I like Lisa Loeb a lot, a female singer/guitarist who did a famous song called "I miss you" in the mid 90's.
50 Cent is good for his rap work with Eminem and Ed Rush & Optical are the people for quality Drum + Bass.

Stones = 60's (not 80's 90's crap)
Floyd = 60's (not 80's 90's crap)
Come on Kronas, you asked for good artists, having sold MILLIONS of singles AND albums, I'd say they meet the criteria.

the criteria may be more vague than you think?
do you mean currently working bands/artists or currently published ones?
Pink Floyd recently released a DVD compilation remastered in 5.1, didn't they?
- and last I heard the Stones are still gigging? - have a go at the "Exile on Mainstreet" double album or "Beggars Banquet"
REM played Glastonbury this year - they are "old" as well, but damn good!
imo music wise you should never ignore the past!:)

you also said you wanted to widen your musical taste?
<edit>
so I have to mention
The Cure
Talking Heads
Ian Dury
Frank Zappa
- and - The Clash.
even if you don't like it - sorry, I'm not having a go, but I am expressing an opinion.
:)
Neil Finn, the lead singer of Crowded House... especially the "Try Whistling This" album, and She Will Have Her Way track.. best song EVER!
Jellyfish, kinda hard to find, but there final album was critically acclaimed, sounds like the beatles meets oasis (same thing?) meets queen, just really good.
If you like that you wanna get some Bob Dylan, and Traveling Wilburys stuff... what else... hmmmm...

Good point Gaz. I used to be interested in what was modern at the time (80s crap), but at some point, I found myself getting bored with the new fads, and instead started wondering what had inspired the bands that I liked. As it turned out, there was a lot of good stuff out there.
These days I play a lot of singer/songwriter stuff. Pretty much of all ages...

Kronas, I think the current era of music is under threat from being totally done away with, as there is no talent out there, well, in numbers anyway.
This is backed up by the report that the beeb is threatening to axe TOTP (http://www.bbc.co.uk/totp/)
Viewing figures are at their lowest ever for the popular show.
Bring back Pans People (http://www.nostalgiacentral.com/pop/panspeople.htm) , then maybe I will watch it lol.
A bit off topic, sorry Kronas, but the pop industry is dying a slow death IMO

so we both agree with Stuart W's post re David Gray?:)
I also like stuff like "M" People, Eurythmics & Alison Moyet - & Fine Young Cannibals.
If you want to broaden your horizon, have a look at 16 horsepower/woven hand. In my book fairly recent (debut album in '96), but not very well known (yet).
It's American Roots music (banjo/bandoneon that sort of stuff), but with an (early eighties) punk twist. I think Dave Eugene Edwards (the singer/leader) is probably one of the most gifted contemporary songwriters.

I'm a Leonard Cohen man. Then there's Will Oldham/Bonnie Prince Billie, Songs: Ohia, and Timesbold. and good old Uncle Bob (Dylan).
Obscure, bar the first and last. I can't help it, I've always been drawn to the dark side. Occasionally, I will even play my old Joy division albums :sleep: :sleep: :sleep:

Kronas,
The main problem you will come across if you are a genuine music fan is that most of the stuff out these days is either a) Boring depressing crap ala coldplay, travis etc or b) talentless ****e ala Gareth Gates, will young, kym marsh the sugababes, etc etc etc etc ad infinitum.
Personally what I try and do is look to the underground bands. You like Avril, do you like the skate scene too?
If so look there for some music, theres plenty of recent punk covers of classic songs and they are bloody good.
These bands are going to be far too heavy for you, but I love:-
Sick of it all
Anthrax
pennywise
NOFX
SUM 41 (ok they are a tad poppy)
The Wildhearts
Iron maiden (who have a new album out this year)
Evanescence
linkin parks first album (meteora is utter ********)
less than jake
Reel big fish
Dave Stones

i have all of those in my collection, mighty fine bands as well they are. anthrax being my favourite band of all time (who doesnt love the track "i'm the man"? i love listening to less than jake and reel big fish at the moment... they are just summer personified arent they...
you cant go far wrong with what plays on scuzz at the moment either. depends whether you like metal/punk/ska and the like.
i doubt you will like these but have you considered one minute silence? they are british rap-metal often compared to RATM but dont sound anything like them. me likes them but the singer has a unusual voice so it may be a personal thing...
edit >> incidentally if you check out less than jake get their album the pez collection. it has all their best songs on it...

