I been enjoying lately electronic infused rock I guess is what its called....

RadioHead - Kid A
Flaming Lip - Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots
Broken Bells - Broken Bells
These New Purtians (even though I not fond of the vocals)

Anyone got any suggestions for artist and albums by those artists I should check out?

Try Marvin G(ay)e, try "What's Going On". Same time period.

Rose Royce, Roberta Flack, Rufus & Chaka Kahn.

Sorta that time period, funky R&B.

I agree with the earlier discussion on this board that Prog tends to be very love it or leave it... I'm personally on the love it side of that equation, I gotta admit...

Me too, not all prog is unaccessible... There are quite a few bands out there that would surprise a lot of people that wouldn't give them a chance.

Prog can be done brilliantly, or can be done just for the sake of being prog, which 99.9% of the time, are ****ty albums.

Anyone have any suggestions for a band that plays like Paramore and 30 Seconds from Mars but without all the yelling?

I have an unusual request:

I was watching this Angry Video Game Nerd episode on the Atari game Swordquest and there was a really cool, inspirational song playing in the background. I can't really describe it, it gave off this uplifting, medieval, inspirational, epic battle song.

The video is here: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/an...ewattack/61988

The song starts at around 7:25 in.

It kind of reminds me of songs in movies after a great battle scene, like a ray of hope now that the hero won. It also kind of reminds me of an epic journey.

Does anyone know of any similar songs? Thanks a lot!

I can''t name any, but I was about to ask a question about 30 Seconds to Mars anyway.

I was out to dinner at Applebee's the other night and I heard their new single, "Kings and Queens." I usually don't listen to the lighter stuff like the, (with most of my interests towards heavy metal, etc) but I found myself enjoying it all the while.

Anyways, I heard some positive critiques from people I know who listened to the new CD, but read rather mixed reviews online. And I'm debating with myself about whether I should buy it or not. Can someone help?


Oh, yeah, I'm also looking for a band that has a similar playing style to The Black Dahlia Murder.

Thanks!

At The Gates.

EDIT- 100th post, woo...

I've heard of them, but never bothered to listen. Any specific song/album?
