Hey guys,

do you know the feeling of having 10.000 songs in your library and "nothing to listen to"?

I know I do, which might have something to do with the fact that I'm mostly stuck on rock music, in all its various sub-genres.

So from now on, I'm going to listen to any album you guys recommend, one album a day, and listen to it intently and stonedly. I will then document what I thought of the album, usually briefly, perhaps in more detail should I really like what I heard.

I'll preferably listen to music that is novel to me, but if you have an album that is especially dear to you, just say so and I might give it a more thorough listening to, regardless of it's novelty or lack thereof.

Please only recommend stuff you would voluntarily listen to yourself, there's only so many Justin Beaver jokes you can make before they become stale.

Really looking forward to your recommendations!

Cheers!

Day 1: Bonobo - Black Sands

Impressions:

Definitely going into my high-mix and my "music-to-fuck-to"-mix!

Since its probably new to you, you're better off just believing its a great album, without me giving a detailed description of it.

For something more in your comfort zone, I'd recommend Dio - Holy Diver. Can't go too wrong with heavy metal from the 80s.

For something a little bit different, I'd recommend Tarja - What Lies Beneath, or Nightwish - Imaginaerum. Both are Symphonic/Gothic metal. It sounds odd as a genre, but it works out really well. Most symphonic/gothic metal bands are essentially metal bands with classically trained vocalists, normally female.

I was thinking heavily and listenging to some stuff to decide what to suggest to you, as I only wanted to suggest one thing. The thing Is, I usually do not listen to albums, I make compilations of my favourite songs, I usually end with playlist of 100different artists^^. However, because there are so few bands I can stand listening to for a complete album, I basicly circled between those few, then I saw that you are from germany...If you speak germany also, I want to suggest "Die Prinzen - Das Leben ist Grausam (A Cappella Album)" (even though I always have to add Bombe from Küssen verboten to complete the album :d ).

I haven`t decided what to suggest to you if you do not speak german, so tell me and I keep thinking about it. :d

Stratovarius - Elements, Pt. 1 - very wide range between power and symphonic metal.

It's a very polarizing album, hardly anyone seems to think it's mediocre; most say it's either a complete waste of time or it's an arcane masterpiece. I'm in the second group of people and I get something new with every listen, but it's always interesting to see which side of the fence others fall on. Definitely recommend!

subscribing to this thread, doing the same

my contribution:

Kill Hannah - Hope for the Hopeless (youtube)

It's... a mix of alternative and a bunch of older stuff. I can't really describe but they've been my favorite band for a long time.

Should I be suggesting albums that are less likely for you to have heard before? If not, my favorite is:

Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd

If you've already listened to that then:

This Is It - The Strokes

My album recommendation to you is Portishead - Roseland NYC Live (1997).

Before you start it though, I recommend taking a few minutes to look at the setup they had for the amazing concert + Show Spoiler +
. The sound on this video isn't that great (as good as the DVD is) so I suggest listening to the album version, which actually sounds great for a live album (except the fans killing "Roads").


It may or may not be new to you though, so if it isn't new then I will recommend Aesop Rock meets Portishead - Rockhead (2006). This one is just a mashup EP, less than a half-hour.

Asking TL for music is asking to get overrun in suggestions.

Also, here's a list of albums I love. I kept it pretty minimal.

Metal/Hardcore:
Iced Earth - Burnt Offerings It's hard to describe Iced Earth's music with one label. They're heavy, fast, and loud, but they also have a very melodic side. The crown jewel of this album is Dante's Inferno. A 16 minute long epic, retelling the basic elements of the titular poem.
The Number Twelve Looks Like You - Mongel: Crazy Mathcore. Their music can probably be best described as schizophrenic. Bizarre time signatures all over, jazz influenced drumming, and unusual vocal styles characterize this stuff. Here's a sample. Be sure to listen for the drum solo. Part of it involves removing the hi-hat top and playing it on top of the snare drum and such. Its an absolutely crazy song.
Dilinger Escape Plan - Ire Works: Aggressive experimental Mathcore. These guys are absurdly good musicians. Here's a sample.

