Anybody listen to Daft Punk's latest album? I am listening to it right now and I am loving the funk/disco feel it has going on. And obviously Get Lucky.

No... but I like some Daft Punk songs.

Which ones do you like?

I finished listening to Random Access Memories by Daft Punk, and even though I was into it at first and I love Get Lucky I wasn't completely impressed by the album as a whole. I like it, but I don't love it.

Top Ten
1. Nine Inch Nails / Tool / Beastie Boys (Tied for 1st, depends on the mood.)
2. ACDC / Gorillaz / Bob Marley / Sublime / Depeche Mode (See above.)
3. Rage Against the Machine / System of a Down / Metallica / Bush / Collective Soul
4. Nirvana / Foo Fighters / Lit / The Offspring / Linkin Park / Korn / Radiohead / The Smashing Pumpkins
5. Beck / 50Cent / Filter / Snoop Dogg / David Bowie / Rammstein / 2Pac / Aphex Twin
6. Pearl Jam / Soundgarden / Alice in Chains / Third Eye Blind / Blur / Blind Melon / Staind / Snoop Dogg
7. Eminem / Limp Bizkit / The Black Eyed Peas / Red Hot Chili Peppers / 3 Doors Down / Everlast / Deftones
8. Saul Williams / Crystal Method / The White Stripes / Everclear / P.O.D. / Stone Temple Pilots
9. Disturbed / Snake River Conspiracy / Stabbing Westward / The Prodigy / Powerman 5000 / Ludacris
10. Fuel / Local H / Eve 6 / Green Day / Blink-182 / The Toadies / Lo-Fidelity All-Stars

Kind of surprised to see Green Day and Blink-182 on the same list as Disturbed and Metallica

On Your Own Love Again is still my favourite from 2015. Then again I only listened 15 albums.

Like every other Daft Punk album I've heard, it's a very generous where the hits/singles are good but everything else blurs together and makes the album feel like a chore to get through.

Looking for music similar to the following:

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Bon Iver

Any suggestions are appreciated!

To Pimp a Butterfly. How much do you love it?

Nothing original, but Fleet Foxes and Iron + Wine for Bon Iver and 16 Horsepower for Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.

Thanks Mark. I recently bought an Iron and Wine album, very good stuff, and have been meaning to buy Fleet Foxes. Will definitely check out more 16 Horsepower.

A lot.

Good week for rap. Earl Sweatshirt's album appears to be really darn good. I've only heard 11 minutes so far, I doubt a major drop in quality will occur.

Action Bronson's album also just dropped. I am less excited for this one than Earl's, as Bronson can be hit or miss, I am hoping for a big hit though.

I have a very strange taste in music that doesn't exactly conform to this genre or that one. I forgot Gary Numan, Zombie and Presidents of the United States. -facepalm-

Dayum, Kamasi Washington released an album. 3 hours long! I can't find it anywhere, though.

NEVERMIND. Found it.
