Ahh, the best new song tonight was easy - 'The Comfort' by Moss. Just a perfect, singalong indiepop song. If you've ever sung along with The Shins, The Format, Phoenix, The Pursuit Of Happiness or Sex Clark Five, I suggest you go and buy their new album. It's ace!

The best old song was 'Sunday' by Sonic Youth. I've probably had it as a best old tune before, I've certainly played it many times DJing. The reason I keep returning to it is that it's a flawless piece of music. I'm immediately hooked by the intro guitar riff. And I remain hooked all the way through, up to and then breaking past of the cathartic noise-out at the end. Magical.
This is what I played:
Surrogate - A Constitution
Brainpower - Even Stil
The Promise Ring - Happy Hour
Samiyam - Roller Skates
Exlovers - you forget so easily
OC - Mush One

My Top 50
29 nov. 2009, 9h26m par ShatteredFlame
Well I've been on last.fm for almost 2 years now and my taste has changed dramatically over time. Looking at my top 50 overall I'm really not happy with most of the artist on their. Partly because at first when I discovered a band I loved I would scrobble the shit out of them until they reached a high status on my charts. Nowadays I can't be bothered with how much I scrobble an artist because there's always so much other music I want to check out. So here I am at 2 am listening to Tom Waits wasting the night away writing about what I think about my top 50.
= Looks great on my charts
= I like them but I'm not for 100% in having them high in my charts
= GTFO my charts.
1. Tool
Took me a while for me to love them. Then when they finally grew on me they immediately became one of my favorite bands. All their albums are great even their live album Salival is something worth checking out. And with each album better than the last I can only imagine how amazing their next album will be since 10,000 Days was so perfect.

2. The Cure
Immediately loved them when I first heard Disintegration. There early post-punk stuff is great but I think they hit they're peak with Disintegration. Weak was alright but everything after pretty much sucks. I still haven't checked out everything by them even with over 2000 scrobbles. They have so much material.

3. Opeth
First checked out Still Life. Loved it. Then Damnation. Bored me, except
Windowpane. Like Tool it took me awhile before fully appreciating them. Now they've become one of my favorite bands.

4. Pink Floyd
Yeah classic band. Darkside Of The Moon, The Wall, and Animals are all classics to me.

5. A Perfect Circle
I don't really listen to them at all anymore. At first I was just a blind Tool fan loving Maynard's voice and his lyrics, now I think most lyrics are complete bullshit and appreciate artist for their musicianship. These guys are better than your average mainstream rock bands, some nice song writing that sets them apart from simply sounding generic.
3 Libras will always be one of my favorite songs.

6. Katatonia
I'm always an "on again off again" type of relationship with these guys. First heard The Great Cold Distance, loved it at first now I can barely sit through the whole thing. There other albums are the same, except Brave Murder Day which will always be their best. Overall, they have a lot of gems spread out in their albums, the best usually being bonus tracks and CD-singles.

7. Celldweller
I used to listen to this guy all the time. Now I think he is pretty overrated. Being a part of the AMV community is really sickening because everyone considers this guy a genius, pretty much every single song is done to death. Why do people praise this guy for being a one man band? Like there isn't millions of other solo artist who also create great music. He has some great material but I wouldn't call anything he's done a masterpiece. Every song he has released lately has been solid but I really don't think he can create a great album. I'll take a great album over a great song any day.

8. Puscifer
Actually checked him out before APC or Tool. Still love this project. V is for Vagina is a great album but I do think that it is very hit and miss. The stuff he has been putting out lately especially The Humbling River have got to be the best material released on here. I'm liking this new atmospheric direction.

9. Rise Against
My favorite generic nostalgic band. I don't really listen to them at all anymore but I don't mind it when I do.

10. Metallica
Really not sure how they got this high on my charts in the first place. I think they're classic albums for the most part are very overrated. Kill 'em All and ...And Justice for All are pretty good though. When Death Magnetic first released I loved it but since then I've gotten into a lot of other superior metal bands.

11. Eminem
Yeah hes a guilty pleasure. Will always be.

12. Devin Townsend
I completely love this guys work. His insanity is of my liking. Great musicianship. Addicted has also got to be one of my favorite 09 releases.

13. Agalloch
These guys can't release a bad record. Everything they've done is great.

14. King Crimson
Masters of Prog? Yeah In the Court of the Crimson King, Larks Tongue in Aspic and Red. are all essential for every prog lover.

