Ask Lemmy

Xanadu

No, not Olivia Newton John's version written by Jeff Lynne...

Rather the one by RUSH.

Loverman, Metallica cover of a song by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. Absolutely recommend.

Mudhead - I understand nothing Galactic - Bounce baby

Sky´s Falling Down by Hypocrisy. I like it, metal is not for everyone tho I realize

R.E.M. - Ages of You. It came up in random rotation of ~5000 MP3s I have on my phone. Great song. Reminds me of being young. I used to belt it out in the car driving around as a teenager. It's on Dead Letter Office which is a collection of b-sides they released in the mid-late 80s.

Right Now?

It'll do if you like pop-punk.

If we're counting what's stuck in my head, it's the live album version of In The Air Tonight by Phil Collins.

HIGHLY recommend either it or the studio version

One Headlight by the Wallflowers. Absolutely yes - it's one of my favorite 90s songs.

My cars AC fans.

in my head? GO! by Flow

The window's open and I can hear the birds singing outside. Yes, I recommend it.

Cam Rao - CHASING

I heard him on a ARIatHOME live stream VOD, found it catchy. Probably recommend but it's not that deep.

Courtney Barnett - Pedestrian At Best

On the way home from work now. I bought her new album and started listening to her older stuff again too: https://youtu.be/o-nr1nNC3ds

Chill math rock JP playlist

https://youtu.be/0Ssi-9wS1so

The song of tinnitus. It sounds like the high pitched squeal of a failing power supply.

Don’t duck with my money- Penguin prison

It’s alright

Disintegration/Free Money by Slayer. Kickass cover and tribute to the original hardcore punk song by Verbal Abuse.

My daughter and I have been listening to Jesse Welles' (Under the Power Lines versions) of Autumn and Anything But Me quite a lot. Certain is also fire, but a little too political for my 6-year-old to grasp.

Snitch to the Suture - Star Fucking Hipsters

Ab-so-fucking-lutely!

Sisters of Mercy - This Corrosion

Hey now, Hey now, now

The magpies outside my window having a lengthy conversation.

My kids are making me play K.K. Slider tracks from Wii's Animal Crossing City Folk in Brewster's Cafe (I am time traveling to Saturday). Cafe K.K. just played.

Do I recommend it? Yeah, cool cat.

Currently I'm listening to Tom Waits' 1983 album Swordfishtrombones. The specific song playing is Frank's Wild Years although it switched to the title track.

Waits for sure has some great songs, but he's an excellent album artist and I would recommend Swordfishtrombones. It's one of his best albums and I would whole heartedly recommend it. Mule Variations, Bone Machine, and Rain Dogs are also fantastic albums. Fair warning though, Tom Waits is very polarizing, you either love him or absolutely hate him.

All I can hear is the fan on my computer blowing. I don't recommend it.

HOME - We're Finally Landing I'd say definitely give it a listen if you like synths.

Pelagic by Covet

Absolutely recommend, very chill instrumental math rock.

I Spy - Dead Kennedys. Yeah it's a good tune

Enheten by Pastoratet, and unless you know swedish, probably not

The Dillinger Escape Plan : One of Us Is the Killer

Yes... if you're into harsh music.

Aesop Rock. It's a mess out there.

Melissa, Mercyful Fate. Yes.

Memphis LK - Some Kinda Heaven. Pretty solid song if you like the Y2K Electronic/Hopecore type of sound. Fun fact: she is actually the daughter of Paul Kelly, who made legendary songs such as Dumb Things and To Her Door.

“Taxi to Baltimore Dub” by Scientist. It has an interesting genealogy: Randy Newman’s song “Baltimore” was done as a reggae cover by Nina Simone, then covered again by an actual reggae band called The Tamlins, which then got remixed/dubbed by Scientist. If you listen to Newman’s and then Scientist’s, they’re effectively unrecognizable in relation other than lyrical snippets. I absolutely recommend it.

ADDERALL by maezi666 . It’s good but you have to like the nightcore adjacent music.

I don't have the album link, but I got the individual link to the song I was listening to while I found thus question: Last Words by nostraightanswer. It's part of their Specters album, which I have on CD and LOVE, so yes I recommend it. This song happens to be about the fear of others passing away.

It's my maybe 4th favorite in that album behind Empty ( about depression ), Lies In Their Blood ( school shootings ) and Face to Face ( dealing with a stalker ). It's a pretty serious album that manages not to be super dreary throughout the whole thing. Would recommend.

Ironstone - Death So Grim

I'd recommend them.

The third movement of Mendelssohn's Concerto for Violin and Orchestra in E Minor, with Hilary Hahn on violin. It's an absolute banger.

Anything by The Flashbulb right now.

Gary numan, Savage. So good . before that, NIN, Fragile

Chemlab - latex

Yes

What I hear right now:
Tuomas Holopainen - The Life and Times of Scrooge
(Genre: Celtic, Heavy Metal (don't agree with claim lol), Symphonic Rock, Rock)
Various - 攻殼機動隊 MEGATECH BODY.Cd.,LTD (Genre: Electro, Tech House, Techno)

Various other songs for which I am to lazy to list.
Usually EDM or J-pop/rock.

Some Artists:
(label) Monstercat Uncaged/Silk
Akatsuki Records
Starset
DECO*27
shiey

Edit:
Forgot to mention, I mention, I really like the releases of "Eye" -> https://open.spotify.com/artist/3zqz8Khnygbv4LJia0v0iY (if you dislike spotify, the artist is also on YT) Specifically "Majestic Sadistic" and "Domestic Drastic"
