Discovering New Music

[loIitoads]

I enjoy music just as much as I enjoy film, and to this end, I hope you will all take part in this thread, and introduce one another to new music. Basically, post a youtube/alternative link to a song, the next poster comments on it, whether they liked it, why not and so on. Try to be just a touch more eloquent that 'I didn't like it', and analyse why you didn't, and whether that is a good reason or you need to be open-minded, just the same as you would with a film.

To begin, one of if not my absolute favourite artist, Sleater-Kinney. The song is Entertain from their album The Woods.

At first I wasn't really sold on the song; it sounded more like noise than it did music. But as I continued to listen to it, I found the hook really catchy, and actually kind of liked it. I wasn't a fan of the distorted guitars, but overall I really enjoyed it.

It's Metric's "Patriarch on a Vespa" from their album Live it Out. These guys are definitely one of my favorite bands.

Hmmm, I remember when the album came out it wasn't so well received by Pitchfork, so I sort of overlooked it, but I actually really liked the vocals. I'm not too fond of the guitarist, who sounds a bit tired, but I might check out the album for the vocalist, she's good.

Next, the Thermals Pillar of Salt, a single and one of the best songs from their album The Body, the Blood, the Machine.

That's a great song! I really liked the meaning of the song. ^^
