What Are You Listening To? Part 2

[RushFox]

Megadeth- Psychotron (Countdown To Extinction)

Part bionic...and Organic... Call Him Psycotron!


In other news, I'm listening to this band introduced to me a LONG time ago (or not) called Threshold, and their new album "Dead Reckoning" sounds pretty good. I was wondering if anybody here knew the band and could tell me a good album to listen to from this group. Thanks!

I'm going to try to get the new Porcupine Tree LP today. Damn excited.

[bill]

And voila, I purchased it.

Porcupine Tree - Fear of a Blank Planet

And, as a complete blind purchase, I also got...
Nine Inch Nails - Year Zero

(Never heard NIN before)[/quote]

[edit] What the christ, my Nine Inch Nails CD just changed color. [/edit]

Yeah. It's heat-sensitive. And once it goes white, it'll have all sorts of writing on it that you can attempt to work out what the codes mean.

Some of them send you to particular websites, where you can find other interesting things. Some of them, nobody has decoded yet.


Oh, and Trent Resnor has released -all- the tracks on Year Zero in mp3 format on the net. -Before- it went on sale. Take that, RIAA. I think he's got more sales out of it than otherwise. It's quite an interesting sales pitch thingy, all up. I do recommend people look it up, the sales people are using their heads for this one....

I've only got "Psychedelicatessen" and "Critical Mass", but I do like those albums a lot.  I really should get more of their stuff.  I think my favourites are probably "Devoted" and "Into The Light" on the former.

"Into The Light" has this wonderful bit at the end where they reprise one of the verses in the background but it's all broken up with static like they've got a bad cable.  It's something I've been meaning to do myself, but I'd love to know how they did it.  It must have been flown in from a test mix via DAT or something because it's too early for that sort of editing with protools.

My work Windows desktop is a scan of the cover from "Critical Mass".

'Into The Light' - Psychedelicatessen - Threshold

Speaking of music desktops, mine's been the cover art to Fear of a Blank Planet for about a month.


Nine Inch Nails - Year Zero - The Beginning of the End

[RushFox]

Rush- Cygnus X-1 Book II: Hemispheres (Hemispheres)

Epic. 


Anyways, I was listening to tracks off of Threshold's first album, Wounded Land, and that's pretty good too, especially Consume To Live, which is surprisingly relevant even today. I'll probably head into town later and see what they have in stock. My dad seems to like them too, so maybe he can help me out.

BTW, Tapewolf, I think it was you that introduced to this band in the first place, now that I think on it.
