Music Recommendations

These guys are actually fantastic! Definately one of, if not, the best band to come out of the scene recently.

Sticking within the genre, there's something I've been purposely been staying away from...

1. Because Their previous album 'Common Dreads', underwhelmed me and...
2. The singles for the new album, sounded, pretty bad.

A Flash Flood Of Colour - Enter Shikari
I am really surprised, in fact, this album has blew me away! It is fantastic! When I listened, all that come into my head was 'Kid A - Radiohead', and I had to keep pinching myself to believe this is Enter Shikari I'm hearing. It is such an improvement over Common Dreads, an absolute **** massive improvement, that album was bull! And it really puts a smile on my face when I try to find ways to hate on this but I can't, it's just a 100% solid album, nothing ever heard before. Not only is it lyrically, politically and technically brilliant, in between the cracks there are some really exciting and catchy anthemic hooks, intense breakdowns and electronica galore! They've done thereselves silly on this one. So I can't help but give this one a...

9/10!

Recommended track (I'd probably recommend them all, but for those who're not sure, start here!):

Ryoji Ikeda is pretty cool. His music is pretty fun to watch as well. I'm just sitting here watching the scope visual on windows media player of that song.

Obligatory Beatles

Obligatory Simon and Garfunkel

I have more songs with more variation but that's a start.

I wasn't too sure the first time I heard it, but then realised I do that pretty much EVERY time Madonna comes out with something new. Starting to love it already though. M.I.A seems slightly irrelevant though to be fair.
 
^That song is awful, sorry, but screechy-jarring dubstep is a no-no. :x

Seeing her next week! <3

Bellowhead, they're just brilliant:

That was my favourite song of theirs, and all of their songs are recycled old folk songs.

Jer introduced me to The Middle East and The Shins. I quite like them although, the cover art for The Shins song he sent me was horrifying T-T

I was going through some old boxes and found my old Klaus Nomi CD. I'd completely forgotten about him, but have had him on repeat for the last couple of days.

They've JUST started to play this on the TV channels now as a "Upcoming Artist" segment. The funny thing is, it just misses out the swear words, it may as well be a silent movie as it blanks LOADS throughout.
