    I got some really great suggestions for music from a few of you and have enjoyed an iPod full of new tunes. I thought now would be a good time to start a YGG music thread to keep a running list of all the suggestions for easy reference. I'll post what's been discussed recently.


    Lily Allen - Alright, Still
    Great album, catchy melodies, humorous lyrics

    Mark Ronson - Version
    Mark Ronson - Version
    A lot of different flavors here on one album. I've had this one on repeat for a few days. Weird, new age jazzy feel with a lot of horns. Lily Allen is featured on the track "Oh My God" and it's fantastic.

    Brother Ali - The Undisputed Truth
    Brother Ali - The Undisputed Truth
    He's an overweight albino white Muslim with a lot of talent. Just when you think there are no more true lyricists, something like this comes along. If you're tired of hearing about the same G5, the same Bentley, the same shameless self promotion, check this guy out.

    Must - Black Holes and Revelations
    Muse - Black Holes and Revelations
    I have all of their albums but all the good songs would barely take up a single CD. They do have some good tracks but for me they're scattered few and far between. Some of their stuff is just too weird for my taste. A lot of people swear by them. All in all, worth a shot I guess.

    -----------------------------
    Those are all the ones that I've listened to so far that were recommendations on another thread. Here are a few I've stumbled across on my own that have turned out to be worthwhile...

    Razorlight - Razorlight
    Razorlight - Razorlight
    Good album. Pretty easy listening, decent lyrics, and so far nothing beats my ears up too bad to change the track.


    Slightly Stoopid - Closer to the sun
    If you miss Sublime, you'll dig these guys. Good on a hot day.


    Pepper - No Shame
    Another good Sublime replacement. A lot of songs have some humor which is nice. Again, good on a hot day.

    That's about all I have for now. Feel free to add as you come across great music. And just FYI, I get the images from Amazon.
