New Music Please!

Mish

Hello,

I am desperately in need of new music! This week i have been mostly listening to; Queen Adreena, Panic at the Disco, the soundtrack on Burnout Revenge.
Can anyone recommend anything i might like? Preferably something that puts you in a good mood as i have enough music to slit your wrists by from my angsty teenage years.

Well I haven't listened to it yet.. but the White Stripes just came out with a new album. Might not put you in a "good" mood, but it's probably not depressing like Panic at the Disco or whatever lousy emo band.

Re: nholder

I'll second LCD Soundsystem.

Also, UNKLE. The new album is wonderful.

see i linked to music player because I find that just recommending names does nothing (at least for me)

you have to give me music for me to know if I like it or not

horrible acts can have great names and vice versa so its hard to will yourself to go find music about these people of your own effort

on that note

hype machine is great

I've been really digging the Fratellis lately thanks to Raijin.

All Canadian indie for free basically. runs the gamut of genre so I'm sure you'll find something you like.

I would recommend looking at:

The Awkward Stage
Arcs
Kill the Lights
The Wooden Stars


Also the Podcast which plays the best of the music and gives you some history on them.

Obligatory pandora.com reference.

Bryse Eayo

Unfortunatly Pandora can no longer be accessed outside of the US so it's alittle more useless now.

Godsmack, IV

Nonpoint

and if you listen to the lyrics, pullchain

I don't know if you do this already, but you should listen to Weezer's Blue and Pinkerton albums.
Don't bother with their other stuff, it just doesn't hold enough clout.

Music is extremely personal, how the heck does it "hold clout"? No context.

This is a great list, and the player is pretty sweet.

I would also suggest listening to (on the same player at the above link):

Andrew Bird
Blonde Redhead
Cornelius
Explosions in the Sky
Justice
Ratatat
Silversun Pickups
Sparklehorse

And also, gonna second Girl Talk because that shit is just so awesome.

As for stuff that isn't on that list, check out Dan Deacon, Deerhunter and Battles (the new Battles album is really good).

Deusfaux

justice shoulda been on there, that was my "to see list" for coachella

didnt catch all of it but pretty much saw all the big important ones

Scooter

The one band that I like that no one else knows about (no point in naming bands you've heard yourself) is The Gaskets. I think they've got some stuff out for download, look for stuff from their first CD especially.

Funny guys.

GrimReaper

No Gomez mention?

For shame.

By the way, Gomez.

basino

Bloc Party is the best band out there right now IMO. I've been listening to their two discs for what seems like forever.

Omnimon

New as in new to you, or as in <new> to everyone?

If new to you, and you want something upbeat I highly recommend delving back into the mid-late 90s pop-punk/pop-ska stuffs.

Anti-Flag
Less Than Jake
Skankin' Pickle
Bruce Lee Band
Goldfinger
Mighty Mighty Bosstones
MxPx
NoFX
The Descendents
Millencolin
Me First and the Gimme Gimmes
Lagwagon
Screeching Weasel
etc etc

If you like Queen Adreena, then you should really check out Daisy Chainsaw that used to be KatieJane's and Crispin's old band.

My off kilter suggestions would be that some of QAs early stuff sounds a bit like Miranda Sex Garden (although MSG tend to be all over the place when it comes to musical style, Fairy Tales of Slavery is a good starting point).

Mish

Thanks guys!
I've got sooo much music to listen to this weekend now!
I actually went out to see some local metal/ska bands last night which were pretty good. "The JB Conspiracy" were headlining and also worth a mention were "My own religion".
I'll let you know if i find anything really superb on my continuing quest.

Are you going to Pitchfork? Because all of them are playing.

I'm really psyched to see Dan Deacon, and New Pornographers are playing too.

Hell, Thurston Moore and Yoko Ono are going to do a song together.

It's going to be awesome.

Vlad McRad

Nothing puts me in a better mood then Death From Above 1979

AbsoluteZero

If you like The Smashing Pumpkins at all, they have a new album coming out on the 10th I think. The tracks I've heard sound good so far.

Man I would love to go but I just can't afford it (plus I think it's semi-sold out right now). Battles came to Atlanta last friday and Deerhunter is from Atlanta so they are here all the time. Dan Deacon and Girl Talk will be here together on Sept 22nd. It's like Pitchfork is coming to me!

Unfortunately no Slint, Sonic Youth or Gza =(

Who am I kidding, I'm terribly jealous >_<

Ziac45

I'll suggest some

Mat Kearney And
Mute Math Are good and not a kinda cut yourself or any emo thing like that.

Snork

just listen to the decemberists
