I suppose our different tastes are acting up again no, this one's provable I can't think of a more precious or over-hyped knitting circle of sonic nothingness than Sigur Ros (and pardon the appearance of boasting, but my musical CV is tens of thousands of albums strong) I know artless noodling when I hear it we're talking about a band that's lauded for creating nothing but wet paper mittens - put any kind of serious thought or interest into what your listening to, the whole thing falls apart in a wadded mess, leaving you cold and a little pissed (those paper mittens weren't worth a damn) I gave those fellas more chances than that other [almost as] over-hyped 'angry Pink Floyd for Twilight fans' band (Porcupine Tree) I came away with nothing but nonplussed astonishment at how naive and easily manipulated this generations' 'undergound ears' seem to be but hey, don't take my word for it... you think I'm off base at all, just take a peek at their website Edited September 28, 2011 by ghostworks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At points, it does seem that they're just fooling around and happen to catch on with each other. I recommended them mostly because it definitely puts me into focus mode, since it gets very spacey (if it can be called that) and free. I have to admit, your description of Porcupine Tree made me chuckle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty serious about music, and I have pretty serious opinions (most people who love music do) but I've never taken that to mean we can't have some fun kicking around the bands that make us cringe and personally, I've found no better education for developing a 'tough skin' against negative opinions, derisive commentary and downright personal attacks than to listen to and publicly proclaim your love for Rush for almost 30 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielmclark Posted September 29, 2011 Author Share Posted September 29, 2011 Okay, someone around here recommended Hoedown, by ELP, and it just came up in my playlist. All I can think about is "Beef! It's what's for dinner!". I've got to remove it from the list - great tune and all, but very, very distracting. Plus, it makes me hungry lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sco703 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 I would check out Scale the Summit and Animals as Leaders. Both cool new bands. Scale the Summit would probably be better for working. Animals as Leaders is just a cool instrumental band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
