Welcome to the forum. That's great list..

I've finally found your intro thread. I said this in the picture thread, but i'll say it here as well. Happy to see you may stick around. You're an awesome member already and you fit right in.

Welcome! :)

Wh... what is furniture music..?

Styx?

Noticed you mainly seem to be into the avant garde kinda stuff. I've dabbled a bit, but I mostly major in metal, and minor in old school alternative/post-punk/proto-punk/art rock from the mid-sixties up till the nineties (yes I pretty much consider it to be an umbrella sub-genre of rock). Just curious if you ever dabble in the weirder end of the metal spectrum (e.g. experimental black metal, Celtic Frost, weirder drone, Faith No More, etc)? Then we'd probably have a lot more to talk about.

Ladies and gents - stay tuned tonight for a treat. I'm really enjoying all of your musical engagement, (I can't tell you how long I'd been looking for a posse like this,) and I think it would be helpful if I posted something that really gets into my favorite works. Stay tuned around 5:30 tonight!

She's here all week folks. Remember to tip your waitresses and be sure to try the veal.

My humble contribution to your intro thread.

I couldn't agree more with your description of Rain dogs, though I found Franks Wild years a slight disappointment after such a thundering classic.

If you're a Waits fan be sure to check out my review of his entire discography, ongoing in my journal at the moment.

And welcome! I'm not into all the experimental stuff you're into, but it's great to see someone who understands music and is very literate --- not to mention polite --- as well. Like others have said, I reckon you'll find a home here and hopefully stick around.

ETA: Oh, may I also suggest thinking about starting your own journal? It sounds like it would be pretty interesting and you already seem to have potential readers here...

Innerspaceboy's Top 550 Albums of 2014
 

Checking in as promised with something to share with all those interested in digging deeper into my record crates. I take my Music Library seriously - I've well over 13,000 albums in my catalog to date between vinyl, CD, and FLAC, and I publish infographics, quarterly reports, and other related documents to help make sense of it all.

I also have a music blog with 18,000 annual readers and am presently peaking at 180 followers per-day. I'll look around MB to see if there's an appropriate thread in which to share the blog.

And I may be accepting a gig as the head writer for a NYC newsweekly's music column, so stay tuned!

For those interested in exploring my Library I threw together my first attempt at data visualization a few Saturdays ago. This should shed a good deal of light on my principal musical interests (though I am ALWAYS open to try something new!) I'm really looking forward to discovering some great tunes in this community.
