I’ve listened to a lot of music over the last week, as I’ve been putting in a lot of hours and my iPod plays constantly when I’m busy at work.
According to Audioscrobbler, I listened to the following bands the most over the last week:
- Idlewild – Second week in a row. I’m really enjoying Warnings/Promises
- The Clash – Sandanista! mainly
- Aghan Whigs – Oh yeah, I know what jail is like
- The Charlatans UK – Same position as last week.
- Beck – Finally got around to listening to Guero
- Neko Case – Man, can this woman sing!
- Wilco – For those of you who know me, this should come no shock
- Swervedrive – Thanks Damon for filling out my collection here.
- Gorillaz – Demon Days is another album I’d highly recommend (if Gorillaz is your thing)
- The Smiths – And I still don’t remember hearing them this much (33 times apparently)
And, drum roll please, the most listened to track of the last week? We have a five way tie with 13 times each!

Trending
- Beck – “Pressure Zone”
- The Charlatans UK – “Impossible”
- Idlewild – “Everyone Says You’re So Fragile”
- Idlewild – “I Want a Warning”
- Gorillaz – “Every Planet We Reach is Dead”
I expect to see both Maximo Park and Artic Monkey on these lists next week. You’ve been warned!
Finally, since I’ve never reported the top five all-time musical artist, here goes: The Clash, The Charlatans UK, Pulp, Wilco, and Idelwild (in that order). That seems about right to me even if Idlewild is currently a bit artificially high (displacing Afghan Whigs).
NP: “Black Dress” – Ed Harcourt
