Best New Irish Band has got to be Waterfords
The Dead Heavys

Everybody in the Nite is some choon. There's a video they apparently made in that they made in some burnt out hotel. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_yuQBfyYNI

Saw them live and they were deadly. Think they're playin in Dublin soon.

Can anyone recommend me some Spoken Wordy/Hip-Hop type music?

As in not purely Spoken Word on its own, I need a beat.

Someone like Scroobius Pip perhaps. This is exactly what I'm looking for:

For stuff similar to The Beatles you should check out The Byrds, Love, The Kinks and Big Star. All essential bands.

I'm not familiar with the others.

I'm not very good at finding artists that I like. Sometimes I'll stumble across a singer or band that I really like and I'll listen to them. I don't have a really strong dislike of any kind of music but my favourite artists are Regina Spektor, The Smashing Pumpkins, Placebo and I like a few songs by Two Door Cinema Club, anyone with any suggestions of artists that are somewhat similar to those?

For stuff similar to the Pumpkins and Placebo you should check out JJ72, Pixies, My Vitriol, Silversun Pickups, Starflyer 59, Mew and Sonic Youth. If you haven't already of course.

Good stuff mate thanks.

neil_18_ · 15-01-2013 6:52pm

Can anyone recommend a singer/band similar to City and Colour?
To be more specific, similar to his powerful voice with an acoustic guitar

Bummppd · 17-01-2013 12:27pm

The Villagers are awesome, If ya haven't heard stuff from their new album, Should definitely check it out!!!

greenspurs · 21-01-2013 11:49pm

The Menahan Street Band - really good chilling out music.

If you listen to music on youtube, you could try seevl.net which is a great youtube plug-in for discovering new music. For example you can search by genre, labels or specific artists. It also provides you with personal recommendations.

Sweet Jane "I Wanna Be In Love" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDTCiB9IbKA

Tom Day:

Australian artist who makes some very chilled out songs with good beats behind them. Well worth a listen & perfect montage music imo

New band from London called Spiritwo.

PandyAndy · 30-04-2013 12:30am

My old collection is in need of some updating, a lot of it is old stuff. Recommendations would be welcome, preferably bands/someone fairly new-ish and/or 'current'. More female artists too!

Here's what I have already.

Thanks

Caught their single 'Witches' on Phantom a week or so ago. V impressed! Downloading the EP now.

jesse pinkman · 05-10-2013 6:29pm

The radio version of this sounds more like an old Elton John track, yet Hozier is a good current Irish singer/band.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MlHC2rEPdQ

Whereas London Grammar are from er . . London . . I'd imagine.

simonmln · 01-11-2013 9:45am

A great website for finding musis similar to your tastes is Music Map. You just put in who you like and it gives a list of bands very similar, a little less similar etc.

Some great new bands I've found recently are:
The Weeknd
Jai Paul
Mount Kimbie
Feist

The lead singer is doing very well coaching Laois senior hurlers since

Potential-Monke · 24-05-2014 6:59pm

Ok folks, little help. I'm after getting a serious love for Tove Lo - Stay High feat Hippie Sabotage. I'm wondering what style it is exactly, as I'm looking for other tunes like it (deep bass notes, not a load of lyrics). I've been looking at deep house mixes, but I may as well be staring into a field of thistles.

I'd suggest checking out Flume - especially his stuff with Chet Faker, they've collaborated a few times.

Other than that I'd say

Flight Facilities

The Aston Shuffle

Let me know if you want more based on that.

Potential-Monke · 04-06-2014 12:29am

Flume - Amazing! Exactly the kinda stuff i was looking for. A multitude of thanks!

utopian911 · 02-11-2014 4:46pm

my top three porcupine five songs are:
1.Lazarus
2.Train
3.Arriving somewhere but not here
4.Anesthetize
5.way out of here
...happy listening...

I would suggest following some of your favorite bands on Spotify and you will be able to see what they are listening to. I also am really liking The New Division, Phantogram, and The Naked and Famous.

TheBiz · 04-10-2015 12:24am

Jason Isbell, Literally anything by him.. (But do look up his Back Porch Session and his song Elephant)

I dont see any 80's sub forum but some of you might like this one, it was in the 1983 move Valley Girl. Should have been an 80's Anthem but I dont remember it.
