I'm wondering if you can help me. Looking for a Jagged Edge remix of one of their songs. They had a video for it and it's not 'Let's Get Married'

 

Jermaine Dupri was all in this video also.

hmm mundane lists that noone will read? OK!

 

Right now, Brand New are on repeat in my head. I gave these guys a 2nd chance a few months back when i discovered that five of my closest friends all loved them AND so did my girlfriend... And boy, am I glad I did. Most people will know the track Sic Transit Gloria but everyone should check out their tracks I Will Play My Game Beneath The Spin Light, The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot (a nice sad song) and finally Ok I Believe You, But My Tommy Gun Don't, which is an awesome parody of the very music everyone says the band plays. To be honest, I think it's worth listening to most of their Deja Entendu album for the lyrics alone.

 

The Used vintage stylee, Jimmy Eat World with the albums Clarity and Bleed American pwning up.

 

Heard a band called LCD SoundSystem last night and saw a couple of videos.. they seem pretty damn cool.

 

That'll do. GO!

Technique is ill as well mos def and kweli are both dope but there second albums (the new danger, beautiful struggle) are not better than their first realeses (black on both sides and quality), if you like their style check out a group called little brother with an album called the ministrel show im sure you will like it for me its one of my top albums of 2005.

1349, Abyssic Hate, Bathory, Behemoth, Burzum, Carpathian Forest, Darkthrone, Gorgoroth, Immortal, Judas Iscariot, Keep Of Kalessin, Marduk, Mayhem, Satyricon, Xasthur

 

 

Good good. Nice to see you've started to explore the genre. I assume you're going to see Gorgoroth & 1349 on the 30th then?

My favourite bands currently are as follows:

 

Beherit (Gritty, droning Black Metal),

Burzum (The finest Black Metal ever created),

Death (Incredible Progressive Thrash/Death Metal),

Devil Doll (Unparalled Orchestral Rock with Speed Metal influences),

Sigh (Their early works are Black Metal with heavy East Asian influences whereas their newer material is more Progressive Thrash),

Master's Hammer (Unique sounding Czech Black Metal),

The Chasm (Death/Thrash Metal with Aztechian influences),

Xasthur (Nihilistic USBM),

Mütiilation (The best of the Les Legiones Noire Black Metal scene),

Moonblood (Darkthrone influenced German Black Metal)

and Sarcofago (Early Brazilian Black/Thrash Metal).

 

Tendo returns.

I was wanting to go, but satans hollow's website is under reconstruction and I know nothing about the place. Took me ages to find their site too :-/

People are still questioning whether they'll play there. The thought that they'd fill two 350 person venues is questionable. You should play it safe and come down to The Underworld. Everyone over at BMUK is meeting up there under a big Norse flag, should be fun.

Ok, my final question :P Satans Hollow is a club right, selling booze and stuff, so they let under 18's in?

 

Otherwise I want to go now, even if things look bleak at this late stage :P

Noodleman, I see you happen to like some power metal, most noteably in the form of Yngwie "fucking" Malmsteen, I'd advise you to check out Tony Macalpine and Jason Becker, two guitarists who both put Malmsteen to shame.

I don't know the venue, sorry. I'd assume you'd only get ID checked if you go to the bar.

Tut, no one can shame Malmsteen. He's just too sweet.

I'm afraid this post is a respite from Metal, so you lot might want to skip on down.

 

Recently I've been listening to a lot of Sigur Rós — props to Indigo for the recommendation. I'd say 'Takk...' is their most easily appreciated album, although personally I think 'Von' is great in an eclectic/perverse kind of way.

 

Speaking of eclectic, I imagine most of you are acquainted with the varied delights of Gorillaz. So that's all I'll say bout them.

 

I find Frou Frou/Imogen Heap constantly listenable. Ironically, Let Go just doesn't; it's fresh and familar at the same time. Shh is another favourite of mine.

 

If you're in to Trip-Hop, you should definately give Lamb a look. They've split up now, but there's still four albums left in their wake, not to mention a maelstrom of remixes. As I've mentioned before, I love Gorecki, a track from their debut album. But you can't really go wrong as far as I'm concerned.

 

On a similar note, Massive Attack is a classic. For some reason I'm not really in to much of 'Protection', but I enjoy the other albums, including the OST for the film 'Unleashed'.

 

This of course brings me to Portishead who are apparently in the process of making their much-belated third album. I'd say they were an acquired taste, or at least they were for me. Repeated listenings are the key, in my opinion.

 

And now, as if to suggest I was working in alphabetical order, we have Zero 7, crafters of fantastic background music: serene, unobtrusive, yet doesn't crack under the pressure of a concentrated ear. I believe their third album is also in the early stages of development.

 

I'm not really that much of a music buff, so those are the only bands I care to mention.
