What music are you listening to right now?

I've been listening to a lot of Orphaned Land, lately. Ever since I saw them live a few months back I can't put them down. They're an Israeli metal band that has a lot of neat Middle Eastern influences in their music.

Orphaned Land- The Path pt. 1: Treading Through Darkness


Orphaned Land- From Broken Vessels

 
Opeth- Hours of Wealth


Opeth has remained my favorite band of all time for as long as I can remember. Mikael Akerfeldt's musical prowess is unmatched, and his blues influence in apparent in almost every song he creates.

"Ghost Reveries" is Opeth's most underrated album. It's a fitting outro for long time drummer Martin Lopez and Peter Lindgren. Lindgren became an IT consultant in Sweden and Lopez left the band due to health related issues. However, I read recently that Martin has been drumming, again, in a new band.
 
80s pop... They don't make it like they used to! Well, duh...but you get what I'm trying to say I hope.

Music was better back then.
 
The video - which seems to be unofficial, if that's applicable in this case - is NSFW and contains old b/w footage of naked ladies and whatnot.

The music is interesting though. I'm not sure what the genre might be called, it's not my usual choice of style, but like I said... I found it interesting when I stumbled over it on the web.
