Lately I can’t stop listening to this album; [Waco Jesus - Down In Flames](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKv-slXuenQ) just came on again.

Triumvirat - Spartacus

If you've never heard it, definitely worth a listen.

Their best song; this should be a classic that everyone knows.

The roar of the waves on Lake Michigan, actually.

In water there lives yet the echo of the Music of the Ainur more than in any substance else that is in this Earth.

OK, now I’m listening to Jethro Tull’s **Thick as a brick**

Been listening to the new Lupe Fiasco album [Drogas Wave](https://open.spotify.com/album/2liBYuCYfW37CmNkub2BaH?si=mfEJy6hEQaeGEq-2NMi-ag) (Spotify link to whole album)

[YouTube link to just one track](https://youtu.be/F_nRhT83dio)

I have also been listening to Immortal’s album [Son’s of Northern Darkness](https://open.spotify.com/album/1f9lxBFQyaKAgzihQPAG1s?si=elSHMlCyQ4uI-wGASBg-Ug) (Spotify link to full album) as part of my [quest to understand metal music](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=859882). It’s kind of crazy good. Probably the most “fun” Black Metal I have tried.

LOVE good zydeco. Check out Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys.

The Hollies. There’s a discussion on another board that has a bunch of links to some great songs.

And if you like good zydeco, try some good Irish trad. This is a short clip of the Sligo band **Dervish** , in a pub, a while back. Cathy Jordan may not still look this good, but she sounds this good.

Agreed. I have a personal conspiracy theory that the ex-Doper **John Clay** is actually the lead singer, **Neal Fallon**. He was testing out new lyrics here on the board until he was banned. The similarities are eerie. :D.

Thanks to the one-hit wonder thread, I actually just bought Modern English’s _After the Snow_ album. This album is way more post-punk that I was expecting – I hear lots of Gang of Four (or similar) influence over this record (I swear, change the production and arrangement a little on “Tables Turning” or “Life in the Gladhouse” and you have a Gang of Four song), which I was not expecting from only knowing their New Wave pop hit “I Melt With You.” Lots of solid stuff on this album, and I would totally recommend it to anyone into post-punk or early New Wave.

Dude, since we’re here I’ll add my current faves, too. I just bought a new car, and it came with a free satellite radio trial run. BB King has an outstanding Blues channel called Bluesville, and there’s also a Grateful Dead station that plays lots of live Dead music. I’ll add the Deep Tracks station as a third “What I’m listening to now”.
