I always seem to make these threads on boards cause I like to see what people listen to in their daily lives. Currently I've been listening to:
Pearl Jam - Self Titled (2006): This is a pretty good CD and I'm gearing up to see them this weekend. I'm always a stickler about knowing the lyrics to songs before I go see people in concert. Its good to hear Eddie singing similar to how he did on Yield. Riot Act was good, but his voice was a little reserved.
Kenna - New Sacred Cow (2002 i think o.O): Fun mix of Electronica and 80s synth (think Depeche Mode). This cd was delayed like 2 years before it came out, but it was worth the wait for me. Its really quite fun and I can actually listen to it at the store =3.
Tool - 10,000 Days (2006): I wouldn't be called toolbert if it wasn't for Tool. Its an awesome CD and I haven't grown tired of it yet. If you're a big fan of them, its worth checking out. Its tons better than the random stuff on most "rock" radio.
Coheed and Cambria - Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV Volume One: From Fear Through The Eyes Of Madness (2005): The longest title for a CD that I've run across, I find myself always coming back to this CD and I never know why. I like it, but it's totally off the mark from my normal tastes. I think I like the geekiness of it. Each of their CDs (if you didn't know this already) is basically a story that lead singer Claudio Sanchez is writing in song form (and now a comic has been made as well). Its quite a cool story and I do like the music a bit.
So, what are you guys listening to?

Like Toobert, I'm digging the new Pearl Jam (and also getting ready to see them, but I gotta wait 'til next weekend), and the new Tool as well. Great music on both of those discs.
Generally speaking I listen to whatever catches my fancy at any given time, which means I have all sorts of weirdness on my iPod. :D Right now I've been listening to the new Shawn Mullins, some classic Rush, bit o' AC/DC and some Ozzy (just went to Ozzfest!), indulging my inner girly-girl with the occasional Carly Simon track...and I do believe that on the last board I confessed to a love of Monkees tunes. :D Basically what I listen to depends on my mood...right now, for instance, my radio here at work is playing "Werewolves of London," an all-time favorite of mine, and I'm contemplating the damage to my credibility that would result from my dancing on the desk.... :roll:

Bob Dylan.
That really about covers it. :D I listen to usually 4 or 5 hours of Bob Dylan every day, and have been since last October when I got my first Dylan CD :lol:

I am currently addicted to The Libertines and Baby Shambles.
Today I should be going out to Best Buy to pick up the new 18 Visions album as well as the new Lostprophets album. So I'll probably be listening to those here soon as well. :D

A little bit of everything...lots of metal, a very little rap, some Christian and some country, thanks to the ex. I even have some...Bugarian music, I think it is, too. I'll listen to anything once as long as it isn't forced on me, along with being told "Just listen to it, you'll LOVE it!!" :rant: and then blare it for hours on end...but that's another rant.

When I'm on my computer, I keep my iTunes in constant rotation. I've got a few playlists for when I'm in the mood for something specific, but usually, I like to be surprised.
Currently: The Fortress of Solitude ~ John Williams from Superman: The Movie. (I love movie scores.)

I actually got my copy from Best Buy. And I believe the song you were thinking of is "Animal I have Become" And your welcome. :D

Lonely Lullaby by Ivana Santilli. Actually I'm listening to the whole album (Brown). Hip-hop influenced Jazz. Kinda trippy!

Right now I'm listening to "Do you feel like we do" by Peter Frampton. A nice little fourteen minute song that I can listen to over and over again.

Comedy, lots and lots of comedy. My current favorite (I dunno where I got it) is a Richard Jeni show. Very funny man. Other than that I listen to a lot of jazz (Jaco Pastorius is the man!), Rock, Country (Montgomery Gentry, Garth Brooks, Toby Keith, etc.), and classical.
I really don't stick to one genre specifically though, just whatever I feel like listening to at the time.

Eclipse's piano tribute to Evanescence. Fairly decent, but not as good as Amy Lee, and to my kitty purring.

I decided to listen to all my Manson albums today. Not in order, either.

I've been listening to Rise Against too.
I'll give a complete list:
The Strokes
Arctic Monkeys
Baby Shambles
The Libertines
The Walkmen
Lostprophets
Nonpoint
Thrice
Apartment 26
Led Zeppelin
Interpol
Franz Ferdinand
Rolling Blackouts
The Sun
There's more... but really, I couldn't name them off the top of my head...
*EDIT* I just realized I contradicted myself. Oh well, you're already over it, I assume.

Pink Floyd - Shine on You Crazy Diamond
Before that was Comfortably Numb, also by Pink Floyd
I'm sure there will be more Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin or AC/DC etc later on. I have been on a Pink Floyd kick lately because well, they are my favorite band probably, and since Syd Barrett's passing, I wanted to listen to some of their more obscure stuff (not necessarily the songs listed above) to get a feel for his genius.

Also doing the iTunes shuffle, so right now I am listening to "Logic" by Belle Morte.

Right now I'm listening to Boards of Canada's Campfire Headphase. Very slow techno and man is it awesome.

Lately I find I'm gravitating towards mellow and chill music.
Like Thievery Corporation (Richest Man in Babylon etc), Frou Frou, She's the Sun by Scooter (a surprisingly relaxing song!), Cool down the place by Mattafix and so on.
She's the Sun was rather surprising considering that Scooter is a house "band". Very Depeche Mode feel with didge's in the background. *listens to it again*

I've been putting tons of stuff on my iPod, most recently some Tori Amos. I hate to buy her stuff on iTunes, though, since my brother has every album she ever made and then some (apparently he's somewhat known among Tori fan circles...). 'Cept he lives over 1/2 hour away and I don't get up there much...I should ask him to bring me some next time he comes for dinner...
Not listening to anything at this very moment, but in my car I have been listening to Queen: Greatest Hits Platinum Collection.

Right ths moment, I'm out here on the front porch ejoying some Elton John
Something About The Way You Look Tonight
I'll be glad when I get my laptop back from the shop (I'm on a loaner and it's a widescreen and too big for my small lap) so I don't have much music on this one.
*sigh*
