Everyone who posts here:
The Trip Volume 1
Alice in Chains - Dirt
Pearl Jam - Ten
Nirvana - Nevermind
AC/DC - Back in Black
One album by ToolNothing more after getting a job.
(At least M4L could list some Kyuss albums)
Hey, we're not all part of the Fern group think!
Only The Trip and Pearl Jam from that list would have ever gotten a thrashing from me.
Appetitie, Living Colour - Vivid, Times Up and Biscuits EP, FNM - The Real Thing and Angel Dust are others I thrashed in late high school.
In the late 90s/early 00s I thrashed a bunch of Dance CDs from clubs (either free or buy them cheap).
Now I just have a spotify mix which I just add to when I hear a good song or remember an oldie.

Helmet - Betty

how does everyone consume their music now? I am pretty much 100% spotify.
And in a huge throwback to my teenage years, i make playlists. love putting together a good playlist.
But then every so often i will just binge albums in their entirety. Like i am doing now thanks to this thread
yesterday was I Mother Earth - Dig
Today the Black Album (so far)

@mariner4life I occasionally dip into Spotify, but I used to use Google Play just because I could use it on my watch, etc and I'd been using it for years so had all the playlists I could want, plus found it generally had a better selection (especially when it came to kiwi music). Now that's Youtube Music, which while it's an even better selection, doesn't fucking play on my watch, so shit for gym/running which is typically the times I listen.

@mariner4life I have iHeart app, I search for Rage Against the Machine and it creates a playlist of them and similar music, I get maybe 1 ad every half hour or so, TR Jnr on iPhone gets ads every other song doing same thing.
Great tunes to workout with.
But gee there is some shite about these days, put on MTV top 40...I must be old!
I'm clearly not as much of a muso as most here, I like what I like, some of it people here have poo pood, but I listen to a song cos I like it, although I only really only listen to music now when working out, most other times is podcasts!

Me too - consequently I don't listen to music much.
In fact I only recently boxed up my collection of 2,000 vinyl ready to give them to the Sallies. Back in my teenage years I would buy 4-5 LP's week. Given it was the 70's I threashed all the obvious choices - Sweet, ABBA, Bay City Rollers, The Carpenters...

What was the story there ? Was Nick Mason not good enough ?
From memory it was a particularly difficult time change he just couldn't get right.

Yeah that. I have a playlist which comprises every song I like and I let that play randomly. If I don't want to hear a particular song I skip it.

100% Spotify. Family subscription. I listen to mostly their pre-created play lists, cos lazy.
As an aside, as an Amazon Prime subscriber, they keep talking me I have access to Prime Music or something for free. Anyone tried it?
-
@mariner4life Spotify and YouTube for me - interestingly three of my mates have all bought turntables in the last couple of years and are on record buying streaks.

@voodoo I get the same Amazon emails and haven’t looked at it yet either. Let me know if you check it out. 😉
+1 I am not using "unused portion" or something like that until i know i wont get charged more, so I am with @Nepia on this! lol

Californication - by RHCP. Thrashed on van trip round europe - with just the one CD booklet / folder thing to last 4 months. That was one of the few current albumns, and our collective favourite.
I think thta album got panned by the crititcs.
I also now hate it. But it took 3 and a half months.
Generally, I am not a mucis (or album) thrasher. hate listening to the same shit too much.
I'm a fan of the spoity age rather than albums. My album buying strategy back in the day was if liked 2 singles off an album then risk buying the CD. So many fucking lemons.

Yes and I didn't like that I had to further purchase a music subscription to unlock more albums. So I don't use it.

Huh, that doesn't sound very free at all!

I've never bought into the streaming thing, for any media - other than live sport.
So for music - MP3s, I'll download them for most stuff, but any NZ-artists, I'll buy the CDs and rip them to MP3.
For anything I don't have in my collection, but want to check out - I'll give it a listen on youtube, and then decide whether it's worth downloading and adding to the collection. -
@kruse my old ipod was 98% ripped CDs
but when that croaked, i just moved to streaming because i am just the same as everyone else in modern society, i chose the option cheapest and easiest for me at the expense of the artist.
