i basically listen to solely burial for dubstep (much different than the rest of the genre for the most part, also pretty much hipster dubstep)

Re: Torrent's Semi-Daily Music Recommendation Thread!

I would like to comment of some of the music on here for most of it fairly awesome but you lost me from the star with your comment against progressive metal.

Re: Torrent's Semi-Daily Music Recommendation Thread!

I have no qualms against prog metal except for it being pretentious lol.

Re: Torrent's Semi-Daily Music Recommendation Thread!

Cool idea. Not sure if it's your cup of tea, but any recommendations in the realm of hardcore, post-hardcore, etc.? I'm a huge indie-head myself, but I've been making an effort to branch out in all directions, and it's going quite well thus far.

I hope you meant hardcore, and not metalcore.

Post-Hardcore:
Boys Night Out (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lt7D974aCc)
Alexisonfire (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJcZaS0JthA)

Those are the only post-hardcore bands in my media library lol.

If you like Cap'n Jazz, check out the Kinsella brothers' other groups (Joan of Arc, American Football, Owls, Owen, Make Believe, Ghosts and Vodka, etc.)

IMO thread title needs to be renamed to "Music Recommendation Thread."

Re: Torrent's Semi-Daily Music Recommendation Thread!

Sorry, I've been busy with work. ;P I'll update tonight.

[AsphyxZero]

Re: Torrent's Semi-Daily Music Recommendation Thread!

Updated with two new albums! : D

You know you shouldn't be using this like a blog, right?

[Shikari]

Re: Torrent's Semi-Daily Music Recommendation Thread!

"Crying Over Pros" is simply one of the best albuns ever made, and "CYB" is the only decent album by BMTH.


Edit:

Huge list of bands

MANY THANKS for this list, I'll check every band there.

Why not? I don't think anyone would be against me updating the main post with potentially new music.

Ps I'm not sure I like you posting a gigadump of links in a thread that is self-titled. The whole purpose of this thread is to show some of the albums I've came across while browsing the internet.

If you want to show some of the album's YOU'VE came across while browsing the internet, then make a blog for your SELF. This is a forum, that means it's a community based on discussion. As members we are all authors.

I felt your suggestion for a hardcore band was inadequate, seeing as Bring Me the Horizon, Suicide Silence, and whatever other bands you suggested were metalcore, so I posted a gigadump of actual hardcore and actual post-hardcore, as well as emo/indie for the gentleman that requested suggestions for Menomena, whom you didn't even reply to.

That said, have fun with your blog here.

Re: Torrent's Semi-Daily Music Recommendation Thread!

It's weird that you called most prog metal pretentious and then expressed admiration for the Animals as Leaders album. In my experience, most of the "anti-proggers" have listened to too much Dream Theater (who can come across as pretentious) and not enough of the good stuff (Pagan's Mind, Pyramaze, Adagio, Stride, Symphony X). I totally disagree that prog is pretentious.

Also, I find that Animals as Leaders is way more self-indulgent than most prog metal; lots of random chugging riffs, sporadic acoustic interludes and not much melodic substance. Just my thought. If you like that kinda crazy time-changing stuff, though, you should check out Planet X.
