New Music

Recommended Posts

I need some new music, something thats good, but obscure so I haven't heard it before. I'm getting bored with my music collection and need to pirate some new tunes. :)Any genre.

The Word, eponymous. Totally great instrumental gospel, with a killer lap steel player.
The Aquabats. Look for either The Return of the Aquabats, their first and arguably best album, or The Fury of The Aquabats, which is pretty good also.

Gwar, downloaded a handful of songs, not bad...
Aquabats, not bad either...
I've heard The Word before, good stuff, dig that steele guitar.
Randomly grabbed some In Flames, that's not bad either.

What kind of music you like? I've been getting into a Jazz house fusion thing lately.... but I doubt that's what you're looking for.

If you like electronica:
Delerium - newer stuff (albums - Karma and Poem) is more mainstream, older stuff is more gothic (Euphoric*, Spheres 1 and 2, Morphology, Seriophenican (sp?)) - crossover album between the two is 'Semantic Spaces'. If you like them try finding stuff by Conjure One and Balligomingo (side projects by the same producers).
If you like celtic-esque (drinking) music:
Great Big Sea (shameless plug for a band back home :)
* Eurphoric - This one has one of the weirdest tracks I have ever heard - the 'beat' (if you can consider it that) is a mechanical breathing sound - like a respirator. The only thing I've found stranger is a track by Skinny Puppy on the Blair Witch soundtrack where an inhuman ghost like 'voice' sounds like it is pleading, "Help me......die.", in the background.

Yeah, fusion Jazz is some good shit, I used to listen to UNT's 1 O'clock play a lot of fusion.
Basically the only music I've found that I don't really like is Tejano.
(You know what the difference between a polka band and a tejano band is? The polka instruments weren't stolen... sorry, I know that's a bad joke, but hey, its a slow day)

Delerium, Conjure One, Great Big Sea...downloading about a 8 songs from each artist as we speak.
Couldn't find any Balligomingo, I'll poke around if I like the other stuff, I'm sure I can find some MP3s of them somewhere if I tried harder. :)A human cannonball, I rise above it all

I've got stuff from all those except X-ecutioners, I'll go grab some of that real quick.
See, that's why I said obscure, otherwise I've probably heard it or have it (I'm currently running at a bit over 28Gb of MP3s) :)A human cannonball, I rise above it all

Half the upcoming new album from Balligomingo *WAS* online and available from the artist(s) themselves - but I think may have been pulled since (in light of the album about to be released in a month or so). Well enjoy.
Here's link from delerium.com (a fan site blessed by the producers, Fulber and Leeb) to the video for Aria (off of the latest album, 'Poem'):
http://www.delerium.com/media/videos/Delerium-Aria.mpg (it's about 41 MB, if you got the bandwidth, gives you an idea of what they are like) - they use various artists for vocals on different songs such as Sarah McLaughin, Kristy Thirsk, and Mathew Sweet.

if anyone is at all interested in electronic/techno music get some new stuff from the Chemical Brothers. Their new album "come with us" is awesome. saw them live saturday night and my ears are still ringing......sweet!!! try to download the video for the song "star guitar". it is an amazing video with some of the coolest use of computer graphics and equalizer effects I have ever seen, not to mention a great song.

I'm currently on a Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies thing... and you can never go wrong with Sonique or half a dozen other trace artists. Then there is NOFX, MXPX, Pennywise, and my personal fav for obscure... Red Wanting Blue (Indie band here in Columbus)
A couple of my old friends had a country thing going a few years ago that was recorded and released but I can almost gaurentee that you've never heard of them... Tobasco Donkeys... interesting project...

good + interesting?
Hrm, try Bitch and Animal.. kinda feminist music, but a lot of their stuff is entertaining and pretty cool. They are still a not-very-well-known band, but are riding under Ani DiFranco's label.

Yeah I went to the triple crown show at all state, but Oakenfold wasn't worth my time, he played records that I retired a long long time ago (although he didn't bouch it as bad as I was counting on him to like all the other times I have seen him) Sasha and Digweed were in top form as all the other times I have seen them. But a 2 hour set for them is just warming up. The Chems absolutely rocked. Last time I saw them Fatboy opened up for them and they were great then too.
