The Fly
Now that it looks like the new album won't be out for quite some time, I've decided to take to heart some advice that U2MDfan gave in another forum and "branch out and listen to some other music." I mean, I find that the world seems a bit darker since the news of the album delay and I need something to fill the musical void and prepare for the day when U2 eventually hangs it up.
However, I need some help. I'm not very musically hip. Let me explain my musical tastes, maybe list and rate some of the few albums I do own and you all can make some suggestions as to what bands/albums I should check out.
First of all, let me just say that U2 is by far and away my favorite band. On a scale of 1 to 10 they are a 20. Nobody even comes close. I always have a U2 album in my CD player, but every few weeks I'll put in an album by another band and I'll listen through once or twice before I put a U2 album back in. That said, here are some of albums I own and how much I like them ranked on a scale of 1 to 10:
Radiohead: The Bends = 10
Radiohead: OK Computer = 7
Radiohead: Kid A = 5
Radiohead: Amnesiac = 4
Coldplay: Parachutes = 9
Coldplay: Rush of Blood = 10
DMB: Under The Table = 8
DMB: Crash = 6
DMB: Crowded Streets = 8
DMB: Everyday = 5
DMB: Busted Stuff = 7
Jack Johnson: Brushfire Fairytales = 9
Jack Johnson: On and On = 9
And that's pretty much it. Do you get a sense of my musical tastes? There must be some other good bands/albums out there. Help me out please! (But please don't suggest REM)
