If you haven't yet heard him, you need to listen to some Jamiroquai. He's this european guy that has a real Stevie Wonder meets Funky Acid Jazz feel. If you don't think he is worth listening to, find a copy of his song "Black Capricorn Day" and you'll be convinced this guy kicks total ass.

I never really liked him, although my dad has played his stuff for ages. I just recently got some $250 dollar speakers with insane bass and all his stuff got better smiley

Honestly though, check him out. If you have seen Napolean Dynamite, when Napolean dances after Pedro's speech, the song he dances to is "Canned Heat" by Jamiroquai.

Blaaaaaaa, listen to his stuff, it'll make ytou a better person. [addsig]

Jamiroquai is definitely an acquired taste, and isn't my sort of thing, though some of his songs (like Virtual Insanity) are quite catchy, and the one he did for the Godzilla soundtrack has one hell of an opening to it.

Oh, and he's British... Just personal preference there, but I find the term 'European' so wrong. smiley

Just got the 'Yourcodenameis:Milo' and 'The Explosion' albums today. Both really good. smiley

Evanescence has been in my CD player lately. This trend is partially inspired by the Half-Life 2 music video with Breaking Benjamin's "So Cold". They are along the same genre, which is hard to pin-point. It's not metal, yet it's got more edge than the typical rock. Hard rock, maybe? [addsig]

Ambulance Ltd. - LP - Poppy rock or something similar. 4.5/5

Blonde Redhead - In An Expression Of The Inexpressible - Completely insane, kinda hard to listen to sometimes. 4/5

Eels - Beautiful Freak - Quality old-skewl Eels CD. 4.5/5

Eels - Blinking Lights And Other Revelations - Two CDs of Eels goodness, oh my. 4.5/5

The Dears - No Cities Left - Pretty damn good, though "Lost in the Plot" is a real bitch to listen to due to the fact that it's got a great intro and outro, but the chorus in the middle is incredibly "eww." 4/5

I used to listen to a lot of that punk/whiney stuff senior year in highschool, and now that its been more than a couple years, there are only two bands from that era that I can still stand.

"Brand New" and "Taking Back Sunday". I prefer Brand New, but they're both rather good if you like layered vocals, a little bit of screaming (on some songs), some catchy guitar and what is essentially a poppy/catchy beat (in both their freshman albums Brand New - Your Favorite Weapon and Taking Back Sunday - Tell All Your Friends, respectively).

Brand New's sophomore album, "Deja Entendu" is really good. They've matured quite a bit in their sound, with some slower more serious ballads. If their first CD was a highschool anthem, this is the album is for Juniors and Seniors in college. I guess I like it because I can relate. Anyway, worth checking out. Particularly the songs "The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows" "The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot" "Guernica" "Sic Transit Gloria... Glory Fades" and "Play Crack The Sky".

Taking Back Sunday's sophomore album "Where You Want to Be" is alright. A few songs grow on you, but a few songs are just bad.

Check out Brand New.

New Coldplay and Foo Fighters songs this week- life is good (there's even a mini-solo in the Foo song!!1). The new White Stripes and Weezer ones are pretty good, too.

Just got Speed of Sound by Coldplay - damn it's good. Vaguely reminiscent of Clocks as well...

I've also (re)started listening to Bloc Party - Helicopter, The Pioneers, and Compliments are great tracks (imo, of course smiley )

Man, if Coldplay can put out another great album, they will have made it as a legitimately good band. Two good albums could be a fluke, but three would remove all doubt.

Clocks was the only Coldplay song I liked; if they manage to put out a whole album like Speed of Sound, I'm sold.

And to listen to the new Foo Fighters song, listen to the beginning of Zane Lowe's last show.

"Tiptoe, through the window, by the window, that is where I'll be, so tiptoe through the tulips with meeeeee."

Oh man, what a funny guy. I don't know why I know those lyrics, and I am ashamed.

Why would you want to listen to Tiny Tim anyways? It's earal-abuse. [addsig]
