Spyderco Forums

When I get into these type of threads, I tend to have too much time to kill. And this is no exception. The weather has been straight up mayhem for the last week and it has eventually killed my motivation to do anything outdoor related.

I listen to just about anything, and can't say I have a specific taste. There are some songs and artist trending at different points in time though, and lately it seems these are getting the most playtime:

I'm not a fan of Sigrids own work, but she's a great singer and does some amazing covers. This is probably my favorite one, a live cover of a Norwegian hip hop song in a dialect so difficult I had to look up the lyrics to understand any of it myself. She does her own version and just nails it. The lyrics are quite meaningful once you understand them, so non Norwegian speaking listeners will obviously miss out on that dimension

Another artist that does great covers (in my subjective opinion) is Peter Buka. He might not be the most polished pianist, but there's a raw energy and passion there that's really enjoyable to listen to.

The rock genre is probably my favorite overall, and after Eddie van Halen sadly past away last year, my interest in van Halen had something of a resurgence. This still being my favorite

Whenever I'm in my truck, I always have turned on SiriusXM channel 58, Prime Country. Imo, that's the very best of Country Music.

I just have a Polyphia shuffle going on Amazon right now. Really fun guitar instrumental music and very upbeat. Just hard not to tap my feet or hands.

Thanks for posting that, shunsui. The Mamas & The Papas had some of the best vocal harmonies.

A nice, mellow song compared to what I normally post here :)

This is the only Beach Boys song I ever liked. Back in the ‘70s, I didn’t even know it was by The Beach Boys. It’s a great song:

I just heard the newest song out on Liquid Metal on my way home from work. That song Inhumane Harvest made it's way onto my workout playlist. That song gets me going.

I've listened to it too. It's pretty good but I think The Black Dahlia Murder's last release is my fave of the recent ones.
Even though I much preferred Ryan Knight's lead work to Brandon Ellis'.
Brian Eschbach is an absolutely monstrous rhythm player and composer.
