#9 albums you listen to

[soapkaars]

I was tagged by @faustiandevil for this one. 9 albums I've been listening to recently. I have a terribly random music taste, so it's a bit of a weird eclectic mix, but this seems like a good cross section of all the ones I've been listening to. I think there's something of a common element... I think? I suppose I like originality, and I definitely like to listen to music that's fast and angry/energetic.

In no particular order:

Demon Days, by Gorillaz

Barbarella, the movie soundtrack, by Bob Crew and The Glitterhouse

American Idiot, by Green Day

Addicted to Bad Ideas: Peter Lorre's 20th Century, by the World Inferno Friendship Society (this seems like such an obvious choice if you know me lol)

Azel, by Bombino

Danger, by the Lijabu Sisters

Right Thoughts Right Words Right Action, by Franz Ferdinand

Ultraviolence, by Lana del Rey (thanks @faustiandevil for helping me pass my gay civics exam)

Mokum, by Amsterdam Klezmer Band

For the ones who want to join in, but no pressure if you don't, I'm tagging @annaglover , @juicedsumo , @peterlorres21stcentury , @peterlorrefanpage (I forgot what your personal blog was, sorry!) @rustbeltjessie , @stillwaitin76

I was tagged by @soapkaars and glad of it!

9 albums I've been listening to recently. I'll admit up front it's largely more certain songs from said albums than entire albums. :)

In order of the random order I piled these in:

Hunting High and Low, by a-ha. I hone in on: "The Blue Sky," "Living a Boy's Adventure Tale," "The Sun Always Shines on TV," and "Take On Me." Morten Harket and his ethereal voice. ❤️

Rock a Little, by Stevie Nicks. The whole damn album. "Some Become Strangers" is my current earworm. "Part of me used to love you / part of me still does."

Demos, Vol 1, by Oracle Sisters. I listen to "Asc. Scorpio" just about every day.

Radio Retaliation, by Thievery Corporation. "The Forgotten People" is a bountiful get-up-off-your-arse gorgeous mix of sounds.

Don't Say No, by Billy Squier. Lotta songs here, but "In the Dark" is my especial favorite. I mean, my god: "You never listen to the voices inside / They fill your ears as you run to a place to hide / You're never sure if the illusion is real / You pinch yourself but the memories are all you feel..."

Let The Festivities Begin! by Los Bitchos. "Pista (Fresh Start)" is another get the hell up and dance song. Instrumental psychedelic sunshine cumbia.

The World Within, by Moderator (Vinyl Edition 2017). For this beauty: Words Remain.

I, Robot, by The Alan Parsons Project. Concept album. "I Wouldn't Want to Be Like You" and "Breakdown" are on a continual rotation. The existential despair at the end of the latter is superb.

Prelude to Ecstasy, by The Last Dinner Party. Because "Nothing Matters" gets in my head and the video is sublime.

Tagging @peterlorrelove, @peter-lorre-stan, @faith-alhazred @aaronshattuck, no pressure, absolutely none!

@peterlorrefanpage enlisted me for '9 albums you listen to' and it's kinda challenging, as i am not actually album person, more 'listen this dozen song for the next two years' person 😂 but i will try my best.

1. 'Addicted to Bad Ideas: Peter Lorre's Twentieth Century' by The World/Inferno Friendship Society.

Must have of every Peter Lorre fan, i guess. Speaks to my soul.

2. 'Devil's Dozen' by Fiddler's Green. As well as 'Heyday' and '25 Barney Roses'.

Music, that charges me with energy. 'Perfect Gang' is the song that i use to explain to my players which vibe there would be in Dead But games (Dead But is my own PbtA TRPG about living dead who leave their graves to go to the party or club).

3. 'Wolfrider's Reflection' by Julia Ecklar

As well as a few records of Julia, that wasn't included to that album. I grew up on ElfQuest comics and i feel deeply bounded to this universe. 'Going Back' gives me goosebumps every single time.

4. 'Pirate for the Rum' by Stormfrun. I found this album a few years ago, during one of the most stressful periods in my work life, and it really was like that 'and the new man was chosen to lead our raging crew - but this man is a woman, i'm telling you it's true'. Yeah, it's me. I am the woman.

