both are worthy of more listens: YOUNG THE GIANT CADILLAC THREE

While I don't consider myself a big fan of Radiohead, I have been listening to their new album, "A Moon Shaped Pool" along with some "Kid A". Some albums by other artists/bands include Phantasma's "The Deviant Hearts," Avantasia's "Ghostlights," Unisonic's "Light of Dawn," Nightwish's "Endless Forms Most Beautiful," Myrath's "Legacy," Anathema's "Weather Systems," and recently Mono's "Hymn To The Immortal Wind."

So a few albums! It'll change too probably. ^_^

I've been checking out some of John Lennon's solo albums lately (Imagine and a best of hits one) so far I'm enjoying them, someone recommended him to me and Flaming Row's album "Elinoire" which is interesting and experimental and the album "Shelter" by Alcest which is summery befitting for August.

Still listening to some albums I mentioned in my last post in this thread. Taking my time with them even though I am looking at other artists right now. Anathema's "Weather Systems" just fits what I need right now, I could spin it all day.

New albums for me:
World's End Girlfriend - Hurtbreak Wonderland (and a few other songs from other albums). Pretty unorthodox album so far replete with piano, violins, and quirky sounds, and has an melancholic atmosphere to top it off. Some tracks I'm enjoying better than others, but those songs may grow on me.

Caravan Palace - Robot
A silly and weirdly catchy album to listen to.

Kamelot - Haven
A more recent album from this band and with the new singer Tommy from Seventh Wonder. I don't think it's their best one, but it's an okay album to listen to.

Damien Rice - O
A minimalistic album which has acoustic guitar, violins, a guest vocalist, and has a lot of feeling. Decent vocals and pleasantly to sit back and listen to. A singer-songwriter bare bones approach Damien Rice takes. Good find. So far I Iike the tracks Older Chests, The Blower's Daughter, and Delicate.

Destiny Potato - Lun
This album has different elements being used from djent (which I'm not very familiar with), pop sensibility, some growls, Aleksandra Djelmash's voice is nice too. Initially, the music seems to have a lot going which can easily go haywire. The growls are the low point of this and there's a certain verse in the track Love Song that isn't very good. Random.
Highlight tracks for me: Lunatic, House of Lies.
