Gorth Posted December 27, 2020 Posted December 27, 2020 Till Lindemann - Knebel ("Gag" in English). Yes, this *is* the censored version. I've seen the uncensored one. Not going to link it here. Edit: Lindemann is the lead singer in Rammstein, from his solo project Incidental nudity (I think/hope you need to have a verified youtube account to watch it) “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.” - Albert Einstein

majestic Posted December 31, 2020 Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) I like looking at your album lists and grinning like an idiot every time I recognize an artist or group. This one? Yeah. Never heard anything from them. Or even of them. At all. Just realised that's a lie. I know who Miles Davis is. Damn you, Miles Davis! Just how did he bring out a new album, he's been dead for a while now. Someone needed some royalties, huh? Edited December 31, 2020 by majestic Woops! No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.

Just how did he bring out a new album, he's been dead for a while now. Someone needed some royalties, huh? The Miles Davis is an archival live release from a 1969 concert. You might say it's cheating to include it in a 2020 list considering it's a 50+ year old recording, but really, it's so good it deserves a mention of its own. And yeah, most of these acts are fairly obscure or underground, certainly scraped the bottom of the barrel to get to some of them, but I do think these records are all very good and ones I would recommend. On the link there's a series of genres for each of the records, in case any of them call out to you and you'd be intrigued about checking them out! Also certainly not all artists on the list are unknowns - there's the likes of Run the Jewels, Kylie Minogue, Lianne La Havas, Jessie Ware, Kali Uchis, Charli XCX and others who've all had pretty huge hits this year and in the past!

majestic Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 Oh, wow, I can say I know Kylie Minogue from her duet with Nick Cave. Couldn't get that out of my head, you know? Missed her going over the list three times. Guess I'm getting old(ish). Anyway, having a big hit isn't exaclty a requirement for me knowing something. Especially not this year where my exposure to regular radio was essentially zero and me never really klicking on "trending" links on any social media platforms. My taste in music comes down to certain parts of metal and a certain appreciation for a genre that is both very local and essentially has been somewhat dead for a while now (there are newer groups and artists, but most I don't like). Take this for instance: Just in case you're wondering, yes, that's actually a happy birthday song for a cemetary. No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.

Malcador Posted January 7, 2021 Posted January 7, 2021 Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra
Gorth Posted January 8, 2021 Posted January 8, 2021 I probably posted most of the Rammstein songs of decent recording quality I could find (either here or mostly in the heavy metal threads), so here is some Rammstein cover “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.” - Albert Einstein
Keyrock Posted January 9, 2021 Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) I want to say that this is the low key best The Who song: At the same time I have a sneaking suspicion that everybody else also thinks this is the best The Who song and I just don't know about it.

Bartimaeus Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 1 Quote Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.
Gorth Posted January 11, 2021 Posted January 11, 2021 From Gorths nostalgia corner, one of the few things better than Rammstein. Queen... “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.” - Albert Einstein
Malcador Posted January 14, 2021 Posted January 14, 2021 For some reason I'm reminded of Phillip Glass. Which is probably unkind to Fripp et al. Why has elegance found so little following?

Gorth Posted January 15, 2021 Posted January 15, 2021 Jarre might be a European thing, I don't know. It was once very popular on the radio and as backing tracks for various stuff. And something "pacier" “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.” - Albert Einstein
