Hey guys. So I've been really busy recently and I don't have the time to find new music anymore so I thought i'd ask you lot to recommend me some new stuff to check out. It doesn't matter how old or new the bands are, just give me a few names which I might not have heard of so that I can check them out.

Just to give you an idea of what I like, here's a list of some of my favourite bands:

Pearl Jam
QOTSA
A Perfect Circle
Alice in Chains
Kyuss
Soundgarden
The Libertines
Bloc Party
Editors
Hope of the states
Manic Street Preachers
The Music
RHCP
Smashing Pumpkins
Radiohead


Cheers!

Listen to Mark Lannegan's first solo album, "The Winding Sheet". It's fucking amazing. Has a couple cool cameos from Kurt Cobain and Krist Novoselic.

I am out of the loop, (nice way to say don't have a clue)...because I only know #'s

1,4,6,14 and 15.

The only other music I know is from muy sons. One is 15 and likes what he calls "screamo" (sounds like old school metal to me) and then my newly turned back 17 year old who is into Fifty Cent and TheGame and although he's a white guy, and not new, Emiman who I think is a great writer.......

Binaural

Don't know if you'd class it as 'new', but if you haven't heard it check out Icky Thump by The White Sripes. I cannot put into words how incredible this album is You can thank me by buying me a solid gold house, I've always wanted one of those :rolleyes:

Amen to that!

Also, try 'Deadboy and the Elephantmen', 'Agents of Oblivion' or Dax Rigg's solo stuff.... great voice and fantastic song writer. Originally in New Orleans band 'Acidbath' but they split. Acidbath are fan-fucking-tastic but heavy as hell at times.

Also try, 'Electric Wizard' and 'Witchcraft' (Black Sabbath influenced, recorded on original equipment, no digital used.... proves for atmospherics to die for!!), 'Down' and 'Corrosion of Conformity' (New Orleans gods!).....
Might be a little heavy for you but give them chance, COC especially, have a great back catalogue of varying tempos and song themes.

Oh oh oh!!! try 'Paw', 'Live', 'The Audreys', 'Saybia', 'Life of Agony', 'Peeping Tom' and 'Southern Isolation' too!

*looks through PC's music files*

'Wolfmother'..... 'Zakk Wylde' (solo stuff, EARLY Black Label Society albums - nothing after Hangover Music Vol. 6 (even that's tenuous...) and Pride and Glory)... 'Jefferson Airplane'....

I could do this all day

As long as by Life of Agony you mean the older stuff River Runs Red is ace.

Check out Neurosis if you haven't already. They seem right down your alley, based on your favourites. They have an extensive catalog and are one of the most underrated yet influential bands of our time. I'm a fan of a lot of the bands you listed, but Neurosis blows them all away.

I saw QOTSA open for NIN in 2005. During a break, the singer went, "I just like to get high and fuck," and the whole audience just went silent. Later, he goes, "Yeah, I heard San Diego was going to be a tough crowd." Personally, I think their music is OK, but I wasn't into the whole "I'm a rockstar and you aren't" vibe that the singer gives off.

The Boxer Rebellion.

If you like Editors, you'll love them. Very similar but a lot better in my opinion.

They supported Editors on their recent European tour, and are doing some UK dates of their own over the coming months.

Check them out.

I've seen The Boxer Rebellion too and yeh, I think they have a lot of potential! Think they have a new album out soon so it will be interesting to see how they have developed.
