Red Mosquito

Horrible new Muse song sounds like a mix between Keane's "Everybody's Changing", The Police's "I'll Be Watching You", and Christina Aguilera's "Genie in a Bottle"

most overrated band ever.

I only know one person who loves them and it is Ruddo

I wouldn't say that I love Muse, but I do like their first few records. They have some great stuff.

Also... listening to In The Wee Small Hours on vinyl and I'm struck by how truly gorgeous this record is all over again.

What? No, I love old Muse. After black holes or whatever it's all sucked ass

Yes, exactly.

Also, what genre would "Time" by Nancy Sinatra and "Blue Moon" as performed by Elvis be considered? Because I've been in that kind of listening mood lately. I feel like I should be in a desert bungalow in Needles, CA with no air conditioning and curtains waiting for a breeze when I listen to music like that. And I fucking love it

I'm not sure what people would call it, but I LOVE it.

I like the Sad Sack Sinatra trilogy of In The Wee Small Hours, Only the Lonely, and Watertown

Would this song fit that genre?

Haha yeah maybe

How about "Eyes on the Prize" by M. Ward?

If so, that's what is known as "horse folk".

M. Ward has a more modern feel though. Part of the allure of these for me is that I want to listen to them on a shitty record player with that echoey mono sound.

I just created a station on Spotify based on "Time" and so far I mostly like it. Some of it is too upbeat though

Oh man, you're forgetting "Where Are You?" and "No One Cares" -- equally great and equally sad-sacky! I assumed this newly expanded group of works would be called a "pentalogy," so I Googled the word, and lo and behold, I was right.

Then I got to thinking that my all-time favorite Sinatra album, "September of My Years," would fit into this group of records too. I assumed this would make it a "sexalogy." I got some different results when I Googled that one.

Sad Sack Sinatra Sexalogy has a nice sound to it
