MusicBanter,
I am about to make a mix cd that I can take to work to give to one of my co-workers. I have been able in the past to make
some headway with his musical "tastes" but I really want to seal the deal.
Typically he listens to rap/rock but I want to make sure I never have to listen to Nickleback or Limp Bizkit again while we ride around between job sites.
Currently I have already introduced and succesfully (to my suprise) gotten him to enjoy the following:
Coheed and Cambria, Avenged Sevenfold, 30 Seconds to Mars, Breaking Benjamin, Chevelle.
I'm looking to even further his exposure to what I consider
real music.
On the line up so far for the CD mix is:
Red, 10 Years, Hurt
He seemed to take the best liking to Breaking Benjamin and Avenged Sevenfold and I've failed him with My Chemical Romance and The Used so can anyone here recommend so tunes that incorporate the "metal" sound with advanced techniques such as orchestra, limited screaming, etc.
Any suggestions are welcome
Even those who are going to flame my music tastes that I have mentioned. Thank you in advance for at least reading and if you comment you're even cooler in my book. I will be checking back often as I only have a few hours left in the day to burn this CD before work...
