Recommend some new music for me.

Post by **fretmeister** » Sat Oct 13, 2012 12:11 am

I'm a bit bored with my music collection.

I listen to a wide range and consider that there are excellent talents in every genre. But trawling though the shit to fnd the gems is wearing.

So, if you could recommend only 1 album by someone, what would it be?

Thank you.

Bella, when I started a thread like this, you posted just to say you hate threads like this.

Recommend something! If he has it, no biggie.

I was just listening to Portishead in my local coffee shop-- thinking they still sound great after.... 15 years? (I loved them in college.)
If you never gave them a shot, maybe give them a listen now? Sort of industrial alternative dreamy.

Oh, and J's really been into listening to Boards of Canada (they've been around, too-- and have or had a lot of stuff online)-- ambient/electronica.
Nice music to work to.

I did?

I don't remember doing that, but if I did, I apologise.

This is all I found that you started, but I never posted in it. http://rationalia.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... 48#p788192

If it was some other thread... that was lousy of me and I'm sorry.

And shit! You're right! What am I thinking of?

Hardly seems looking for-- probably like my remembering Pappa not supporting sexual reassignment surgery.

I'll give some from this century that I found very appealing.

Grizzly Bear. Veckatimest.

LCD Soundsystem. LCD Soundsystem.

Tool. Lateralus and 10000 days.

Very recent.

Swans. The Seer

Dinosaur Jnr. I bet on Sky.

Music stopped around '76, as I recall...

I got tired of 'classic rock' and went surfing through the local FM stations. Found one that supposedly played Billboard top 100, but it's more like the top 10, over and over. So I went to billboard.com and checked out the lists. I don't do entire albums, just hit songs, so if you can work it go check them out.

I shall head to spotify to listen

Audley, I have those Tool albums. Brilliant! Both of them.

There is no new music. The notes haven't been revised since 1982, and only then because I found a back door to the Matrix control room.
