Recommend me some music

SpectralJulianIsNotDead · 09.29.2007, 02:50 AM

I've been listening to a lot of Polvo and Mission of Burma lately.

I'd like to listen to anything that is very rocking while still being arty with a bit of pop sensibility.

Polvo, WIRE, and Mission of Burma seem to be all right on the mark in that regard IMO.

alyasa · 09.29.2007, 03:02 AM

Grandaddy
Gumball
Can
Comets on Fire
Jim O' Rourke
Sea and Cake
"John Zorn, Dave Douglas, Mike Patton, Bill Laswell, Rob Burger, & Ben Perowsky - The Stone: Issue One"
Matmos
prefuse 73
This Heat

Just some suggestions... Might not be what you're looking for, or you already have it...

Check out the album Why Do They Call Me Mr. Happy? by NoMeansNo. They have several great albums, and a few so-so ones, but this is my very favorite, and matches the description of what you are looking for to a tee.

Bitch Magnet - "Umber and Star Booty"

I will never tire of recommending this album.

nicfit · 09.29.2007, 04:38 AM

Made out of Babies (more "hard" than artsy)
McLusky (more fun than artsy but I love their sound)
So, yeah, to put an end to these useless suggestion, I'd say:

"nirvana" haahaa.

5Against1 · 09.29.2007, 04:47 AM

"Monkey Grip" by Bill Wyman, I have the 8-track if you want to borrow it.

alyasa · 09.29.2007, 04:54 AM

Bitch Magnet is promising...

Torn Curtain · 09.29.2007, 05:27 AM

Lift to Experience
The Notwist (of "12" at least)

atsonicpark · 09.29.2007, 07:10 AM

alaysa, i love many of the bands you listed, but they have nothing to do with julian's request! julian, i'm going to actually follow your request!:

thinking fellers union local 282 <--- like polvo.. but better!
truman's water <--- like polvo but less melodic/more insane
scissor girls <-- deconstructed no wave with poppy parts occassionally!
bride of no no <--- super arty/abstract with chick singing; prog no wave; 10 minute no wave songs with like 500 parts; amazing
sun city girls <-- you know them, right?
the vss <-- art punk something; "nervous circuits" reminds me of if you mixed the first 3 wire albums in a blender
omoide hatoba <--- haha; alternates between pure art to pop to every genre in between; just amazing
cerberus shoal <-- get "mr. boy dog"; completely abstract/rocking/arty/awesome
