Any New Music Selections?
 

I need some suggestions from some fellow Warpathers. I've been trying to start listening to some new music lately, something different. I'm 35 and have been thru the whole late 80's/90's thing and am looking for some new bands to check out. I've recently gotten into a couple bands like the Drive By Truckers and Kings of Leon. I like a wide variety of music but prefer some guitar based rock. I'm a little over the harder stuff but do occasionally like some Rage Against the Machine, Metallica, etc. Any suggestions?

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

My favs:

Modest Mouse
Guster
Better Than Ezra
Tool
Coldplay
The Killers
Green Day

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Baroness
Cephus & Wiggins
Shooter Jennings
Skeleton Witch
The Sounds

I like to go onto Fine Tune.com to get a few songs here and there instead of buying the whole album. So few albums are worth buying these days.

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Go to pandora.com and set up an account. I've found that it's a good way to find new bands.

Modest Mouse is my favorite band. Some of their stuff can be a little out there so it's not for everyone, but I love it. Lately I've been listening to the band Spoon and The Raconteurs a lot.

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Check out My Morning Jacket

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

I use both Pandora and Last.fm to find new music...I'm all over the place when it comes to music. In tune with some more modern stuff, I do like The Fratellis, Carolina Liar, Coconut Records, North Mississippi Allstars, Robert Randolph and the Family Band, Kaiser Chiefs, Supergrass, Lupe Fiasco, Clutch, cKy, Pepper, Slightly Stoopid, Skindred, Army of Anyone, MGMT...if you like mashups, check out Jimmi Jammes, Loo & Placido, Party Ben, Go Home Productions...

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

I like ALL kinds of music. In the evenings it's been a lot of jazz lately.

But lately I've been listening to a lot of:

The Fray
Coldplay
The Killers
The Roots
Mos Def
Sublime
Jack Johnson

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

I've been getting into some more "Indi" (whatever that means) sounding stuff lately.

Not totally sure what your into, but here's some random choices... Just scrolling through my Itunes for a second.

The Raconteurs (Their new album is ridiculous)
MGMT
Vampire Weekend
Atmosphere (solid hip Hop)
P.O.S.
Spoon
The Streets
Menomena (The entire friend and foe cd is phenomenal... its kind of melancholy, but really good.)

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Vampire Weekend is good shit

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Vampire Weekend is solid. If you are into harder stuff like RATM I heard the new Mastodon EP is really exellent. I dl'd but haven't had a chance to listen to it yet.

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

well only 20 so

Alter Bridge
AFI
Chevelle
Paramore
Foo Fighters and Shinedown isnt really new so

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Elbow
Glasvegas
Fleet Foxes
Doves
Santogold

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Britney Spears' new album is off the chain son.

I've heard good things about the new Mastodon too but haven't checked it out yet.

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Seriously though, I find me listening to K'naan's Troubadour album a bit. He on the Madden sound track with song called ABC's.

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

The Black Keys

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

My favorite new bands:

Butt Coffee
Aunt Ellie's Corpse
Schadenfreude
Otis A. Levine
Age of Consent

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Mc Paul Barman oh wait....

Its hard for me to find BANDS that I like, I generally find songs that have similar music qualities and stick to those.

[url=http://www.pandora.com]Pandora Radio - Listen to Free Internet Radio, Find New Music[/url] is great for finding new music and its free!

[quote=GhettoDogAllStars;543864]The Black Keys[/quote]

Yo, I was about to suggest this... these two dudes kick butt. Also have to co-sign on Rob's shout to the new Raconteurs album.

I'm also rotating in:

The Scanners
Gram Rabbit
New EPMD joint
J-Live
New MF Doom
Classic Punk (Minor Threat, Vandals)

Just popped Gza's "Liquid Swords" back into my Ipod (I think I've listened to the album over 100 times and I'm still not sick of it).

I saw them at the 930 club in DC -- one of the best shows I've seen.

J-Live is one of my favorites. If anyone here is into conscious hip-hop, sick flow, or just great poetic wordplay -- he's your man. Did you know he was/is an English teacher?

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

I downloaded the new Mastodon last night and have been listening to it all day, definitely a killer album. Can't wait to crank this sucker in the car on my way home later.

