Taz Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 RnB/Hip Hop - now thats music! If you say so Not really many albums out at the moment that I like. The last one I bought was The Annual 2004 (M.O.S.) It's pretty good if you're into that type of stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Finesse Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 Don't laugh but i recently bought Dido's new album and was very surprised at how good it really is, sitting proudly in the car multichanger it is an absolute gem to listen to, to wind down after work. Also recently bought best of rem, pretty decent but thats what to be expected from a best of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bow_Legged_Chicken Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 Neptunes presents clones. Superb album. R. By R Kelly is also a good album.

Spud55 Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 havin a laugh aint you?? Sean Paul is quality, Dancehall music is wicked. Beatles Oasis etc - all need hair cuts and their music is #### like westlife and blazin squad! RnB/Hip Hop - now thats music! umm i'm going to have to disagree there, Sean Paul is absolutely rubbish, does he actually have the ability to come up with any beats of his own ? I have had the misfortune to hear too many of his songs and out of about 8, 3 beats were all nicked, one From Dre, on from Snoop, and one from Beany man. Add to that is "rapping" is woeful. Most comercial R+B and commercial hip hop is absolute bollox, get some Uk/Underground US hip hop with some smooth beats and that is where the good hip hop is found. As for music in General, i would say it is worse now than it has ever been, i can think of very, very few new bands that have been any good and appeared since the death of Nirvana in 95 or whatever. Luckily there are still descent bands out there producing music, Tool Nine Inch Nails A Perfect Circle Audioslave Chris Cornels solo stuff So at least the most tallented people on the planet are still around producing music, but most of it will never be heard by most. EDIT - Just thought i'd take issue with the sex pistols being grouped as a good band, they are quite listenable to, but musically they are poor.

Guest Harry May Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 The Clash - London Calling. The benchmark which all music should be judged by. SLF - Inflammable material , also worthy of classic stautus , as is most of the early stuff by The Ramones such as Rocket to Russia. Newer stuff ? Not alot around really . Rancid are OK , Agnostic Front have recorded some good stuff , as have The Distillers. If any of the younger forum members can recommend some decent music , I would be more than willing to give it a listen. Caldicot Red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhatWill Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 If any of the younger forum members can recommend some decent music , I would be more than willing to give it a listen. Caldicot Red. I don't pretend to know that much about music and I hate jitter music and all the cr@p featured in Kerrang. For me The Strokes are just fantastic with Room on Fire exceeding Is This It, which is some achievement. Listened to The Vines first album which is class and have heard good things about their new one Winning Days. Franz Ferdinand are definetly worth a listen too.

Dpeneds entirely what you like. There is nothing like the clash around anymore. Or at least not that i have heard. Bands i would recomend, that are still around today nine Inch Nails Tool - Probably one of the most tallented band ever to have existed. A Perfect Circle Thats about it really, new music is in general very naff, i have not seen a completely new band appear for years, there are supergroups like A perfect Circle, but they are made up of existing people from other bands. If you like odd electronic music, very chilled, i would highly recomend, Aphex Twin - selected ambient works vol 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Perfect Circle Pardon my ignorance but are those bands you mention all jitter style music? I've never even heard of Tool or a Perfect Circle. Aphex Twin are ok but calling their music "odd" is a bit of an understatement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spud55 Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 Depends what you define as Jitter music, if you define good Charlotte as jitter music then god no. Tool are well, just tool, seriously odd people, all very, very into the occult and stuff like that. A perfect circle are prpbably the personification of the term superband, their members are taken from two of the best band to immerge in the last decade, Tool and the Smashing Pumpkins, and one of the biggest bands on the planet in Marilyn Manson. Apnex twins music is not all odd, some of it is just plain scary, like come to daddy, to normal eclatic drum and bass, to just outright seriously chilled out music, like the stuff on selected ambient works.

Also if ya like Alice in Chains, try Degradation Trip, Jerry Cantrells new-ish one, its a belter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WillsbridgeRed Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 The Jam Greatest hits never seem to be far from my CD player, or any Robbie Williams album. But in there right now is - Oasis live at Wembley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
City Rocker Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 The Jam Greatest hits never seem to be far from my CD player Good for you mate, but get the albums if you haven't already as most of their best stuff was album tracks not singles IMHO. Caldicot Red: Get The Libertines debut album 'Up The Bracket'. Produced by Mick Jones of the Clash, these boys add a hint of punk-rock-humour and imagination to some great tunes. Also check out 'Get Born' by Melbourne band Jet, raw blues rock with shades of early Stones, AC/DC, Iggy Pop. And ploughing a similar furrow are the Kings of Leon with 'Youth and Young Manhood'.

Yep, I'll go along with them too, and also if you can find it Pain, by a reformed Rose Tattoo, older, definitly no wiser, and bloody cynical too.

Mickey Bells left foot Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 out of the older bands ive got the clash (greatest hits), ramones (Best Of The Chrysalis Years), the undertones (the undertones), all of which kick ass. but i strongly reccomend BRAND NEW both albums (your favourite weapon) and (deja entendu) are really worth a listen i quite like some of FEEDER'S older stuff.

elko Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 i'm guessing none of you have ever really listened to THE SMITHS. maybe not everyones style but they are the only band that can challenge the beatles for the title of 'best band ever'. therefore THE QUEEN IS DEAD is the greatest ever album, shortly followed by MEAT IS MURDER or HATFUL OF HOLLOW or STRANGEWAYS... best new album Outkast - Speakerboxxx/The Love Below (not that new but i only just got it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If any of the younger forum members can recommend some decent music , I would be more than willing to give it a listen. Caldicot Red. Agree with you, that is one of the best albums ever made but my fave ever is Dexys "Searching For The Young Soul Rebels" I don't qualify as a younger member member of the forum but since we're agreed on the Clash from days gone by, if you haven't already discovered 'em you may like Feeder, Jet, Dogs Die In Hot Cars, Franz Ferdinand, Kings Of Leon, (going back a bit) Rocket From The Crypt. I don't agree with the bloke who said music has gone downhill. Completely independent of what genre you like, there is loads of great pop, rock, punk, urban, R&B, dance, reggaem alt.country (The Broken Family Band - my fave band in the country at the moment). Get on the net, look up bands on websites (nme.com and drownedinsound.com are good starting points), play the songs and if you like 'em, buy 'em.
