HEY NOOBS! Want a band or song recommendation? Don't start a new thread-POST HERE!

I need a new band/ singer listen to. I'm sick of the stuff I have right now, I want something fresh! I'm in the mood for maybe some alternative pop, or even pop punk stuff something like the singer Halsey for alternative pop, and Mayday Parade for some pop punk.

Well everyone I know who likes Mayday Parade likes Blackveil Brides... I've only kinda heard either but I can see why they'd appeal to the same people.
But if you want to get a bit more raw, one of my friends who listens to both of them has gotten sorta obsessed with the Orwells and yeah they're pretty good, so I'd recommend them. Or maybe the Screaming Females, who've been getting more and more accessible.


Does anyone know a composer that plays around with meter really heavily? David Lang keeps giving me a taste of it and I really want to find someone who explores that more. And yeah I listen to mathcore and stuff, I just want to know if there's a minimalist/traditionalist/post-traditionailist/whatever composer with this kind of focus.

[Overcast]

If anyone knows any relaxing field recording artists or albums of any kind I'm looking for them.

[Mondo Bungle]

I'd like something like that too, I don't really know any artists specializing in field recordings myself

So what's the deal with krautmetal

[Justthefacts]

Any modern jazz rap in the vein of A Tribe Called Quest?

I hate to be vague but I'm looking for something that has a general rock structure to it but isn't afraid to flirt with pop elements. A charismatic and emotional vocalist but not something too sappy, depressive or aggressive. A band that has a vision, something larger-than-life or flamboyant. They don't have to be original but I prefer a band that has their own identity; not something that is too derivative of a particular genre. Being that I'm into listening to full albums, I would prefer at least one strong album by the band.

The best examples I can think of include:
Marilyn Manson - Mechanical Animals
Roxy Music - Country Life
Christian Death - Catastrophe Ballet
AFI - Decemberunderground
The Smashing Pumpkins - Adore
London After Midnight - Psycho Magnet
Placebo - Black Market Music

Give the first two Suede albums a listen, Suede and Dog Man Star. Based on your description you might dig them.
