Guest Patrokles Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Doesn't take much to be better than U2 tbh, seen as they're fucking awful. Note I said early U2, who were quite the critical darlings in the 80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1117 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Any who likes Radioheads' later albums should like the Thom Yorke one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Any who likes Radioheads' later albums should like the Thom Yorke one. I didn't. There's no guitar at all on his solo album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Pedant! I'll rephrase then. Anyone (well some people anyway) who liked the more electronic offerings for Radioheads later albums will enoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinofbeans 86 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 the following youtube will show you an excellent non guitar based tune cymbal rush from thom yorkes album (stripped down to a 909 drum machine, a rhodes 73 electric piano and an ondes martenot clone) fantastic...

Guest Patrokles Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 I've never disliked BoC, but they do bore me somewhat. I think that there are better examples of the genre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinofbeans 86 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 some does sure , like any groups you have hit and miss moments i guess. most of their music has been very well put together... still enough of that. other recent good stuff.... ladytron's last album , the raconteurs album...

TheInspiration 1 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 (edited) Seeing as you like the great Metallica, might I tempt you with a bit of metal? By the way which era do you prefer - before or after the lead singer Hetfield's voice broke (a little late mind)?

gram 0 Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Ozomatli - Not what you asked for but god fun music from LA Rifles album is very good. Dirty Pretty Things is good as is the Babyshambles album but they arent what you like. Get a copy of the Ordinary boys doing all the things she said by tatu cos thats very good. Bought lots of other stuff but its just ok: Fratellis is Ok in places but nowt new Kasabian is ok but gets on my wick and cant understand why bought it. Cribs/Subways are good but thats old now Go Team. Best album heard for a while but its 2005 New Razorlight one is shite Never played that Editors album cos its so totally inferior to either Interpol album. It gets on me wick aswell. Get yourself some Love, Byrds, Gram Parsons, Gene Clark, Redskins and Spizz Energi and you wont go far wrong. Still like the Coral though. They write very clever little songs. Jeff Buckley album is tripe so wont recommend that but the lass he shagged (Elizabeth Fraser) had a great voice so the Cocteau Twins would be good. Tell you what is very very good though - Ambulance Ltd. Like them a lot. Dears album is pretty good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Patrokles Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Go! Team album is very patchy indeed. Bottle Rocket was one of the best songs of last year but the rest is instantly ignorable. The Ice Storm offa their early ep is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Patrokles Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Annuals will probably make it big at some point in their careers. I'll be sure to quote this post several months from now when they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonraider 0 Posted October 17, 2006 Author Share Posted October 17, 2006 Did anyone see The Gossip on Jonathan Ross (or seen them elsewhere). I was impressed. Album any good? The band with the large girl singer? I thought they were pretty good, i liked her voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way which era do you prefer - before or after the lead singer Hetfield's voice broke (a little late mind)? I love Metallica saw them on the snake pit tour. I prefer their earlier stuff, master of puppets and ride the lightening being my favourite albums. So what metal did you have in mind then? Im patial to it but dislike the thrash stuff.

Toonraider 0 Posted October 17, 2006 Author Share Posted October 17, 2006 (edited) It's also worth noting that you can discover new music that isn't actually new in terms of release date. eg, From The Lion's Mouth & Jeopardy by the Sound from www.renascent.co.uk, some of Tuxedomoon's stuff, Jardín Clos and Shot & Echo by Wim Mertens, etc. Of course, people often talk about wanting to discover new things but then when other people post on the subject, the response from some quarters is to not even click any of the links and instead churlishly deride the effort. Because your links are to the wrong stuff, post links to something new that sounds like U2, floyd, radiohead, athlete, QOTSA, metallica, led zep or phil collins and Toonraider will be straight on it. i sure will My god, i cant keep up with all this 'new' music! Since i started this thread i have really got into Sigir ros, i mean i adore them, so thank you all for that, to think i was missing out on them all that time Edited October 17, 2006 by Toonraider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 It's a shame the only rawk band worth giving the time of day in the last few years has been System Of A Down, the whole area is dying on it's arse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonraider 0 Posted October 17, 2006 Author Share Posted October 17, 2006 I listened to The Sound- 24, again recently, its a very good album, yet dont hear much about them at all, anyone know if theyve split? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
