Recommend me some music, breres.

[Stranger]

I currently jam to the following:

The Beatles
Razorlight
The Libertines
Queen
Pink Floyd
Scissor Sisters
Led Zeppelin
Kings of Leon
Babyshambles

I'm considering the new KT Tunstall and Oasis albums. Are they any good?

[rizz]

You need:
Foo Fighters - The Colour And The Shape

It's like, the perfect album.

[dukkadukka]

the pipettes, the go! team, gwen stefani, m.i.a., dangerdoom, the beach boys, bloc party, COCOROSIE!

[kopo]

QOTSA, FF, Rammstein (many hate it, i love it), lost prophets (very emo), The Hives and the rest i listen to is probably way too obscure for all of you.
If you want something different, you might like belgian music : Hooverphonic, Vive la fete, Absynthe minded,...

[Andrew]

I think you'll like the new Stereophonics album, based on that list above. Oasis' new album is very good too.

[rizz]

Rammstein (many hate it, i love it)

Yup, Herzeleid is my favourite of their works.

[dukkadukka]

ooh, i like obscure music! can you recommend any english-speaking obscure music?

BTW stranger, with kt tunstall you're better off just downloading the singles, the rest of the album is rubbish.

[Raining_again]

QOTSA, lost prophets (very emo)

Love QOTSA!! "Rated R" & "Songs for the Deaf" being my fav albums at the mo!

I think you'll like the new Stereophonics album

love it too :)

[uəʌəsʎɐɾ]

you look indy so I guess you wanna try The Subways, Hot Hot Heat, BRMC? I'd suggest something more Me, but I'd be wrong.

[dukkadukka]

Love QOTSA!! "Rated R" & "Songs for the Deaf"
have you got lullabies to paralyze yet? i think it's their best (and darkest) album yet. stereophonics' new album was pretty great-sounding the first few time si listened to it, too.

[Raining_again]

not yet but i will be :D ooooo dark! im intrested now!

[Ramar]

Lost Prophets emo... What is this madness!.. They are no way emo, shit like My Chemical Romance is emo.

Anyway get some Panic! At the Disco. Thats the business right there.

[dukkadukka]

not yet but i will be :D ooooo dark! im intrested now!
i know this'll make me sound weirder than i already do lol, but when i listen to it it makes me think of monsters and forests in english fairytales

[JonSt]

Right, first off you need the new backstreet boys album. Id also recommend embrace and the new nickelback one.

[kopo]

Lost Prophets emo... What is this madness!.. They are no way emo, shit like My Chemical Romance is emo.


Not 100% emo, but to a certian degree they are. Just look at some of their lyrics.

Well tbh it can be percieved different by anyone. To me they're not emo, they rock

[Sexual Chocolate]

The Editors.

fifteen

[Raining_again]

When i put the Start Something album on media player it decides the genre to be heavy metal...mmm....how bout no?

i get what kopo means about the slight emo-ness to the lyrics, i think they are more like soft rock/pop rock maybe. still a class album tho :)

[Ramar]

Considering the album came out quite a while ok, before emo truly existed. I'd say they fall under Metal.. saying they're emo is saying stuff like Slipknot is emo, there lyrics are different, and sometimes oreintated around the same stuff as emo.. yet they're anre't emo, they are Nu Metal. And a class act.

[Sanchez]

i get what kopo means about the slight emo-ness to the lyrics, i think they are more like soft rock/pop rock maybe. still a class album tho :)


I agree. I also love them. Been listening to them a lot recently.

If you like obscure I have a dutch band here called Ballarina Liberation Front with english lyrics. It's actually pretty good.

Hmm, also try Kaiser Cheifs, based on your list.

[Stranger]

I don't particularly like the Kaiser Chiefs on the whole (some of their songs are good), but they are along the right lines. Thanks. I also like Franz Ferdinand. :)

[EEVILMURRAY]

Nightwish. Do it.

[Dieter]

How can you not like Rammstein? I think there's some kind of mathematical formula proving that it's physically impossible.

