I'd like to see your taste in music, so please tell me what is your all-time favourite band. You may only choose one, so choose carefully.
Personally, I just love Linkin Park.

Nadja, because I'm a fucked up depressing hipster.

Not really though, I listen to a l ot of mainstream stuff but those two can make some rather... dense and atmospheric music. Check them out if you're into drone metal or post rock.

The National.

And not because of "Exile Vilify" (in fact, I think it's one of the few songs I don't quite like by them).

I don't know a ton about him but my boyfriend absolutely worships him and I love Juular.

well you should give him an oportunity, get to Ki, Addicted, Ziltoid iff you like Juular that much, he is worth the time trying to love his music :)

consider how there are many different genres of metal, you are missing out quite a lot matey.

Why explore metal when you can completely write it off instead? ;)

Although there's some neat stuff in that list, I think it's all too jarring for people with dislike of metal. I think something like Alcest is a better entry-level recommendation.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

you read my mind there, I was considering Souvenirs... too, but i'd rather to have a clear & definitive borders between genres whenever i'm making introductions, thus links to different bands of their respective genres. Or if i want to introduce the blackgaze, i prefer to link bands that are on the harsher side a la Fen and Lantlos, as i think Alcest is too mellow sometime. Not a bad thing though.

'Bands' kind of limits the range of choice.

Fuck yea! Spacemen 3 is the shit. Very surprised to see that here. I'm actually seeing Spiritualized next week. If you don't know, Sonic Boom, Spacemen 3, and Spiritualized all have some of the same members.

yeah Haven't seen spiritualized live though :(
Underground Youth were playing but I missed them too :P
Check out the KVB and Underground Youth if you don't know them. True Widow are ok too.

I've listened to Underground Youth via last.fm, but haven't heard the other two. I'll check them out. I think you'd like a local band from around me called Brujas del Sol. All their music is free. Also, check this out. I think you'll love it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0gjwpMb-k8

hehe, They are like a turkish version of Aphrodite's Child (sort of). Pretty good :)
I used to listen to a lot of 70s stuff back in the day: Donovan, Aphrodite's Child, Nirvana (UK), Ravi Shankar, Gandalf, It's a Beautiful Day, Beach Boys etc

I haven't listened to that band in a long time, I almost got to see them live once back in December 2008 but bad weather prevented me from going.

Check out their newest Album "The Power Within". They have a new singer, but oh my God is he on par with ZP. The songs are shorter, averaging around 5 minutes instead of 7, but they're still amazing. "Seasons", from this album, is probably tied with "Soldiers of the Wasteland" from Sonic Firestorm for my favorite DF Song
