Need some new music!

[Icarion (aka Stockholm)]

Best band ever (In my opinion) is definetly pink floyd. The pure unique-ness of their sound, its amazing. They're (in all sense of the word) your classic progressive rock band. Other good alternative is the band "Hurt", also one of my favorite bands ever. Shinedown is technically alternative rock, you might want to give them a look. The Offspring are generally a safe bet as well.

 

[Spoon E11]

Any of theese?

Arcade Fire
White Lies
Mystery Jets
The XX
Delphic

Or atleast thats stuff that you may not of heard of.

 

[Popadoo]

Try The Fratellis! Epic band, always puts me in a good mood.

 

[blankedboy]

If you can listen to all ten minutes and not like it... get back to me.

 

[the Dept of Science]

I somehow forgot these

And because you can never miss three doors down.
Thrice, thrice, thrice. Do we miss you

 

[JemothSkarii]

I think something like Alkaline Trio. Crimson was a great album in my opinion, or even Agony and Irony. I like bits of everything to be honest.

 

[SlasherX]

We Are Scientists
Mumford and Sons
Black Keys
Gorillaz

Youtube them

OT: Just had to Captcha for the first time and I hate these things annoying should be more normal like googles captcha

 

[Toasty Virus]

Enjoy my friend.

 

[PeePantz]

You might like these. Not too sure but if not, have others that you might like.

You like modern blusey stuff? Have you ever listened to Tom Waits?

Good call.

 

[Scorp123]

Try Joe Satriani if you haven't already.

The guitarist Slash (the guy from guns 'n roses) has a solo album out, you should try it it has some really diverse and very good songs on it. he made it with a lot of different artists Ozzy Osbourne, Iggy Pop, Dave Grohl, Fergie, Kid Rock.

 

[someonehairy-ish]

My taste is anything from indie to alternative rock to acoustic new wave or modern bluesy stuff.

That's pretty huge. The only thing I know a lot of from any of those genre's is Muse. Alt Rock? Their old stuff is amazing anyways. But I'm guessing you'd already heard of em, everyone seems to have these days...
Listen to some of Buckethead's slower songs (padmansana, soothsayer, electric tears) those might be more to your tastes.
Or... explore a whole new range of music? I got bored with a lot of mainstream metal and thrash so I moved onto stuff like cybergoth, industrial, steampunk, heavier/more extreme genres eg death metal, gothic rock, groove metal and also some other electronic stuff like Dubstep. Just figure out what new genres you might enjoy and have a look into em ^ ^. Maybe some more obscure genres of alt rock, or go back to older stuff and find some grunge, or move toward heavier rock, or go in a completely new direction entirely.

Buckethead remains my main suggestion, though.

M. Shadows of Avenged Sevenfold is in 'Nothing to Say.' Sorry, just felt that bothering to mention fergie and kid rock but ignoring him was a heinous thing indeed -.-

Not really, to be honest he's not that great

 

[Just_A_Glitch]

Huh. Well, I just posted some videos of the band I'm going to recommend, Closure in Moscow, on a different thread. Let me go get them!

Spoiler: SONGS!

Here ya go. One of, if not, my absolute favorite band. They're absolutely brilliant.

I'd list more, but quite frankly, I'm having a lazy day. If these guys tickle your fancy, just come asking me for more and I shall provide.

Hey escapists, so basically I need some new music to download/buy!
