echinopsis posted:So this is a pretty generalised request question.. Theres a ton of cool 70s hard rock bands that never made it that big or have been left out of the classif rock radio playlists. Check out these dudes: Hawkwind (kind of like Pink Floyd, spacey and sloppy at times, but they have some good riffs and are pretty accessible) Eloy (see above, but not sloppy) Sir Lord Baltimore (heavy blues, like Sabbath but more rockin') Blue Cheer (loud, heavy and simple) Pink Fairies (see above, Hawkwinds drug dealers) The first couple King Crimson albums Wishbone Ash The Sonics (classic garage rock, think Louie Louie. Some garage rock made it on the radio, but it's largely forgotten, if you like it check out the Nuggets series) MC5 (big influence on punk, looooooud and fun, their second album is much much poppy and very good) The Stooges (see above but they got heavier and less radio friendly as they went along) The Doo Do Chasers fucked around with this message at 11:58 on Jul 27, 2011 |

^^ you might try other early punk acts: Deep Wound, early MC5, the Stooges, Bad Brains. poo poo, even the Ramones, Pistols, or Kennedys.echinopsis posted:Thanks man, that's a massive start! Doo Do nailed it. King Crimson got more and more rock oriented before the split in 1975, so you might venture beyond the first couple albums. "Red" was the final before said split, and is a masterpiece. Not Very Metal fucked around with this message at 17:09 on Jul 27, 2011 |

I'm a huge fan of MC5, the Ramones and the Dead Kennedys. I'm looking for something more rockabilly. And for once, less hardcore. Track examples: She Said http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_R9-84SmsRw Can your pussy do the dog http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYhAwkIbY4Y

RollingBoBo posted:I liked the two i didn't cross, thanks! Anything more in that vein? BTBAM has gone through a pretty huge sound shift in their career. Their first three albums are mostly grind/death metal/metalcore, then after that they turned into a prog metal band. I'm assuming because you also like Animals as Leaders that you are more into the proggier side of it. What specifically are you looking for/avoiding? Here's some more general modern metal/core with a prog bent. Periphery Cynic Ever Forthright The Faceless Rolo Tomassi Dillinger Escape Plan IWRESTLEDABEARONCE Out of all though, I'd say definitely check out Cynic and Ever Forthright. They're all great bands and you will begin to realize that metal is an incredibly broad genre of music. It's not all just people screaming into mics and doing arpeggios/harmonies.

If you like The Sonics, I would say avoid the Nuggets and Pebbles compilations as they will probably just bore you. The Seeds and 13th Floor Elevators are like the best bands on there. Instead, check out the Back From The Grave compilations that Crypt Records released in the late 80s/early 90s if you can track them down. I think there are eight volumes. It's mostly stuff from super obscure bands that were just as loud and raucous as The Sonics were but they cut only a single, or two, maybe, before calling it quits. Also w/r/t the dude asking for similar stuff to The Cramps, why the gently caress have none of you said The Gun Club?!? Get their first two albums, Fire Of Love and Miami. Kid Congo Powers played in both bands, and he has a new band (Kid Congo And The Pink Monkey Birds) who put out a record on In The Red this year that is great. Maybe try The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion? Brimstone Howl? Rocket From The Crypt? Flat Duo Jets? Johnny Thunders? If you're interested in rockabilly, get some Hasil Adkins. Edit: Here, have some YouTubes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoCFgVf6bAc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHhrvJTCEG0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OM8cUzAAfaI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjGUb8d0VEE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csEOGPlAxdg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kh5xhF1NiLc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbAmRwAdvCs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Nz9jR_AuLM Edit 2: Oh! loving duh, you might also like a lot of the '80s/'90s Garage revival poo poo, Billy Childish, The Mummies, Oblivians / Compulsive Gamblers / Reigning Sound, Supercharger, Gibson Bros, '68 Comeback, Bantam Rooster, The Rip-Offs, The Gories / The Dirtbombs, The Spaceshits, Les Sexareenos, M.O.T.O, Reatards, etc. Radio Spiricom fucked around with this message at 02:57 on Jul 28, 2011 |

I tried asking on the last page but I didn't get a response. I'm looking for psychedelic synthpop like Black Moth Super Rainbow. I already know of the members' solo work and their collab with the Octopus Project but I'm looking for more psychedelic music with analog synths, electric piano, mellotron, etc. it doesn't matter what period it's from or if it's something obvious I may have overlooked.

Darkmoon Warrior might fit the bill as well, but they're pretty whiny. If you like folk-based BM, check out Kampfar, as they're a bit symphonic as well.

I don't know how familiar you are with these bands, since they're relatively well known, but Yndi Halda, Mono (Hymn to the Immortal Wind), The Evpatoria Report (Golevka) and The Ascent of Everest (How Lonely Sits the City) all have a similar aesthetic to GY!BE. A Silver Mt. Zion as well, if you haven't heard of them already. Get a hold of the Mono & World's End Girlfriend collaboration Palmless Prayer/Mass Murder Refrain too. It plays on the Modern Classical sound that's present in Post-Rock more than the aforementioned bands tend to.

Past couple days I've been listening to jazz musicians like Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Thelonius Monk, Charlie Parker, Charles Mingus, etc. and my last.fm recs are starting to fill with other classic jazz artists. Previously I'd considered most jazz to be impressive-if-inaccessible music but it's really beginning to resonate with me. I figure last.fm's got me covered for all the classics. This has got me curious though- are there any must-know highlights in contemporary jazz? I am ignorant as all hell about this genre and don't have any clue how to find new jazz to listen to beyond following last.fm.

If you can find any local or semilocal venues, check them out! Jazz is often much better live! I know how you feel though, finding names isn't easy. A general tip is to look up the members of whatever band you are listening to and check if they are playing in other constellations (hint: Most of them are). Here are a few names I like: One of the best bands in Denmark: Ibrahim Electric:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq_8_bUceoQ&feature=related A bit of an acid Doors-like sound by a Guitar/Hammond/Drums trio Another semidanish trio: Phronesis: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ly8KniNgkXo Bass/Drums/Piano. I don't really know what to say except that the bass player is amazing. And lastly a great international name: Medeski/Martin/Wood: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6ygZ4_1d3A Another trio: Keyboards (of all sorts)/Bass/Drums. They do a lot of different stuff, so shop around!

(As a side note, if anyone knows where I can get it legally in the UK without it costing an arm and a leg it'd be great.) I tried Last FM but it's results were all based on her time as a J-pop star. I already have a Rat Pack album but I'd prefer female singers, cute accent optional.

I am just starting to get into rap / hip hop and the style of their 2011 album specifically is something I really enjoy. I guess what makes cunninlyguists kinda interesting is that they are a southern group operating in the east coast underground tradition. there are number of other groups that have that similar backgrounds and philosophies. for example, you could compare kno to say 9th wonder or the are or khyrsis or s1 etc. since that is dating myself a little bit, you might look to big krit or freddie gibbs (although not a southerner) as examples today. and i guess more traditional southern influences are also worth checking out so at the least goodie mobb and outkast. However, if you are just getting into hip hop i would listen to the east coast roots in the native tongues and such as ultimately only east coast rap is what matters. plogo fucked around with this message at 06:42 on Aug 3, 2011 |
