My brother told me to listen to this. He did the right thing.

Faith and the Muse - Annwyn, Beneath the Waves

A little different then theyre first one, this is from what I'm hearing the last cd before they really change their style and get all aggro. This one's even different, a lot less of the medieval sound, a bit more folky paganistic type stuff. A lot more metal too, kinda weird.

Still like Elyria the best

Not bad. I have to admit that seeing and hearing PF perform The Wall in the LA Sports Arena was the most serious WTF of a show I've ever experienced.

Got a Spotify invite and promptly went on a Nick Cave bender. Now playing "No More Shall We Part."

Between that and Hellblazer, I'm in a bit of a strange mood. Haven't conjured any demons or committed any murders yet, though…

In that cave, eh… case, you might want to avoid "Murder Ballads"?

Sorry, too late for that.

I´d recommend this Nick Cave for that .

I just stumbled across the most astonishing… incredible… hypnotizing… the most… uh. Well, yes, I know I'm late when it comes to remarkable I-net stuff, but I just can't stop listening to Russian singer Eduard Hil… MUST FIND THE OFF SWITCH… OH MY OH MY OH MY… TROLLOLO…

This isn't just something one can simply listen to… it's… I feel so different all of a sudden… I feel so… happy… spring springy… Trololololo…

Luckily I found a Trololo Sing Along

But that wasn't enough. I wanted to meet Trololomates… with whom I could trololo, yes, Trololo-in', and oooh Trololo… YAAAAYYAAAYAAYAAA and Ricehappy's trololo. There are even more on the Trololo fan page! So many people to trololo with.

O my, I feel a new way of living will spread across the planet. Let's play our Trololo king in shopping malls, traffic jams, hospitals…

O, can't you hear the Trololo Subliminal Message?

I have changed, I'm a new person. Thank you so much Jaz, my life will never be the same!

Cut Copy's first album, In Ghost Colours. Electrical pop of some kind. I recognize Daft Punk (Discovery era) and there are loads of other parts that hints of other influences. The album is quite straggling, not the least because they don't economize with effects (especially flangers and the likes). At times it straggles into quite nice territories though and at those times it's quite nice, danceable electro pop. At other times the arrangements are all over the place though, and at yet others their music does *gasp* nothing at all!

Jaz, why do you do this to us?!? First it's Daler, and now this?!? Shame on you.

Anything to make the aliens happy. The Aliens: The Happy Song

Wow, pibbur, this was great! I just love happy songs.
Which makes me think of…
The Paprika Parade!

I prefer the full theme though (from the credits). Oh bother, now I can't stop listening again …

And The End of Angelic Layer - Farewell to the Stary Sky. Particularly happy! happy! if you have seen the series *).

*) if not … lots of spoilers in there

I came up largely emptyhanded for streams of this tune. It's a real shame, because (as usual) Amazon manages to avoid all the best parts of the song with their clip. The chorus just soars, so why include it in the clip, eh? Oh well, I guess it's better than nothing.
"Can't Disappear" by Pluramon

Came across this one: Osiris: A new day (Visions from the past). The band is from Bahrain, and their music is prog rock with a touch of arabic fork music. Interesting.

EDIT: I suppose fork music might be interesting, but not as much as folk music.

I'm starting to like this Spotiwatchamacallit. Decided on a bit of a change of pace, and am now listening to Glenn Gould playing Johann Sebastian Bach. Lovely. Wish he'd stop humming, though.

Wardruna. Norwegian medieval-ish music. Relaxing and if you turn it loud you can get into a trance while listening to it also awesome for using as background music while playing RPGs that don't have a good soundtrack

Oh god Jaz, that is so awful. And creepy! Makes me pine for the old days, when all we had to fear was Daler Mendhi.
