sound : Ultra - KMFDM

To the one and a half people who not just read this, but actually listens to what I say - check these artists/bands out:
  • Boris [Japanese Sludge/Doom/Drone/Stoner band]
  • SunnO))) [Never play this before going to sleep. i made the mistake of doing that and WOW!]
  • The Swans [Without The Swans we wouldn't have most of the Industrial and Gothic music out there now]
  • Pelican
  • Isis
  • KMFDM [The Grand-daddy of NIN]
  • Antony and the Johnsons [The lead singer is a drag-queen with the voice of an angel]
  • Lustmord [Creep-fest]
  • Bright Red Paper [Chill out music]
  • Vashti Bunyan
  • Joanna Newsum [Her voice takes a little getting used to for most but I love her]
  • Devo
  • CocoRosie
  • Devendra Banhart [A god amongst men, a true leader if any]
  • Dredg
  • Early Man [\m/(*_*)\m/]
  • Electric Wizard
  • Fantomas
  • The Melvins [The mother of all Grunge and Sludge bands]
  • Cat Powers

  • Green Carnation
  • Jesu
  • John Zorn [Avante-Garde modern Jazz at it's finest]
  • Khanate
  • Kyuss [Stoner Rock of the gods]
  • Mogwai
  • My Bloody Valentine [Creators of Shoegaze, without which bands like Pelican and Isis and even A Perfect Circle wouldn't exist]
  • Neurosis
  • Om [They just have two albums but that's more than enough]
  • The Red Sparowes
  • Sigur Ros [Messages of hope delivered in "Hopelandic". Beautiful.]
  • Sufjan Stevens [Melodic folk, calm and soothing yet quirky at times]
  • The Sword
  • Umphrey's McGee
  • Wolfmother [Fun Rock N Roll that harks the monster feelings of Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. I'm going to see them on the 16th of September!]

Yeah, that list was more of the artists that I've gotten into of late. The genres vary from Stoner Rock to Doom to Drone to Sludge to Folk to plain Jane balls-hanging-to-the-floor Rock N Roll.

Trust me people, if you get the chance, check these folks out... It will be worth your time.
