Paolo Nutini :)

Gazpacho.

i'm rediscovering ( if this also counts) the 70s and 80s music, the Smiths, The Cure, AC/DC, The Clash, Simple Minds, Aerosmith, R.E.M...etc.

 

i'm proud of the fact that i know them since a long time now except some AC/DC songs.

The Smiths. :heart:

 

I've also just recently started listening to some music by R.E.M. A friend actually recommended them. :)

yeah REM have epic songs, Losing My Religion and Everybody Hurts are absolutely amazing!

Unkle Bob.

 

Actually 'discovered' them in 2006 when they were the support act at a gig I went to, but I only got their album the other week...and it's genius :thumbsup: Love it.

Buddy Holly. it seems that when I like a band, I look at their influences, and the influences of those artists, and so on. I've worked my way back to Buddy Holly, through The Beatles, and I'm likin it. Although no one can believe that I listen to buddy holly.

ooooh and Dire Straits. I love Money for Nothing :dance:

I love Buddy Holly. One of the most influential and pioneering rock n rollers of all time.

I want to get into new music.

I have a list of bands/musicians that I want to get into.

It's more of a re-discovery...Maroon 5.

 

I loved them a lot when their first album came out. Now I love them again.

please please please tell me you know that this is a cover?

 

I like the Killer's version and all but I hate it when all these fans think that it's The Killer's song.

 

ooops yea i didnt know it was a cover, but thanks for telling me. I dont listen much to the killers to consider myself a "fan" but im beginning to like some of their songs. they're cool

:cheesy:

 

I LOVE those guys. :nice:

 

Anyway. My turn.

 

-The Drums

It's good stuff. Julie had said they were like an indie version of the Beach Boys. Although I don't necessarily agree with that comparison as a whole [When I think Beach Boys, I think of music chockful of vocal harmonies], I can see where she's coming from. I can't wait for their debut LP to come out. The EP will have to do until then, I suppose.

 

-Civil Twilight

Thank you , Christa, for enlightening me. Their music is really pretty stuff; I love piano. :wacky:

 

-Midlake

I haven't quite made it all the way through "The Courage of Others," but MY GOD. That album is AMAZING. No, seriously, it's great stuff. If you like stuff like Fleet Foxes and Goldheart Assembly, listen to Midlake. PLEASE. I'm proud to say they hail from the same state as me. :nice:

 

-Broken Social Scene

I haven't gotten into their stuff extensively yet; I'm really into Midlake at the moment. However, I love what I've heard. I'm sure that under the insistence of Briggins and Mike, I shall get there within due time. :P

 

-Frightened Rabbit

I have a feeling there'll be times when the singer's voice will take some getting used to. However, the background music is awesome, so I'm willing to do that. If I can get over Win Butler's voice in "Crown of Love" [which I hated for FOREVER], I can get over anything I put my mind to. :laugh4: :P :)

 

-Paolo Nutini

Yay. He sings and plays sexy Scottish reggae. :laugh4: But seriously, a lot of it has soul elements in there and whatnot, and it's really happy music. He's someone else I'm really hooked on ATM. :)

 

Oh, and I'd like to take this opportunity to promote Mike (the_gloaming09) and his EP, because I like it. :nice:

^ I need to check Broken Social Scene out too ! And that EP from "the_gloaming09" too, I'm curious. :)

 

Anyway, I just discovered Caribou and I love it ! It's just too good ... :bomb:

Young Marble Giants. :wacky:

more like a re-discovery off them

Simon & Garfunkel :)

See you, me, and Julio down by the schoolyard :dance:

I believe Me and Julio is actually a Paul Simon solo song. But, yeah, I like Simon and garfunkel. I'm more of a Paul Simon fan. He's a great song writer. I wouldn't say I am a super fan, but I know and like all the classics. I should dig a little deeper.

Ambulance Ltd

Sigur Rós. Okay, maybe I'm a bit late :P

The Orange Lights. Reminds me of Thirteen Senses. They are awesome.

Parachutes!

They're music is really unique, but it's kind of similar to Sigur Rós and Jónsi & Alex.

Alex Somers used to be in the band though :nice:

My favorite songs of them are:

Homesick

Your Stories

Your Song

Where Were You?

 

You should definitely check them out! :wacky:

yes! sorry. my mistake, I knew that. heard it on the radio yesterday, and I was just thinking, I can see this being my favourite song soon. I'd remembered it from awhile ago, but it just hit me now. the guitar is wonderful, it's just the most upbeat song. I'd been looking into the duo though for the past couple months, and I definitel want to hear more. they're coming to my city in a month but tickets are impossible to get, even with ticket brokers! :(

I'm currently having The National - High Violet on repeat. OMG. It's freaking brilliant. It's a masterpiece, imo. Favourite song right now is England.

Swimming With Dolphins, pure bliss:
