The new Rush album really kicked them up higher than usual, as most of their albums have 6 or 7 songs a piece. They even kicked Steely Dan out of the top spot.

Yeah, that album has really dominated my listening for the past couple months. It also inspired me to re-watch the live DVDs I own (Exit Stage Left, Rush In Rio, R30, Snakes & Arrows: Live and Time Machine) which of course isn't reflected by Last.FM stats.

I've been jamming a lot more Prog this month but it's been The Buena Vista Social Club and it's spin-offs that have dominated thus far in August.

Last 7 Days:
1. Kyuss
2. Rare Bird
3. Soundgarden
4. Morbid Angel
5. Sepultura
6. Ween
7. Jag Panzer
8. Rush
9. Nevermore
10. dISEMBOWELMENT

Really varied stuff this week.

I've been all over the board as well but lately I had been jamming a lot more Prog but now thatnks to my friend's demo I'm on a helluva punk kick.

Here's my most-played for the last 30 days:

1. Beardfish
2. Camel
3. Rush
4. Black Sabbath (been awhile since they made the list)
5. Iron Maiden
6. Anathema
7. Opeth
8. Jethro Tull
9. Porcupine Tree / Rare Bird (tie)
10. Jimi Hendrix

Progressive rock band from Sweden (most of current bands I like are from Sweden), they are excellent. They have the retro-prog thing down, yet they mix enough interesting elements together to achieve their own distinct approach.

Last 30 Days:

1. Jag Panzer
2. Kyuss
3. Atheist
4. Sortilège
5. Rush
6. Queensrÿche
7. Fates Warning
8. Rare Bird
9. Iron Maiden
10. Nevermore

Last 7 Days:

Fates Warning (36)
The Beatles (28)
Voyager (26)
Yes (22)
Tool (22)
Black Sabbath (19)
King Crimson (17)
Cirith Ungol (17)
Jimi Hendrix (16)
Jag Panzer (15)

Once again, a nice variety of styles going on.

I've been checking them out recently. Mammoth is a WONDERFUL album.

Anyway, lately:

1. Mastodon
2. Ween
3. Primus
4. Bob Welch
5. Pineapple Thief
6. Tom Waits
7. Stealers Wheel
8. Fox Van Cleef
9. T. Rex
10. The 88

I've been jamming Christian music exclusively lately, I do that once in a while to clean my mind out...

Today has been an all-Hendrix kinda day. Joyous.

So I noticed!

...and then I followed that up with "Time" by ELO. An odd mix, but somehow it works in my head.

I really like Hendrix, but I almost never listen to any of his stuff. I'm very rarely in that mood.

Past 7 Days for me:

1. Tool - 63
2. Budgie - 51
3. Jag Panzer - 24
4. Peter Gabriel - 19
5. Judas Pries - 18
6. The Dave Brubeck Quartet - 14
7. Rush - 13
8. Morbid Angel - 13
9. Nick Drake - 11
10. King Crimson - 11

When I was younger I had to be in a specific mood for Hendrix...not any more, now I could play him at any time and enjoy it.

However, the stuff I listened to as a teenager I have to be in a very specific mood for. Perceptions shift as time passes.