5. 'Father of Invention' by Professor Elemental. It's time for a confession - i really like rap. I love rhythm, i love when a performer not just sings, but talks to you, buuuut. I am absolutely not into american 'money, bitches, drugs' rap, so when i encountered chap-hop, where on the place where you'd expect 'f*** off, b****' goes 'I am terribly sorry for the inconvenience, sir' - it was immediately sold to me.

6. 'The Vampyre at the Harpsichord' by Verne Langdon. Oh my, this guy is brilliant. His music has the right vibe of a vintage horror movie. Also I use one of his tracks as my basic rington.

7. 'Ooky Spooky' by Aurelio Volraire. Another guy with a great sense of humor, this particular song is hilarious.

8. 'Boo York', Monster High motion picture soundtrack. Another fandom i am into, catchy energetic songs that speak to me a lot.

9. 'Komik' by Komik Mashrabov. That's very local thing. When i was working in a hotel there was a courier guy, tajik, very modest and polite. But after I told him i quit in two weeks, he got much more friendly, and it turned out he not just a courier, he is also a rapper and stand-up comedian. His 'modest guy' social mask was broken, he was always a fountain of improvisation, jokes and awkward flirt. I still excited how dramatically his personality changed in such short time. So, he gave me couple of his tracks, and still i listen to them time by time, trying to improve my tajik listening (still can't get anything but couple of words, honestly). Also he has really good voice and know how to use it.

Well, that's all, folks 😁

I have only couple of mutuals here, and two of them have already joined the flashmob, so i can tag only @ilovemesomevincentprice - absolutely no pressure, though 🌿

The chokehold Unreal Unearth has on me is insaneee. Like I have Andrew Hozier Byrne disease and I fear it’s terminal

[da-janela-lateral]

Unstoppable force meets immovable object, more known as "absurdly long and complex music liker" meets "won't listen to any music".

✨Stuck at the airport tag game frenzy brought to you by spirit airlines✨

I already got here an extra hour early and now my flight is delayed an hour so I've got some time to kill lol

Game #1: your color + your bias

I was tagged by @jiminsproof and @blueside-hobi to play this. Thanks guys, your posts looked beautiful ❤️

Ummm I know these colors don't match at all but in my defense I was identified as beige. You really can't expect me to have an eye for color or layout or anything really 🤷 also that is not even beige? Wtf is analogue? I hate this

Game #2: on repeat

I was tagged by @blueside-hobi to play this 💕

Sorry for the repeats I didn't feel like typing everything out lol

Game #3: Receiptify

Tagged by @blueside-hobi and @hopeinthebox to play this!

Umm I will tag @chocolatnoir @joon-rkive @cheekyquokka @courtthisdisaster @senor-hoberto if any of these games appeal to you! And anyone reading this who wants to share!

Just listened to (most of) the entirety of the Details album by Frou Frou and sjdjfhdhdjfh

Songs I like: Breathe In, Let Go, Must Be Dreaming, Psychobabble, Shh, and — most recent largest obsession out of all the songs I just listed — Flicks.

I'm so normal about it

I love the everything about it

The beginning was already intriguing right? But omg the vocals....,,, (I already really like Imogen's voice but eeeeee!!!!)

Practically the whole album's got me sittin here like 😌☺️🥰🥰

[catty-words]

[gayemoji]

the seething rage i have. im going to kill every man. ever. holy fuck.

[bmpmp3]

i dont use spotify but i did end up doing a new install of poweramp almost exactly a year ago because i switched phones so here's what's the top of the "most played" category. i wanna be involved too LOL

[lavender---sunshine]

in all seriousness i 90% sure im going to quit my job tomorrow and for a while i will have just enough money to live on and will have to spruce up my resume and job hunt and stress but MY GOD i need to do something else because this is making me suicidal

[autism-corner]

yes i will listen to the same musical for the 7th time in three days.

[museenkuss]

Maybe I’m getting old but lately most of what Lana has been putting out has been repetitive and boring in sound and at times downright embarrassing in text.

[girlivealwaysbean]

so finally i like 22 songs on ttpd

[a9saga]

tbt - wonder girls - baby don't play // yeeun is genuinely the most underrated and unacknowledged kpop songwriter of her generation
