That album is seriously underrated.

-Listy- 03-22-2007 08:33 AM

Im sure my dad told me he picked up his album a while ago, haha thanks for reminding me.

Apocalyptic Raids 03-22-2007 08:35 AM

It's pretty good.

-Listy- 03-22-2007 08:36 AM

I wouldn't expect anything less from mr Gilmour.

yeah this is pretty sweet thanks matey.

Apocalyptic Raids 03-22-2007 08:45 AM

Beck - Sea Change

..for relaxing acoustic and strings

munky_magik 03-22-2007 09:30 AM

[QUOTE=-Listy-;14413640]Im looking for some real chilled out, relaxing stuff with acoustic guitars, strings etc. 'River man' by Nick drake is a good example.

thanks for any recommendations.[/QUOTE]

Try Air - [i]Moon Safari[/i]

Maybe also stuff like The Pogues - Rainy night in Soho or Dirty old Town.

And possibly some Alabama 3 stuff. Try - Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlife. Or even [i]Last Train to Mashville Vol. 2[/i]. Accousticy album with mostly laid back songs. There is the odd exception though.

Not really guitar based, but Daft Punk - Something About us and Sneaker Pimps - 6 Underground are pretty chilled songs.

maudlin of the Well's Interludes (the four of them).

-Listy- 03-22-2007 09:48 AM

[QUOTE=Spat Out Plath;14414255]Oh if you want an album for this, [I]Suicaine Gratification[/I] is a must. Also Butch Walker - [I]Letters[/I].[/QUOTE]


I got a few songs off an album called Mono i think..i'll get back to you on them :) But i'll check out that album.

thanks for all the suggestions people.

Le Scrawl is good.

what the hell was that :lol:

Wow..Air did that 'sexy boy' song?

Didn't know that.

I just realized i've heard quite a few of Air's songs, but I didn't know it was them at the time heh.

I can't find any Maudlin of the well, i've heard of them before though.

I should really get something better than Limewire.

just listened to "Wastefall - Soulrain 21" and the band is fantastic. can you recommend me more progressive metal in this direction?!
What i like so far:
Dream Theater - Images and Words (the only hard album by them - great riffs)
and this Wastefall album, on some songs the riffs are so nice heavy :)

what i want to have is hard (!) progressive metal; i would prefer normal singing instead of growls (like in opeth - i know them and i love them); and nice time signatures and rhythms... - something like meshuggah ^^

i once tried Pain of Salvation and never like them....

well, i know i am a Dream Theater whore, but i would recommend Scenes From a Memory if you haven't already checked it out. 'harder' that Images and Words, and follows on from Metropolis part 1.

Symphony X are another great prog metal band. check out 'Divine Wings of Tragedy' or 'The Odyssey'.

i could hook you up with one or two sample track if you like :)

repcak 05-02-2007 11:22 AM

i have both DT albums and i have all Symphony X albums.

jpshortstuff 05-02-2007 11:47 AM

oh. well then. um...
:o
/looks stupid

maybe look at Pagan's Mind, Conception, maybe some Riverside.

you've foiled me.

Bartender 05-02-2007 11:48 AM

Seer's Tear - Precious is a fantastic album in that kind of vein (I think, it's not my area).

Tyler 05-02-2007 02:47 PM

Subterranean Masquerade are one of the few interesting Progressive Metal bands I've heard in a while, but based on what you listen to I dont think you'd like them. There are some growls too, I guess.

I gather that you're looking for the progressive metal "sound", rather than bands with actual progressive tendencies. Let me see what I can dig up:

Dead Soul Tribe - The January Tree
Adagio (Fre)
Andromeda (Sweden, the band that did "Chimera")
Power of Omens - Rooms Of Anguish
Circus Maximus - The 1st Chapter

Don't hold me to these though, this isn't a sound I really enjoy.

Well spoken.

c00kieKrisp 05-02-2007 02:53 PM

Anthrax is the heaviest band known to man

Stoic 05-06-2007 07:31 AM

[QUOTE]Power of Omens - Rooms Of Anguish
Circus Maximus - The 1st Chapter[/QUOTE]

What bands exactly do these two sound like?

repcak 05-06-2007 07:56 AM

thank you guys! i will check them out...

ATM 05-06-2007 08:09 AM

Also get [i]Vemod[/i] by Anekdoten

Riva 05-06-2007 05:41 PM

[QUOTE=Stoic;14654399]What bands exactly do these two sound like?[/QUOTE]

Circus Maximus is fairly standard prog/power fare, if I remember correctly. Bit like Pagan's Mind.

niobium 05-06-2007 06:02 PM

Hi can I get some bands like The Notwist or Minotaur Shock? Nice indie electronic stuff.

A separate request: A really good industrial metal album that isn't Godflesh or Fear Factory (or Rammstein or Suicide Commando)

Riva 05-06-2007 06:03 PM

For a great Black Metal turned Industrial Metal band/album, you can't go past: Samael - Reign Of Light.

Shattered_Future 05-06-2007 06:04 PM

Ram-Zet is kinda cool, I think. I don't listen to much industrial.
