Been having a few days where I don't particularly feel like doing anything (until TAFE starts next week) but sitting around and listening to some slow acoustic / jazzy / type music.

Don't really feel like gaming, don't really feel like dealing with people. Still waiting for my muscles to recover after starting weights to get fit again, so can't do anything that takes effort, I've just been watching a "katawa shoujo" playthrough on youtube and listening to music.

I think "Time Flies" by Porcupine Tree is my #1 played song while I just mosey about and achieve nothing, but I'm curious to what you guys listen to on days like today?

Ben howards debut album Every Kingdom is a fantastic listen that always lifts my spirits.

Everyone should check him out

Faith No More - Stripsearch
Incubus - Drive
Massive Attack - Teardrop
Audioslave - Be Yourself
The Decemberists - The Hazards of love 2/4
Editors - Munich
Interpol - Just about every song
Little Birdy - Stay wild
Magnetic Morning - At a Crossroads, Passive
Mr Bungle - Pink Cigarette / Retrovertigo
Porcupine Tree - My Ashes
Portishead - Glory Box
Royksopp - Remind me
Sarah Blasko - Always worth it
Something for Kate - Twenty Years

Brad Sucks.

Not quite acoustic but I've found these beats to be very relaxing

Berton - Other People's Problems

DJ Shadow - Entroducing

Anyone that likes their beats/indie electronica should definitely have a listen to Breton, their first album just released, couple of enterprising cats from South London.

Also the Another Earth sound track is very melancholic, cool film too.

nightmares on wax - you wish
paul oakenfold - get em up ft ice cube
gorillaz - melancholy hill ?

Some good songs there.

Been sitting around with a set of cans on listening to 'em and chilling.

Shad, Porcupine Tree are a weird band for me. 'Time Flies' is one of my fav songs, yet some of my most hated songs are from them as well XD

Never thought I'd find a band that I both loved and hated.

::EDIT::

I don't know what melancholic means but here, have some of this

Oh god, that song... XD

Melancholic - Kinda feeling gloomy and dark, sad almost.

It's not exactly depressed or anything, though you could argue it, but it's kind of like when it's raining and you're cold and you don't really want to do anything or talk to anyone.

It doesn't always mean you're always like it, it just hits me sometimes for a day, then I go back to normal *shrug*

force them to wrap with a < br > after each embed tag

this will lift your spirits



edit: oops thats what i listen to when im angry.

these guys right here produce the most chilled out music

Radiohead definitely. Awesome.

Ok, everyone listen to this if you don't know it. Don't blame me for any suicides though.

"And you even stay over, but now we stay in our clothes. I'm only there so that you're not alone."

Some good ol' fashioned depressing shit!

All that happy shit before rubber sole sucked.

Doves

May make you want to kill yourself, or possibly just cry.

Shock absorbers are busted on every car in that video. Either that or they're just only simulating the spring and not the dampening effect of an absorber. It makes everything bounce like a 1980's Cadillac.

+1 viper, doves kingdom of rust whole album rocks me.
what other album should i get?

also read the description from that car-crash game vid, found the artist:

not bad, but I raise you 'Buying a New Soul' off the Recordings album!

Currently for me- the entire Red Forrest album from If These Trees Could Talk.
