Music Recommendations for trip

[4theCYcle]

So I'm heading overseas and need something new to listen to on the trip over and back. Anyone have any recommendations of alternative/rock bands that may not necessarily be in the mainstream or easily heard?? I got most of the songs off the new seether album, as well as the theory of a deadman, but would like some more. Even country too.

It could be unique as well. I've circled my list on my iphone too many times and lost hard drives with older music in the past.

 

[Dandy]

90's Hip Hop.

Bands I have been listening to lately that somewhat fit the genre you describe...I have been in a retro rock mood lately....

Rival Sons
Monster Truck
Kyng
The Sword
The Sheepdogs
Killer Be Killed (a bit heavy and wild, but good)
Maylene and the Sons of Disaster

Throw away that Seether and Theory of a Deadman and get some Darkest Hour and Parkway Drive.

Where you going? Sometimes there's music from the country you're heading to that you can listen to. Kind of gets you in the mood to be there - in a strange sort of way.

Man I've been listening to a lot of Prince lately. This album is real good:

Otherwise, St. Vincent's new album lands in the rock n roll area. As does Paul Simon's Graceland, which in my opinion is a top 3 album of all time.

Switzerland, Greece and Italy.

I know what you mean. I enjoyed the Irish and Scottish music when I was there. Once I listen to that it takes me right back to their pubs.

I think you have hate in your heart sir, let it out...lol.

Not my cup of tea!

Mozart and Vivaldi. Beethoven's 6th for a country change of pace.

If you've never listened to the band Pavement, give them a shot. One of the great, obscure alt American bands from the 90s. Out of California. Start with the albums "Crooked Rain" and "Terror Twilight". You could also go with The Replacements. If you're not familiar with them, a truly awesome alternative/garage band from the 80s. From Minnesota. Go with albums "Let it Be", "Tim", and "Pleased to Meet Me". And if you're interested in something newer but equally cool, try the band MGMT, the album "Oracular Spectacular".

Always will remember this song the night this was played during the Ok St game. I thought JTS was coming down. And it looks European in the video but what do I know.

 

[pourcyne]

Go European. Manau's new album "Fantasy"...this song "Flee all that shines"

A friend of mine gave away some of his vinyl records to me and this was one of them. Blew me away the first time I listened to it. I've always heard it's good, but I didn't realize it was that good.

 

[mkleve44]

Just download best of the 90's, then just sit back and play and shuffle.

 

[WhatchaGonnaDo]

Bronze Radio Return
The Colourist
KONGOS
Little Comets
Magic Man
Misterwives
Saints of Valory
Smallpools

Lol, i've never seen the video for that. You know, the girl could have gotten away quicker with better running form. Kinda cheesy, but it'll always take me back to that night against Okie state. Always a great song.

Few people do until they actually listen to it. Recently found my vinyl copy which has been spinning pretty much non stop.

Nothing helps you discover new places and immerse yourself quite like putting on headphones and listening to American music at the highest volume.