Yup, Herzeleid is my favourite of their works.

Heh, funny how tastes vary. I personally thought that Herzeleid was their 'worst' album. Don't get me wrong, it still rocks, just 2% less than say 'Mutter'. My two halfpenny's of course.

[Charlie]

Get Franz Ferdinand's new album, it's amazing. So much better than the first one. Oasis new album is really good too. If you like Queen, get "Live at Wembley '86". I've just got it and I love it.

[dukkadukka]

no disrepect to moria, but ignore his post :heh: the new franz and oasis are both disappointing. on the indie-rock theme though, i'd also recommend be your own pet, yeah yeah yeahs, clap your hands say yeah, arcade fire and wolf parade.

[Platty]

yeah the new oasis album is good, well i like it, just won album of the year in Q i think not sure....

anyway im currently listening to:

The subways
The Editors
Hard-Fi
Bloc Party
Razorlight
We are Scientists

go get them all you will like.

[Colin]

Check out Jade Tree Records label...........there's some quality music to your ears on there, especially These Arms Are Snakes, and Statistics.

Jade Tree (http://www.jadetree.com)

[rizz]

Heh, funny how tastes vary. I personally thought that Herzeleid was their 'worst' album. Don't get me wrong, it still rocks, just 2% less than say 'Mutter'. My two halfpenny's of course.

Hmm... so where would Sehnsucht and Reise, Reise fit into it?

For me, Sehsucht and Mutter are fairly equal, and Reise, Reise the worst. Although, I still love RR of course :P

[Monopolyman]

You seem to have an interest of bands back in the 60's or 70's, so may I recommend The Eagles, The Kinks, The Velvet Underground, Jimi Hendrix, and possibly The Animals

[Andrew]

Hmm, also try Kaiser Cheifs, based on your list.They sound loads better when you've had a couple of drinks and partying with some mates. As do Hard-Fi, their debut album is class. :rolleyes:

[Stranger]

Monopolyman - yeah, I intend to borrow The Kinks greatest hits from my friend. I'm also aware that I need to pick up some Hendrix. I also love The Animals' "House of the Rising Sun", but I don't know enough of their songs to justify buying an album of theirs.

Moria - Franz's new album is on my list. I think Oasis's new single is awesome, but can you please justify a purchase of the album? As for Queen '86, I would...but I already have their Night at the Opera album on my list.

Platty - I have heard good things about those first three artists in particular, but haven't heard their music. Mind sending over a few tracks over MSN?

Anyone here have KT Tunstall's album? Thoughts?

[EEVILMURRAY]

As do Hard-Fi, their debut album is class. :rolleyes:

Chances are it'll be their only one. As is the trend with all these "hot new British bands" which are popping up every five seconds.


I'm still pushing the Nightwish massive. I can send anyone ch00nage if they're interested.

[Girly hiyaz!~ Gamer]

Weezer - Pinkerton

It's all you need in music.

[Daniel]

ok anything by rammstein, the subways, weezer, the chili peppers, hard-fi, roadrunner united (is effing amazing!), blink 182, angles and airwaves, matchbook romance, interpol, slipknot, metallica, chimera, fear factory, type o negative, king diamond, coal chamber, feeder, incubus, reel big fish! all thos bands rock my socks off and im sure they will do the same for you!

[Tom]

i would reconmend anything from this list. assuming you want to fopllow in the hallowed footsteps of cool that is Tom. http://www.last.fm/user/txg399/

more specific reconemndations though: razorlight, editors, subways, zutons, joy division and ash i think.

[Platty]

tom your taste in music is just the same as mine.

[altheman]

Whenever Oasis release a new album people say its shit compared to their old stuff, but thats because Definitely Maybe and Morning Glory were 2 of the best albums of the 90's. Don't Believe the Truth is quite a good album by itself, it's just all the reviews compare it against Definitely Maybe which its obviously never going to match.

Anyways, I recommend Get Behind Me Satan by the White Stripes, been listening to it since it came out monthes ago and it's still great to listen to while on the bus. :)

[Wesley]

The Dears.


