Current mood:

curious

new tunes


Anybody heard any good music lately? I'm getting really bored with my MP3 collection. I like most everything, except hip-hop/rap.

Some of my favorite music --- U2, Radiohead, Coldplay, Doves (not as well known, but they're really good,) Interpol (same for them,) Travis, Elliott Smith, The Shins (I'm listening to them now,) The White Stripes, The Strokes, Belle & Sebastian, Blur, and then a lot of classic rock and some classical. I love love love music, I'm so obsessed --- I hope you find something you like in the above bands, though! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	i'm already a U2 fan... but i'll check out some of those other bands and get back to ya. what kind of music are they? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Basically they're all alternative rock or indie rock, but let's see... Radiohead --- very powerful, very beautiful, very melancholy (often even sort of desperate) and sometimes quite bizarre rock. I adore them. Get OK Computer (an album) because nobody can be without that and listen to it a few times, as it's the sort of music that really grows on you. Coldplay --- a lot like U2. I'm sure you've heard their stuff before, but both albums (Parachutes and Rush of Blood to the Head) are really good. Doves --- more alternative/indie rock, I guess. Lost Souls is a great album. Interpol --- indie rock. The album is called Turn On the Bright Lights. Travis --- indie rock. Sort of in the U2/Radiohead/Coldplay group. Beautiful melodies on the album The Invisible Band. Elliott Smith --- indie singer/songwriter with some of the most beautifully sad songs I've ever heard. The Shins --- cheerful indie rock. White Stripes --- another of those "will save rock" bands, but they're really good. The Strokes --- from NYC like Interpol, but less artsy. They're good, though, especially in their first album Is This It. Belle & Sebastian --- quirky indie rock from Scotland. It's really cheerful, relaxing, and funny (lyrics are pretty original.) Blur --- britpop, really, but I like them. Anyways, sorry if my descriptions weren't really so good --- but you must must must check out at least Radiohead and Coldplay! Haha. I hope you enjoy the music --- I can recommend the best songs to start for for the different artists if you'd like as well! See you~ From, Susanna (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
