Come On Then............

I need some new songs to download.

Progressive rock (NOT Linkin Park etc).

Also Accoustic such as Bob Dylan, Pete yorn etc

Any good sounds out there?

[Radiohead]

get the new muse album
the new shins album
grandaddy - sumday or sophtware slump
modest mouse - lonesome crowded west
cowboy junkies - the trinity sessions
the new pete yorn is alright but musicforthemorningafter is better
jack johnson - brushfire camptales (or something like that)
beck - mutations
travis - the invisible band

[Kris Hodgson]

Beer - Reel Big Fish

Great Ska song

And if you like acoustic, download the acoustic version of Foo Fighters - Times like These. It's way better than the album version.

[smokiechimp]

cool. good stuff so far.

I have Beer Kris. Thanks for the foofighters one though :D

I'm after individual songs to download rather than Albums.

If you like acoustic stuff Smokie get any of the accoustic songs Incubus did. And of course Nirvana Unplugged.

Awww man i thought incubus sucked until I borrowed 'Make Yourself'

good band.

[DangerMouse]

Like accoustic?

Download anything by "The Sundays".

Song titles:

"Here's where the story ends"
"I kicked a Boy"
"Wild Horses"


Thats just to name a few. They go a little more electric on their last album "Monochrome". But their first 2 are very good accoustic albums.

The lead singer has the voice of an angel and is one of my favorite female singers o all-time.

[Faithless Eye]

I couldn't bring myself to download individual songs...it feels cheap for some reason. Any truly great music is better in the context of its album.

[_manuel_]

Iron Maiden - The Wicker Man
Mago de Oz - dime con quien andas
Apocalyptica - (Metallica covers played by a cello trio)

Pretty much anything by these guys is good, although metal is a very hit or miss genre. You either love it or hate it.

These are easily available on kazaa.

Downloading entire albums defeats the purpose of file sharing. You're just stealing. Go and buy the album you cheap bastard.

[pixiness]

POE - Hey Pretty
I'm Not a Virgin Anymore


Conjure 1 - Center of the Sun

Word. Downloading tunes is all about getting tunes that if you bought the album you'd only listen to the one song because the rest of the album is crap. If you DL entire albums that you'd normally buy if there was no such thing as MP3s makes you exactly what the record companies think the rest of us are....

[Kris Hodgson]

Exactly, or downloading songs you already bought, but want to put on a mix CD.

[sphericthor]

Anyway back to the subject

Anything by Ryan Adams or The Strokes is pretty good

[smokiechimp]

To qoute Kris: "You Cheap Bastard" Why spend 6 hours of your life waiting to download an album as Idaho says that your only going to like a few songs of when you could easily pop down the shops and buy it if you REALY want it that bad.

I like new tunes from pretty much ANY band as long as it isn't Dance or Nu-Metal or polished pop.

Thanks for the suggestions so far. Would apriciate more song 'Titles' though. :)

[IdahoMR2man]

Well fine then!

Get Nirvana - Where did you sleep last night

If you like that then I'll know more to suggest.

Oh and believe it or not but you might like Smash Mouth's Waste.

[sphericthor]

I'm listening to "Bring Me The Disco King by David Bowie" right now and it seems to fit into the kind of music your looking for

[IdahoMR2man]

Ah. Speaking of David Bowie, you might like Golden Years.

[smokiechimp]

I LOVE the occasional retro stuff by the way guys. 60's and 70's stuff

Chic - Freakout
Pilot - It's Magic
Mungo Jerry - In The Summertime
David Bowie - Let's dance
The Osmonds - Crazy Horses

I don't mind the old stuff! :D thanks Sphericthor.

I'm not gay i promise! :p

[sphericthor]

The song just fitted in to wht you were looking for so I recommended it, no trouble at all

[Kris Hodgson]

Don't You Just Know It - Huey Smith

One of my all time favorite songs. It plays during the end credits in the movie Snatch. It's such a cheesy old song, but it just gets me grooving every time I listen to it. Definetly check that out.

[IdahoMR2man]

:lol: this song is so ridiculous it's great!

[Kris Hodgson]

That's what I mean! It just gets in your head and before you know it, you're bouncing along to it. I love it. Plus it's in Snatch, a kick ass movie.

[IdahoMR2man]

Yeah you'll definately like that song Smokie.

[smokiechimp]

GOT IT! :funny:

[Kris Hodgson]
