Recommend me music

[Portmanteau]

OK guys, it's a quiet Saturday night in, how about doing a little public service.

I'm in a bit of a lull as far as new music is concerned, I don't know whether it's because I'm not finding it or that it doesn't exist. Damn DJ music.

Anyway, I basically only listen to about 5 artists any more (and certain other individual songs):

Arcade Fire
Fleet Foxes
Rage Against the Machine
Kanye West
and a bit of Arctic Monkeys, I s'pose.

Anything in this vicinity you could brighten my day with? I'll listen to any reasonable offer (YouTube pls).

Cheers.

They aren't exactly "new" bands but The Libertines, The Hives, The Fratellis and the Strokes are similarish to the Arctic Monkeys and are good.
Here's some songs:

Not sure who to recommend in likeness to Fleet Foxes. They're pretty much the best of their genre, so no point listening to Mumford and Sons or something who aren't even half as good.

Not that big a fan of Hip Hop but I did like Beautiful Dark Fantasy by Kanye West, because it was just so bloody epic. I don't listen to him much but I do like community lol and he is new, so you can try Childish Gambino.

Interpol -

Linked two of their more popular songs because you're probably more likely to enjoy them.

+1 for Childish Gambino.

Tapping into the Arcade Fire / Fleet Foxes area, you might enjoy some Sufjan Stevens or Broken Social Scene:

Dirty Projectors.
their 'Bitte Orca' album got a lot of attention in '09, but I reckon '07's 'Rise Above' is the best.

 

[Portmanteau]

Great work guys. Keep em coming.

Have previously listened to all the above extensively except for Skrillex, Broken Social Scene and Dirty Projectors so I'll give them a spin.

Bitte Orca is an amazing album.

You might like Kurt Vile as well. I'm on my home so I can't post a YouTube link.

 

[mansize rooster]

Skrillex has gotta be some of the most bland s**t i have heard in a long time

 

[La Dispute]

I agree with Mansize Rooster.

I'd recommend Foals, Wild Beasts and Wolf Parade as a few to get you started.

 

[cats2rise]

The Checks - A New Zealand rock(ish) band.

I've been digging them for years but no-one else has heard of them

[Thistle]

Arctic monkeys are my favourite band so I would recommend:
Last Shadow Puppets
The Strokes
Foals
Kasabian
Hard-fi (First album)
Queens of the Stone Age

Seeing as you like Kanye give Lupe Fiasco a good listen if you haven't already. First two albums are brilliant, but avoid his latest offering as it is shite.

The album Remember The Day by Exit Ten.

 

[Eastdog]

I listen to mainly rock and some metal. I also like some hip hop and don't mind some electronic/house music as well. I like the Foo Fighthers, RHCP, Disturbed, Linkin Park, Metallica, Pantera, Rage Against The Machine, Tool, Killswitch Engage, Daft Punk, Eminem. There are more but this is some of the music I'm into it

I haven't ever listened to it, but I'll get it over the weekend and lock myself away to listen to it in peace.

Yeah Foals are definitely a great band to check out. Two very good albums.

I'd recommend Delorean and Dom.

Delorean are a Spanish band that have an awesome latest album "Subiza" and a really good EP as well "Ayrton Senna EP".

Deli - [youtube]43gmbza86AA[/youtube]

Stay Close - [youtube]55wlNgFTDR0&ob[/youtube]

The other one is Dom. Sort of similar to MGMT in a way. They're from Massachusetts. They've released two EP's so hopefully an album in 2012.
