I've been enjoying:

The Notwist - Neon Golden
Death Cab for Cutie - transatlantacism
Menomena - i am the fun blame monster
Dntel - Life is full of possibilities
Donnie Darko Soundtrack
The Postal Service - give up
John Frusciante (Red hot chili pepper's guitarist - his solo stuff) - all
Britney Spears - in the zone and britney. ;)
avril lavigne - under my skin

This is all I've been listening to lately:

The Walkmen – “The Rat”
The Secret Machines – “Now Here Is Nowhere”
Head Automatica – “Brooklyn is Burning”
Longwave – “Here it comes”
Remy Zero – Smallville – The talon mix
Clinic – Walking with thee (whole cd’s good.)
Grandaddy- Sumday (whole cd’s good.)
Division of Laura Lee – “Dirty Love”
Kenna – “Freetime”
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club – B.R.M.C. (whole cd’s good)
Mazzy Star – “Fade into you”
The Twilight Singers – “ Teenage Wristband”

[QUOTE=deker]Donnie Darko Soundtrack[/QUOTE]

Do you know the history of this soundtrack? The movie is amazing. Took awhile for the masses to appreciate it though.

Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Let's Face It
The White Stripes - Elephant

New TOOL album is rumoured to be coming out sometime in the first quarter of 2005. Can't wait.

This is what my iTunes Top 25 list looks like www.tdee.ca/top.jpg ...pretty predictable.

Chevelle - "Vitamin R"

Awesome.

orbital - halycon & on & on (hackers soundtrack)
gary jules - mad world (dont have the soundtrack :()
wishmaster - nightwish (album, crownless and dead boys poem are my favorite)
the beach soundtrack (one of the best soundtracks ever imo)
aerosmith - sweet emotion
prodigy - breath
engima - return to innocence
soup dragons - im free

New Found Glory - Catalyst (not really a NFG fan but this cd was great)
Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue
Blink 182 - Any
Story of the Year - Page Avenue

Hmm... that's off the top of my head, I am gonna make a thread to go to the side of this. :D

I've been listening to Metallica (still) and The Presidents. Every now and then I slip in some Final Fantasy Potions vol. 1 (which is perfect relaxing music).

iTunes is usually tuned into Groove Salad (SomaFM) or Ambient psy chill out (di.fm).

Story of the Year is badass.

For quite a while now I can't get enough of Franz Ferdinand's "Take Me Out"... the video is awesome too.

Jester is right. Franz Ferdinand is the most recent band whose music is so simplistic and yet it's done with such badass attitude.

I downloaded their whole album, it's awesome. check out "jacqueline" and the "dark of the matinee", and "this fire." You'll like em.
