Music you may or may not know about

Spec, it's too bad Sigur Ros (too lazy for accents) only has one song. They just repeat it over and over and put new titles on it to make a new CD. Some of the most boring music I've ever heard.

Belle and Sebastian: Thumbs-up. Really homo, but REALLY good.

@Jake: Nice. Ted Leo owns. The Angel's Share is one of my favorite songs.

I know Sigur Ros from my Berkeley buddies and Belle and Sebastian from my Portland buddies. They rave about both of them, and I like what I've heard so far from both. (I guess I haven't heard enough to say that Sigur Ros has only one song, Guido, but both of these bands were recommended by my homosexual lovers, so I guess you're right about that )

I like Massive Attack. I'm pretty sure they only put out two albums, and did a bunch of covers, but they are awesome. I don't know quite how to describe them...it's music you can listen to all day...the lead female singer is ALWAYS high and you can tell from her voice. But that makes it BETTER. IM me and I can send you a couple of clips (TOTALLY LEGAL I OWN THE CDS) for anyone who's interested.

Dr. Octagon...

...paramedic fetus of the east.
One of the only rappers I like. Also has the weirdest lyrics I've ever heard. You might have heard one of his songs Blue Flowers on Tony Hawk 2 for Playstation something. Really weird but awesome.

Merzbow - The best music ever.

EDIT: But seriously...

Etro Anime. They're awesome. No one has ever heard of them. They did the OP music for Digital Devil Saga 1. Too bad their albums are impossible to find and they're beyond obscure unless you're an Atlus employee.

British suburban rap, enough said.

Re: RE: Music you may or may not know about

faith no more/ mr bungle/ tomohawk/ dillinger escape plan:
not really related at all, except all were the brainchild of arguably the greatest vocalist alive, mike patton. except dillinger escape plan, he just did one ep with them [he sang the original come to daddy by DEP that aphex twin remixed] all great bands, anything by mike patton is good!

WRONG

You sir, are phail if you think DEP's Come to Daddy came before AFX's.

The "Come To Daddy" EP was released in '97
The "Irony is a Dead Scene" EP (EP featuring Mike Patton and DEP's cover of Come to Daddy) was released in '02

Suburban Kids with Biblical Names


These guys rock...and I believe they are Swedish. Only two members. Some of their songs have heavy electronic influences, but a majority of their songs are pop-esque. Check out their video: http://www.labrador.se/video/skwbn2.php3

Man...That was a pretty neat video. Really nice song.
