-15
last May I started doing this with last.fm and it worked out nicely. I take my top 15 artists played on my profile (excluding classical) and I deselect them for my iPod. That way I only am listening to artists that are new or just not heard in a long. I do this to stop having a habit of listening and overlistening to the same music over and over again.
here are the 15 artists I am not going to listen to for the next month (July 2 to August 1)
Radiohead
Wilco
Eels
Sonic Youth
Pixies
Spoon
Nine Inch Nails
Tom Waits
Atmosphere
Modest Mouse
The Decemberists
Neko Case
Led Zeppelin
Beck
The Twilight Singers
This way I can see some of my older albums and other music get listened to for awhile.

4.11.2010
A to Z of Music I Love: R is for RADIOHEAD
Theres is no competition here. This is my favorite band EVER. I feel in love with them gradually over time but when Kid A came out, they solidified as my top band. I can't explain really why I love them. I heard "creep" and thought this guy has a whiney voice but i don't mind the music.
I guess hearing The Bends changed much of that and then came the monster that is OK Computer.
Here are my favorite songs by Radiohead
Lucky (my all time favorite song)
Talk Show Host
Fake Plastic Trees
15 Step
Paranoid Android (i was at this show)
high and dry
Idioteque
There are my favorites, enjoy.

A to Z of Music I Love: P is for Pixies and Peaches
Pixies: I discovered via WTUL and Fight Club. I now love them and totally get where Nirvana was coming from.
Peaches is, well, crazy good. She plays with boundries and taste. It works for me.
So here is both of them in two seperate videos.

A to Z of Music I Love: O is for Okkervil River
This is a tough letter because there aren't many O bands I love. I used to love The Offspring (along with Live, first cds I ever bought). I enjoyed the Old 97's. Of Montreal is fun.
So I choose a new enjoyment. Maybe a band i like or am getting into. I didn't like them the first time I heard them but overtime they have grown on me.
So here it is.

A to Z of Music I Love: N is for Nine Inch Nails.
I could write about Nirvana but there is one bad that really marks a trail right along my musical journey.
When I started 7th grade I was listening to Top 40 and oldies. I didn’t have anything that really existed in my world. Modern rock stations never stayed around long enough back home. Mostly country and classic rock and top 40 bullshit. Shortly before their demise the local college rock station (which is now boring jazz) played a hard rock hour late one night. They played Caroline Spine, Radiohead (wait for the R entry), some nondiscript college rock, then they played ministry and then this:
WISH
Mentally my mind started opening up and things changed. (the song was edited for radio.) Then things started progressing as more and more music became known to me and then this happened. Their greatest album and most famous song.
CLOSER
I then went and found their first album on tape, yes tape. The first two albums and an EP helped get through high school. Always there when i was upset, angry or lonely. Weird how one band can be there. While Radiohead is my all time favorite band, Nine Inch Nails is number two for a reason. They were the opposite to Radiohead. My yin and yang. My mental guidelines and aids.
Off the tape, I fell in love with this song. Not a great video but I still love the song.
It got better Live too
Then came one of my favorite movies LOST HIGHWAY. I still love it and still love this song.
SO throughout high school they were there and then came college and the release of The Fragile. The album was depressing and affirming. My tastes in music generally broadened but some how i always came back to them. I went through some bad places in college and the music was there. I never got to see NIN live. I made quite a few good friends through our shared love of NIN (holla peaches and karen!) but always it was the concert I never got to go to. Always played live when i was with family or at college but at the opposite side of the continent. I saw Trent a few times in new orleans off and on. Ran into him at a bar in the quarter. Another time he was going to a party after the one i went to let out of an upstairs club. I don't see him as a god of icon but as a man who expressed the emotions so many of have.
Star*uckers Inc
I guess the NIN quiet period that started post this album also equalled my movement to more indie rock, weirder music, and americana. I am not sure why but I started exploring other things than what i had found. Like always when I needed the music, it was there.
Another great track that helped with college (one of the few)
I then ended up waiting like so many till much later for something else. SO i could keep writing about how much NIN means to me. I also wonder how to explain the emotional connection that this music has brought me.
I was so excited to see them live for the first time at Voodoofest. I bought tickets made plans then two months before, Hurricane Katrina. My sadness and my pain from all that got fed into the album "With Teeth" and this video and song became how i felt (and sometimes still do).
"There is no you, there is one me."
I ended up seeing them three times in the last 5 years. The opening acts of Saul Williams, Peaches, TV on the Radio and Bauhaus were all firsts for me. I saw HEALTH too but I don't really like them that much. The prolific last few years of Trent Reznor has produced a wealth of good music and interesting adoption of current internet technology. Only time will tell what happens next.
From this comes a good concept album in "Year Zero" and a great single.
Then Came Ghosts and The Slip
Echoplex
Ghosts 31
The music has been there for 20 years of my life. The band is no more. That means Trent has other things planned and I will look forward too. I need to go and get the legal torrents they put up and make DVDs of the great music and shows that have been made.
Thank you Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails). My life would be pretty boring and I would still be listening to Amy Grant and Michael W. SMith with out you. Thank you.

A to Z of Music I Love: M is for Modest Mouse
Not much here other than Mozart. Enjoy a few videos of one of the weirdest and funniest bands.
worse than you ever know
worse than you ever know
A to Z of Music I Love: L is for Live and Led Zeppelin
Another dual post for two reasons
Live was the first CD i ever bought and one of the first bands I ever got excited about it. Too bad they didn't stay as good after 2002 but oh well I will always enjoy Throwing Copper
Led Zeppelin, great hard rock band ever. They defined a genre, my radio in HS and the only good FM station back home. I have over listened to them because of that but here is my favorite song by them.

A to Z of Music I Love: K is for Kravitz
Again another hard letter. I don't like his most recent song but this song kicks ass and so do the first 3 or 4 albums.
enjoy some Lenny Kravitz
enjoy some Lenny Kravitz
A to Z of Music I Love: J is for Janis Joplin
There is no arguement here. Best female pop/rock singer of all time. Sorry Aertha but this woman out did you every step of the way.
Get it while you can...
Get it while you can...
A to Z of Music I Love: I is for Iron & Wine
ok simply said, i like the lyrics and i like the group. though I don't own many I bands so it kind of defaults to this group.
A to Z of Music I Love: H is for Hendrix
I could put The Hold Steady or PJ Harvey here but really are they better than THE GREATEST GUITARIST EVER? I mean really?
Let the music speak here:

A to Z of Music I Love: G is for Gorillaz
I love the music is all over the place. I love the tunes and mix of world, pop, hip hop, and funk in the music. The future is coming on...
A to Z of Music I Love: F is for Fleet Foxes
I could have chosen Fever Ray but in post 2 of 3 for today I am going with one of my new favorites.
Mykonos
Another good one: White Winter Hymnal

A to Z of Music I Love: E is for The Eels
Some letters are easier than others. E is the Eels. I love music, the lyrics and the stories. So enjoy two of my favorite videos they made. Also check out the songs "Going Fetal" and "Flyswatter"
Last Stop This Town
Novocaine For The Soul

A to Z of Music I Love: D is for The Decemberists
This letter was easier to choose. While I like The Doors they aren't the top of the pile here. One of the weirdest bands I know is, The Decemberists. I love the pop mixed with sea shanties and topped off with just the right amount of references to culture and literature. They are pretty brilliant in my opinion.
It was tough to pick one song but I picked the first one I heard and lead me down the path of owning everything they have made. It is a great antiwar protest song while still being smart and cleaver.
Bonus post: Another good song

A to Z of Music I Love: C is for Clash & Case
Another double post. Some letters are harder than others.
First is Neko Case, my newest favorite artist. She is amazing live and amazing on album. Just enjoy.
Second is The Clash. One of the all time great bands. Most melodic punk bands ever and some of the best messages in there songs.

A to Z of Music I Love: B is for Bjork & Bowie
This is one of the hardest posts I think I'll have to do. I fell in love with Bjork because of her name. I saw it and it was like mine so i said I must here. I heard this song when it came out and I was hooked. I still have a love hate relationship with her because it was so weird and often off putting. Hers is an awesome video.
I think I forced myself to like David Bowie. I heard songs on the radio and liked them but it took years for me to figure out he's a chameleon and changes styles often. So many great albums but I will take one that means something to me. I get it and I feel it.
I love these songs and the last one brings two things i love into one.
Bjork
Bowie & Reznor

A to Z of Music I Love: A is for Atmosphere
I am sort of stealing from Walt and Nessa but hey why not? I've had the urge to write more lately why not slack off and do this.
Atmosphere is my favorite hip-hop group. I find slug amazing and the lyrics often great. I saw him live and it was amazing. I love all his albums and his sad clown series of rough cuts and live tracks.
So here is the video of a good song.
