February 6, 201115 yr Hi guys, Hope this is the good area to create this topic, it is probably not, but hey, I'm new here ;) Basically, I'm addicted to Coldplay 2nd album, I just can't stop listening to it. I'm looking for other bands who might make me feel as AROBTTH does... So if any of you are in love with this album, I would love you to tell me what other bands you crave! Just throw me names and/or albums/songs and hopefully you'll make me discover a new drug! I have A LOT of music on my computer, so it might be be hard to find a band that I don't already know, but I'm sure there are plenty of bands out there that I haven't heard about. Thanks a lot! Take care PS: I could (and will) look through the list of artists who are being discussed in "The World of Music", as they all have this common thing with Coldplay. But I'm looking for bands who have this "AROBTTH" thing, not just bands that Coldplay fans like...
February 6, 201115 yr Radiohead... [ame= ] [/ame] [ame= ] [/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Lnltl3YoqQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Lnltl3YoqQ[/ame] [ame= ] [/ame] [ame= ] [/ame] [ame= ] [/ame]
February 6, 201115 yr I think you might like Keane, Snow Patrol, Travis, U2, and OneRepublic (if of course, you don't already have them in your library)
February 6, 201115 yr Muse. Jk lol not really. Though you should check them out, I totally <3 them. :wacky: I'd agree with Travis and Radiohead though. :nice:
February 6, 201115 yr May I suggest you check out Lifeblood by the Manic Street Preachers? Even if the rest of their stuff doesn't appeal to you this album might!
February 6, 201115 yr Author Hey guys! Thanks very much for your answer! Unfortunately, I already know (and love!) Radiohead (what kind of Coldplay fan doesn't know Radiohead? lol), Travis, Snow Patrol, U2, OneRepublic, Keane and Muse (I'm not a big fan of the 2 latter). But I didn't know Manic Street Preachers, I will check them out! If you have any other ideas, just throw'em out there! Thanks ;)
February 7, 201115 yr haha... good luck on your quest. you will need it Why would you need luck? There are lots of good bands out there. Try In-Flight Safety.
February 7, 201115 yr Author There's probably a part of luck, cos even if there are great great bands out there, they're not famous enough to get into my hears. And that's why I've decided to take it in my own hands and come here to ask you guys... I've heard about Elbow, and love their hit "Grounds for Divorce", but I've never really taken the time to listen to their other stuff, I will definitely do it! In-Flight Safety, that's one more name to my boat! I'll check them out when I can! Thanks, and keep them coming ;)
February 7, 201115 yr what about Elbow? their album Asleep in the Back is pretty cool :) Understatement! :D Susanne Sundfør - The Brothel
February 7, 201115 yr Travis is the closest especially songs like Side, Driftwood, Writing To Reach You, The Last Laugh of the Laughter. :nice: The earlier albums resemble AROBTTH a lot compared to the latest one. Gosh, I haven't listened to Travis for ages! *goes to listen* :wacky:
February 7, 201115 yr Author Lol, I know Travis, one of my favorite bands as well! I'll just throw a few names to spare you: Five For Fighting, Placebo, Stornoway, Amy MacDonald, The Frames, The Radio Dept., Mew, Midlake, Blind Pilote, Pilate, Jimmy Eat World, Gary Go, Travis, Nada Surf, KoL, Elliott Smith, The Shins, Radiohead........ That's a few right there I can think of.. I like In Flight-Safety, and Manic Street Preachers, so thx for those 2 ones. I will check Susanne Sandfør ;) Gimme more! :P

February 7, 201115 yr Author *BEEEP* (it means I already know and like them ;) but thx!) It would be awesome if you guys could just throw me a list of bands that have that AROBTTH-Coldplay-ish style IYO, cos I reckon that it'll take 4-5 years if we them do one by one hahah :P
February 7, 201115 yr White Lies - To Lose My Life... The Pineapple Thief - Somebody Here Is Missing Røyksopp - Senior And you were gonna check out Elbow, right?
February 7, 201115 yr A House for Lions. They're like that album, but with a bit of a retro-folksy tune. You'll love them. :nice:!
February 7, 201115 yr The Boy With No Name by Travis - a fantastic album and horribly underrated. Listen to Ode To J.Smith as well. Probably their most innovative album. Fabulous!
February 7, 201115 yr The Boy With No Name by Travis - a fantastic album and horribly underrated. Listen to Ode To J.Smith as well. Probably their most innovative album. Fabulous! :awesome:
February 7, 201115 yr But I didn't know Manic Street Preachers, I will check them out! If you have any other ideas, just throw'em out there! Thanks ;) If you like the album I mentioned you can always check out their other stuff as well! ;) A band that sadly spilt up a while back but had a few good songs was Haven. Their stuff might be a bit harder to track down. Til The End is one of my fave songs by them. Think they did a couple of albums at least. Singers voice has an ethereal quality to it that you might like!
February 8, 201115 yr Author I've started to listen to your suggestions, I'll take the time to get into each universe... @ The Final Track: I had heard about White Lies, but I never got into it. I tried again, and I have to say, some of their songs are great! I will check Pineapple Thief and Royksopp, thx for the names! @ Coldplay_is_Louve: A House for Lions sounds awesome! But it's really hard to find them somewhere... And I don't want to buy them on iTunes.. I hope they get big so I can get their album in my store... @ Doritji, thx for the names, I will definitely check those one out! @ howyousawtheworld: I love Travis, and particularly the 2 albums you mentioned, nice taste ;) @ THe Gutless Wonder : yeah, I've started listening to other MSP songs, some of them are really nice! Thanks guys, do not hesitate to give me more names, I have quite enough for now (tons of music to check out, so great), but I'll always welcome your suggestions! :kiss:
