I'll pick that up.

If you like The Durutti Column you should check out these;- Section 25, Cocteau Twins, Cabaret Voltaire and the more obviously well known Joy Division.

Rusted Root is a band from my hometown (and one of the few I can say that about without cringing, considering we're also responsible for Anti-Flag and Wiz Khalifa). They're largely a jam band, performing a lot of bluegrass rock compilations and they have an excellent drummer. They never really attained a huge calling, but they have a dedicated fanbase. You should check out When I Woke if you actually want to listen to them. Might be a song or two you recognize (though I can't pretend they've ever been popular across the pond).

If you like Rusted Root, hart214, you should also check out The Foggy Mountain Boys.

Hey guys, new here.

Registered to pick all your brains and see if you can suggest some bands / albums / songs that exhibit a similar sound to LP's Minutes to Midnight album. Didn't like it at first, as is common, then started loving it and now I don't know where to find more. Help!

Dunno man I really don't like Linkin Park, I don't think I have heard any of their "Minutes to Midnight" album. Out of all NU metal all I can say that I dig are SOAD, but I am sure you have heard them so I won't recommend them to ya. All I can say is to check out maybe:

1) HELMET - "Meantime"
2) FAITH NO MORE - "Angle Dust"
3) FEAR FACTORY - "Soul of a New Machine"
4) FUDGE TUNNEL - "Hate Songs in E Minor"

thats about as close as I can go without recommending you some utter crap.

Piss Me Off · 07-20-2008, 06:22 AM

Right, i want to go on a boxset shop soonish. I'd like some reccomendations for good boxsets for..

Reggae
Dub (I'll probably go Trojan for those 2, specific ones for these would be great though)
Motown
And maybe anything else anyone could reccomend!

right-track · 07-20-2008, 06:53 AM

If it's Motown you want and providing they still do it...go for the Motown Story.
Apart from the standard classics, there's artist commentary in-between tracks.

ShumanTheHuman · 07-20-2008, 07:02 AM

I'm been lastfming Kurdish and Iranian classical and folk music recently. Any suggestions (artists/cds/boxsets/dvds etc) to start me on the right track?
