Last.fm milestones

I enjoy the stats portion of Last.fm more than anything else around here, and I find that some of the tools that are out there for extending the statistics are quite impressive.

Here is something I generated that I found too big for my about me section as I already have a few things there.

It's quite amusing how some completely random listens have found their way into the "milestones".

My Thirteen favorite Black Sabbath covers

2009年 4月 22日, 22:02 作者：godemperorofhel

(DISCLAIMER; I am never saying they are the best, just my favorite)

Worthy of note, but not my favorite.
--Dio N'arap - Sopor Aeternus and The Ensemble of Shadows
Not so much of a cover but an adaptation based on Black Sabbath's Paranoid, changed lyrics and added atmospheric vocals. I would listen to Sopor Aeternus more but I am freaked out by that Anna-Varney person.

--Symptom of the Universe - Metallica
You should always praise someone who happens to interpret his favorite song. It's Metallica (you may have your opinion of them, I don't even listen to them anymore) paying tribute to the Masters of the genre.

13 Sabbath Jam - Eyehategod

Finally, someone understands that Cornucopia has a killer intro, but is a lackluster song. So they take the intro off it in order to introduce Hand of Doom and end with Behind the Wall of Sleep. A great amalgamation of three great songs.

12 Black Sabbath Medley - Candlemass

Top 15 Heaviest Albums of All Time (That I Own)

2007年 10月 31日, 18:18 作者：BlackSabbath86

There are different definitions of the word "heavy". I personally don't think it's down to the amount of distortion on the guitar or how fast and intense the music is. No, I'm not really sure how to describe heaviness if I'm honest, but I do think a lot of it has to do with the guitar and rhythm section, and overall atmosphere. I'll try and justify my claims, but if anyone disputes them then feel free; it's all opinion in the end.

1. Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
The album that started it all. Still stands up as being the heaviest album out there, 37 years after its release.

2. Black Sabbath - Master of Reality
With tracks like Sweet Leaf, Children of the Grave, Lord of This World and Into the Void, how can you go wrong? It's a really short album, which I suppose is probably for the best, otherwise the heaviness might actually be deadly.

3. Black Sabbath - Vol. 4
Cornucopia and Under the Sun are a couple of the heaviest songs ever recorded. 'nuff said.

4. Sunn O))) - ØØ Void

Playlist June 3rd

Gazpacho Night
Can't stop listening to this one

Rush Snakes & Arrows
A lot of people seem to think this is a return to form, but I never thought they had ever lost it. Excellent stuff!

Black Sabbath Volume 4
My local record shop is selling the early classic Sabbath albums for a fiver each so I bought this one last week. Not played my vinyl copy for many years but listening to it again I was amazed at how familiar it all was. For me this is a bridging album between the doomy grunge blues rock of the first three albums before heading for the stratosphere with Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Sabotage.
Tracks like Cornucopia and Under the Sun would not have been out of place on Masters of Reality and Wheels of Confusion and Supernaut reveal the sound the band are heading towards. Top production as well!

Porcupine Tree Stupid Dream
This was the second PT album I ever bought and it's one of there best. A lot more song orientated than previous efforts but still manages to retain the Prog/Space Rock feel.
