Everything Else / Re: What takes your attention these days?
« Last post by Rusco on June 03, 2026, 09:47:42 PM »
What takes my attention at these days it's that I'm building a house, a building, with my wife. The timeline to do the things is mostly In my head. Counting weeks and things to do before a next stage of level of renovation will come. If I'll get lazy it'll mean more expenses.

But I'm sort of happy we're at this point. Everything will end at some point and this is what I've hoped for years so I'll take it as it comes.

Everything Else / What takes your attention these days?
« Last post by Rusco on June 03, 2026, 09:38:15 PM »
Oh, well, if not happy, nor sad or angry, what is it that will take your attention?

Something you keep thinking over and over again. Is there a question or some kind of a challenge you keep thinking on - maybe a job or some kind of a game, task to do or maybe a goal to achieve?

There's 4 bands I've followed right from the beginning and continue to listen to everything they release now and have seen live numerous times;
1 NMA
2 Manic street preachers
3 Therapy?
4 Leatherface

I'm also somewhat obsessed by Motorhead,Metallica,slipknot,the sisters,the cult,spear of destiny,the chameleons,Depeche mode,talk talk,the damned,stiff little fingers,Sugar,stereophonics,Biffy clyro,social distortion and several dozen others.

As Jessie from the fast show might say though "today I've mainly been listening to" Creeper and electric callboy! (Sometimes you just have to take life less seriously!)

"Quadrophenia" is perhaps the finest rock album ever made.

If I'm not mistaken, this is Justin Sullivan's favorite (Rock) album. "The Real Me" and "Love Reign Over Me" are superb songs. The Franc Roddam film based on the album is also very good.

Yup, I also remember Justin saying that once in an interview.

Not so much a top 5/10 or any number for that matter, but just a list of the bands I come back to again and again in no particular order.

New Model Army of course - I wouldn't be on this site otherwise!
The Who, particularly their stuff from '70 to '73 - "Quadrophenia" is perhaps the finest rock album ever made.
Van Der Graaf Generator/Peter Hammill - the sheer depth of some of Hammill's songs never ceases to amaze me.
Half Man Half Biscuit - one band I definitely think have got better with age.
Hawkwind - mainly the 1970s stuff, either the Lemmy era or the Quark/PXR5 times.
The Albion/Morris On bands - soundtrack of my childhood (along with Steeleye Span), Ashley Hutchings always had a knack of finding great musicians.

REBOOT!

Re-reading this thread reminded me of something I did on another music related Forum recently when I had to whittle down all the bands I've loved over the years into a top 5 and this was what I came up with...

New Model Army
The Smiths
Depeche Mode
Manic Street Preachers
Paradise Lost.

So there you have it.   ;)