((((((((((((((((((()))))))))))))))))))))

[Owario]

Deep purple, Nirvana, Audioslave, Eric Clapton, Rainbow, The Who and Velvet Revolver.

See if you like them.

[Ford Prefect]

Eels
Frank Black
Le Tigre
King Adora
Pretty Girls Make Graves

[Tom]

tom your taste in music is just the same as mine.

we are clearly waay too cool :)
have you got an audioscrobbler thing too?

[uncle_buckman]

m.i.a., dangerdoom, bloc party
Big!

Death From Above 1979 are pretty good too.

If you like Dangerdoom check out Gnarles Barkley's (Cee-Lo and Dangermouse) "Crazy" I take it you heard Madvillan? (MF Doom and Madvillan) If not go do it as soon as.

[old_gregg]

Anthony and the Johnsons aint bad, butwhat about The ZUTONS or IDLEWILD

[Noodleman]

except for your liking of BabySHAMBLES you appear to have similar taste to me so erm I reccomend anything you see bellow http://www.last.fm/user/Noodleman/

[blumeanie.]

Try sham 69 or the stranglers. the stranglers are by far the greatest band ever to come from manchester ,dont listen to those oasis simpletons. also try the velvet underground or lou reeds "new york" album, its quality. some have said the animals are good ,i agree, but i hear they have recently been taken to task over their lyrics for "house of the rising sun". apparantly theres NOT a house in new orleans . ooer sorry about that one.

[Charlie]

no disrepect to moria, but ignore his post :heh: the new franz and oasis are both disappointing. on the indie-rock theme though, i'd also recommend be your own pet, yeah yeah yeahs, clap your hands say yeah, arcade fire and wolf parade.

A bit late for that now, as he'll already have read it when he reads yours :heh:

Are Arcade Fire and Wold Parade even real bands? :heh:

[dukkadukka]

stranger, the kt tunstall is average at best, you're better off just downloading the singles. i already said this on the first page, but you obviously don't read my posts *cries*


A bit late for that now, as he'll already have read it when he reads yours :heh:

Are Arcade Fire and Wold Parade even real bands? :heh:
yes they are, and better bands than oasis could ever hope to be :heh:

Big!

Death From Above 1979 are pretty good too.

If you like Dangerdoom check out Gnarles Barkley's (Cee-Lo and Dangermouse) "Crazy" I take it you heard Madvillan? (MF Doom and Madvillan) If not go do it as soon as.
i love dfa1979! madvillain i also like, i might check out gnarles barkley too, i've heard good things about cee-lo. madlib's solo stuff is amazing, especially mind fusion vol.1 & 2. i haven't really listened to it much but edan's "beauty and the beat" is worth checking out too. i'm glad that i'm not the only person in the world that likes indie hip-hop :)

[Haver]

Death Cab For Cutie
The Postal Service
Fall Out Boy

[Twozzok]

Hard-Fi.

Edit: e ;fb

in that case...

Hard-Fi
Le Tigre
Eels
The National
Modest Mouse
Goo Goo Dolls

[JonSt]

yes they are, and better bands than oasis could ever hope to be :heh:


I dont think you know what your talking about, from what ive heard of arcade fire, id rather listen to aqua and eiffel 65 and that aint a good thing.

[dukkadukka]

I dont think you know what your talking about
yes i do, i'm talking about my opinion :heh:

[Ramar]

Hard-Fi are awful.. some people never cease to amaze me.

[rizz]

I'm still pushing the Nightwish massive. I can send anyone ch00nage if they're interested.

Could you recommend an album? I downloaded Angels Fall First but from listening to the first couple of tracks her voice was just doing my head in with constant mad operatic vocals and such.

[JonSt]

yes i do, i'm talking about my opinion :heh:

Thank god its your opinion then.

[dukkadukka]

tom vek's we have sound is another album i'd recommend, kinda similar to the libertines and franz in the new-wavey sound, interpol are a little more challenging but they're definitely worth a listen.

