Porcupine Tree -- Deadwing.

It's new and progressive and very tasty. Like if Genesis hadn't started singing top 40 love songs.

I don't think that all of today's hip-hop is crap. Among my current favorites:

--Ozomatli
--Black Eyed Peas
--Dilated Peoples
--Common
--OutKast
--Mos Def
--Talib Kweli
--The Roots

That I'll give you...then again, I haven't been listening to much new music lately, particularly hip-hop.

So sorry - bad me. No bias/slander intended. Just thought it was a widely known assumption - Lillith Faire = feminism = implied lesbianism - PLEASE forgive me for my stereotypical remark. I was at one of those points in my day where the poison darts fly out involuntarily.

I went to the Lilith Faire.
AKA the dick cutter tour? that is what a group of us called it because our lovely brides all came back prepared to castrate us. strange phenomenon.

System of A Down's Mesmerize.
This is just as good as Toxicity, and B.Y.O.B has meaningful lyrics, if you bother to look them up.
They scream about "Why don't presidents fight the war? why do we always send the poor?!" They mention oil, and sing that we are being "fed lies from the tablecloth". At that point, the song becomes poppy and happy and they sing "la la la, everybody's going to the party to have a real good time, dancing in the desert, blowing up the sunshine..la la la la la la la la la la."
I love their use of sarcasm, the fact that they sing about us being lied to and brainwashed, and "Cigaro" seems to be written from Bush's point of view:
"My cock is much bigger than yours" ..."We're the propagators of all genocide
Burning through the world's resources
Then we turn and hide "
The lyrics are meaningful and the music ROCKS!

Don't steal it- Buy it!!
