"Heroes and Villains" is one of the best songs EVER.

Outkast - Call The Law

Idlewild seems pretty good so far, though nothing on Stankonia or Aquamini.

Oxbow - ...The Stick

Man, Oxbow are pretty good. Kind of like taking The Jesus Lizard's Liar with Mogwai's Young Team.

Heard it all day. It is relaxing and strange and it is just what I need right now. It is my little brother's cd but he never listens to it and so I liberate it once in a while. Curiously it is also one of the only cds either of us own which does not have vocals.

Well, Shadows Collide With People is only one I have heard of his but it is damned good. If you want something more avantgarde and dark, I'm told the double album Niandra LaDes and Usually Just a T-Shirt is good. Though he later admitted that those and Smile From the Streets You Hold was pretty much made to get drug money. When he cleaned up he became a workaholic and released a flurry of albums where To Record Only Water for Ten Days is for the lo-fi people. SCWP is more produced but still raw and has these off-beat "synth noise" tracks that goes with the otherworldly feel his music has. It is miles from RHCP territory and much better in my opinion. Also John is a surprisingly good vocalist, his voice cracks and strains and he alternates to a falsetto frequently. It hasn't been destroyed by his rough life but rather it has been shaped or "refined" by it. Not unlike Tom Waits in a way but without any resemblance of course.

Still listening to Shadows Collide With People, it is quite long.

Ulver - Theme's From William Blake's the Marriage of Heaven and Hell

I've heard several bands attempt to put "the Marriage of Heaven and Hell" to music (including an eerie syntheziser peice by Judas Iscariot) but this album is  the most concentrated and complete effort I've heard. Really amazing. I love listening to this cd  at low volume while I'm studying...

Currently, Maybelline by Datarock. Unsure as to what to make of the album as a whole yet, it's def. got that whole 'disco-electro-punk-funk-core' thing that's so hip at the moment going on, but ehh. Think it's going to take a few more listens.

Datarock are really good as long as you don't think about them too hard. I love that CD.

Ted Leo & The Pharmacists - Little Dawn

Having owned "Tyranny of Distance" for months and loved it, but not really known/investigated anything further about the band, it came as a pleasant surprise to learn that they actually have quite a few more albums... which I am munching through with great pleasure. Quality disc, this. :)

One of my favourite covers. Really gloomy and dirge-like, perfect for the song. Not that Strawbs' version was a barrel of laughs.

Edge of Sanity - Sacrificed

Now, you see, this is why Dan Swano is an awesome fucking dude. Here he is, with his band, making a revolutionary melodeath record, and one week during the songwriting, he just spins Floodland one too many times, pootles off into his studio and makes a fucking awesome dark as hell goth rock song, and then manages to get his fucking band-mates and label to put it on a record alongside songs like Jesus Cries. Fuck.

Oooh, and now it's changed to the first melodeath song in history:

Edge of Sanity - Enigma

Yarr. It's growing on me. The second half seems more interesting than the overly clicky and beepy first half.

Currently listening: The Raconteurs cover of Gnarl's Barklay's 'Crazy'. It's well good. I was more than a bit disapointed with the Raconteurs album, but they seem funner live...
