I don't know if anyone has listened to "Sea Wolf" but I highly recommend "Leaves in the River" and "White Water, White Bloom"
Not nearly as metal or musically complex as a lot being thrown around in here, but hey, need a change of pace every now and again

Unknown band, Stompbox, who lasted like a week but put out an amazing album (Stress) in '94. I saw this video on MTV, bought the album, and next thing you know they were playing a gig in my hometown:

…@Jett129 for some reason it made me think of the movie 'Whiplash'! I wonder why?

Been on a real Steely Dan tear lately. They're just so friggin great.
Even as great as they were, it was easy to pick a track for this thread, thanks in parts to the songwriting, the production, and especially Steve Gadd and Wayne Shorter among the universally brilliant performances. I love crazy compositions and excellent studio production, which is one reason I'm a big Zappa fan. They are so different but have a few things in common that I really value.

Been really burning up this record lately — a little bit of ELO/The Move, Nilsson, Emitt Rhodes vibes in there. Apparently this guy's in Jeff Tweedy's solo band vis a vis being a childhood friend of Spencer, which makes me feel like a fucking fossil… but damn if it's not a great album

Love that Rickard Javerling record! I need to pop it on, been a while. Love that label in general.

Been on a Chris Whitley kick lately. Gone too soon. Could have been a household name IMO, but made interesting choices–too restless to settle into the kind of success his talent warranted. But still made some great (and, to be fair, some less great) music.
