Last night we were listening to the latest from Sturgill Simpson, Lumineers and The Wild Feathers...
Simpson's cover of Nirvana's In Bloom is particularly tasty IMHO.
Can't go wrong with the Lumineers. 
Their latest Cleopatra just hit and on first listen- solid if you're a fan!
Marko I am all over the map musically but during my "formative" years was into punk or whatever you want to label the genre by decade. One of my greatest concerts was the Ramones- a friend of mine's brother was their sound guy and we got to hang backstage during the show and then on their tour bus after. Joey drank Yoohoo the entire time. So very cool and of course a fantastic show.
My first Ramones show was at the Armadillo (R.I.P.) in Austin during their first nationwide tour. After every song, the crowd would throw their plastic cups of beer at the band, thinking it to be punk protocol, whereupon Joey would use a lot of bad language intended to stop the beer-chucking. By the later stages of the show, beers were being thrown while they were performing, as well. Very frustrated and angry, I suspect they ended their set early. Nevertheless, to me it felt history-making.
In reading through this thread, I'm impressed by the diversity of music represented. There's a lot of music out there that deserves to be heard!
