Something away from the norm.

So you had a crap day get home lock yourself away, what album/s do you put on?

For me its

Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon in full SACD Glory cranked up nice and loud puts shivers down my spine every time.

Followed by Radio Head Kid A

Finally in to

Best of the Doors

Mind Bomb - The The
Seamonsters - The Wedding Present

Machine head

Another brick in the wall

The Animals

War of the worlds

The Cure - Disintegration

For me the best album ever by a long long way but it wont do much for lifting your spirits!

Depends how bad...
Joy Division, Portishead, Pink Floyd, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze.

Rumours -Fleetwood Mac
Phil Collins -Face Value
Queen -Best of
With a bit of Black Sabbath thrown in.

i would also go floyd and radiohead but would go division bell (without waters) and ok computer or the bends.

i have got Fleetwood Mac Rumours on vinyl must agree its a bit good

i like to put stone roses on or ian brown and a bit of the happy Mondays

Thomas Koner - Permafrost
Leonard Cohen - Songs
John Cage - In a Landscape

Led Zep for me works wonders

Depends on the mood but ....

Stone Roses - The Stone Roses,
Texas - Southside,
MCIXXI (or what ever its called) - Enigma
Dark side of the moon - Pink Floyd
Greatest all time classic hits or what ever its called - no idea

I just had a pants week, and missed out on my usual stress reliever (game of squash) so tonight I started off with some angry shouty music (Scar Symmetry - Holographic Universe) at high volumes in the workshop, then moved on to Black Stone Cherry, then Pink Floyd (Pulse, both albums!), and I'm currently finishing off with a good dollop of Ludovico Einaudi (Diviniere).



Feeling quite chilled now...

Bloody hell you're a right miserable bunch!

When I've had a crap day / week, then I want something to lift my spirits - not depress me further!

You need cheered up ?

For cheering up:
Any Reel Big Fish album

For getting more pissed off:
Recently Clawfinger: Life Will Kill You (or Zeroes and Heroes).

For energy:
Prodigy: Invaders Must Die or Music For The Jilted Generation

VNV Nation is good for all of the above

has to be Marillion,Mr H .most uplifting track for me has to be Easter

Dexy's first album Searching for the Young Soul Rebels (although I've edited that awful poetry track off my copy of the cd).
It's got a bit of everything.
Dave

Nothing beats the Doors for getting over a rubbish day but for me its more for the drive home than when I get in.

I usually put on the Cassette version of Hunky Dory (It has the best mix and track list of any version) to lift me up or I put on some Soul or some Status Quo.

If I'm really down then I too reach for the Cure albums but I prefer the much more upbeat Head on the Door or three imaginary boys. That or Let it Be, thats a great album to mellow out to.
