Everyone goes through those periods where they listen to one band or artist way more than others, right?
Mine is DIIV at the moment, love them

Music What artist/band are you currently addicted to?

- Start date
I've been listening to Daft Punk'- Discovery a lot lately... And Cave In - Antenna... Trying to recapture my youth or something.

Going to see them at the end of the month.
At the same time I'm playing a lot Beach Fossils and Real Estate.
Nice
I'd really like to see them live sometime.Beach Fossils are great too. Been trying to play some of their sings on guitar. Like Real Estate too, great picks!
Am I right in thinking you're based on the South Coast?Nice

They're are playing Brighton on the 29th of this month.
Only recently got into Beach Fossils and Real Estate after finally opening a Spotify account, loads of good stuff out there if your prepared to go and find it.
I’m enjoying Pantha Du Prince at the minute
I am yeah. The Bristol one is actually closer to me, but both would be a bit of a hassle to get to though with the date that it's on. Will probably just wait and hope they play in Southampton the next time they come over here!
Yeah I've found so much stuff on Spotify. I have a playlist I'm always updating with this kind of stuff on you (or anyone else) might like
Properly addicted to Van Morrison's early stuff at the moment.
Astral Weeks could be my favourite album ever

Thanks for sharing.
At a quick glance there's bands I know and like ie Craft Spells, Daysleepers, Wild Nothing and a few others but will have a good nosey later.
I put off getting Spotify as I believed at least with iTunes what you bought was yours. My 2 daughter's bought me £30 worth of Spotify vouchers (as well as tickets to see The Chameleons this coming Saturday which is going to be massive for me) for christmas and with the 3 month free trail, I've got it free for 6 months and it's been a total revelation.
Not over keen on Still Corners, musically very good but I do cringe at some of the lyrics tbh.

More than bands, I focus on loose songs that I find in shazam, looking for some more songs from that same band/ style. Right now I am with The who, New order(Blue monday is my song of the week) and a Spanish singer named Rosendo
Wouldn't say I was addicted but I've been listening to a lot of Camel over the past month.
Manics.
Weezer.
Cure.
Never changes but now I have an amazing keyboard and guitar setup I'm learning how to play along for a change.

Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane over the sea
any mention of them I stumble upon always makes me want to go back to this record for a couple of weeks.
This time it was this

Been a big fan for years of 'Within Temptation' a Dutch rock group & a group called 'Dare' which is fronted by ex Thin Lizzy keyboard player Darren Wharton. Hardly a day goes by where I've not listened to tracks from either group.
I think the most interesting thing about Dare is that Professor Brian Cox used to be the keyboard player.
Became increasingly obsessed with Mark Kozelek's music throughout 2019, even the shite stuff.
Been digging into a lot of bebop recently. Tina Brooks and Sonny Clark are my go to artists in that space right now.
2 months ago it was Afrobeats.. Naira Marley was my guy then.

Michael Kiwanuka. Incredible artist for chilling out to
Might as well post this here - John Frusciante first footage back with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

I've been listening to lots of Elvis Costello over the past 6 months, especially his late 70's stuff. This Year's Model is a massively addictive album.
Probably Marc Anthony's, "3.0", album, but him in general.
In particular, this song has a lot of energy; lots of percussion, organ and especially horns, which is a huge feature of latin music in general.

It's a 10/10 album, I think. For what it is it's near perfect.
Big Thief.
Yeah that's true. A man of many talents.
Leonard Cohen, and have been for nearly a year I guess. I like most of his albums, and there's enough variety there for a few different moods. Listened to 5 of his albums in a row yesterday morning.
the new Squarepusher LP has had me revisiting his enormous back catalogue. It's a bit patchy, but when it's good, it's dead good. New LP is pretty smart too. Love that acid bass.
I'm always obsessed with King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard these days.
Aside from that I've played Destroyer's "Kaputt" and every time I've been playing records recently. It might be the best album of the last decade. Just amazing.

Been on a big Katatonia binge recently. The album I’ve played the most in the past 12 months though has probably been Oncle Jazz by Men I Trust. Played that thing to death.
It's like the most zesty, punky, excitable take on 60s pop imaginable. And every element, from lyrics to melodies to that brilliant backing band is just right. I mean, how fecking great is Lipstick Vogue alone? It's packed with great tunes.
I’ve definitely been branching out lately. Some British rap, that really doesn’t make it stateside, and is a welcome change of pace. And I recently discovered Michael Kiwanuka, who has an incredible voice.
Going to see them soon, bought tickets.
But I am going through some great guilty pleasures at the moment like Ash and Pixies. Plus I just can't get enough of this album..
Been a fan for more than 25 years now but God damn this is a great album.
The difference The Attractions make is huge. My Aim Is True sounds so limp in comparison.
Nirvana then Ned's Atomic Dustbin followed by Half Man Half Biscuit and strangely on to Jimi Hendrix.
Good man.
Ever since YouTube recommended this video called Origins of Symmetry while tripping, I’ve been getting into Muse.
Moneybagg Yo’s new album been on rotation a fair bit for me. Always have time for Kevin Gates too.
Check out Black Pumas - you can thank me later!
I am not a fan of Bee Gees. Actually I've always thought they were a bit crap. But lately I've been listening a lot to their early stuff from the 60es before the falsetto and disco took over and it's really like a completely different band. Still a bit cheesy, but they could really sing. Some of the best vocals I've heard for sure.
