ShadowMoo posted:Looking for albums with dark/post-apocalyptic themes similar to Welcome Oblivion - HTDA and Year Zero - NIN mostly looking for some kind of rock or electronic with overarching stories. Most Current 93 albums tell a loose narrative about a personal experience of sin and falling away from God that is linked with universal apocalyptic imagery. The most rock releases are Aleph at Hallucinatory Mountain and the Lucifer Over London ep. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAGoWH_FX-o LordPants posted:I really love The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld. What else is good like that? You'll like U.F.Orb too, and some of the singles released around then have nice alternate mixes. Also check out their sister band The KLF/The Jams, especially the album Chill Out. Jimmy Cauty of KLF has an album released under his own name called Space that is also very good and in the same vein. Chill Out and The Orb's Adventures together for me are just perfect, eternal take to the grave music. The first two Biosphere albums, Microgravity and Patashnik are really good and somewhat similar in sound, as is Every Man and Woman is a Star by Ultramarine [ed: originally wrote Ultraworld here]. (Connections: Rickie Lee Jones's voice appears on both Aleph at Hallucinatory Mountain and The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld.)

EDIT: Upon reflection and further exploration, I have discovered that the answer to my original question is this thread. The OP even uses the phrase "wall of sound"', which is what I'd come up with on my own to describe these songs. I'd always assumed shoegaze=electronica, but that was obviously wrong. Anyway, I'm happy to finally have a word for the thing I like! An NMD success story pig slut lisa fucked around with this message at 05:34 on Jul 11, 2013 |

I was recently getting into rather aggressive or purely instrumental 'early-sounding' electronica lately, e.g. Perturbator or Nightcall by Kavinsky. Does anyone know anything kinda similar to this (not sountrack to Hotline Miami - I've already heard that)

To the guy asking about worker's lament type stuff: try some Billy Bragg, especially his stuff from the 80's when he was dealing with Margaret Thatcher's stupid rear end. A request from me: I enjoyed DJ Shadow's ...Endtroducing. Recommendations?

# ? Jul 12, 2013 05:18 |

Some stuff I was recommended in this very thread: J Dilla - Donuts RJD2 - Deadringer Blockhead - Music By Cavelight None of them are exactly like Endtroducing but the first two are heavily sample based and you should find something to enjoy in all of them.

After listening to Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Ensemble, I've had a craving for some traditional African and Asian folk music. I don't really care what region the music comes from, though some Mongolian throat-singing would be pretty cool. I'd also prefer vocal songs to purely instrumental ones.

I haven't listened to much African folk outside of Mali, but as far as that goes, you can't go wrong with Ali Farka Touré and Toumani Diabaté. Touré plays guitar with a nice bluesy influence. Diabaté's a master of the kora, which is a big old harp-thing. Anyway, check out Ali Farka Touré's self-titled and Toumani Diabaté's "Boulevard de l'indépendance". Both are solid albums. Chieko Mori's "Jumping Rabbit" and Goro Yamaguchi's "A Bell Ringing in an Empty Sky" are good if you want Japanese folk.

The new(ish) Fall Out Boy album has had me searching back into the depths of the mid-late 90s, and I've spent the past week or so listening to all the old Green Day, New Found Glory and The Offspring stuff I had totally forgotten about. Apart from FOB and the 2011 Blink-182 album, I haven't really heard much from that pop-punk sort of area in the past few years. It's really cool feeling like I'm 10 again, so I'm looking for more. What have I missed from the past few years?

The new Captain, We're Sinking album is pretty spectacular pop-punk, and I normally hate that genre.

Okay, this might be a little on the weird side, but can anyone tell me the most godawful, lovely, discordant polka you know of? The bottom of the barrel, since to my ears most of it is bad. I really feel like annoying my sister after she blasted J and K-pop at me for the duration of a long car ride. Guess who's driving next time.

So I am in a summer music class and I have an assignment to listen to some modern (within the last 10 years or so) ragtime music. Does anyone have any recommendations for this kind of thing? I don't think I had ever actually heard any ragtime before this class.

Guess who's driving next time. You could go hard as gently caress and just google the worst song ever. It's like 13 minutes of random bullshit including opera-rapping, annoying kid's choruses shouting political slogans, and some parts with megaphones. Also, everybody hates Sunn. I recommend Aghartha or Decay2 (I think that's what it's called, it's off of White2 anyways.) Pogobubba posted:MATH ROCK The only band that's really that close to your exact request is Ghosts and Vodka. I guess. At least this is :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9SmQGGBhGc Most of their stuff doesn't really seem to match up to that song in terms of quality or energy (a lot of their other stuff seems to be real laid back and/or acoustic) but it doesn't matter because that's the best song ever. Barky and Don Caballero are both great. I swear, math rock drummers are literally always amazing. I haven't heard one math-rock band with a lame drummer.

Music, which was the best hip-hop album of 2012. His solo work is excellent (check out Fantastic Damage for starters). The one album that his group Company Flow did (Funcrusher Plus) is also excellent. And he produced The Cold Vein by Cannibal Ox which, unsurprisingly, is excellent. Yessss, thank you so much. All of these are just what I'm looking for.

Whatever, maybe you'll like them. Or maybe DDMMYYY (math rock band names are stupid!!) Chll Pll and other various Zach Hill projects might be something you're interested in, but they get a little more "out there" than the stuff you've posted. Lastly, Zu. They're very heavy, very dissonant, and definitely syncopated. Also the sax + distorted bass combo is just so loving cool. that song actually ends like halfway through the video fyi
