What are you listening to? - January 2019

[Ojai Sam]

Various Vocal Aggregations - The Music Of Eric Whitacre (2004)

With titles like "Godzilla Easts Las Vegas! (For Wind Ensemble)", if you were to guess that this is contemporary classical music, you'd be right. Interesting stuff. Axo might like it.

All Them Witches - ATW (2018)



I'm going to go out on a limb and say this may be of interest to @Old Uncle Toe. Not as extreme as the cover would lead you to believe.

Catherine Wheel - Chrome (1993)

I have to admit; I've had a love-hate relationship with this band's releases.

I have to admit; I've had a love-hate relationship with this band's releases.

I didn't enjoy them very much when I heard them over 15 years ago. I enjoyed this one more today.

Johannes Linstead ~ Sol Luna Tierra (1999)



Nice performance and sound, but the style is not for me.

 

[axolotl]

Sunshone Still ~ Dead Letters (2006)

 

[axolotl]

Dios ~ Dios (2004)



This band is not the same as the other Dios that I've listened to, which is Prog-rock from Italy, I believe. Also, not the same as Ronnie James Dio, who sued them to change their name to Dios Malos to prevent confusion.

Contains a cover version of Old Neil's "Birds."

Yo La Tengo - There's A Riot Going On (2018)

Miscellaneous Non-Aggregated Artists ~ Piano Cloud Series, Volume One (2016)




This again, b/c I purchased a copy, and it arrived in the mail.

I need to listen to that, again.

ETA: Now listening, after the selection below.

 

[axolotl]

Balanescu Quartet ~ Luminitza (1994)

 

[axolotl]

Spokane ~ Little Hours (2007)



ETA: Slowcore so slow and minimalist that it makes my teeth itch, and that's a good thing.

Brant Bjork - Mankind Woman (2018)



A heavy, retro, late 60s/early 70s sound that I dig very much.

Peter Gabriel (1977)
