So what kind of music do you listen to? I listen to a form of country called Red Dirt and Alt country( no mainstream country).

Right before I got into the music I am listening to I was into the last 3 you mentioned. And of course Manchester OrchestraI listen to specific bands more than I do genres.
Band of Horses
The War on Drugs
Cold War Kids
Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros
Grouplove
Those bands are all featuring pretty routinely in my rotation right now, among some others.
Manchester Orchestra and Silver Sun Pickups are two others in my go-to playlist right now.Right before I got into the music I am listening to I was into the last 3 you mentioned. And of course Manchester Orchestra

So mostly hard, but you will throw in a good Linger and Fake Plastic Trees !!!!Looking through the Youtube list of stuff I typically hear on a daily basis I am shocked at the variety of the list. If you asked me a couple years ago I would probably have only 2 or 3 of these listed.
- Metallica
- Megadeth
- Disturbed
- The Cranberries
- Jewel
- Scorpions
- Guns N' Roses
- R.E.M
- The Offspring
- Evanescence
- Seether
- Skid Row
- Alanis Morissette
- Radiohead
I loved old Depeche Mode and New Order.I listen to whatever's on 1st Wave. I just can't let go of the 80's.
Love Old97’s.I’m all over the place. On my flight this morning I listened to The Beatles, Old 97’s, Das Racist, Neil Young, and Quicksilver Messenger Service.
Love Old97’s.
I have only seen the Old 97’s once, but it was recent. They played a fest in Key West in February and they were a highlight of the fest. A lot of fans did not know them because it is more Red Dirt/ Texas Country, but they brought the house down.Me too. Saw them in Atlanta a couple weeks ago and it’s still just as good a show as the first time I saw them in ‘01.

First I got to see a private show with Rhett Miller and Evan Felker( Turnpike Troubadors) do a song swap in a small theater. It was amazing. Then a day later Old 97’s absolutely killed it on the main stage.
I will check it out.That’s very cool. I try to never miss a local show whether it’s full band or Rhett solo.
Should you ever want to check out something a bit different, Murray put out a solo record about 10 years ago. It’s way different from Old 97’s tunes but I’ve always dug it.

With the rise of the internet/individual songs on demand, people no longer seem to appreciate the art of making a great album...But the Dead's American Beauty is right up there among the best ever made IMO.Late to the party as usual, in last few years I seem to have become a neo-Deadhead.
Mad Caddies
I know I’m old (66) but I’ve never heard of any of these listed.The War on Drugs - A Deeper Understanding was the best album last year. Trying to not be an old man and go to the late show (starts at 12:15) by TWOD at Variety on Friday, but that would hurt Saturday morning.
Other than that, a brief perusal of my recently played in Spotify...
The National
Grizzly Bear
Local Natives
LCD Soundsystem
Perfume Genius
Future Islands
Unknown Mortal Orchestra
Radiohead
Arcade Fire
Yo La Tengo
Bon Iver
Father John Misty
Iron & Wine
Jason Isbell
Dawes
Shovels and Ropes
Son Volt
Ryan Adams
Mandolin Orange
The Shins
Beach House
The Antlers
Beirut
The Tallest Man on Earth
Typhoon
We must have been at the same show in '01. The old Roxy in Buckhead, right? First time I saw them too. My friend turned me on to them just a few weeks before that show. I loved them instantly, which has honestly never happened with a group I've seen live without already knowing all their songs. I saw them a couple more times at the Variety Playhouse, but not on their last few Atlanta visits. With kids, it's getting tougher for me to drag my carcass out of the house, particularly on week nights when they tend to be in town. Or I'm just getting old.Me too. Saw them in Atlanta a couple weeks ago and it’s still just as good a show as the first time I saw them in ‘01.
One of the best live shows ever. Seen them a few times. Never disappointed.
Also saw the Toasters at Yeomans when it was a dirty dive bar on Davis Island a few years ago.

No kidding. But then again, if we're being honest, do you really give two flips? I mean, come on. We had the golden age of music, am I right?I listen to a ridiculously wide range of music, probably more diverse than anyone I've ever met. Having said that, I never heard of 75% of the bands listed in this thread.

Lol well I'm 40 so...No kidding. But then again, if we're being honest, do you really give two flips? I mean, come on. We had the golden age of music, am I right?
Ah, I was thinking you were already in the ATL at that time. I forget how long ago 2001 is...No, I was still in school so it was at the Cow Haus.
I have a pretty strict “no meeting people from the internet” policy but next time they come to town let’s crush some cheap beer at the show.

Old '97s is probably the only group I like where the word "country" can be used to describe them. But I'm probably different than most of their fans who prefer their rootsy, twangy songs to their more "pop" songs. I like both, but I must admit I enjoy their poppy songs most. Maybe because I was first exposed to them with Satellite Rides. I sort of lost track of them for a couple years and then re-discovered them in '08 with Blame it on Gravity. Loved that from the first listen. Probably too slick for the "true" fans, but I like it. Every now and then I'll check on what's going on with the band and realize they've done a new album and usually buy it. Haven't been grabbed by anything the same way since Gravity, but all their albums are good. Keep me in mind next time they roll through town.
