2007 Music List - What have you been listening to?
I stole this idea from the 2007 Book List thread, but I'm wondering: what music have all of you been listening to in 2007? What music has really struck a chord with you this year? I know we have a lot of music buffs here, so I'm very interested to see whats been spinning in your players this past year.
I'll be posting my list tommorow, as it's going to take me a while to formulate.
Yay! I was hoping you'd post this thread!

Been digging La Monte Young more so now than ever. And some Tom Waits (mainly Swordfishtrombones, Rain Dogs, Heartattack and Vine) and Gavin Bryers' absolutely gorgeous work Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet. And some Mark Pickerel, QOTSA, Built To Spill, and Steve Fisk's solo albums.

Some good here, like Styx (no The), Death Cab, White Stripes. And some not so good--mainly the rap and other rock. Danger Mouse tends to be pretty good, and MF Doom has some good shit, but Dangerdoom never did it for me. And the first 18 are expendable at best usually. RHCP have been tragically repetitive in their last few efforts. For what it's worth, if you like MF Doom's MMM FOOD album (which samples from all time favourite of mine Frank Zappa TWICE), you may like The Kelptones wonderful mashups.Originally Posted by Kevin

I keep coming in here to post...and then leaving again without posting - simply because my list is HUGE!!! I tried copying and pasting the band names from my itunes library, but it didn't work properly.
Suffice it to say, there are 201 bands on there. I listen to them on shuffle most of the time.
Heh. Yeah, anything I list ultimately ends up as one in a list of well over 300 artists or so (maybe closer to 500 given the records and CDs not on my iTunes).