[Wesley]

Wolf Parade.


Seriously sort this message length thing out.

[dukkadukka]

Wolf Parade.


Seriously sort this message length thing out.
i've already recommended them and been ridiculed for it by someone who's msot likely never listened to the album in full. "apologies..." is pretty great isn't it?

[Andrew]

Hard-Fi are awful.. some people never cease to amaze me.
I happen to like their British-ness and catchy tunes. And lets face it, they're a hundred times better than The Streets. ;)

[dukkadukka]

I happen to like their British-ness and catchy tunes. And lets face it, they're a hundred times better than The Streets. ;)
the streets' 'original pirate material' was brilliant! i can't deny the second album was shite beyond belief though.

[JonSt]

The streets are a disgrace to music, how someone can call this music is disgraceful, it requires no talent in order to write and is just some muppet speaking over music.

[dukkadukka]

he produces his own music aswell, i think you'll find that a lot more talent than you're willing to recognise is required to write and produce a full-length album.

[JonSt]

A full length album nowadays is like 10 songs. Producing isnt difficult if you know what your doing.

[EEVILMURRAY]

Could you recommend an album? I downloaded Angels Fall First but from listening to the first couple of tracks her voice was just doing my head in with constant mad operatic vocals and such.

I just got "Highest Hopes" which is "The Best Of Nightwish". A nice selection.

[dukkadukka]

i'd like to see you try.

[Ramar]

I whole heartidly agree. The freaking chav just spoke to some crap 'beats'. Hardly entertaining, I could stand on stage get someone to produce some music on a computer and then speak about my day or rubbish he dribbles about.

[JonSt]

The man speaks the truth.

dukkadukka, i dont need to try having already done it a couple of times, using way less advanced equipment than he uses.

[dukkadukka]

dukkadukka, i dont need to try having already done it a couple of times, using way less advanced equipment than he uses.
so which year was it that you were nominated for the mercury music prize?

you may not see the merits in his music but you should at least recognise that other people can.


baaaack on topic, stranger, it's a bit of a long shot but i'd recommend animal collective's albums "feels" and "sung tongs". they're quite eccentric but have a pop sensibility too; if you like the flaming lips there's a chance you'll enjoy animal collective too.

[JonSt]

The man speaks the truth.

dukkadukka, i dont need to try having already done it a couple of times, using way less advanced equipment than he uses.

I was nominated in 2002, anyway mercury music prize mean fuck all, dizzee rascal one it for gods sake.

[dukkadukka]

lol it looks like we're just going in circles now, i think we should probably just end this little discussion :)

dunno if i've recommended them yet but goldfrapp are awesome!

[JonSt]

lol it looks like we're just going in circles now, i think we should probably just end this little discussion :)

Yeah Cee-Lo is that piff! I thinks I prefer him as an MC though Goodie Mob's Soul Food is a classic, he's also cool on OutKast features; 'Liberation' (<-possibly my favourite tune of all time) and 'git up, get out' he also did a cool track with DJ Muggs of Cypress Hill, can't remember the name tho.

Madlib needs to cut down on getting high and claim the mainstream success he deserves. I haven't heard much edan but i'll keep an ear out for him.

The Wu have released something new; Wu-Tang Meets The Indie Culture. I only know a few artists from the tracklist but from what I've heard so far it's pretty good. :hehe:

EDIT:

Cee-Lo and Danger Mouse aka Gnarls Barkley

http://www.spinemagazine.com/music/october/gnarlsbarkley/crazy.mp3

[Link]

I don't know if anyone mentioned them, but THE USED are a really good band. I also think The Bloodhound Gang have some amazingly funny lyrics. Finally I saw FALL OUT BOY at the Nintendo Fusion Tour and they're great!

[dukkadukka]

EDIT:

Cee-Lo and Danger Mouse aka Gnarls Barkley

http://www.spinemagazine.com/music/october/gnarlsbarkley/crazy.mp3
:shock: thankyou sooo much, i love this song!
