Poll: What are you listening to right now?

[Marie]

I'm playing a Black Sabbath cd... Paranoid.

Listening to the song "War Pigs" right now.

[Kurmudgeon]

Nothing except the birds outside, and the wind in the trees.

Oh, and my computer fan spinning.

[Marie]

The jungle birds? :)

[Marie]

Now "Jungle Love" is in my head... *L*

*sings* My jungle love, yeah. I think I wanna know ya.
Jungle love. Girl, I'd love to show ya.

[Thalia]

My fish tank, the cars outside, the humming of my computer, and George W. Bush.

[spud]

The news on tv. There's a screech owl calling outside. The clock ticking.

[Max Power]

The Teaches of Peaches! Helllllll yeah!

[stonecrest]

ben harper covering sexual healing. pure bliss :)

[ObsidianZebra]

I've been listening to various songs in my MP3 collection, most recently it's been Tori Amos, and as I'm typing this post it's "Bliss"... father, I killed my monkey, I let it out to taste the sweet of spring .. uhm, yeah, I don't get it either.

I finally got my FGTH CD back since I lend it to my brother four or five years ago.
Actually that’s not true, he got me a new one because he lost mine.

And he also returned my “ABBA the total collection box”.

So that’s what I’m listening now, when I use my stereo.
I know it’s not the most perfect music but it brings back pieces of my “youth”.

[Kurmudgeon]

*L* Okay, okay, 1vegan! We heard you the first time.

I've just put "Fossil Fuel" on, the XTC singles double CD.

[Robert]

Jimi Hendrix - The Ultimate Experience (a greatest hits sort of compilation). Specially, Hey Joe just finished and The Wind Cries Mary just started.

I stayed up all night, so I thought I was seeing double twice :D

[1vegan]

argh....

It's that damn gateway timeout.

Every day around nine in the morning there is a gateway timeout and than I assume the post did not get to VB, so I post again.
Sometimes the post is processed even with the gateway timeout.

Sorry for that.

Succccking on my titties like you wanted me, calling me all the time?

I saw Peaches last year at Reading festival. She was... err... interesting :D My friend kinda got my into Electroclash.

Have you heard anything by Ladytron, or Miss Kittin, Max?

At the moment, I'm listening to Sketches For My Sweetheart, The Drunk by Jeff Buckley. I simply love it.

[Marie]

There is one group you'll never catch me listening to...



The Pixies.

*cough*

Your taste in music is as great as your singing voice.. and you know what I think of that. *L*

>:)

[FemmeDemonica]

Cursive's The Ugly Organ

[The_Gazumper]

Aaahhh... The Pixies. One of the finest groups ever... *sigh*

I almost got the chance of meeting Kim Deal last year, with the rest of The Breeders, at the signing tent at Reading festival. But she cancelled, right at the last minute :(

I've only heard one song by Cursive. 'The Great Decay', I believe it's called...

Heck yeah!!! My mixtape buddy (should have arrived by now!) got a liberal dose of the two! I like Miss Kittin's stuff with Felix Da Housecat (just a couple of songs) better than her more extensive work with The Hacker, but still good stuff.

As for Ladytron, I've been in love with that band for a couple of years now, ever since I saw the video for "Playgirl" on M2. Their newest CD is hot. They were in town recently, which is rare, but I chose to go to the Raveonettes & Interpol show the night before, instead. Oh, the decisions we make!

Who else to you like in the electro sound? It's not really big over here, but that's fine by me.

Right now I'm listening to the NCAA tourney and Air's Moon Safari.

[The_Gazumper]

'Playgirl' is such a great song! Though, 'Movies' has to be my all time favourite. Or perhaps 'Another Breakfast With You'... I saw Ladytron last year too (actually, straight before Peaches), and they raaaawked!

The only other electro-stuff I really like is Fischerspooner, and they get kinda boring after a while. 'Invisible' is a classic song, mind...

Does Air count as electro? I absolutely adore Moon Safari :) Their soundtrack to The Virgin Suicides is also pretty darn awesome.

I get it, but only because I make up my own meanings to songs. It's about a bad relationship with a father. Part of you but not enough for you... Yeah...maybe I'm crazy...^_^;

It's really hard to pick a fave with Ladytron - Commodore Rock and 604 were good albums but kinda raw compared to Light & Magic. I think "I'm With the Pilots" and "Jet Age" are my faves from the older stuff and "Evil" and "The Reason Why" are tops from L&M.

I've heard things about Fischerspooner - I'll have to check them out. I'd say Air is in an electronic category, but certainly different than Peaches, et al. I think Moon Safari defined it's own electro-psychadelic subgenre while 10,000 Hz Legend is a bit more "traditional" electronic - "Electronic Performers" is insane. That's my take on it...
