Recommend me something, bitches.

[Samus Aran]

I need some new shit other than the CDs I'm getting for my birthday. If you feel I should expand my tastes, go for something that I don't generally listen to. If you have more of what I enjoy, send it my way. Recommend me any song, artist, album, etc. I dare you.

Lately, I've mostly been listening to:

Bob Dylan
Blackfield
Electric Light Orchestra
Led Zeppelin (as always)
Metallica
Dream Theater
Modest Mouse
Warren Zevon

Note that this is just an approximation of a few days. Obviously I've listened to more, but those are my top artists from like the past week. You can use that as a guide if you're going to recommend something similar. And of course you can always use my last.fm page for ideas, http://last.fm/user/kaaaaz.

Feel free to listen to something that I don't even normally listen to, though.

Cool stuff. I'm digging this Pinback. Not amazing, but good. The soft vocals kind of remind me of The Stone Roses...though of course that's the only resemblance they really bear with TSR.

They lack an "oomph" shall we say. But good, nevertheless. Thanks.

Devin Townsend. It's all you'll ever need. Try Synchestra, great ass album. That song I showed you just shows off the awesome emotion he puts into his vocals, not their best song but a great one.

listen to MGMT.

[Meyer Lansky]

M83's Saturdays = Youth.

[Daddy]

Before the Dawn Heals us is better than their new album.

Also blonde redhead's 23 or misery is a butterfly.

Cool stuff. I looked up the Terria album and I like the sound of it...being atmospheric progressive metal and such. I'll look more into this.

[Samus Aran]

listen to MGMT.

I'm trying, and I can sort of see myself liking them eventually, but right now they're falling short.
