This is what I've been listening to in recent weeks:
Jeff Buckley - Grace

I recently discovered this beauty of an album, due to a book i've been reading by Neil Peart where he discusses his love for it, and the tragic story that was Buckley's short-lived career. Hallelujah, from that album, brings a tear to my eye everytime I hear it.


Other than that album, some of the other things i've been stuck on recently would be -

Immortal - Sons Of Northern Darkness & Damned In Black

After being skeptical about the genre of Black Metal for awhile, a friend pretty much forced me to check these guys on me. This was 6 months ago, and they have become top 10 favorites. These two albums are masterpieces that any metal fan in particular should at hear at least once.

Opeth - Damnation

Long time favorites, this album is great at night when you just need to relax. It's amazing that a band who's considered Death Metal could make such beautiful music as this.

A few others would be Jethro Tull - Aqualung, Rammstein - Reise Reise, and HORSE The Band - R. Borlax.

I recently bought the Dark Earth Ep, there a band around my area. There've only been in the scene for a little while but have had some great feedback from there fans and other band's. I've know the guitarist and drummer for a while and are great guy and great at what they do. There a black metal band with an old school feel to there music.

If u are interested in them and live in Australia go to there website and download there demo's.

Porcupine Tree - In Absentia

This band and their music RULES ! What an awesome album !

Definitely! If you dig In Absentia, you need to check out Blackfield. It's a sideproject that Steve Wilson from PT did with this Israeli dude. It's fucking phenomenal! Trust.

I can second that....Blackfield is damn good stuff. Also check out another sideproject of Steven Wilson called no-man. That´s music for the really quiet days. Their latest Album called "Together we´re stranger" is excellent in my opinion.

What's your favorite PT album? I think mine is Lightbulb Sun.

Recently I've been listening to:

Pain Of Salvation - One Hour By The Concrete Lake
Alter Bridge - REALLY GOOD!
Porcupine Tree - In Absentia (It RO!)

And then I eventually revert back to Opeth's Damnation or Blackwater Park. Or Dev.

Hey, lol. Quit picking on me. I RO! and shouldn't be picked on, roflmao

Now that I'm re-thinking about it, was it even me who said that? lol Too many shoutbox conversations. Things are getting hazy.

LOL! Good try.

It's just one of those catch phrases now that everytime I see or hear the name "Porcupine Tree" I have to yell it out. But I don't think anyone knows what it means except for you and I. They just think I'm retarded.

I think I have to pick Stupid Dream...Even less and Don´t hate me are simply briliant songs that I´ve listened to very very very often. But I love everything that I heard from them so far and Wilson is a damn genius anyways.
