I'm loving this thread!
Here's a few picks that I hope you guys enjoy:

Morphine
It's a trio with no guitar: just bass (tuned down, played with 2 strings and a guitar slide), drums and baritone/tenor saxophone (sometimes Dana Colley plays 2 at once!). At first the absence of a guitar may seem odd. First time I heard it, I got kind of confused. Now it's one of my favorite bands.
>>>Listen to: Have a lucky day, Cure for pain, You look like rain, I'm free now... just choose one!


Animal Liberation Orchestra
Chill, fun music, played by some talented musicians.
>>>Listen to: Fly, Maria, Roses & clover


Eels
Original and multi-sounding indie rock.
>>> Listen to: Bus stop boxer, Beginner's luck, Fresh feeling, Mr. E's beautiful blues


Let me know if you liked these and I'll try to post some more!

Hate the video but I like the cover.

These are crazy japanese guys' attempt at playing the Brazilian genre of "Pagode", a sort of cheesy downtempo samba, with usually either "romantic" or "libidinal" lyrics.

And these guys are singing in ""Portuguese".

They rule!

I checked these all out; great music worthwhile of looking it up!

My favourite was Eels.

@ Walnuts and The Chef: cool stuff.

There is plenty of what I've heard here that have become regular music that I listen on my day to day life.

On of my favourite bands from Montreal (hard to get used to the vocals, but here it goes):

A Silver Mount Zion

Here's a band from Japan, the Land of Weird Shit. Sigh - "The Transfiguration Fear."

Their newest album has almost every instrument you can think of. This song sounds a combination of Mega Man riffs, circus music and black metal vocals. Crazy album cover too - some old pregnant queen handing out/collecting dead babies.

Boner-inducing band:

Warpaint

Post: #89

Good reccomendations guys:

This next band is a stoner/doom metal band. They sound like they're from the 70s or something but came out in the 2000s Think black sabbath etc.

Great band. My favourite song is Undertow.

Witchcraft has a way of recording that makes it sound "old" somehow...

They remind me of Colour Haze:

He's from Harlem and is talking about candy, coming down and has a styrofoam cup in the video?
They don't know about this

This band is great to relax to, they only have one album but it's dope. Perfect for chilling on a nice and sunny day. Ignore how fucking effeminate and ultra indie the music video is. It might just make you puke.

Yeah my friend showed me once and I didn't believe them it was from the 2000s instead of the 70s.

that colour haze sounds cool.

(Post-Metal genre)

Cult of Luna





Rosetta





Neurosis





Aggaloch

Post: #98

Good stuff amour fou. Neurosis is one of my favourite bands. Check out isis if you havent already. Year of No light, Angel Eyes, and 5ive are similar too.
ISIS



ANGEL EYES


short song but their albums 01 and "something to do with death" are amazing.
YEAR OF NO LIGHT



5IVE

Post: #99

I had the pleasure of watching Isis live in Birmingham, UK back in 2006. I was exactly in front of the singer. He was cool, I talked to him a bit after the gig.

I'll be checking those others! I really like the genre.

The High & Mighty...2 Jewish dudes from Philadelphia. Classic shit right here that nobody really knows about and this is coming from someone who hates 95% of East Coast rap. Eastern Conference records had some good shit back in the day
