No, you don't, sorry.

[Geti]

@life: fuck yeah relient k.

Death Cab - Plans, Narrow Stairs, Transatlanticism, they're all really good.
Led Zeppelin - II & III are mah favs
The Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Callifornication is still awesome.
Arctic Monkeys - Whatever People Say I am, That's What I'm Not is definitely worth a listen every few months or so.
Bloc Party - Silent Alarm followed by A Weekend in the City. They're both good haters go hate etc.
Muse - Absolution and Black Holes and Revelations. Also their new one wasn't bad, but they really are best live.
A Sound Mind - Harmonia. Kickass prog metal/rock/whatever with pianos and cool vocals. Bought the album off a band member on the street, paid for his lunch, heh. apparently they're doing really well now.
Pink Floyd - The Wall, cause I grew up with it. A lot of their other stuff is still awesome but this one's been burned into my history.

gah i want to chuck in modest mouse and pavement and rush and like >9k emo things but pleh nothing really jumps out :/
I've mostly been listening to compilation CDs recently actually. This is all memory, don't have a media library on this laptop, so I feel like I'm missing a lot of stuff...

Damn, I'm mainstream...

heh, at least you've got sublime in there.

Idea for new thread, we come up with an eclecticism quotient, which gives a numerical value for how eclectic your taste in music is, and then see who is the most eclectic, and therefore best person on the forums.

If you use last.fm then there are a couple of ways of seeing how eclectic your music taste is. I can't find any straight away but I know they exist.

I was going to say that music isn't a contest but then I got 98/100 on the eclectic meter. http://anthony.liekens.net/pub/scripts/ ... r=Tanner47

I got 95 so there must be something wrong.

[kamikaze3000]

Oh god. I only got 86. I'm nowhere near as awesome as you guys.

97/100! http://anthony.liekens.net/pub/scripts/ ... lappyMcGee

That point must lie entirely in your listens to Seperation Sunday.

I want to disagree with someone about something, but I'm really just posting so that Snowflake Areola shows up one more time on the board index.

[unoriginal name]

Only 96/100, and 827/1000.

[kamikaze3000]

Only 96/100, and 827/1000.

Oh wow. 597 on the other one. That's not good.

I got 96 and 700. ("People with scores over 700 have bragging rights.") :[
Can I do it for just what I've listened to this year?

[Vyacheslav]

86 and 662

There doesn't seem to be a way to restrict the time period. I was also mentioning how unfortunate that is.

That's always the case. My music taste has changed so much over the last 2 years, and if I didn't count everything before 2009 then I'm sure my scores would be much higher

[otters]

Office - Mecca
Coldplay - Viva La Vida
Ratatat - 9 Beats + LP3
Snow Patrol - A Hundred Million Suns
Between the Buried and Me - Colors + The Great Misdirect
Iron Maiden - The Number of the Beast
Avenged Sevenfold - City of Evil

I have such a non-eclectic taste in music.

[kamikaze3000]

Avenged Sevenfold - City of Evil

Yes!

Snow Patrol - A Hundred Million Suns

I find that Final Straw is a much superior album.

I'm interested as to whether you were referring to The Green Album or The Blue Album in your mentioning of =w=. Since you mentioned The Red Album already and Raditude being your other choice. Most of the time I would default to Blue, but you are way to eclectic for me.

[sidke]

i am p narrow-minded when it comes to music. i very rarely leave my comfort zone, so here are my ten:

M-Project - MAKINA PROGRESSION
USAO - Kick's For Liberation
DJ TECHNORCH - BIBLE03 -STEREO MURDER-
Groovetune - Reflection of Systems
HARDCORE TANO*C - DiGiTAL GENERATiON EP
Monster X - Satan Iz Love
Traffic Jammies - Girl Friend
Yousuke (mixed, SHARPNELSOUND tracks) - YONDERDOME
DJ Depath + M-Pro - Land Of Passion
goreshit - tomboyish love for daughter

Hmmm. I have a habit of not listening to music in album form, and I rarely purchase whole albums. With the exception of...

Spoon (While I love every single album, this is what I would number them if I *had* to choose):
1) Transference
2) Kill the Moonlight
3) Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga
4) A Series of Sneaks
5) Gimme Fiction

As one reviewer noted: A bad Spoon album is still a fucking Spoon album. I'm downloading Girls Can Tell right now, and I have yet to give Telephono / Soft Effects a listen.
