cinco de listening list

Beethoven - The Nine Symphonies!!!
Morten Lauridsen - Lux aeterna
Shostakovich - Complete String Quartets
Moby - Hotel
Beck - Guero
Nine Inch Nails - With Teeth

This trio of new albums was fun to listen to. It's always interesting to hear the new (or not) directions that musicians go in with subsequent albums. Although I have only listened to each of these once, I can say that the Moby is really bad (not a big surprise), the Beck is totally good (even less of a surprise) and the NIN seems like it will settle in nicely as well (thank you, Trent).

(I know I normally have five items on these lists, but it would have been overload today...)