15. Shining
Checked these guys out when I read that fucked up description about their beliefs and live performances, I just had to hear how fucked up this was. I'm glad I did give them a listen. Besides being fucked up V: Halmstad has got to be one of the greatest pieces of music I have ever heard. Every track is mind blowing. I haven't really gave their earlier stuff much of a listen. VI: Klagopsalmer was awful though.

16. Meshuggah
Didn't really want to check them out because how stupid their band pictures look. Chaosphere made me laugh, Jens Kidman sounded like a barking dog and the music just sucked. Catch-33 was a much better experience, their music was kind of annoying but I think that's what inevitably made them great for me....for some reason, don't really know how to describe my feelings toward them. They also became the headliners of the first concert I attended :).

17. Infected Mushroom
First heard the song Artillery which was great. I didn't check out the full album until a long time after which I regret because Vicious Delicious is a damn satisfying album. I don't care about how pop it is compared to how magical their earlier albums are. Infected Popshroom > Infected Mushroom. Not too much of a fan of them, they're live performance was hands down the best I've been too. I also helped advertise for them in their fanmanager street team and won an autographed poster and CD :D.

18. Amon Amarth
Twilight of the Thunder God unleashed my hidden craving for death metal. Now I think it's a pretty boring record. Metal gets old fast man.

19. Jerry Goldsmith
Lol, short lived movie soundtrack craving.

20. Angelspit
Addicting shit. Addicting when I first heard them. Still as addicting now. Even they're new release cleared my disappointment after a few listens. 2nd album has yet to grasp me.

21. My Bloody Valentine
Loveless

22. Beastie Boys
Hell Yeah! Probably a guilty pleasure, isn't it?

23. "Weird Al" Yankovic
Another guilty pleasure, right?

24. Nine Inch Nails
I never really liked them as much as I wanted to. All these scrobbles are a failed attempt for the most part. The Downward Spiral and The Fragile have some good songs but other than that I have never been able to see the magic.

25. Linkin Park
Angry generic emo shit.

26. Joy Division
A truly great band. Ian Curtis wrote some wonderful songs. Lyrics are all fantastic. Simple but hold so much meaning.

27. Ayreon
Gets old after while.

28. Mastodon
They're pretty good. Crack The Skye is such an overrated album it's ridiculous. Leviathan is great.

29. Cynic
Metal Gods!

30. Tom Waits
Absolute genius!

31. maudlin of the Well
Fucking insane band. Toby Driver is a genius.

32. Mindless Self Indulgence
Yeah I considered myself daring for listening to a band like this. They still have a few classics but I don't really listen to them anymore.

33. Modest Mouse
Have some great songs but as albums go they tend to fade with time.

34. John Carpenter
Only around Halloween

35. Scarling.
They are great...I haven't listened to them in a long time now

36. Guns N' Roses
Meh.

37. Shpongle
Should be as high as Infected Mushroom. Great music.

38. Porcupine Tree
I haven't really listened to many albums by them. I love Deadwing and Lightbulb Sun but most of the other stuff I've checked out is pretty boring.

39. Astronautalis
Amazing artist.
Barrel Jumping (A Man Of Letters), The Waterfall and
The Story of My Life all have got to be some of the greatest songs I've heard.

40. Thousand Foot Krutch
Generic Christian Rock

41. System of a Down
Such a faux pas

42. Vader
They won't be relevant in a couple of months

43. Have a Nice Life
Great album. Great bootleg demo album but recently I'm not feeling what I felt when I first listened months ago.

44. ASHES dIVIDE
Wow something completely shot out of my life.

45. Gojira
Metal that doesn't get boring. Great drumming also.

46. J.Viewz
Local New York band. Chill out album. So great.

47. Unwound
Leaves Turn Inside You is so great but like Have a Nice Life I think I'm growing out of this depressing shit.

48. Dane Cook
Why did I have him to begin with? =(

49. Bill Conti
Short lived Rocky soundtrack addiction. Still great but not something meant for heavy listening.

50. Black Light Burns
I kind of forced myself to like them. They suck. Only New Hunger, Cruel Melody and Lucretia My Reflection are good.

Final Verdict: Only 23 out of 50 artist I am satisfied with =( -
yes, this was the best way to spend my last night at home.

04. What's your favorite lyric by The Magnetic Fields?

dancing around my room to "Graceland" while packing for college.
09. Is there a member of the same age as you in Belle and Sebastian?
hahaha, no. they are all much older.
10. When did you first get into The Shins?
2003, right after Chutes Too Narrow was released. I heard "
New Slang" on the college radio station and it was downhill from there.
11. Who likes The Smiths along with you?
many, many people. on my last.fm friends list, primarily Kathrin.
12. Which song did you first hear from of Montreal?
"
So Begins Our Alabee", on a Polyvinyl sampler.

