What are you listening to? [general music thread]

What did you think of the single? Doesn't hit for me like some of the old stuff, but musically it's still incredible.

The first listen it was okay, every subsequent listen has been:

HAPPY TOOL DAY!

These days, it's pretty much all FFL podcasts.

ludovico einaudi.

Elizabeth Cook, "Welder"

Warren Zevon.

HAPPY TOOL DAY!

What are your thoughts on the album? The more I listen the more I love it.

Aside from Tool, I've been listening to Vince Gill's new album Okie and it is also excellent.

Amazing. Listened start to finish several times. I'm getting tickets for their upcoming tour tomorrow.

Shit. They're in Cincinnati in November. Saw them live in 2006/7 for 10,000 Days and it was incredible. Will likely try to get tickets to this show if they are reasonably priced.

The new Highly Suspect and Tool albums have been amazing. Wish I could go to a show for both but probably won't be able to. Also just been spending a lot of the last few months listening to fantasy football podcasts.

I really love Upperdrugs. I bought four tickets to each of the HS shows in Flint and Columbus, but only to resell. I can't go to either. 😩😩😭😭 Columbus is especially painful because as they're playing, I'll be like 5 minutes down the street from the venue at a wedding.

Got a pair for Tool at the Barclays. What a bitch of a process. Fuck Ticketmaster and fuck scalpers.

The wife and I have been listening to fo/mo/deep's "The Groovy Goodness" CD in the car for the past month.  Gets better every time we hear it.  About ready to get their new release "Syzygy".

Forgot to mention. Tool was on Tuesday. My mind was blown. I'd go again if I could.

Invincible, highlight of the set for me.

ludovico einaudi.

I'm a big fan of his.  Probably my favorite present day composer.  I've been enjoying the Seven Days Walking albums, but haven't listened to them all.  Divenire is my favorite of his releases.  

I heard Elton John's "Empty Garden (Hey, Hey Johnny)" today for the first time in maybe 20 years.  I'd forgotten what an amazing song it is.  It's a tribute to John Lennon and probably the most moving tribute song I've ever heard.  Amazing lyrics and music.  Give it a listen sometime.
