I listened to it once, but there was alot of stuff going on in the apartment at the time so I didn't really focus on it. Sounded good while it was playing, don't really remember anything from it now. I'll check it out again.

I think I like the "idea" of the band more than the band itself, if that makes any sense.

I've been on break from school half of the month, and I've got little to do besides listen to music. Although, I do listen to a lot regardless of time of the year.

I'm envious.

Okay, so here is "2012" for Shawn according to Last.FM.

1. Rush
2. Porcupine Tree
3. Opeth
4. King Crimson
5. Iron Maiden
6. Jethro Tull
7. Jimi Hendrix
8. Black Sabbath
9. Steely Dan
10. The Pineapple Thief
11. Yes
12. Camel
13. Deep Purple
14. Anathema
15. Steven Wilson
16. Beardfish
17. High On Fire
18. Orange Goblin
19. Thin Lizzy
20. Gentle Giant

There's actually a little more metal on the list than I thought there would be, but it's definitely trending down. At the moment I would say the Progressive Rock fixation will continue awhile longer, it seems to fit my headspace right now.

Here's my 2012 list:

1. Steely Dan
2. Rush
3. Opeth
4. Yes
5. King Crimson
6. Iron Maiden
7. maudlin of the Well
8. Fates Warning
9. Sortilège
10. Gentle Giant
11. Tool
12. Jag Panzer
13. Black Sabbath
14. Riot
15. Queensrÿche
16. Camel
17. Savatage
18. Marillion
19. Kyuss
20. Townes Van Zandt

Yeah, these numbers are huge. The smallest amount of plays there is 175, while the largest is 720.

I think it's kewl how quickly TVZ infiltated your headspace, I just hope you don't burn out on him...

Those listens were only from four or five albums: I've but only scratched the surface!