ace of spades which is ok and a theme song which i have
have a go at the Dandy Warhols and Primal Scream, that'll sort you out. Boards of Canada if you want to really relax.
Motorhead, lol, saw Lemmy when he was still with Hawkwind in 1975, now that was a band.

(These are all a bit 90's but ...)
Ministry - Filth Pig
Revolting Cocks - Linger Fickin' Good (yes it's spelt correctly)
Sheep On Drugs - Greatest Hits
Cubanate - Cyberia (probably my most played album)
KMFDM - Opium
Nitzer Ebb - Showtime
(These aren't ...)
Goldfrapp - Black Cherry, if only for 'Train' and 'Strict Machine'
Spineshank - The Height of Callousness
Apoptygma Berzerk - Harmonizer
Funker Vogt - Survivor
VNV Nation - Future Perfect
Front 242 - Pulse
I doubt you'll enjoy any of these ... at least not half as much as I do
A curse on you for picking out the most mainstream group for comment! ;)

Although they were deifinitly 90's Revolting Cocks are excellent - and as mentioned Nine Inch Nails, and most of the above - Bifta, have you got the wax trax Box set - I think you might like :) ....
Kronos, I have to say it seems a little hard to please you in certain respects, when something like the 'Skate' scene was mentioned you seemed to suggest you didn't like that sort of music, and you want to keep it current, Not that I have a problem with that, I like a challenge!!
I have very varied music tastes, and strictly take everything on their own merits, I'll be honest - I don't even mind some crappy pop stuff - if s-club juniors do I track I like, I 'll say so - even if I don't like them, which I don't, but this has happened.
For a hint though - what were your last five albums you bought?
And for mine
The Darkness - Permision to Land
The Faint - Danse Macabre (thought this was excellent - check out www.thefaint.com)
Audiobullys - Ego War
Ani DiFranco - Evolve (one of my face artists ever, big in USA, no-one has heard of her here - someone prove me wrong!)
White Stripes - Elephant
Flogging Molly - Drunken Lullabies
Alkaline Trio - Good Mourning
I think these are all 2003, with the exception of flogging molly which was end of last year
Try the Raveonettes: Sonic Youth meets The Jesus and Mary Chain (Now that was noise ;)), and lots of attitude...
He could also try the Distillers

Unfortunately I don't own :( but I'll keep an eye out next time I'm in Sister Rays, Nine Inch Nails did a few great tracks, wasn't dead keen on 'The Fragile' much prefer the f*cked up J G Thirlwell remixes of Happiness in Slavery.

Have you any Foetus stuff? one got one but that's not bad.... (it's J G Thirlwell again if you didn't know)
And I take it you now about 'Pigface'?
I was always a fan of Pretty Hate Machine, and I still think Hurt is still one of my fave tracks ever. I actually bought Johnny Cash's latest CD because it had a cover of that which I heard Mark and Lard play. It's actually really good though!
And I'm most impressed with the Distillers too.
You could also try The Transplants, (or Rancid for that matter)
And I still think I'm the only one on here who's heard of Ani DiFranco!
Come on, Kronos, tell us a bit more about what you're looking for...
I've got some pigface stuff on some wax trax compilation CD's, 10 ground and down or something was the only track that sprung to mind. Have you heard of Murder Inc? Chris Connelly at his finest.
Originally posted by chambece

I've got some 5 Foetus albums, plus Wiseblood (Foetus + Roli Mosimann of Swans fame), plus a load of 12". Actually, all my Foetus stuff is on Vinyl. Haven't listened to it in ages though...

