Can't stop listening. Not even going to sleep anymore.

Came across Intergalactic.FM recently while going through Youtube videos. Someone had mentioned it in a comment so I checked it out and came across not one, but four stations:
1. Murdercapital FM
2. Intergalactic Classix
3. Radio Galaxia
4. The Dream Machine

Still familiarizing myself with them so I haven't decided which station is my favorite (probably bouncing between The Dream Machine and Murdercapital FM) but have to say that Saturday on Murdercapital FM is pure ear candy if you're into minimal electronic / wave / synth / industrial / experimental…

These are albums that I've listened to in full and find to be solid from start to finish. Albums that I love every song from. Albums that get repeat plays. Mostly taking note for myself as a reminder since I go through so many and often forget albums until a year or two later BUT if you stumbled across this check some of them out anyway and maybe find a new favorite or two.

Updated often.

As of late (2013):

Widowspeak - Almanac (2013) - Warm, hazy, and haunting folk/shoegaze hybrid. Like tattered white curtains…

(hello alliteration)

I've nothing to say really except that I'm now on the hunt for every original psychedelic band from the late 60's that I could possibly find (and listen to).

Here's what I've collected so far:
13th floor elevators
ant trip ceremony
arthur brown
billy nicholls
blossom toes
clear light
cosmic dealer
dantalian's chariot
elmer gantry's velvet opera
fairfield parlour
fifty foot hose
flower travellin' band
giles, giles & fripp
grapefruit
hunger
jason crest
joe byrd and the field hippies
july
kaleidoscope
love
magic mixture
rainbow ffolly
sagittarius
silver apples
skip bifferty
strawberry alarm clock
the chocolate watch band…

You know you are sleep deprived when you wake up in the morning, go outside, see a chicken, and start meowing at it. Apparently I got it confused with a cat. Took me a minute to get that registered into my head. Even the chicken looked bewildered.

Anyway, on to the music…

Just got done listening to Broadcast's The Noise Made By People and it is so amazing that I'm kicking myself for not checking them out sooner. Not literally, of course. That would be… awkward.
About a year or two, a girl gave me a mix CD that…

Stolen, as always.

Name five musical acts that you like, that surprises people:
1. Opeth - One of the few bands from my metalhead phase that stuck with me, because they're so much more than just metal. They combine elements of blues, jazz, folk, and polka (oddly enough) into their songs, so it's unfair to classify them as a strictly metal band. They're more diverse from their peers which really makes them stand out.
2. 16 Horsepower - They're an alternative country/dark americana band. Most people dislike country, so mentioning that I like this band would surprise some people since…

No. Not really.

This is the third night in a row that I've stayed up until early in the AM just to get my music fix. I really should get some sleep. BUT, being the master at procrastination, I'm going to fill out this pointless survey instead:

Name your top 10 most played bands on Last.fm:

1. The Associates
2. Bauhaus
3. Tones on Tail
4. Tuxedomoon
5. 16 Horsepower
6. Siouxsie and the Banshees
7. Man Man
8. Modern Eon
9. Bubonic Plague
10. Tears for Fears

Just realized that I don't really listen to half of these artists…
