Post some 21st Century Music!

You know how most music threads around here are full of the same old classic rock mainstays? Not this one! Post some music you like post-2000.

Macklemore - Fake ID
This is before he started working with Ryan Lewis, so the production/arrangement isn't nearly as lush as his current stuff. But it's funny - fucker.



Old Crow Medicine Show - O Cumberland River
From their new album.


John Zorn - Little Bittern
Yeah, I've been posting a lot of Zorn lately. Marc Ribot takes center stage on this one, but this is a collection of some of the best musicians in the world.


Muse - Knights of Cydonia
A little Prog, a little post-grunge 90s, a dash of Queen, and an awesomely silly video.

Yes, I like future pop/industrial.

Assemblage 23 - Darkflow (the whole album, Bruise, is excellent)



Darker Days Tomorrow - Desperate (local band for me)


VNV Nation - Streamline


VNV Nation - Sentinal (or Sentinel, depending on which release and when) (the counterpoint is worth the attention.)


Ayria - Infiltrating My Way Through The System (not my favorite, but I can't find the really interesting mix of Big City Lullaby to post.)

There is music from every genre and every era that I've heard that I like, but my go-to music is generally the '50s through the '90s. Part of that is because I don't listen to much radio and I don't live with young people any more, and part of it is that I'm not much impressed with what I hear when I do. But there's always good stuff out there. Here are a few selections that I like, in no particular order:

There are waaaay too many great newer songs to choose from, so I'm sort of picking at random:
