What albums did you listen to today?

The Bearded Bard wrote: Cool that you enjoyed them. Their last album is the best of those I've heard (that excludes "Surfin' USSR", which isn't available on Spotify). More prog fusion than their earlier works, but still got that crazy gypsy jazz thing going, to some extent. I really need to get all their albums though, and quick too! My walllet's trembling in fear just by the thought of it.  My picks today: Blue Öyster Cult - s/t Blue Öyster Cult - Tyranny and Mutation  Blue Öyster Cult - Secret Treaties Blue Öyster Cult - Agents of Fortune Blue Öyster Cult - Spectres Great day, well, up until AoF at least, then it dropped of slightly. Thoroughly enjoyed the first three though, as I always do with BÖC, and especially the debut and "Secret Treaties".

That sounds interesting, I'll keep on listening.

I only know two songs from BÖC (from playing Guitar Hero too ), I think I should give them a listen as well, it sounds like something I'll enjoy

Today:
Arena - The Unquiet Sky (This one gets better with every spin! )
Pink Floyd - A Saucerful of Secrets (My favourite 60's Floyd album, I especially love the title track it's amazing )
The Flock - Truth
Modry Efekt - Svitanie
Island - Pictures
Brotherhood of the Machine - Trip Hazard

1974- The Battle for the Lazer Fortress
1974 - The Return
1974 - A Soldier's Tale
1974 - The Death of the Herald
Yesterdays - Holdfenikert

Nuova Era - IL Passo Del Soldato

^^^^^ I'll listen to those five albums in order

Yesterday:
Som Imaginário - Matança do Porco

Today:
The Mars Volta - De-loused in the Comatorium (Great album Audun! I hear the Post Rock sound you warned me about, but I found tolerable because it has more than just loud guitar during the entire album, unlike most Post Rock I listened. It has organ, electric piano that reminded me of Herbie Hancock, Mellotron, cool vocals, percussion that sounds like Santana's music, and some quite spacey moments. Diversity in moods and instruments is what I like in music )
Jefferson Airplane - After Bathing at Baxter's
Heldon - Agneta Nilsson
Heldon - Interface
Heldon - Stand By
Goblin - Roller
Mort Garson - Plantasia

^ I think it would be better if the keyboards would be more on foreground and the guitars would leave more space them, but at least they're there  It's interesting that I prefer playing the guitar over keyboards, but I prefer listening to music with more keyboards than guitar

I started listening to them last week, precisely with Surrealistic Pillow. I really liked both but it's still early to pick a favourite

Jaga Jazzist- One Armed Bandit

Hooray, Nick got `The Unquiet Sky' (and apparently a bunch of other Arena goodies!)

What did you think of that FEM album, Sam? I really like it, I listen to it pretty often, tons of great moments throughout it...it might be a little long (or feels like it in a few spots), but I've come to really love that album!

Sorry for not posting much in here the last week or so, fellas! I'm on holidays at the moment for another few days, so I haven't been travelling in and out of work which is when I listen to most of my music, but I'll be back in action come next week!

I don't care what instuments are used as long as the music's good. That said, if a flute's involved, I'm sold!
