Wu Lyf - Go tell Fire To The Mountain

 

Harlem - Hippies

 

Wugazi - 13 Chambers (an awesome mash up of Wu Tang tracks and Fugazi's The Argument)

Posted

AC/DC are back on the playlist, although Bon Scott's getting more of a nod than Brian Johnson at the minute.

 

Musical comfort food.

Action Bronson - Bon Appetit....*****! - mixtape from new-ish Queens MC who really shone on the recent Wu Tang "Legendary Weapons" album. He is a big white fella who works as a chef in the real world...so his rhymes are full of food references and metaphors. He also sounds a bit like Ghostface and Kool G Rap, which is ace. His album proper is super too, called "Dr Lecter". Well worth checking out.

 

Ferrari Boyz - mindless rap fun from Wacka Flocka Flame and Gucci Mane, Lil Wayne involved as exec producer, some typically ri-donk-ulous beats from Lex Luger

 

Hudson Mohawke - Satin Panthers - more dubsteppy breaks from up and coming Glaswegian craftsman. Would love to hear someone rap over some of his beats.

 

Ghostpoet - Peanut Butter Blues & Melancholy Jam - trippy, dubstep enthused, almost Gil Scott Heron-y stuff, best listened to late at night

XFM, and it is so much better, and relaxing than watching the crap on the idiot box. I 100% prefer to listen to music than have the TV on, and if the TV is on and I am on my own, the music channels go on. Music all the way for me!!

 

Sorry went off on one there!

 

The specials - Ghost Town!!

"David Comes to Life" by "F*cked Up".

 

Concept album. Three guitars. Growling lead singer who apparently likes to self-harm on stage.

 

Takes about six listens to click, but is awesome when it does (if you like your rock music).

Listening to a lot of Gary Moore stuff at the moment, both the 90s bluesy stuff and the 80s hard rock/metal. Whatever genre the man was a guitar god.

Scroobius Pip - Distraction Pieces

 

Bit hit-and-miss, but only listened to it a few times. Might take a few more listens to properly click as an album.

 

Top picks: Introdiction, Broken Promise, Let 'Em Come

I'm also listening to Grouplove's new album Never Trust A Happy Song.

 

It's pretty good, very chirpy stuff with good energy. Not the deepest of albums, but it's probably a good album to put on when you wake up in the morning.

Today's mission in the car. Get back from the gym before the guitar solo in Freebird finished. We failed.

 

The version I've got doesn't even conclude with a big rock ending. It just fades out.

 

Makes me wonder whether they're still playing the solo in some studio somewhere.

 

Has to be in the top 10 longest guitar solos.
