We have this on another forum and I thought it might fun instead of just listing what you are listening to.
The premise is that you give a wee review of an album you listened to today.
Either recommend it or slack it off, which ever you prefer. You can get a picture of the cover, if you want, from allmusic.com.
I might as well start:

Merzbow - 1930(though my cd has a different cover)
This is only my second noise album, so I admit I don't have that many intelligent things to say about this one.
It works brilliantly as a audio assault and even at a low volume it gives you a mild drowsy headache.
But in my opinion it doesn't really function on any other level.
And I am kind of disappointed that the allusions the title gives doesn't seem to connect with the music itself.
But I will give it a few more spins before I write it off. I would only recommend this to the adventurous or to convinced noisefanatics :)

Tristeza, A Colores
I'm writing a full review of this for a small paper, but rather than include that I'll just write it up quicklike. Basically, it's like a more focused and less jazzy Tortoise. It's all instrumental and very well performed, but for post-rock it's not very progressive or experimental. It's still a very solid album, and a fun listen, but not really the exciting new ground for post-rock.

I don't know why, but I was in a real Mars Volta mood today, I'm listening to this album for the third time in about 8 hours.
How do you define this album, this band? Post-hardcore experimental progressive rock-metal? Or mere post-rock wank-off? Opinion is divided in the middle, you either love TMV or you dismiss them as music for stuck-up twats. This album, I'd say, has deep meanings that I really can't be arsed to decipher and I just like this album for the depth and wide ranging talent of the music, the ambient noises and the infusion of genres, languages and lives that this album brings about.

I am fucking pissed off today. Only one course of action with my current resources: pot of coffee, a few cigarettes and the fucking Terminator Lestat. Fucking aggressive industrial black metal from the genius mind of Anorexia Nervosa's Hreidmarr. I have not a single bad word for this album. The soundtrack to kicking fucking black metal poser scene kids heads in with steel toe-capped boots and then fucking a whore to death.

The cover says it all. Creepy and enigmatic but fab noise-rock.
All the songs on EVOL are great in their own right, even the near-pop of Bubblegum, but Expressway to Yr. Skull alone makes the cd worth it.
It starts out with the murderous line "We're gonna kill all the california girls", sung in an odd almost thoughtful kind of way, deadpan you could say. For me it's a monolith of a song, and would have been a perfect closer. That is, if they hadn't included the tongue-in-cheek Bubblegum as an suitably odd off-beat ending. Even though they are improvising, they are never meandering, always moving forward with a certain sense of purpose, albeit an abstract kind of purpose.
I have only heard three Sonic Youth albums, this one, Murray Street and Sonic Nurse but I am very much enthralled.
I love their quirky sense of humour and their obssessions with pop culture. Not to mention that they are guitar-explorers and connoiseurs, always pushing the envelope.
Basically this is just a great cd.

This has been spinning consistently in my player for about two months on and off. Why? Because it is Skinny Puppy at their absolute best. Just prior to the amazing trilogy of Rabies, Too Dark Park, and Last Rights, you get something that is pretty unheard of for an electronic album that is almost twenty years old. It doesn't sound dated. Even classics from bands like NIN (see Pretty Hate Machine) sound thin and tinny by comparison, whereas this disc is an assault of layers; sound samples of radio broadcasts and horror movies, noise, guitars, distortions, and Ogre screaming, kicking and whispering, often all at the same time. Standouts are hard to choose, but I'd have to pick VX Gas Attack, Who's Laughing Now?, Human Disease, the great and listenable Testure, and of course, Fritter(Stella's Home), which is perhaps the scariest thing you'll ever hear on headphones while walking streets at night.

For a long time I resigned Swervedriver to the category of shoegazer bands like Chapterhouse and Pale Saints, bands that were good but not the best. Now, long after the conclusion of my shoegazer obsession I've found myself really getting into this record. The album rocks in that sort of way that makes it perfect for driving. The lyrics go with the flow of the songs both in their tone and in their frequent referencing of transport as subject matter.

Since then I've pretty much been listening to every Atheist album. I really, really, really like Atheist.

I went on a music buying spree recently and this is one of the victims. I haven't listened to it much, but it's been going in the background a lot.
I'm afraid my current musical addiction is;

Also, RefD, we don't like having year old threads bumped. Please don't do this again.

The Go-Betweens - 16 Lovers' Lane
and it's fucking excellent.
Hell yes it is. But it's a Go-Betweens album, so that shouldn't surprise.
I don't really understand how this thread is different from the "What I'm listening to right now" thread.

All I want in life's a little bit of love to take the pain away.
How freaking awesome is that song!!!? I love it so much.
Anyway, I just got some two new Nadja cds, both somewhat limited edition. One's a collaboration with Atavist, which sounds like usual Nadja but (even more) stretched out and with a bit more doom infused. The other's with Fear Falls Burning, and is a total noise freakout thing like Skullflower or something. I can upload if anyone wants.

This one is about albums and has pictures.
The other one is about songs and has words.

The glitchy electro pop brilliance that is Khonnor's "Handwriting." Type Records is very quickly becoming one of the best labels putting out music right now. It's up there with Temporary Residence and Constellation, often surpassing the output of those giants and often doing it with beautiful music but also with beautiful packaging and art and all sorts of limited releases and special series. I love 'em. This terrific album is just one example of why.

I really really wanted to buy that months ago. I was broke that week so I didn't and then never saw it again. I'm gonna have to keep an eye out for it again.

There you go. Not a bad price either. It's a very good album.
I'm also listening to this:
(http://www.boomkat.com/media/stock_images/TYPE018_Cover.jpg)
It's 'The Dead Sea' by Xela. It's an incredibly good instrumental/psych/drone/ambient concept album inspired some old horror films and their soundtracks. The album, despite having no vocals of any kind, is purportedly about an ocean liner attacked by Zombies. And it's really really good.

Found this earlier today at a yard-sale.. weirdly enough. Completely didn't expect it. At any rate, it's nice to have a bunch of really good songs all on one album. Usually I get annoyed at these types of things, but SFA.. to me.. have always had a good bit of filler, so when I really actively want to listen, this is a nice album. At any rate, it was $3. That much awesome is so worth $3.
