anything similar to those poor bastards/hank III?

rasputin 03-01-2010 08:43 PM

[QUOTE=Nostalgia;17835367]I'm in need of some shoegaze that doesn't suck. I really like Slowdive as well as the idea of shoegaze music, but when I hear the classic bands of the genre I just think it sounds silly.

Anything similar to Slowdive? Btw, no my bloody valentine plz[/QUOTE]

one of the best and most similar bands i've come across to slowdive (who are my favourite) would be alison's halo. get their eyedazzler compilation, the songs on it are amazing.

Nepenthe 03-01-2010 09:51 PM

i love alisons halo but i dont think austin will like their vox

rasputin 03-01-2010 10:53 PM

that doesn't even make sense, if he likes slowdive vocals then it's highly likely that he'll also like alison's halo vocals

weaboo 03-01-2010 11:05 PM

austin u might liek mazzy star idddk

Nepenthe 03-01-2010 11:46 PM

no not really i mean slowdives vocals are alooot better than alisons halo

Ralphims 03-03-2010 08:12 AM

Hey, I'm looking for some really heavy metal but with clean vocals, kinda like Iron Maiden, but a bit more modern and heavier?

Si1v3RfaNg 03-06-2010 01:46 AM

What's some really good metal/rock with strong organic song structures? Like songs that flow well and are long but you can't predict them. Yet hold your interest the whole time.

Tyler 03-06-2010 01:57 AM

Uh, what? I think you might need to be a little more specific here. All I can think of is Subterranean Masquerade's EP and LP but you're not giving me much to work with.

I would say Natsumen, but really you're not cool enough to like a good band

Pig - [I]The Swining[/I]

it's more industrial but you could give it a try

DBlitz 03-06-2010 09:51 AM

i know this is gonna sound very broad and varies a lot from person to person but i need some emotional (in a depressing way) stuff.

maybe indie-folk like bon iver/richard youngs/nmh. i've been listening to have a nice life a lot recently and find it quite 'depressing' (maybe not the right word) as well.

Txus 03-06-2010 10:06 AM

Check out the following albums:

Grouper - Dragging a Dead Deer Up a Hill
Twinsistermoon - The Hollow Mountain
Zelienople - Ink
Isengrind - Golestân
Giles Corey (other project from the dude of HANL, you can download all of his stuff for free from last.fm)
Afterlives - A Ticking Clock I Couldn't Stop

DBlitz 03-06-2010 10:14 AM

alright thanks

Morumbar 03-06-2010 10:36 AM

Recently discovered Grouper. Good stuff.

Txus 03-06-2010 10:40 AM

Didn't know you were into that type of music, Grouper is beautiful stuff. Some of the most original Drone/ambient music I've heard.

Morumbar 03-06-2010 11:51 AM

Yeah, I've only recently been getting into ambient. The ambient stuff of Agalloch, Altar Of Plagues and some other black metal bands got me into it. Then I found Grouper and Tim Hecker on http://slaysfordays.blogspot.com/

Got any other recommendations in that style?

Txus 03-06-2010 12:43 PM

damn, there's too much stuff, if you want things like Grouper check out the same recommendations I gave to DBlitz if you want things like Tim Hecker's Harmony check out:

Stars of the Lid - And Their Refinement Of The Decline
Fennesz - Black Sea
William Basinski - The Disintegration Loops
Deaf Center - Pale Ravine
The Dead Texan - Self Titled
Gas - Pop
Thomas Köner - La Barca

Morumbar 03-06-2010 01:22 PM

Thanks man. :) I especially like Tim Hecker's stuff, so I'll be checking out some of those.

Nepenthe 03-06-2010 02:56 PM

weaboo 03-06-2010 09:41 PM
