I buy music often. I buy Vinyl because underground/D.I.Y. punk/hardcore bands still sell 7'(EP)and 12'(LP) formats. The last thing I bought was:

Boiling Over-Trash City EP
Endless Blockade-Primitive CD
Most of all I hate dancing then work,exercise,people,stupidpeople


Pilgermann

I've cut down on my music buying habits over the years due various financial priorities, but I still get things fairly regularly.  I mostly hunt for used CDs or bargain bin stuff.  I kind of miss the days of dropping nearly $50 a week at the local record store.

Within the past month or so I've gotten these:



Return of the Living Dead soundtrack
Kentucky Colonels - Appalachian Swing!
The Church - Beside Yourself
The Church - Untitled #23
Zawinul Syndicate - Black Water -- I don't care for it much but it was only 25 cents
Genesis - Three Sides Live
The Refreshments - Fizzy, Fuzzy, Big & Buzzy
Kenny Werner - Lawn Chair Society
Cream - Disraeli Gears
R.E.M. - Murmur
Steve Kilbey & Martin Kennedy - Unseen Music Unheard Words
Zachary J. Mechlem - The Haight Gang
 

Javakoala

The first albums I've bought in months:

Ladytron -- 604 and Light & Magic

Goldfrapp -- Seventh Tree

bladerunnerblues


Torgo

Today I picked up a greatest hits cd by Talk Talk.  I had forgotten how all around great this British band was.  I also ordered a copy of John Fogerty's Eye of the Zombie today as well.

Starting to realise now, that most of my favourite rock artists are Canadian. Even though, this is more commercial than her earlier work and not jazz like her later work, Lee Aaron will always be my "Metal Queen".

Torgo, Talk Talk have quickly become one of my absolute favorite bands recently. Granted, I downloaded a few of their albums, but man oh man are they INCREDIBLE! Spirit Of Eden and Laughing Stock are two of the most brilliant unclassifiable albums I've ever heard.Their record company sued them because they thought SOE wasn't "commercial" enough. The Color Of Spring is excellent as well, even though it's slightly more "pop" than the other two. Mark Hollis has such a nice distinctive voice. It's a shame they're not around anymore.  :bluesad:
Anyway, I recently ordered Amoeba's - "Pivot" off eBay. Excellent band who were also influenced by Talk Talk.

I'd highly recommend Mark Hollis's solo effort from 98' also.

Funny, a little while ago, I started revisiting a lot of Canadian bands of the 80s, and I was amazed at just how many of the songs on the radio were homegrown back then. Canada put out a lot of great talent in the 80s. Actually, from the late 60s to the mid-90s, there was a lot of good stuff. I don't know what the hell happened that we started getting Nickelback and Simple Plan and crap like that.

Anyway, speaking of Canadian rock bands of the 80s, the last album I bought was The Best of Prism, which I found for $10 on the weekend. I already have some of their music, but this was a nice collection, and I needed to grab something to play in the car.

This just arrived in the mail yesterday, in time for me to take it along on some business today that required an hour's drive each way. Been looking for this soundtrackon CD off and on for years, and must have played "Over Me" at least a dozen times today. I passed a lot of heavy construction equipment on the highway, and it kind of made me chuckle. No urge to drive into any bulldozers though. :teddyr:
