Well, my friend who doesn't want them gave me $60 in iTunes giftcards, I need some new music. Any recommendations? I mainly like Alternative, but am up for anything atm.
Here are some good albums that came out within the past year or so, that I particularly like and they fall in the Rock/Alternative genres. Kings of Leon; Only By The Night Rise Against; Appeal To Reason Creed; Full Circle Breaking Benjamin; Dear Agony; Phobia; We Are Not Alone Shinedown; Sound of Madness Three Days Grace; Life Starts Now Trapt; Only Through The Pain
Already a big fan of Rise Against and Three Days Grace, thus I have those albums, but I'll look into the other ones also.
I don't know if you're into New Age, but if you are, then search Ryan Farish. He incorporates a bit of World into his style, and I personally think that it's awesome. He even has a Christmas album.
The Used: Artwork Atreyu: Congregation of the Damned Breathe Carolina: Hello Fascination Blessthefall: Witness Only good newish albums I can think of.
Interpol: Antics Cake: Fashion Nugget Atmosphere: Lucy Ford Franz Ferdinand: Franz Ferdinand Rage Against The Machines: Renegades The Postal Service: Give Up Lynyrd Skynyrd: (Pronounced 'Leh-'Nérd 'Skin-'Nérd) Jack Johnson: In Between Dreams Incubus: Light Grenades Blaqk Audio: Cex Cells Flogging Molly: Within a Mile of Home The Beatles: The Beatles 1 Bloc Party: Flux Remixes Those just a few albums and artists from my small 6000 song library on winamp. Which is growing at a few gigs of qaulity music a day. If you would like some more let me know. Everything from old school rap to techno, rock to The Beatles. Hope you like those. I am addicted to all those albums, especially lucy Ford. It was the album I listened to the most. I listened to it as the only album I listened to for a Month. Inspirational and Touching.
haha.. lights showed me this band aswell and they are definitely worth checking into. Although we like different albums. My favorite is No Shame.
In no particular order; Jimi Hendrix - Experience Block Party - Silent Alarm Florence And The Machine - Lungs High Contrast - Tough Guys Don't Dance (Probably better off Downloading since they have so many remixes) The Prodigy - Their Law / Invaders Must Die Arctic Monkeys - Favourite Worst Nightmare Muse - Black Holes & Revelations Fake Blood - (DJ, no albums, might have individual tracks - 'i think i like it') The Killers - Hot Fuss Justice - A Cross The Universe Radiohead - In Rainbows The Streets - Original Pirate Material Kings of Leon - Only By The Night Kasabian - WRPLA and Empire Chase and Status - More Than Alot Calvin Harris - Ready For The Weekend
No one has mentioned Red? Awesome awesome band. I recommend the songs "Death of Me", "Already Over", "Pieces", and "Breathe Into Me". I also want to add Skillet to the list 8). Look for the songs "Hero", and "Monster".
Haha, wow. Thanks guys. I've looked into some of the bands/albums suggested so far and I've got a few I've already bought albums from and ones I'm going to buy from. Keep 'em coming!