Just got the one track -
Murder Inc. - Murder Inc. [Busted Corpsucle Mix]
Album:
Hot Wired Monster Trux / Various Artists
Pigface is basically a collective of all of them lot!! check out
http://ubl.artistdirect.com/music/artist/bio/0,,479538,00.html?artist=Pigface
Sorry about the hijack!!
Hot Wired Monstertrux is an almost legendary industrial/ebm compilation, practically everyone I know (including myself) has a copy of it, every single track is an absolute classic.
Murder Inc I think had two drummers who were ex Killing Joke, your man from Ministry on guitar (and I don't remember the others apart from Chris Connelly)

What about dance/trance music???
4 Strings, Barthezz, Basement Jaxx, Binary Finary, Cosmic Gate, CosmicMan, Daft Punk, Chemical Brothers, DJ Encore, DJ Tiesto, Driftwood, Dumonde and all time classic Olive - Your not alone. Most of these artists are alright if your into clubbing or just dance music.
If not, what about artists like:
Elbow, Jimmy Eat World, Good Charlotte, Gold Finger, Evanescence, Mest, Moby, Moloko, Oasis, Radiohead, Chilli Peppers, RÃÃâ€*’¶yksopp, Shaggy, Smash mouth, Staind, Sum41, The Beatles, The Streets, Camron, G Dep, 50 Cent, 50 Pence :D, Blink 182.

Dont bother with Metallica now, they will split before long, the latest album wasnt fit for wiping yer ass with.
Senser are good, a little "old" now, but as long as you stick with the lineup with the bloke singing you cant go wrong. Tehy were very good live too.

Elbow, Jimmy Eat World, Good Charlotte, Gold Finger, Evanescence, Mest, Moby, Moloko, Oasis, Radiohead, Chilli Peppers, RÃÃâ€*’¶yksopp, Shaggy, Smash mouth, Staind, Sum41, The Beatles, The Streets, Camron, G Dep, 50 Cent, 50 Pence :D, Blink 182.

Hehe, don't know how to take that - I'm not sure how old you are, but my guess is that I'm older than you from that (and therefore know better ;) :D )
If you want to give some indication of your age that might help, although I'll be the first to admit it shouldn't. Just so you know, I'm no longer in my twenties, but only just.... Still feel 19 though!! out to gigs / clubing whenever my arthritis and the warden in my housing complex allow me...
I was just wondering if from the 'oldies' you were wanting, dare I say it, more 'charty' music....
And you have been very quick to say the stuff you don't like, but not the stuff you do - I mean you said you had evanesance and 50p ;) but the rest you seem to say you've not heard of or don't like... The other thing is some of the oldie artists are still doing 'new' stuff, and don't want to preach but I don't think you should rule them out just 'cos they're "'80s or '90s crap"...
A couple of examples would be Gary Numan and Killing Joke who are back - and depending on your tastes you should check them and their back catalogs out - Killing Joke's Pandamonium is a great album, and I don't think you'll find it sounds dated now. Another one is David Bowie's earthing
Oh and add Athlete to one of my fave albums, and I thing The Streets have already been mentioned
Edit - Just reread my post and realise some might take offence - want to point out that I have nothing against old people (I am one, or will be soon!) and don't / didn't mean to take the rip regarding arthritis - sorry :angel:

Yeah, have to agree with that one the first single (Cochies or something?) I didn't like - just reminded of Led Zep, but the second one I quite liked...
And I too really like Senser, although still liked them after the bloke left - quite like the group he went on to form saw them once , although can't remember their name...

Pandemonium (Millenium being the best track on the album) dates waaay back to 1994.
I've come to the conclusion by reading this thread that there are quite a few people on here with excellent taste in music .. kronus however is not one of those people, Latrine was made for people like him and as such I'd suggest finding him some more middle of the road top 40 boll0cks to listen to .. at least you know he's already into that :)

