Cookyman Posted September 14, 2020 Posted September 14, 2020 Any Elvana is fucking awesome.... or Brass Against...
Cube Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 I've had this stuck in my head lately: Poets of the Fall are a pretty awesome band. Incidentally, the phone in the music video is an object from the video game Control, which contains a hidden room where this song is being investigated. The band also has songs in Alan Wake, Alan Wake's American Nightmare and did the credits song for Max Payne 2. On top of that, they're also a fictional band in the Alan Wake/Control universe with multiple songs in those.
Ganepark32 Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 New Sufjan Stevens album is out and loving it so far. Particularly loving this, been getting a lot of play time over the weekend: Rally looking forward to Matt Berninger's solo album (lead singer of The National) when it releases in just over 2 weeks. He put out the video for One More Second the other day and it's classic Berninger, Dad dancing included. One last one thats been on repeat a lot recently is Widowspeak's latest album. Only discovered them this year but really loving the stuff they've put out this year (the song Money in particular is so good). This song, The Good Ones, is probably my favourite from the album. I just love that deep guitar and bass in the back with the delicate drum beat. Feels like a throw back song, especially with the vocals. Really great song and album. Despite there being a pandemic going on, there's some fantastic music coming out at the moment alongside these. Love the new stuff Kevin Morby has put out as well as the recent Deep Sea Diver song with Sharon Van Etten.
Mr_Odwin Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 This song was on a youtube hot rock playlist. Absolutely love it, but none of their other stuff lights the same fire in me. Kinda gutted. 1

Can't wait for their new album
Mr_Odwin Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 I'll defo give that a listen. If there's gems like the one I linked to I'll be so pleased. Can you recommend any other ones like it? Other ones that I've not liked are "Real love song" and "Impossible".

Dufniall Posted October 15, 2020 Posted October 15, 2020 Timestamped at the appropriate time for Pokémon fans. It's funny that the Pokémon theme song got played on the world's largest metal festival, and it sounds awesome too. For those wondering, the guy is Leo Moracchioli/Frog Leap Studios, and he runs a YouTube channel where he converts pop and theme songs to metal versions. Some are pretty damn good. Sometimes he goes on tour with a live band, as in the above video.

drahkon Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 What a song...quite possibly their best one, yet. @Mr_Odwin Not sure if it's one you enjoy. Maybe the final part.

drahkon Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 @Mr_Odwin Nothing But Thieves' new album Moral Panic dropped. I think it's great. A good mix of quiet and heavier songs. The album's theme and lyrics often hit quite close to home... This one's is incredible:
drahkon Posted November 13, 2020 Posted November 13, 2020 (edited) Good old System Of A Down Sadly, this doesn't necessarily mean a new album is on its way Also worth a watch: Edited November 13, 2020 by drahkon 1
MindFreak Posted November 13, 2020 Posted November 13, 2020 Ah, System of a Down. Been a while since I've listened to anything from them. I've recently discovered Swedish Eyes Wide Open which I find quite nice to listen to! The video here is a bit meh but it sounds good.
Mr_Odwin Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 LOL, what even is this video? Just popped up on a new rock playlist. 1
drahkon Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 Des Rocs fucking rules. Been listening to his music for a while now. Can't get enough of it. This Is Our Life is the only track I play on the guitar these days Simple, yet so much fun.
Mr_Odwin Posted November 25, 2020 Posted November 25, 2020 I feel like the first riff from that track is directly lifted from RATM or maybe Audioslave? Can't quite place it, but it's so familiar.
CrowingJoe79 Posted November 29, 2020 Posted November 29, 2020 "Heal It" by Roger Bowling. This song was the opening track to a film called The Exterminator. It's about a troubled former soldier who takes justice into his own hands, with bad people.
Ganepark32 Posted December 2, 2020 Posted December 2, 2020 Some recent-ish tracks that are some of my favourites for the year: Big fan of Future Islands and this track is a fantastic closer to the album. Hadn't heard from Lianne La Havas in a long time but this track really struck me. Very nice. First time listening to This Is The Kit with their new album, Off Off On, but I fell in love with it in first listen. This song in particular is superb.

Cube Posted December 11, 2020 Posted December 11, 2020 Poets of the Fall have been recording new versions of some of their songs in a big theatre (making use of it while they can't have any shows). They're great Full Playlist
Happenstance Posted December 14, 2020 Posted December 14, 2020 Loving Band-Maid's latest song at the moment. Apparently it's also going to be the opening song for Log Horizon season 3 as well.
