I always found Magazine a better band than the Buzzcocks, frontman Howard Devoto used to be in the Buzzcocks, so that is the link between the two.

ZZ Top - Tres Hombres, Fandango!, Antenna, Mescalero

thrash mania (selected arbitrarily based on description of music):-

Kreator - Cause for Conflict, Coma of Souls, Enemy of God, Pleasure to Kill, Violent Retribution
Sodom - Til Death Do Us Unite, Code Red, Sodom, Persecution Mania

^Just had to say this is an excellent selection.


As for myself last few downloads were:
Rose Kemp - Golden Shroud, excellent doom with folk influences
TwinSisterMoon - Levels and Crossings, understated and trippy experimental-Folk
Flying Canyon - Flying Canyon, Psychedelic rock at it's haziest

bruce springsteen wrecking ball

played it non stop for a week and a bit now, absolutely brilliant album by The Boss, up there with his best albums IMO...

bolded are the best from each band.

Good Morning Spider - Sparklehorse

Any chance you could send me a link to this?

Meshuggah - Koloss (2012)

Grabbed this a few days ago but still haven't listened to it. I've been on a huge country kick the last few weeks, but I think I'll throw this one my mp3 player and listen to it the next time I go to the gym, seems like an appropriate album for that environment.
