Whatever happened to Rico, Dolman and Cadet Paris? I'm sooo out of the loop.

I am content with the sounds of the natural world as the wind gently blows my daughters wind chimes in conjunction with the baby doves cooing nested in my sky dish over the genteel drone of the dishwasher.

You can achieve the same effect by tuning your kitchen radio to a different station than the one in your living room and wandering in-between rooms
not enough radios

Listening to Chelsea Wolfe. It's nice that she's grown into a sort of gothic torch singer from her slightly more raucous roots.

I like both, and they're new to me. Cheers, Cosh.

Nice. Get some Gesaffelstein as you watch the sun go down behind the Ochils.

Funny you should say that. I usually listen to this on my way up the A9 to work. http://youtu.be/9q20zSEYj2U
It puts me in the right frame of mind for the rest of the day. :lol:

Babymetal - who I dismissed a couple of years ago as an idol knockoff of The Brilliant Green, but I can admit when I'm wrong, as Babymetal are a complete hoot - moreso once you twig that they aren't joking.  Not even a little.
Though still married as a stage act to nightmarish mindworms like Doki Doki Morning and Ii Ne, they've also added some fantastic thrash licks to the likes of Death and Megitsune that to my mind pushes the band ahead of many "proper" metal outfits in terms of high-energy pomp, while Onedari Daisakusen is elevated from turgid rap-metal shite (it starts out sounding like Max Cavalera-era Sepultura and then turns right into Limp Bizkit - surely the very definition of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory) to something vaguely sublime by the knowledge that it's sung by 13 year old girls as a day job between home schooling lessons, and yet it is identical to a Wes Borland-era Limp Bizkit track right down to mic checks and spoken verses about rap music only being about money, though naturally I imagine most people have their own thoughts on whether the world needs more Limp Bizkit cuts.  My favorite track is probably Death, as the multilingual play on "death"/"desu" is just the kind of self-aggrandising sneer that's sadly missed from modern metal outside parody acts like Steel Panther, but the structure of the track also mimics perfectly the bit near the end of Black Sabbath's Black Sabbath (from the album Black Sabbath) where the church bells end and guitars thunder and suddenly metal was born, but I suspect those who came up with metal just as it was going mainstream in the early 2000s will get more from it than crusty oldsters like me, as the influences of Slipknot, Bizkit, Sepultura, Dragonforce, Sabbath etc aren't hard to discern.

Ahead of the curve as always, Pro. This is getting played on UK radio:

Listening to Robert Plant drifting up from Glastonbury Abbey Extravaganza with a tall glass o' cider. Smashing.
