Things have been a bit quiet of late, so here's an icebreaker we did 
a while ago:

What are you listening to right now and/or have stacked by the 
stereo/computer/whatever?

Now playing: Skip Spence's _Oar_, which now has a solid grip on my 
brain.  "Little Hands" is on right now, and is perfect.

In the bag near the computer:
Santa Dog's funpack
We Are Vikings (college kids with vocal harmonies and a good pop sense)
Bedhead: _Beheaded_ (slow, ethereal, creepy 3-guitar rock)
Butthole Surfers: _Psychic...Powerless...Another Man's Sac_  (Had to 
replace the vinyl copy.)
Fuck: _Conduct_ (much more mellow than you'd expect from the band 
name.  Some really good moves, including "Italy," which almost has a 
TV vibe in the ending section)
Myles Boisen: _Guitarspeak_ (really enjoying this free-improv guitar 
noise.  Fred Frith's a guest on this, which should give you some 
indication)
Jandek: _White Box Requiem_ ("Notes get picked like scabs"--Byron 
Coley.  I'll note that I'm also involved in the Jandek tribute, for 
which I've picked a tune from the middle period--when he was actually 
tuning the guitar.)

Anybody else?
