Recommend some music

[xfrancox]

So I thought this would be a cool idea. Recommend some music that you really like. I thought of some things you should post to keep this organized, and informative.

Name of band
Style of music
Link to a song (http://www.singingfish.com is a really good site to get a link to a song)
And then any info youd like to throw in

Some things I really want to stay away from...
Bashing other peoples tastes or a band. If you dont like it, dont listen again and move on. No one is going to care that you hate so and so.

So, Ill start this off.

Amon Tobin
Elecronic Drum/Bass style
http://web.mac.com/xfrancox/iWeb/Franco%20Colon/Me_files/02%20Ruthless.mp3
He did the entire soundtrack to Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory which is what this song is from. Its amazing stuff.

and

Minus The Bear
Indie Rock

As you all know, I'm a massive Metallica fan:

Those of you that do not listen to them much and are looking for some interesting yet defining music, here are some choices:

"Harvester of Sorrow"- 1987 "...And Justice for All"
"Orion"-1985 "Master of Puppets"
"Whiplash"- 1983 "Kill Em All"

Aside from that:

Breaking Benjamin
Rock/Metal
http://hollywoodrecords.go.com/breakingbenjamin/
First Album "Saturate" features the single "Polyamourus" which as played on the game "Run like Hell"
Second Album "We are not Alone" debut single "So Cold" took the band to high popularity as the single soared to the top of the Rock Single Charts.
The band also was featured on the "Halo 2" soundtrack with the Hit Single "Blow Me Away"

[Tron]

Modest Mouse - All CD's Not Titled "Good News for People who like Bad News"
Album of Choice: This is long drive with someone with nothing to talk about
Songs: ALL
Genre: Indie

metallica - and justice for all (ones perfect while playing a war game online)

I couldnt see myself playing "One" to a war game as the first 5 min are not up to my tempo. This is the first song I ever learned on drums when I was 9 and I reciently finished learning Kirk's Solo. Very hard...

[xfrancox]

[xfrancox]

thanks to everyone who has been responding with tons of recommendations. only thing i wanted to say is if its possible to link to more actual songs or sites with songs a click away. Its easy to put a huge list of bands but honestly, most people are too lazy to go searching for the songs. itd be cool to be able to come here and listen to new music with just a few clicks and no internet searching. just a thought....

[scoobydiesel]

i dont know all the stuff to these bands i just know i like them and you should look them up

Dredg(indie house rock?)
Headautomatic(popish emoish stuff?)
Get Set Go( i think they say they are powerpop?)

i dont know gens or nothing, all 3 can be found on myspace(and on my friends list)

Maybe try www.amazon.com sometimes they have it so you can listen to songs off of an album before you buy it. I would honestly just recommend the bands home pages for getting an idea of the music. Ill go back and edit my post with all the bands home pages.

http://www.street-dogs.com/
If you like dropkick you'll like street dogs, not as much Irish influence, but the lead singer (Mike) was the original lead singer of Dropkick (Do or die album), there is also a member of the older band the Might Mighty Bosstones in this group. Check them out.

Flogging Molly is great they are more folk influenced the Dropkick, but they are just as hard

http://www.horrorpops.com/
Great rockabilly band. Hung out with their manager in Kansas one, real cool guy. Great band


there are some good bands. I'd post songs, but they all have to many great songs to try and pick one.

[xfrancox]

I love this band

Muse
Rock
http://boulamyt.free.fr/Musique/Muse%20-%2005%20-%20Stockholm%20Syndrome.mp3
I know these guys are from overseas, are they pretty popular over there?

also

Seventh Star
Hardcore
http://www.facedownrecords.com/video-ss-the-ss.html
A really good friend of mine plays guitar for this band, so check em out if youre into this kind of music.

[Minty]

Muse are big over here. My local band. Matt is a mate of a mate, party with them on a regular basis.

New song is quite different from their normal stuff, as is the rest of the album. well worth a listen too tho

[snafegeeza]

I would like to reccomend some music to you. This is for dance music fans which is probably a small portion of the forum. Its called "niche" music. This is also known as "underground house" and "speed garage" but I love this music. Its really bassey and will get you dancing.

This music is from a night club in sheffield called Niche (suprisingly). The club is pretty rough and its always full of madheads pilling their tits off. Its pretty rare stuff and its great music.

If you have a music downloader ie kazaa, limewire, 360share ect. Just type in niche and it will bring up a fair list. Theres alway lots of good remixes of recent songs too.

PS dont search for it if your emo because your not going to like it,;)

[DaveWilma07]

I recommend 'Pendulum', if you are into drum/bass. "Hold Your Colour" and "Streamline" are superb.

[MonkeeMan85]

hey if anyone will do me a favour go vote for my bands poster for our next tour

http://thecastofthousands.blogspot.com/

thanks :)

[xfrancox]

Im not sure who this is by, Nikkfurie?, but its the song in Ocean's Twelve that plays when that guy is dancing through the laser beams. Pretty good song.
Danceish Trip-Hop?

[Sarge McLarge]

I recommend 'Pendulum', if you are into drum/bass. "Hold Your Colour" and "Streamline" are superb.
Damn, last time I heard a Pendulum track was when I saw Bad Company (who opened for Dieselboy) a couple years ago in Denver and they dropped "Vault" when it was first released (still a white label), it was slammin to say the least.

[LongJon]

glad to see a couple DnB heads up in here

on that note im somehow not bored of 'Flava 4 raver - skibba,fearless,and det' great diving tune

[Minty]

spent today listeneing to the new LostPophets, Muse and Three Days Grace albums.

And shocked to say LP is the worst, although its still a quality album

Wait a second... are you downloading music? :p

[Webb]

This music is from a night club in sheffield called Niche (suprisingly). The club is pretty rough and its always full of madheads pilling their tits off. Its pretty rare stuff and its great music.

I thought that place got raided and closed down!!! I lived on the same road of it last year!

Haven't they moved venues to up by Plug now and have metal detectors on the doors for weapons? :eek:

[Minty]

Wait a second... are you downloading music? :p

actually i got a hardcopy of Muse about a week ago :p

[xfrancox]

Oh... Well I just downloaded it.. Haha. How did you manage that?

This cd is pretty awesome.

[snafegeeza]

Im pretty sure they re-opened it, someone got shot outside and now the bouncers all wear bullet proof vests. They did move it up to plug before it was called plug, it was called Zero. The last time I went was about 6 months ago and they made take my shoes and socks off, to check them, looked like a proper tit, pissed up wobbling about trying to put my socks and shoes back on.

I have only ever been twice to this hell hole of a place (not by my own choice) but they are experiences I will never forget. Ive never seen another place like it. But its damn good dancey music.

You heard some of the music?

[DaveWilma07]

Muse are big over here. My local band. Matt is a mate of a mate, party with them on a regular basis.

I agree, but thats what I like about Muse... every album sounds different. Cant wait for the album to be released.
