Topic: What are you listening to right now?

I’ve been listening to the discography of the Cocteau Twins recently, and I’m really impressed. The only album I’ve listened to previously was Heaven or Las Vegas, but there is actually more interesting and experimental stuff they worked on in the 80s. Victorialand in particular has a atmosphere all of its own and it is really mesmerizing. Sort of reminds me of choral music like Gregorian chant, but you can also hear some Celtic folk revival influences creeping in with some of the vocal harmonies (Clannad in particular).

@NotTelevision Nice stuff, almost picked up a Clannad CD at my local yesterday but decided I'd hold off til the wallet was a little heavier. And yea, CT's older stuff is very strong. Quite a big fan of Treasure and Victorialand, as well as a pretty much all the EPs from '83 to '86.

As autumn rolls in I can start listening to more reflective music again.

It’s been mostly Bach, Burial and Brew for me this week.

@cryptologous I think Clannad 2 and Dúlamán are their strongest albums. I think Clannad got pretty cheesy in the 80s, so I wouldn’t recommend those.

Listening to Singles Going Steady for the first time in a while. Still one of favorite records of that period.

Just noticed how Howard Devoto reused that riff from “ Lipstick” in the Magazine track “Shot By Both Sides”. Can’t believe I didn’t hear that before.

Jakub is really pushing the limits of accessible and progressive guitar-based music right now. One of the most beautiful records I've heard in a minute, feel like a lot of it would make for an insane OST over a title like Gorogoa.

The more 80's the better for me!

With less than three months left in the decade, how about a chart topper that's nearly a decade old?

This one's been stuck in my head lately.

God, I love this game so much.

The yearly event for King Gizzard Fans:

Great album. Really relaxing and peaceful but also somewhat intense at times.

I don't get to as many concerts these days as sadly most of my favourite artists are no longer with us.

But I did see The Twilight Sad last week who were better than I was expecting, so I'm listening to them. Nick Cave's new album too and I've go a ticket to see him next year.

I've also just discovered Arab Strap, about 20 years too late!

Many things.
But the most indie rock and indie folk sweet fibes

This has become a favorite holiday song with a beat for myself, family, and friends. A jam, if you will.

Sorry if it's early for this, but I didn't want to forget to share it.
