What are you listening to II: Electric Bogaloo

[Null]

Echo and the Bunnymen sounds like a band name that would have been used in Achewood.

 

[General Specific]

found Langford Slim & the Law by seeing a tv commercial for Autotrader that had the song "Changes" in it. I quickly have become enamored with his/their music.

 

[WasabiPoptart]

Queen. My kids have decided they really like their songs.

[GasBandit]

Hot damn but I don't know if there's another contemporary band that can do the middle 8 better than Muse. Hysteria especially really turns my crank.

As I dive deeper into what Amazon Prime offers, I find myself unable to stop listening to these guys for some reason. Maybe it's because I don't know what the Hell they're saying, so it's good to write code to.

I imagine that they are also handy to have around for the inevitable Boomer attack.

They've gotten fairly popular outside of Japan, which is rare for these idol-type groups.

Speaking of silly and fun Japanese songs:

So why am I posting a 40 year old song, great as it may be?

Because Disturbed has covered it and it is amazing:

If I'm not watching the video, my ears keep telling me it's Red Hot Chili Peppers Crash Test Dummies.

Anthony's range doesn't go that low.

My mistake, got my bands mixed up. I was thinking of Crash Test Dummies.
Except that yes, Brad's voice doesn't get that high*.

*even if Brad, himself, does.

 

[Ravenpoe]

Crash Test Dummies.

Maybe if he forgot the words.

Just a random one that came up during a playlist of a different artist. I kinda like it.

That plays on constant rotation on my local radio station.

If there was a station around here that played that one, I might actually listen to the radio again.

Do you not have a Clear Channel (now iHeartMedia)-affiliated modern rock station near you? That song was huge and all over the radio. It hit number one on Billboard's adult alternative chart. Where I am another of their singles has hit the rotation.

 

[PatrThom]

The video is like what O Brother, Where Art Thou? would be like if it starred Louis C. K. instead of George Clooney.

This new Krizz Kaliko album is fantastic.

CRAZY IN DE COCONUT

No, actually. We have a bunch of different stations owned by iheartradio, but none of them play modern rock. Closest one is 104.7 WNOK and it plays mostly pop and top 40 stuff and has been crap for decades.

The classic rock station around here, 102.3, changed recently to just "Rock" but still plays mostly classic stuff and is the only station I will still listen to without too much complaint.

Funkalicious.

 

[Denbrought]

In a spacey mood.

Dang, Commander Meouch is killin' it.

Yeah, he's in a class of his own. Doc's keyboard solo is pretty slick, too.

e: Turns out that's Ninja Brian soloing the hell out of that synth.

Conan has introduced the String Dance into K-Pop.

He's also scary as shit in makeup.

My brain keeps auto-segueing into "Addicted to Love" just with a faster tempo.

I just listened to the entire soundtrack to Hamilton, start to finish. If I could see the play, I would, because it's awesome, but since I can't this is the next best thing. I didn't know how much I needed a hip hop telling of Alexander Hamilton's life until just now.

 

[CynicismKills]

The good shit.

 

[Ravenpoe]

If you haven't given the Hamilton soundtrack a listen, give it a try. It's available on just about every stream service (and youtube) and it's so good I immediately bought the album upon listening to it.

This is why music piracy is such a priority!

[jwhouk]

I'd suggest the music I'm listening to, but the videos would then be pulled from YouTube by a posthumously peeved Prince.

 

[CynicismKills]

Man this thread loads 10x faster when work blocks Youtube.
