I haven't been this excited about a new band in probably a decade and a half.

Hallowed Be Thy Name by Iron Maiden.

Subnivean by Lunar Isles. Only 48 000 listens on Spotify? It deserves so much more IMO.

There are very few songs I can listen to on repeat seemingly endlessly and not even notice or get sick of it after a while, but this is one of them:

Sparkle from the movie soundtrack of Your Name:

I just finished downloading the DSD recording of last Monday's Springsteen show in DC (which I attended), although three tracks are missing because nugs.net returns an error every time for those three files. Hopefully they fix it promptly.

DSD recording? Nugs.net? Tell us more. Is this a good source to download music such as the Usenet alt.binaries.* groups where all sorts of music can be obtained?

Nevermind. I see it's a subscription service. I guess the free trial would be useful if there was one concert in particular that you wanted to snag.

It's not necessarily a subscription service. Springsteen sells recordings of every recent concert going back a few tours (not sure when exactly he started, but it was within the past 10 or 11 years) and some concerts from older tours. When the recording becomes available for a concert I attended, I buy it, and since my Astell & Kern player can handle DSD files, I buy that format. I don't subscribe to anything through them–I only buy the particular shows I want. I have some of the "archive" stuff, but not every show; that would be overkill (Grateful Dead fans might disagree, of course).

I'm typing this after downloading the three missing tracks, which became available tonight; I'm copying the entire show to the Astell & Kern player. Took a little while because the entire show was 6.33 GB.

The "Mp3tag" software I use to edit tags on audio files works with DSD files, which is nice because I'm never satisfied with the way anything is tagged.

Kiss used to sell "Off the Soundboard" CDs for their individual concerts. I'm not sure if they pressed/burned them immediately on site and you picked them up after the concert, or if you bought them at the venue and they were mailed to you afterwards.

"Honeycomb" by Deafheaven. You might not like the vocals. I didn't at first. But their music is so gorgeously heartbreaking that I couldn't ignore their music and I eventually learned to appreciate the vocals. They prove the "no good music has been made since 2000" fallacy is wrong.

Nice! There's something unique about Coldplay, it hits deeper than other music in a way that's hard to describe. Clocks is one of my all-time favorites.

I don't know if I would call Coldplay "unique". If it weren't for Radiohead, they wouldn't have a career. And I like some of their early songs. I just wouldn't call them particularly original.

Coldplay made it into several road trip playlists growing up, always brings back good memories. X&Y by far my favorite album.

This is their best song.