OK, so this is getting a little awkward now - we still have very little idea what you actually want - you've said you don't want 80's or 90's, you don't like dance/trance or 'skate stuff'
In fact, the only things you've mentioned in a positive light are
evanescence
finger eleven
seether
eminem
def jam
delta goodrem
motorhead
Now I admit I've not actually heard of two of them until I checked out seether and finger eleven, and I assume by Def Jam you mean the label, so no point in mentioning their roster,
But Seether sound positivly 90's pretty grungy (a web site says Post-Grunge - which just stinks, hey it's also post 16th Century Chamber Music) but you've limited yourself to no 90's crap, so you'll probably fire us down for suggesting Pearl Jam, Sound Garden, hey Nirvana etc... Unless you've not heard of them of course . They sound OK though (seether that is)
Finger Eleven are pretty similar sort of affair - I really liked Good Times, but many of them are pretty similar to things already suggested and you've sort of said you've not liked them
Some of you might have missed the
gary numan and david bowie lmao no thank you
And from a previous mail
i said no classics i meant in the current 'era'
Now, in some ways I took offence to this - Have you heard Gary Numan's new stuff, or Bowie's Earthling? If you haven't then there's no way we can help you. I mean give it a go, if you don't like it, fine, but that doesn't mean it's crap, or that you've got better or worse 'taste' than anyone else
And the other thing is they are current era - by that I don't just mean they are still releasing records, but they are releasing music that sounds 'current' Which in some ways is more than I can mention for some bands -The Darkness and The Coral Step forward - but I still like them because They are good records(imo) even though they don't sound current
so far i have not heard anything new that i have liked :shrug:
Then, as someone else said, you're not looking very hard, or not listening, or don't want to at least....
I mean have you checked out UBL/ ArtistsDirect anything like that? I take it you have internet access, so get yourself over to http://www.artistdirect.com and check some out - From Seether to all the below and more in two easy clicks

Erm, Kronas, I wouldn't call either of their styles unique, and before you think I'm bashing them, I like both of them, and although when I saw Avril she was as boring as hell and the crowd really spoilt it, I still like her, and I don't care if she is 'manufactured', 'can't really play', 'didn't write her own songs' or 'is really a 44 year old truck driver from arkansaw with a wooden leg', that's not really what I look for in a band, so it's a pretty moot point. Hell I've seen a 44 year old truck driver from arkansaw with a wooden leg play some mean tunes
Edit: OK they are perhaps unique for top 40 artists releasing singles in certain months in 2002 and 2003, but hey, there's more to music than the charts

So you've listened to everything Bifta has mentioned?
I have to admit I am gonna side with him a little - he's suggested some damn good tracks, and at the moment, From the few you've mentioned I'd say they're not bad either (again, CDs I own) but appart from one little outburst from bifta saying you've got s**** taste, which I think was perhaps a little unfair, we've not ****ged you off, and I really don't believe you've heard everything we've mentioned, and in your honest opinion you think it's crap
You're as bad as a number of other people I know - one did the classic with Linkin Park
First Single - 'I like That...'
I lend him the Album
'I Like the single, the rest's crap'
Second Single 'I like That...'
Me - 'It's on the album' - Him - 'Is it?'
I lend him the Album again
'I Like the singles, the rest's crap'
I think that happened four times
EDIT : I've been censored, I've been Censored :D :shocked: :angel: - it was "we've not dissed you unfairly"

Can you expand - like I said - I do like her, and although her gig wasn't brilliant I'm putting that down to the fact she had quite a bad cold, and probably many artists would have simply cancelled. I do have a lot of respect for her and hope she does very well, but also hope she doesn't fall prey to record company greed or thier mentality. PM me if you want - I've never had one of them :)

Seriously that site is great for stuff like that, 'cos usually there's links to the bands sites, with tracks, videos etc....
And although that last post did sould a bit like a flame, it wasn't meant that way, honestly.....
And again, for instance, I don't like a lot of Bowie's stuff, but Earthling sort of like isn't a 'bowie' sort of album - it's more drum and bass, and it might lead you to new things, if you like that sort of stuff. Back catalogs are great for that - you find a bit about a band's history, it leads you to loads of new stuff.
Also use UBL for checking out producers - quite often a band uses a producer because they like their work on another artists CD, and they think 'we want to sound like that' - you find who produces albums you like, again, you might find new stuff, and learn a bit more in the process....
Putting what I preach into practice from Evanesance, The Producer was DAVE FORTMAN, who as it appears was in Ugly Kid Joe, and I'm sure you'll reconise 12 Stones on there, as you'll probably know the sing from there did vocals on 'bring me to life'