I didn't know he taught English... that's tight. What I like about J-Live is that he does his own production, too... His last album, "Then What Happened?", was my favorite hip hop joint of last year.

A local LA legend named Defari is a high school history teacher... he's in the same circle as Tha Liks, Phil Da Agony and Lootpack.

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Yo Matty, I had to throw this out there for you. And any other fans of the Three One One on this site. New album out June 2nd. Talk about a good album, anytime these guys put one out it never disappoints. So consistently good.

Crank the volume up for this one, and the bass while you're at it.

Hey You

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Huge 311 fan here. They're great and have been forever.

Jumping out my skin.... the skin I'm in....

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Can't get into much modern rock unfortunately, well not much modern in any genre. Rock is overly populated by screamo teenybopper shit, rap is still in its bling era (even true hiphop hasn't put out a lot lately, though I've been a bit out of the scene)

maybe try bishop allen, I haven't listened to much, but it's easy to kinda get into

[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LpmrZbTu1o]YouTube - "Click, Click, Click, Click" by Bishop Allen[/url]

a lot of my friends like dinosaur jr but i wouldn't know what to recommend by them, I think the song that I liked by them was called "crumble" .. if so here:

[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omC6LS-F-Tk]YouTube - Dinosaur Jr. --- Crumble --- Norwegian Wood 6-12-08[/url]

I really really dig feist and am finally coming around to liking more female vocalists like cat power:

I'm a big O.A.R. fan (those of you from MD should know who they are) and my boy just hit me up with a band in the same type of feel called umphrey's mcgee (no clue), not the newest, but new to me

[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZKMxpacZJM]YouTube - Umphrey's McGee - Plunger - 11/3/2006[/url] (might need to ff a bit till they come in)
[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ed_0MwtAsU]YouTube - Umphrey's McGee - Glory - 11/3/2006[/url] (instrumental but nice)

once again not new but SOJA (souljas of jah army).. reggae, love them

[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pE5XuF_CB90]YouTube - Soldiers of Jah Army (SOJA) - You Don't Know Me[/url]

anyways, a lot of this isn't what I listen to normally, but didn't know much how to direct you

Yeah, Defari is nice ... I've got him on some Beat Junkies stuff, and also some Dilated Peoples -- didn't know he taught too. Imagine if you had some teachers like that...

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

New 311 sounds really good...

I've been a fan since I was 10. I'm mildly obsessed.

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Good stuff. I'm hooked on Pandora now. A few of my favorites so far:

Raconteurs
Black Keys
Strokes

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

I think all of these have been said, but just looking at the ipod...

Raconteurs
My Morning Jacket
Spoon
Kings of Leon
Modest Mouse
Offspring (new album is great)
Eels (nothing new, but I've just gotten into them...)
Birdmonster
Killers

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

The Mars Volta
Isis
Battles
Mastodon
Baroness
Giant Squid

All new(er) bands that are definitely worth checking out.

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Digging the first half of Mos Def's [ame="http://www.amazon.com/The-Ecstatic/dp/B002B445ZY/ref=amb_link_84559551_1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=top-1&pf_rd_r=0MW7T8MBXHC46YT1F0J5&pf_rd_t=301&pf_rd_p=481386891&pf_rd_i=Mos+Def"]new album[/ame], the second half of it is total crap.

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

I don't guess that Wolfmother has put anything out recently -- lead singer has kind of a Robert Plant feel if you haven't heard them

This is a good site for finding new stuff:

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Wayne "The Train" Hancock. New to me, and definitely different. But sort of addictive.

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Blitzen Trapper.


They're my new favorite band. I have on idea how long they've been around. My fav's by them are:

Black River Killer
Furr
War on Machines
Sci Fi Kid
Texaco

I haven't heard anything by them I don't like, and most of it I love. I'll check out some of your guys' suggestions.

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Got some tickets today for the August 8th Dave Matthews Band show at Nissan Pavillion. Haven't seen him live in like 6 years. I'm pretty excited.

Re: Any New Music Selections?
 

Wayne "The Train" Hancock. Folky big band mix. Takes a while to get used to, but i love it now. The lyrics are great.