I believe it was "
Upon This Tidal Wave of Young Blood", after some blog described it as "David Byrne fronting The Cure".
14. Which song do you not like by The Only Ones?
there are actually quite a few, shamefully, but my least favorite is probably "Deadly Nightshade".
15. Why do you like Morrissey?
what a question! his stunning voice (even at such an age), his splendid pop sensibilities, his terrific way around a witty, erudite lyric...
16. Where did you first hear Voxtrot?
oh, wow, I don't actually know. I think I heard "Mothers, Sisters, Daughters, and Wives" on a blog somewhere right after it came out, but I didn't really start to love them until I heard "
The Start of Something".
17. How long were The Jesus and Mary Chain a band before you liked them?
haha. they were a band for sixteen years and weren't a band for three before I liked them.
18. Does Matthew Sweet have a song that gives you a bad memory?
well, yes. most of his songs are irrevocably linked to certain memories for me, but "
Someone to Pull the Trigger" and "
Life Without You" are the worst.
19. When did you get into The Cure?
the winter of sixth grade, when my brother burned a copy of Staring at the Sea: The Singles for me.
20. How long have you been into The Jesus and Mary Chain?
seven years.
21. If Jens Lekman had a concert 300 miles away, would you drive there to see them?

22. How many The Replacements albums do you own?
christ. nine, not counting bootlegs and unreleased compilations.
23. Do Vampire Weekend have a song that makes you cry?
hahaha, definitely not.
24. Do The Wedding Present have a song that makes you happy?
of course! especially "
This Boy Can Wait".
25. Do Wilco have a song that makes you smile?
yes indeed. "Nothing'severgonnastandinmyway (Again)" is a guaranteed smile-maker.
26. What's the last song you've listened to of Guided by Voices?
"
Twilight Campfighter".
27. Is there a song by Elvis Costello and the Attractions that you've listened to more than 30 times?
"(The Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes", though my statistics don't show it... that was mostly in seventh grade.
28. What is a song from Joanna Newsom that you've only listened to once?
"
Three Little Babes". NEVER AGAIN.
29. Is there a song you are sick of hearing by Robyn Hitchcock and The Egyptians?
I am not really a fan of "
The Fly".
30. What song got you into Echo and the Bunnymen?
"Bring on the Dancing Horses", once again via the local college station.
31. What is your favorite single by Bright Eyes?
single? probably "If The Brakeman Turns My Way".
32. If The Weakerthans hated you, what would you do?
I would be really upset, probably. and regret not seeing them when I could have in September, before I learned of this sad development.
33. What would you say if one of the members from R.E.M. asked you out?
um, accept, obviously!! I don't care that all of them are either over fifty or almost there (yes, Michael, this means you). we would be the May/December romance for the ages.
34. Would you care if Editors had a boyfriend/girlfriend?
of course. I demand that Tom Smith remain perpetually single.
35. Who has the best voice in The Posies?
I prefer Jon Auer's songs.
36. Do you think Elvis Costello and the Attractions are good looking?
haha, I was actually just talking about this today. yes.
37. How many times have you listened to your favorite song by Arcade Fire?
I have apparently only listened to "Intervention" 11 times. this might be wrong.
38. How many CDs do you own of Sparks?
I actually only own Kimono My House, but my mother has most everything else on vinyl.
39. Is there a song from Radiohead that makes you mad?
I don't think so.
40. Which member from Yo La Tengo do you want to see go solo?
I actually really like Dump, a.k.a. James McNew's side project. but I wouldn't want Ira and Georgia to split up.
41. What does your favorite song from The Velvet Underground remind you of?
"
Sweet Jane" ... actually, reminds me of standing on the corner with a suitcase in my hand. hahaha. presumably because whenever I find myself in that situation, I start singing that song.
42. Did you hate Hüsker Dü at first?
no, I just thought they were really noisy. and Grant Hart was super cute. whatever, I was a twelve-year-old with priorities.
43. Does your best friend also listen to The Hold Steady?

both my parents love them, actually.

I guess so. I like it better than their previous name, "The Brokedown".
48. Is there someone in Paul Westerberg that you want to go out with?
this question is adorable. yes, I want to go out with the teenager in Paul Westerberg who wore his heart on his sleeve, rode his bike everywhere, and kissed girls under bridges on autumn nights, as described in "First Glimmer".
49. Do you know anyone that hates Shearwater?
I don't believe so.
50. Have you ever danced to a song from Sigur Rós?
it's probably happened. -
