@nessisonett I had a feeling you'd like her, I've seen some of your other posts and thought we have quite similar tastes. Titanic Rising has quickly become one of my favourite albums.

Do you know Hannah Peel? Her album, Mary Casio: Journey to Cassiopeia is (literally) out of this world. I had the pleasure of seeing her perform it live with a 20 piece colliery brass band and some particularly strong psychadelics a couple of years ago; I'm still getting over it now!

@TheBrandedSwordsman definitely an interesting fusion...lots going on in there. The main riff and guitar work in general reminds me a lot of Tom Morello. Pretty cool, man.

@LordSteev I’ve yet to listen to the latest Tool album after waiting so long for it and that makes me sad. Also, whether intended or not, I found some humour in the statement, “I’ve been stuck on A Perfect Circle...”

@Kidfried Yeah, Front Row Seat To Earth got me into her as well. Amazing album. I'd love to see her live; Father John Misty I have a love/hate thing with- depends on my mood, I guess.

In fact, I'd love to see anyone live right now! Last gig was Aldous Harding and who knows what the next one will be

@Jimmer-jammer Hey buddy!

The new Tool album is good, it's what you'd expect from them, long, hypnotic songs, great vocals, etc. You'd like it if you're a certified tool fan, for sure! It's in my cars disc player currently, excellent road trip music. If you like Tools singer, and want something much more mellow/psychedelic, Eat the Elephant is Perfect Circle's latest, and it's one I like at home, almost meditative. It came out in 2018, and was their first release in 18 years. Neither they nor Tool seem to be especially prolific!

I assure you, I meant nothing untoward with 'stuck on a perfect circle', lol! Have a good one my friend.

@Kidfried I’m actually off to see Michael Kiwanuka in 2 days, if all goes according to plan. I was supposed to see him last year but it’s been postponed to the 26th March. Who knows what it’ll be like.

@LordSteev I haven’t listened to either of their new albums then. They’re not prolific but my goodness they’re unique. I could go for some of that this weekend. Hope all is well for ya!

@Kidfried I'd be up for going to the Flaming Lips COVID concert where everyone has their own bubble, it looks suitably crazy

@Jimmer-jammer

They're both good albums, especially by modern standards. I freely admit that most of my favorite music comes from the 70's and 80's. There was a lot of guitar player talk going on above, so just for the heck of it, here are some of my favorites in no particular order:

Ritchie Blackmore
Michael Schenker
Yngwie Malmsteen
Vivian Campbell
Jimi Hendrix
Joe Satrioni
Dave Murray
Tony Iommi

And after starting this, I realize it's pointless. I could rattle off 30 more at least that have had some impact on me. At the risk of sounding like the old fogey I am, I just don't think they play them like they used to.

Linkin Park does anyone know this band?

Things aren't the way they were before...
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not like you knew me back then,
but it all comes back to you in the end

I tried so hard, and got so far..
but in the end, it doesn't really matter
I had to fall, to lose it all...
and in the end, it doesn't even matter

@TheBrandedSwordsman I listened to Parannoul’s To See The Next Part of the Dream, a Korean shoegaze album. I actually had it in my backlog but it totally blew up in popularity between me hearing about it and actually listening to it. It’s a fantastic album though, I’d definitely recommend it.

@nessisonett What constitutes the 'Korean shoegaze' genre? Seems like it might be limited in scope.

@LordSteev I hope you don't mind me jumping in, but how do you rate Vinnie Moore as a guitar player?

@TheBrandedSwordsman

I love him, man! He reminds me of what would happen if Joe Satrioni mated with Randy Rhoads! I think I said it earlier, but there are just so many fantastic guitarists I love out there. I forgot (shamefully) to even mention Randy in my previous post and today it feels like an unforgivable omission!

@LordSteev Well it’s shoegaze made by Koreans I guess? And it’s in Korean 😂

@Thrillho I want to type lol, but I'm uneducated enough in K Pop to not really know if you're joking or not!

@nessisonett Forgive me, but even 'shoegaze' throws me. I've been lost ever since they started breaking metal into nu, death, prog, etc.
