What I've Been Digging Lately
 

Ok so heres a semi-new idea for a thread. Basically, you just post what ever song,album or artist you have really been liking at the moment. If it's a new band you could put a little bit about them, good songs etc...

So if this works well enough, we could maybe get it sticky'd ( Nacho? ).

Well, a cool new(ish) band I've been listening to alot lately is [B]These Arms Are Snakes[/B] . They are a post-hardcore,art punky band who have one EP out called [I]This is Mean to Hurt You[/I].

Good songs to check out would be:

The Blue Rose
Drinking From the Necks of Loved Ones
Run it Through the Dog
Riding the Grape Dragon

[CENTER]---------------------------------------[/CENTER]

I have been listening to Neil Young's [I]Rust Never Sleeps[/I] alot lately and have come to the conclusion that it is my favourite Neil Young album. Definately check it out!

Television - Friction is one incredible song. Ahead of it's time.

Sometimes I'd say they got a ska-reggae feel, sometimes I wouldn't know what to call them. Nonetheless they are real good IMO.
Some good songs could be:
Beergut
Alchoholic
Another Generation
Ma & Pa
Check them out.
I'll update this weekly.

They are of course not new by the way

I've been checking out The Flaming Lips lately.

I don't know to much by them but here are my favorite songs, out of what I do know.

Turn it on

I find this thread very interesting because people's answers will always very, unlike all of the "who is the best..., who is the worst..., "what bands are like...", threads.

[QUOTE]I find this thread very interesting because people's answers will always very, unlike all of the "who is the best..., who is the worst..., "what bands are like...", threads.[/QUOTE]

That's why I decided to post this thread, because I want to see what everyone else is listening to, not just their favourites but just stuff they dig and think others would like.

Today I'm very much into In Flames.

^^Hehe, start off at the melodic death metal. Soon you'll be enjoying the likes of Between the Buried and Me, Carcass and Cryptopsy.

I've been getting into Air, Franz Ferdinand and Hilltop Hoods lately.

I downloaded a few songs off the new Liars album and am considering buying it.

W00t for Pixies! And if you don't know them, try the album Death To The Pixies, especially Holiday Song, which is (IMHO) brilliant.
I've also been listening to Queen Adreena ("alternative" and ethereal). Songs to hear: Friday's Child and Soda Dreamer.
"Hi, I'm new to this forum!" btw. Just in case you cared :)
