Faith No More
nine inch nails (pretty hate machine)
Nice. PHM is one of my all-time favorite albums, I've listened to it so many countless times. It's the album that got me into NIN back when I was about 14. "With Teeth" (the newest NIN) actually reminds me of PHM more than anything else Trent has done. I've seen them live a couple of times, too...seeing them in an indoor venue with great seats on the Fragility 2.0 tour back in 2000 (the tour they made the "And All That Could Have Been" DVDs from) was probably the greatest concert experience of my life.
Faith No More is cool too, I also dig the other Mike Patton projects, like Fantomas and Tomahawk. I've seen both of those bands live too, and Patton puts on a HELL of a show.
As far as what I'm listening to lately...I listen to the radio a little, often times I'll listen to Bob and Tom in the morning (on their "home station", Q95 in Indy). I also have my iPod wired up to my car stereo, and I listen to some Podcasts that I subscribe to. I've also been listening to the new Tenacious D album (the soundtrack to the movie "The Pick of Destiny").
My old standby, though, is listening to The Beatles. I've got somewhere between 2-300 Beatles bootlegs, TONS of live stuff, outtakes, alternate takes, etc...if something the fab four did was recorded on tape, I've probably got it somewhere. I'm actually gearing up to start recording my own "Bootleg Beatles" podcast, lots of hand-picked cool bootleg tracks with a bit of commentary behind them, facts and interesting trivia about the songs, the individual tracks, and the band in general. I plan on recording the first episode right after Christmas when I have about 10 days off from work.
OK enough off-topic rambling...I'm out. Cool topic.