Breakcore/IDM/Glitchy electronic music (It's not all 100% electronic!):
Venetian Snares - Rossz Csillag Alatt Született: This album is a brilliant breakcore album. Very melodic, with a dark tone. Here's a fairly tame sample. I'd suggest checking out other Venetian Snares tracks too, to get an idea of how wide ranging his music is.
The Flashbulb - Kirilian Selections: This is basically the go to album to introduce people to the Flashbulb. Here's a sample, but it's hard to encapsulate this album. It's a crazy complex drum patterns, orchestral elements and a very jazz inspired approach to experimentation in music.
Amon Tobin - Foley Room: This is much less frantic than the others, but no less bizarre. Here's the first track. Very jazz influenced.

Jazz:
Hiromi Uehara - Spiral: Hiromi is a Piano Virtuoso and it shows in her music. That's not to say she doesn't have a softer side as well, but by and large her music is marked by a lively happy feel, like this (there's a TON of improv in this version). The other musicians she works with are all amazing too.

Misc:
Braille - Shades of Grey: No direct album link for this :/ Great conscious hip hop. Here's a sample.
CocoRosie - The Adventures of Ghosthorse and Stillborn: You can't name a genre for this. It's bizarre and intensely personal. This song (and it's Dubstep Remix[not on the album]) Is my favorite off the album.

Music in Foreign Languages:
LeeSsang - Black Sun: Korean hip hop. Great musical taste. This song has an exceptionally creepy video.
Muzion - Mentalité Moune Morne… (Ils n'ont pas compris) These guys are Hatian-Canadian, and rap in french. In this song they mix in hatian creole. They've got great lyrics (I had to look them up, but they are really good), and a really nice musical style.

At the Drive-In - Relationship of Command I think this is one of the best rock albums I've ever listened to.
A Tribe Called Quest - Midnight Marauders A great jazzy hip-hop album, with great lyrics.
Disclosure - Settle A great album with electro/garage. You might've heard of them already, but as they are a pretty new act, I'll name them here anyway.
Plaid - Scintili This is probably the most unknown and underrated out these 4, but definitely one of the best IMO. It's electronic music, but I feel like that doesn't describe it well. Maybe psychedelic-electro?

I discover music I listen to through Youtube more often than not, which means I find one song from a band I like, maybe find three more and then move on to a new band and their three songs, so my recommendations are going to be particular songs. Each recommendation is very different. These are things I personally listen to, but may not be things you like.
The vocals are 100% an acquired taste for everyone. I only started liking them after I put songs like these in the background while owning up some Counter Strike. I found these songs after I got used to this type of vocals, so I have no clue how abrasive you might find them, if at all.
If you like anything, it should be the guitar work.

Reform
+ Show Spoiler +

Ironically, after my big vocal disclaimer, I'm starting out with a song without vocals. These guys are metal, but they have a ton of symphonic elements. They exclusively do instrumentals to my knowledge, and all of them are in this style. Probably the most upbeat song on this list.

The Endless Feed
+ Show Spoiler +

Have dry vocals, slower paced song.

Story to Tell
+ Show Spoiler +

VERY old for this type of metal, high pitched vocals, guitar work characterized by both the "old" style it uses as well as abrupt changes in tempo and beat. If you like technical stuff, you may like the guitar work here.

War of the Mind
+ Show Spoiler +

Finally, something normal. This is stoner doom/stoner rock. It stradles the line between rock and metal. Has highly distorted guitars, extremely slow pace and the vocals aren't sung by a he-demon.

Anything by Evoken
+ Show Spoiler +

+ Show Spoiler +

+ Show Spoiler +

This is way out of almost everyone's comfort zone, but honestly I have to plug these guys wherever I can. They deserve whatever attention they can possibly get.
They create art. If nothing else, listen to the intros of these songs. They are part of the, I guess sub-sub-subgenre(?) funeral doom. Combination of funeral dirge and doom metal. The result, if done right, is very atmospheric, utilizes many instruments and is more of an experience than a song. Basically it's what you'd expect to hear if you wanted a metal adaptation of a Hymn.
The best part about these guys is what you'll be hearing in the intros: variety. They can spice it up in so many different ways and yet maintain, in almost every song they put out, the highest level of quality. It's an achievement few can match in any genre.
