Reccomendation thread

~~AquaParade~~ · 04-15-2008, 10:05 PM

Hey mods, wonder if we could sticky these if it does well enough after a few weeks...I think it'd be cool to have a straight up reccomendation thread, but to keep it from becoming just a bunch of people posting they're favorite bands...maybe we could list 5-10 bands we like or are into at the time, and people could respond off those and reccomend some other music they'd probably enjoy...anyone up for it?

Here...top 5 lately...

Fear Before the March of Flames
The Format
Clould Cult
Bright eyes(love the lyrics)
Between the Buried and Me....
also any real feel good music, even if its poppy and simple, something that just lightens your mood...any ideas based off those?

Anyone searching for a really dark mix of rock, jazz, indie, metal and pop?

Check out Khoma.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAJdUt6H_Fs

And I will keep talking about Cult of Luna.. They are the masters of weird, sad music with some intelligence to it.

Khoma is pretty neat. Thanks...Couldnt help but laugh at the "burning bridges" part though, just cause me and my friends joke how it's one of the most overused lines in song history...this song is good though.

I would also recommend:
Jeff Buckley
Coheed & Cambria
Alexisonfire
The Pax Cecilia
Alkaline Trio
Damiera

Haha, yeah, I never thought of that..

The coolest part of Medea is that riff right before the chorus..

Also, the two guitarists are also guitarists in another band called Cult of Luna that I've surely never mentioned before..

Ok guys...I cant get enough of...Fear Before the March of Flames. I love this band...everyone seriously go listen to them and report back to this thread! Make sure what you listen to is off the cd "The always open mouth" though. It's a lot different from the others, and the best and most original in my opinion.

Alllrighty. Let's see:

- Gorillaz/Blur/The Good, The Bad, The Queen. All involve a certain man named Damon Albarn, so I grouped them together. Note that they are in bold for high recommendation levels.
- Red Hot Chilli Peppers.
- Eskimo Joe (A friend hooked me up with some of their songs a little while ago).
- Weezer.
- Foo Fighters.
- Silverchair.
- Powderfinger.

Yeah...that should cover it for now...
