Feeling gentler today. Calmer. I enjoy music with great vocal harmonies, and can blame that on my upbringing. So bands like Queen, ELO, Native Construct, Jellyfish, etc. all figure prominently in my playlists now that I'm a grup (yes, that's a TOS reference - if you get it, well, you get it).

So here is a pick for today that I hope you've never heard before, it's "A Kid Called Panic" by Moon Safari.

Often a piece of music either makes me feel or makes me think. It's a treat when I find one that does both, even if I can't explain the why or how of it. Today's pick does both (and also pays homage to Tool). Continuing rock week, here is 'Jurassic | Cretaceous' from the album 'Phanerozoic II:Mesozoic | Cenozoic' by The Ocean (w/Katatonia's Jonas Renkse).

Bonus, I dig rock that incorporates brass.

I'm hearing white lies coursing through the disguises
I hear it all, I hear it all
I'm hearing lost cries chorusing the night sky
And I hear it all, I hear it all
Oh, I hear it all through the wolves in the walls
Who might you be? Who should you be?

Here is "Feathergun in the Garden of the Sun" by Rishloo

Metal is such an interesting genre. One album I've enjoyed over the last few years came out in 2019. It's a wonderfully deep concept album, written by an unknown artist after learning of his dad's terminal cancer diagnosis. I can't write a more thoughtful or complete review than Angry Metal Guy did (see link below). Here is track 1 from Sermon on the album Birth of the Marvellous.

Discovering a band that is new (to me), and whose music makes me wonder "how have I not heard this before?" is a joy to me. Why aren't these guys more famous?

The Dear Hunter is a band I only discovered in the last 2 or 3 years whose compositions, production and artistry have made them a personal favorite. Here are the first two tracks from the album "Act V: Hymns with the Devil in Confessional":

There is something in my brain that attracts me to songs with unusual time signatures, difficult time changes, ticking clocks and polyrhythms (especially polyrhythms). I'm pretty sure it has something to do with how I self-score on RAADS, but that is a topic for another day's discussion. In the meantime, here's another example that tickles my lobes. From Clément Belio, here is Chromatic Curtain:

Before they started to focus mostly on children's albums, Trout Fishing in America had a couple of truly great albums for grownups, most with hilarious lyrics. Here is Lost in Her Lips from the Truth is Stranger than Fishin' CD.

If you are into computing, tech, programming, philosophy, quantum effects, science fiction or are just generally geeky (like me), you'd probably really enjoy the FX series Devs. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend. It's one of those shows I still think about, many months after watching it. Here is Amaya Corporation by Ben Salisbury (from the Devs soundtrack)

The first instrument I learned to play was trumpet, and I discovered Maynard Ferguson early on. All of us in band idolized him and his upper register. We went to his concerts, bought his albums. At that age, it was all about trying to hit those high notes. But later I discovered a guy that put old Maynard to shame. Not only high notes, but control. Finesse. Rock.

So here is (Bill) Chase with Get It On.

Yesterday's pick is an artist I found because of my love of today's pick. For me, Icehouse is one of my best memories of music from the 80's. Here is Crazy by Icehouse. (all songs on that album - Man of Colours - are classics)
