Ween's album The Mollusk has a nautical theme to the whole album She Wanted to Leave https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zd5vQWYjUxs The lyrics are interesting with this one. At first it sounds like some men come take a man's woman from him while they're at sea. But I think it's about a man who kidnaps a woman a when she was a child, and doesn't understand now how she can just leave when rescuers come aboard the ship.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. Mastodon would be perfect if it wasn't so heavy. Obviously there's a scene for that, but it's not my kind of scene haha. I can handle Giant Squid though. I'm enjoying Ween. They have quite a bit of variety in their sound. Dirty Three might be my new reading music. Sounds great.

I'm looking for bands in the vein of Dear Hunter, in the sense that they're progressive indie or sounds like that, I don't know how to describe it but here is a sample of what I'm talking about : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0K2pxn62B0 Thanks in advance guys.

They swing between heavy and softly melodic so you may need to explore their albums to match the sound you like, but they're enjoyable. That's actually an understatement in my opinion. They're one of my all time favorite bands. Manchester Orchestra: Simple Math Wolves At Night Where Have You Been? Tony The Tiger The lead singer in Manchester Orchestra actually sang in and produced The Dear Hunter - Deny It All.

Hammerfall, Edguy, Gamma Ray, Iron Savior, maybe Sabaton? There's seriously like a million power metal bands from Germany and Sweden alone so there's really no shortage, I just dunno what you're already familiar with or what in particular about Freedom Call grabs you. Dragonforce explicitly cast themselves as a contrast to the predominant trends in power metal at the time ("boring mid-tempo power metal"), so you should have a lot of options https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-mQ9hXXGdQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-y3CMlvrkN0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSDsYmZREwo

Am looking for something similar to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6PLPRgQ3O0, or (I think) synth pop / new wave / dark wave with female, hoarse sounding vocalists and quick tempo. I already know of (and listen to) Ladytron and Ladyhawke - what else could you recommend? edit: vvv thanks for the recommendations, but anything more synth? Sorry if I'm being too obtuse - just the song by the New Young Pony Club clicked with me, and am trying to specify what makes it. Same with some songs by Ladytron. canis minor fucked around with this message at 03:56 on Jan 18, 2014 |

I love rap over different beats. Most popular example I can think of is the Jay-Z/Linkin Park release from a few years ago. I didn't look into trying to find stuff similar until recently and found: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c90w77hmaa8 which is TI - Bring Em Out over Edward Sharpe - Home which I love knowing both original songs and never imagining they'd work together. I'm looking for more artists or just released remixes which flips genres(I guess is best to explain).

You are looking for a type of music called a mashup (which I guess counts as it's own genre). The Grey Album by Danger Mouse, Wugazi, and Q-Tipokratiya are the only mashups I find interesting enough to listen to more than once. Also Girl Talk as alnilam mentioned (not my taste but very popular).

Also, not exactly the same, but check out Us3 for some jazz'n'hiphop. The only album i know is Hand on the Torch, but I like it a lot. Also the Dre/Snoop crew sometimes raps over Parliament/Funkadelic beats, but more frequently they scatter Pfunk samples along with a separate beat, as far as I know

I'm looking for electronic music with metrically ambiguous rhythms. By that I mean music that sounds like the emphasis is on one part of the bar, but actually is somewhere else. (This isn't the same thing as having a weird time signature, btw.) Here's an example from pop music. Everyone knows In the Air Tonight, but the beat is ambiguous; if you try listening to it, counting right from the start, you'll find it difficult to come in when Phil does, on the right beat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Mt0ee9FraQ I'll try any sort of electronic music with this characteristic (it's for research more than pleasure), but I especially like stuff in the Warp/Clark/Nathan Fake/James Holden/Jon Hopkins vein.

Looking for a few things as I'm currently back in a phase where I like wanky instrumental stuff. More solo bass players I'm a bassist so I'm always a sucker for this. I've got most of the big names--Stanley Clarke, Les Claypool, Marcus Miller, Jaco Pastorius, Stuart Hamm, getting around to Victor Wooten eventually (is it a shame that I've never listened to him after playing for 8 years?). Any albums that are worth listening to? Jazz Fusion Already have Al di Meola, Billy Cobham, Brand X, Frank Zappa, Mahavishnu Orchestra/John McLaughlin, Weather Report, Herbie Hancock and Bitches Brew-era Miles Davis. My favorite of this is Mahavishnu. Instrumental guitar that isn't super-cheesy My problem with shred guitar is less that it's "soulless" and more that most of the well-known albums in this genre are very much a product of their era. I'm looking at you in particular, Yngwie. Any good instrumental guitar albums that don't feel extremely late 80s/early 90s? Already have Eric Johnson's Ah Via Musicom (which isn't totally exempt from this problem). Same with Satriani, and I'm looking into Jason Becker/Marty Friedman/Cacophony and Michael Schenker (whose playing I adore in UFO).

Hey guys, I'm looking for some music that I will probably have a hard time describing, but basically solemn christian worship music. So like, blues/jazzy stuff I guess. Some worship music that I can vibe to that isn't the crappy pop-rock, pop-country, guy doing guitar solos to Our God is an Awesome God type stuff. Something musically along the lines of: Aloe Blacc, Sarag Vaughan, Nina Simone Even more 'modern' sounding stuff like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbKlET_cFZQ (Just maybe not so churchy sounding with the backup choir) I know I just described a pretty wide variety of musical styles, but I'm hoping someone gets the idea and can point me in the right direction. Thanks!

I think mine is pretty simple. I just saw the movie Ray for the first time, and I really want to get a couple of his album's, but don't know where to start. Every greatest hits album on Amazon seems like it has completely different songs. I'd love a suggestion of one solid greatest hits album and an overall album that might be considered one of his strongest. If the two overlap, I'd be willing to substitute the greatest hits album with an album you may feel is underrated. Thanks in advance.

The Mountain Goats have an album called The Life of the World to Come in which every track is named after and inspired by specific verses in the Bible. It's not worship music and they're not all explicitly religious, but if you know your scriptures you should be able to get a lot out it; Think of them as like short stories with a biblical core. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2se_8rxdmWU

I didn't realize Focus were so highly regarded outside of "Hocus Pocus," but I'm looking forward to delving into their material. I have never heard of The Tony Williams Lifetime but anything with John McLaughlin AND Jack Bruce has to be good. Thanks a lot.

Henchman of Santa posted:I've listened to Population Override, which I thought was pretty good, and a couple of his songs with Claypool in that supergroup. What albums would you say are the most consistently good? It's such a ridiculous discography. Elephant Man's Alarm Clock is my favourite, and probably the only one I listen to in full regularly (besides Electric Sea, which is an acoustic album). Inbred Mountain is all right, It's Alive is pretty decent. I really don't know what else to recommend though because there's usually a pretty equal ratio of great:stinkers in every album.
