For some unusual reason... so I'm going to share music that doesn't necessarily help my situation, but does seem to provide a subtle calmness while whatever is wrong passes.

I found this band, this atmospheric, progressive rock group who not only can seem to make you depressed but also has the ability to sound uplifting as well. I'm sure this band will have some appeal to a few, it's not exactly everyone's cup of tea.

Anyway, The American Dollar is so overwhelmingly amazing that I can't find words about how much they mean to me.

The American Dollar - Very nice stuff.


Heavier, but still just as easy to drift away to...

Very nice music, but there's not really a reason to start a new thread for it...

There's always the music recommendations thread.
