What EOTR music are you listening to today?

[bennyhana22]

Another feeble attempt to generate traffic as I'm so excited about EOTR (but more so about going on holiday in 6 days so you'll not have to suffer my ramblings for a couple of weeks after that...)

Who are you listening to today?

Your (my) starter for ten...

On a roll now...

BLITZEN TRAPPER - FURR

Can't get my head around this completely. I love some of it and then feel guilty at liking other bits that are nothing short of 70's glam. These guys listen to far too much Bowie, I reckon!

The Horrors keep finding their way back to "play"

Been Listening to The Low Anthem a lot

And Malcolm Middleton, I love the new album, got it on vinyl recently and it sparkles

Tallest Man on Earth and Joe Gideon and the Shark are next.

I can't stop listening to the Leisure Society album recently and I've been giving the new Dodos album a few spins, although that one hasn't quite sunk in yet.

[Elfy]

Nowt today - can't listen at work - but had Scott Matthews in the car on the way to work - he'd be good for a future EOTR

Past few days - The Duke and the King, and Blitzen Trapper - which I'm absolutely loving

[Elfy]

What do you think of Dirty Projectors? I am pretty sure I think they're ace (I love Bitte Orca) and am trying not to be influenced by the negative press they get a lot of the time proclaiming them as pseudo-kooky New York poseurs!

Vetiver are WELL worth a listen.

Herman Dune are high up my list too..

[Elfy]

I'm with you...new album is even better than "Passing Stranger"...a very underrated artist...brilliant for EOTR...let's put him on our 2010 wishlist!

[bennyhana22]

Morning all

So far today:

SHEARWATER - ROOK

EFTERKLANG - PARADES

Smashing!

[airboy paul]

good choice with those two!

I'm holding off on my investigating until the full line-up and stage times are announced (I forget how far advance that is of the festival). I then go through and listen to all of the bands I haven't heard before, and give them ratings and set up a plan of action of which stages to rush to, and which bands i can happily ignore. Tis great fun!

So, I am tempted to do some early work with some of the bands now, but I'll only forget what some of them sound like (despite ratings) and will have to go through them again come stage times time.
