I think it's probably either Ghana or West Texas for me. I used to not like Coroner's Gambit but I've been really loving it recently.

Ryn Weaver's newer music video is so strange, but I will admit that it's much better than the previous. I would do a analysis of it and see what I can infer from each scene but, as of right now, I'm far too lazy to do that.

Only the Finns can understand the music I love the most, which is a tad bit mad. We're talking YUP, Jarkko Martikainen, Absoluuttinen Nollapiste, Plutonium 74 and Tuomas Henrikin Jeesuksen Kristuksen Bändi. The lyrics of those bands' songs are balls to the walls -crazy and I love it. I love how crazy they are.

Public Enemy, a legendary rap group from the 80s/90s.
Wasn't expecting anything spectacular given that they are way "passed their prime" so to speak, but damn...it was pretty bad.

The Fez soundtrack is quite enjoyable, though one song sounds a lot like another one of his. But the Fez soundtrack came first.

The soundtrack is a bit...old school soundtrack ish, but it doesn't sound like mindless old school 8-bit soundtrack worship, which is good because a lot of those sound WAY too meh to me because sounding directly like the old stuff is kinda boring. At least do something interesting...

It makes it the oldest album in my collection. Sure, Hurriganes - Roadrunner was released one year earlier but it's on CD and CDs didn't exist back in '74 so there's that.

Coming back to this, I had completely forgotten my copy of Close to the Edge, it's original from 1972! :p

i quit cigarettes recently and it's hard for me to enjoy music the way i used to. i find myself getting impatient whenever im trying to listen to anything for a lengthened amount of time which leaves me with hours of my day after work where i don't know what to do with myself

Original pressing of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band here, so 1967. Unfortunately it's in the inferior stereo mix, but still cool.

I like the title though. It's a Yiddish proverb: .דער מענטש טראַכט און גאָט לאַכט - Der mentsh trakht un Got lakht (Man plans and God laughs).

Yeah, so do I. The title actually got me kind of psyched for the album. :p

My lack of music listening in the last month is terrible.

However, I listened to a bunch while I was in Sacramento that didn't get counted, because my laptops keyboard committed suicide so I used my grandparents, which didn't have Scrobbling on it. I'm now working on Scrobbling all of those.
