My 2 favorite ways to recharge:
1) Take in an extraordinary view.
2) Take an hour to absorb some music.
Here's my latest playlist from Echo & The Bunnymen to Hozier to Foo Fighters. Plus some bands that you don't hear everyday.

A view of the Northern Lights over water. Mostly colored green, with a few vertical beams of purple light.

I spent the last hour or two listening to Echo & The Bunnymen. Yes, their 80's work would be their best. But I had forgotten how good 2005's "Siberia" album was. Fans of The Bunnymen should give it a listen. If not the whole album, at least "Sideways Eight" & "Stormy Weather". You can stream all of "Siberia" on Soundcloud.

1001 Albums You Need To Hear Before You Die.
I just rated number 900, so it feels like getting into the end stages now. One album per day, short breaks on the holidays, so I've been going for about 3 years. The generator uses all version of the book, so I've got about 200 albums to go still.

Since the last update, about 8 months ago:

* Never heard them before, how awesome is this?: #themonks #drive_like_jehu
* Never realised how much I like them: #echo_and_the_bunnymen , #sonicyouth
* I liked this before, this is still excellent: #CocteauTwins , #tomwaits , #nickcave
* This really isn't for me: #emersonlakeandpalmer , #steelydan , #pil

According to the stats, my favourite sub-genres are:
Post-Rock ( #sigurros , #tortoise , #talktalk )
Industrial ( #nineinchnails , #laibach , #atomizer , #pereubu )
Zolo(?) (Talking Heads, Frank Zappa, XTC, King Crimson)
