mack Sigis Porter loving anarcho-syndicalists?
Life is good. That album is a smasher.
However.
One I recently posted in the Gender Wars thread under the heading More Marxism.
She's So Unusal slays me.
Now for something completely different...Dan Balan - Chica Bomb...NSFW-ish

(which, I assume, is Doodle Claus' favourite Christmas song)
As a proletarian who loads trucks bound for overpriced mall stores, I am a proud foot soldier in the War on Christmas, but, if I were forced to choose my faves Xmas song it would be a toss-up between Ray Davies's ode to yuletime class war (linked above) or this holiday season seven inch put out years ago by snot-nosed Boston punkateers, The Showcase Showdown.

Pretty early in the morning for a Monday Morning Jazz Brunch but snowstorms over the weekend meant that there wasn't much work today.
As per usual, seeing Kirth Gersen not particularly like something only makes me dig out of my boxes in the basement.
The album, the legend. I think I've got three different books about this record.
Also, Jim Hall, R.I.P.

Some rough tracks from my son's band, My Brother, My Friend's upcoming CD.
I'm really behind on listening to everyone's posts, but for Friday's Funk and because I've been listening to it pretty hardcore at work
Martha and the Vandellas--The Ultimate Collection
I think Martha and co. may have been the awesomest female act Motown had.
She could do the pop numbers just as well as Diana, plus she could do the soul numbers the latter couldn't even think of singing.
For the former:
I Can't Dance to That Music
Live Wire
The latter:
Also, stream-of-consciousness-wise, somewhere in the lengthy interview with Stephin Merritt, not a particularly emotive dude, that make up the liner notes for The Magnetic Fields' 69 Love Songs, he goes on about war was always a great excuse for sentimentality in popular music.
Which is a long way of saying:
Bob Rivers Twisted Christmas CDs:
Twisted Christmas
I Am Santa Claus
More Twisted Christmas
Chipmunks Roasting On An Open Fire
White Trash Christmas

Potemkine, a French fusion band from the '70s.
Foetus is my fave - they also released one called Nicholas II, but that's a bit more standard jazz fusion than the first.
And more from the Michal Urbaniak band - Seresta, which has got one hell of a break on it.
Something jangly and seasonal - Snowballs, by Jacques Caramac

Some tracks to keep you warm and movin on that dance floor...or desk chair :)
Tom Browne - Thighs High (Grip your Hips and Move)
Add Strut's stuff (pun intended) and I'm really enjoying my Christmas stereo.
+1,000
I almost missed this.

Reliving my youth with KMFDM of which Youtube seems to have a good supply...
Also, ran across this hipster's Top 40 Albums of 2013 list. While I wasn't terribly shocked that I hadn't heard any of these records, I did realize with a bit of a start that I don't think I've heard any records from 2013...unless somebody posted them to WPZO.
Today's fun-time at-work musical moment was listening to the aforementioned Haitian dude singing a ditty he'd made up that's destined to become a classic:
Overworked and underpaid/That's the UPS way
It doesn't matter if you're black or white/UPS's gonna f#!& you in the ass
Lack of proper lubrication has been a running theme at work this Christmas. (Actually, it's a running theme at work regardless of the season.)

this hipster's Top 40 Albums of 2013 list. ...unless somebody posted them to WPZO.
the ones Ive posted from that list are mostly throwback/retro sounds.
Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats
Bowie
Lady
Jonathan Wilson
Queens of the Stone Age
...and definitely the best album of the year
Miss Janelle Monae
oh and I should have posted this one. LOVE the disgusting lo-fi SFX
Franz Ferdinand - Evil Eye NSFW-ish
...and Im out for a couple days. Heading to my sisters house for the holidays. Her kids are super hyped up! Going to watch Jaws 1 and 2 tonight and see what they think of them. (Aged 12, 10, 7)
Have fun!
I definitely recognized Ms. Monae from your dutiful posting, dn, and now that you mention it, I remember a couple of the others.
[Bows dutifully]
WPZO: Keeping Doodlebug hip!
oh and I should have posted this one. LOVE the disgusting lo-fi SFX
Franz Ferdinand - Evil Eye NSFW-ish
Pretty sick. I always did like them. Even my nihilist punk ethos purist buddy from way back who had absolutely no use for three-fourths of this shiznit [gestures indicating the whole thread] admitted shamefacedly that he liked their first album.

Any list featuring loving reviews of Kanye West and the Pet Shop Boys is one I'm going to take with a few grains of salt...
