New Artist Thread

[Retep]

Use this thread to introduce new artists to some of the other forum members, try to only name newer or unknown artists.

I think everyone should look up the new band The Worsties who are alternative and The Study who are indie and soft rock.

[Greenskull]

Cobra Starship :D

[xXHorrorHippoXx]

Im also surprised by the lack of people who have heard of Protest the Hero. Best band ever. Period.

[Greenskull]

3oh3 is like the best band ever. Fairly new.

[Harflin]

3oh3 is like the best band ever. Fairly new.

I really only liked Don't trust me, I don't know if the others I listened to were covers or what, but they didn't sound anything like the same band.

I know what you mean at first I thought Chokechain was a cover but learned it was a song they wrote, besides that though I like the song I'm Not Your Boyfriend and Starstrukk. Also some pretty good artists in this thread most I like and also I was always wondering who sang that SF4 song so answer found, as for a new artist as many of you know I like MGMT they are still pretty new and are gaining momentum pretty good band with diffrent sounding music and awesome lyrics / beats in my opinion.

[xXHorrorHippoXx]

YA MGMT is bomb yo.

The Blackout is another one I thought of. You emo-band lovers might even like them. :P

I forced myself to listen to MGMT. Not my thing.

[xXHorrorHippoXx]

MGMT is anyones thing. You cant not like MGMT.

[Retep]

I can't tell if your using sarcasm or not Hippo, and i'm not suprised you don't like it Green since it's not really as up beat as your music seems to be, not many people seem to like them since they are somewhat considered stoner music and since their diffrent sounding compared to what is considered "mainstream" now.

[xXHorrorHippoXx]

No no, Im not being sarcastic. I love MGMT, and everyone I know...well except Greenskull, enjoys atleast Electric Feel.

Personally, I like Kids the best, but alot of their music is so catchy and creative. :P

[Retep]

I personally prefer Future Refletions and Weekend Wars along with Kids but a lot of my friends only like Electric Feel so :(

[AjentJ]

ManOwaR! These guys are AMAZING!
Other good unknown bands include: Annihilator, Stormtroopers of Death (S.O.D.), Flight of the Conchords, Meshuggah, Bruce Dickinson, Hammerfall, Tenacious D, Dokken, Sepultura, Pantera and Type O Negative.

[xXHorrorHippoXx]

Mike, Meshuggah, Hammerfall, Tenacious D and Pantera are all well known...and Type O Negative.

retard.

[Retep]

Geez no need for hate music supposed to make you mellow also found another band called Awaken, Northwind pretty good overall sound very professional too for being local.

[Scorcher111]

Here's one I bet no one outside the Ottawa Area has heard of:
Distant Society
http://www.purevolume.com/distantsociety They have a couple songs there, two for free download.

[Retep]

Just listened to a new band last night named Anberlin, amazing vocals and it's not screamo at all like some of my music definatley look at Disappear and Feel Good Drag by them.

[Scorcher111]

I've heard of them, seen a few people with T-Shirts here and there to, never really given them a listen though.

[Retep]

Really? I have never heard about them before that night when some girl was playing her IPod and played the album New Surrender, I now have that CD and it's really a good listen, also another side band i'm listening to is In This Moment who I first listened to on Rock Band and then watched at Warped Tour, very solid band overall although I doubt they really have a mainstream appeal still it's worth downloading a song or two of theirs.

[xXHorrorHippoXx]

In This Moment is really good.

I found a techno-dethcore band called We Butter Our Bread With Butter, and I find them amusing.

[Scorcher111]

There's The Glitch Mob, They do Glitch Hop, which is (imo) kinda like the Hip-Hop of Techno.

Trophy Scars, different but good!

The vocals kinda kill it for me, though not as bad in Anna Lucia

The vocals take a bit to get used to, but I actually like it. It's a nice change.

[Scorcher111]

They've been creeping onto my iPod lately, New Surrender is a good album but other than Godspeed I'm really not liking Cities...

The Exies, Lacuna Coil, Gavin Rossdale, Lostprophets, and Incubus are all really good bands.

[xXHorrorHippoXx]

The Exies, Lacuna Coil, Gavin Rossdale, Lostprophets, and Incubus are all really good bands.

The Exies are really the only unknown band there, but I agree, theyre really good.

Incubus also as some good songs!

[DoubleForte]

Spoon and Phoenix take up a fair portion of my ipod these days.

[Greenskull]

I haven't heard of any of those, so they are all unknown to me.

[SourNotHardcore]

I'm an Indie/80s guy. For Indie I say you guys check out The Helio Sequence

YouTube- The Helio Sequence - Keep Your Eyes Ahead

As for a great 80s band, I recommend The Smiths:

YouTube- The Smiths - "Handsome Devil"

[DoubleForte]

Hell yes, the Smiths are wicked, I love em.

[Scorcher111]

Came across this guy recently, loving his music :D
YouTube- Pretty Lights - Hot Like Sauce
YouTube- Finally Moving Remix - Pretty Lights
YouTube- Pretty Lights - Try To Remember

[SourNotHardcore]

Well it's not really a new band, but I'm posting it for the sake of how awesome this band is. They even got David Bowie in this song LIVE.

YouTube- David Bowie & The Arcade Fire - Wake Up

[BladesofBlood]

stratovarius is a good band

[Retep]

Omg I love Bowie, such an innovative artist for not only his time but even til this day; I've also heard of that Arcade Fire band on Current TVs Backstage Pass show pretty interesting sound. As for some new band I highly reccomend Neon Trees, very easy to listen and catchy songs; their gaining popularity now due to the single Animals but the whole Habits album is good and only $7.99 on iTunes.
