Needing some new music!

[MikeInBA]

Ok, so im in need of some new music, and Im a lover of all music that can actually be considered "music", you know...stuff with lyrics, lyrics written by the people singing, a band that plays the instruments. Here are some facts to help you decide if your music would enjoyed by me:

1. I like to think i categorize myself as more of a indie/folk, or folk/bluegrass kind of guy.
2. My top 5 bands: 1-The Black Keys, 2- The Andrews Sisters, 3- Wayon Jennings, 4-Guns N' EFFING Roses 5.-Sublime
3. Fav individual artist: Jack White
4. Currently playing on repeart on youtube: Parker Millsap - Palisade - O2 Sessions - YouTube
5. Sample playlist currently on my phone:


"Your music sucks!"

Yeah, im sure it does...now that we have that out of the way. Anybody listening to something similar?

BBR only has one album on XBM, sadly.

^^^^ Yes!

Also worth a listen: Tim Kasher, Molina & Johnson, Liars, Sam Quinn (his old band was the everybodyfields; they were great too), Wild Sweet Orange, Lou Barlow, Red House Painters...

One of my favorites, Busman's Holiday:

I should add, it would help if everybody posted 1 youtube of the band (hope to keep thread minimal, so 1 vid per post ), and the band should be on XBM.

Thanks krystea!

If we're talking about Queens of the Stoneage I am obligated to mention Them Crooked Vultures. In a totally different end of the audio spectrum, Nick Caves new album Push the Sky Away is beautiful... and you did say you liked lyrics.

I certainly don't think your music sucks. I enjoyed the Parker Millsap video and I am a fan of Franz Ferdinand and White Stripes. I like a lot of music but my tastes tend more towards pop than most people's. There are artist that I like almost everything they do: Tom Petty, Scissor Sisters, Fountains of Wayne... If you like singer songwriters you might like Aimee Mann. I'm a huge fan.