Sorry I understand where you're comming from, it's just that I'd never say anything is crap - it's a flaw of mine - I can usually find something to like about most tracks, even if it the fact it's well produced, well marketed etc. Hey, I bought the Girls Alound CD - There's some good tracks on there, due to good writers, and good production, that doesn't mean I like "Girls Aloud" or even think they are 'talented', OK, they can sing, perhaps even live, but that doesn't always matter - I mean I'm the first to admit that Tim Armstrong (Rancid / Transplants) and Mark E Smith (The Fall) and many more can't sing, but that doesn't mean they don't make (what I consider) good records. Hell, I'd probably say that many of the singers in band I like probably think that *They* can't sing.
And besides I like 'Lush' so that's my excuse for 'liking' Girls Alound
I might of missed some of the 'jokes' and I apologise for that.

No Problem - as I said, I'd like to help, it's just that it was seeming a little difficult to know how to please you....
The other thing is, is that it's hard to know where to even start, given what you said you didn't like, and its perhaps hard to not sound patronising, and suggesting things you already know, I mean, with those other bands sounding a bit grungey, I feel it would be a bit patronising to suggest things like Nirvana, Pearl Jam. Stone Temple Pilots etc, but in all honesty, you might be a mature 12 year old who might not even have been born when some of those were around, or you might be 30 and listening to them at Uni. Either way, you get my point.....
Just out of interest, do you buy, copy or download your music?

Hmmm some really great bands in there, I loved L7 especially after their appearance on "the word"
But I'd have to add:-
Sepultura
Iron maiden
Suicidal tendencies
Slayer
early megadeth (killing is my business etc)
DRI
Gangreen
Therapy?
hrm, apart from Therapy? and 1 track by Sepultura I cannnot concur :p

I'm another one for Therapy? (perhaps in more ways than one? ;) ) L7 I like too, and in addition to the word apperance you musn't forget the reading or glastonbury apperance....
The other thing was that these weren't my suggestions - although I think own albums by most of them and track by all, including Neurosis even though I'm not a fan, and don' t recomend them either.... Same as Mortician although they do have some class titles, tracklisting for example
Mortician - HACKED UP FOR BARBECUE
1 Bloodcraving (5:13)
2 Embalmed Alive (:50)
3 Cremated (1:34)
4 Three on a Meathook (3:06)
5 Brutally Mutilated (:39)
6 Deranged Insanity (2:28)
7 Cannibal Feast (1:40)
8 Blown to Pieces (:58)
9 Fog of Death (3:13)
10 Brutal Disfigurement (1:26)
11 Apocalyptic Devastation (3:13)
12 Inquisition (1:21)
13 Hacked up for Barbecue (4:18)
14 Abolition (:51)
15 Necrocannibal (3:59)
16 Ripped in Half (:25)
17 Morbid Butchery (2:01)
18 Decapitated (1:02)
19 Drilling for Brains (:49)
20 Eaten Alive by Maggots (1:53)
21 Witches' Coven (3:19)
22 Worms (:53)
23 Annihilation (1:03)
24 Mortician (3:21)
And I don't think any of these will be censored - wierd eh?
In fact don't go for anything on Relapse Records, although Exit 13 did do some odd Jazzy track, that I could never figure why relapse put it out.... Although I have just realised they put out Godflesh's stuff and I liked some of their stuff
Oh and another good site for finding new stuff is http://www.allmusic.com
In fact I now think it's better than UBL in some ways

AMG give these 'similar artists' to Avril Lavigne for instance
Similar Artists: FeFe Dobson, Lillix, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Tracy Bonham, Alanis Morissette, Michelle Branch
And Tracy Bonham is another great album... and I've never heard of Lillix - this is the problem with doing this - I'm gonna want to buy loads more CDs...:)
Edit: Actually I've never heard of FeFe Dobson either but this sounds like it might be to your taste
