Basically been listening to this for over a year..
Stream is 8 days older than our son

The Black Keys have very quickly become one of my favorite bands.
I'm extremely happy I've found these guys, they are wonderful

I've been super addicted to this one from Hotline Miami 2


And here's a weird funky track I ran into:

A bit of Groove Armada

Listened to GTA's K-Rose and Rebel Radio... now country hits haunts me q.q

Was in the mood for a Fleetwood Mac album.


A lot of great tracks on this album, especially:

• Don't Stop
• Silver Springs
• The Chain
• Oh Daddy
• Gold Dust Woman

Some 'easy' listening King Crimson.
King Crimson does a lot of improv and experimental stuff and so many of their tracks are ridiculously cacophonic, but once in a while they hit some unique lovely melody that just takes you places.

I really like the free-spirited style of The Who tracks.

Currently exploring Chicago

I've listened to their first 2 albums now: Chicago Transit Authority and Chicago II.
It's not quite the usual stuff I listen to, but I think I'll learn to like it a lot.
My impression is that pretty much everything they produce is good, but simultaneously it's bit hard to pick highlights because I'm not that attuned to it yet. They're a little bit hard to put down as they seem to produce anything from rock to almost classical
I guess a bit like a less experimental King Crimson...

Here are some of the tracks I've like the most.

Introduction
First track on Chicago Transit Authority. This kind Jazz Rock seems to be their bread and butter.


Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?
This feels a bit familiar for some reason. Is it used frequently in movies?


Listen
Bread and butter stuff.


Poem for the People
First track on Chicago II to catch my attention.


25 or 6 to 4 (25 or 26 minutes to 4 o'clock)
Coming off the classic rock train right now, this is the only real highlight for me so far. I don't remember where I heard it, but this is what introduced me to Chicago in the first place. It's part of the Chicago II album. It's mainly due to the very similar guitar riff, but it feels like a 'Big Band' take on Led Zeppelin's Babe I'm gonna leave you.


Memories of Love
A little mini classical/jazz/blues/opera thing (Is that a thing??). One of 3 'operas' on the album.
In reality this piece is credited as 4 separate tracks: Prelude, A.M. Mourning, P.M. Mourning, Memories of Love.
It fits kind of nicely next to King Crimson's Bolero

Now listening to Moody OSTs...

Across the Spiderverse intro is fucking awesome!

Oasis - (What's the Story) Morning Glory


Great album

Another good album

• Steely Dan - Can't Buy A Thrill

For some reason I'm binging some non-English tracks.

Bulgarian:



German:



Dutch:



Spanish:




I wish Nena - Irgenwie,irgendwo,irgenwann would get a proper remaster/remake. The audio quality just isn't there and I feel like it would benefit from a little bit of modernization. I basically want something like that version with Kim Wilde, but without the Kim Wilde...

edit:
Bonus German:

Pearl Jam - Yield

Great Album, Awesome Energy!
I don't think there's a single bad song on there

Biggest highlights for me:

Brain of J.
Awesome energetic catchy start to the album. That "Whole world will be different soon" loop is just such an earworm.


Faithfull
Not too much to say here. It's simply a well-rounded track.


No Way
I like that guitar riff.


Do the Evolution
The centerpiece of the album. Surely this has to be one of the most legendary music videos out there, right?
The song is so angry, but it's with the accompanying clip that it truly shines!
Also Death is hot

Low Light
A bit of softer rock, to balance out the album after all the angrier tracks that preceded it.


All Those Yesterdays + Hummus
A 'two for one' deal. first a bit more of the 'soft' rock (relatively speaking), and then hidden bonus track in the form of Hummus: A weird little out of place medley, but not unpleasant at all.

Not sure how I found this artist anymore, they don't play 'em on the radio on this side of the globe, but AJR seems to have some really great songs sometimes.

• World's Smallest Violin
• I Won't
• Maybe Man

Another Oasis album:

Oasis - Definitely Maybe


Not quite as many hits as '(What's the Story) Morning Glory', but still a great album.

These three tracks are the big highlights for me:

Live Forever


Columbia


Married with Children

This... mixup? is awesome

BT - The Secret Language of Trees

Excellent IDM / Ambient (?) album mix by BT.


Shame about the AI visuals though

I can't get over how amazing the OST is for Heroes of the Storm's Hanamura stage.


It's so epic D:

And on a sidenote...
How is the real Hanamura track from Overwatch so terrible!?
It starts off well enough, but then the percussion arrives and it just becomes dreadful...
like some sort of production error with 2 separate tracks playing through one another... WTF?
