Lincoln Durham has an absolutely delicious fusion of blues and southern gothic with healthy helping of punk rhythms and alt-rock beats mixed in. Imagine if you will Brothter Dege mixed in with a grittier version of White Stripes.
He is also an impressive artist to see live (as are most one person bands).
This one is interesting (to me at least). Beats Antique bills itself as and "experimental world fusion and electronic music group. Basically this is just a posh way of saying "light electronic dance music with a distinctive Middle-Eastern flavour. (Middle-Eastern Dance Electronic Dance Music? MEDEDM? 
)
In the previous blog, i briefly mentioned two big influences, that of shadowrun, and the other, music. Music, is and always will be my choice of drug. Most of the love, came well, as a measure of solace. For many folks. A songs a song, and I get it it, even if I don't. Because my senses don't work like most peoples. I've been falsely labelled, misdiagnosed, and a variety of other things on that, but its, again, another topic for another day.
This was a delightful find that practically came out of nowhere for me. Very unique sound with a mixture of what Wikipedia describes as alt-country, neofolk/folk rock, and industrial(!), with a dash of gospel and Native American music. To my ears it sounds like the lyrical themes of traditional gospel, with the arrangement of alternative country (*not* the twangy, rhinestone-cowboy stuff!), and the sound of melodic doom metal (see Sinking Hands, Winter Shaker, Swedish Purse, and
Some bluegrass-folk music courtesy of Canada this time around. Features blisteringly fast banjo (is there any other kind?) which counterpoints lead singer Nate Hilt's rather raspy voice quite well. Quite nice if you are into that sort of thing.
A rather nice selection of deliciously grungy, hard al-rock. Special thanks to Darkhanos for the suggestion!
Some more dance-rock/dance-punk style music from New York this time around.Yet another band Significant Other introduced me to. It is quite energetic with an enjoyable combination of indie rock and a dash electronic dance/synthpop mixed in. Some of their later bts have a darker, angrier feel to it (cf. Stir the Blood), but all in all it is quite an enjoyable, upbeat listen.
Brown Bird - Fingers to the Bone
Some deliciously epic instrumental "film traileresqe" music here. I am not sure of what the exact name of this genre is, but it has an epic orchestral, sweeping feel to it. Mr.(?) Puumala here is certainly one of the best of the bunch my coworkers and I have run across on the production floor thanks to Pandora Radio...
Some tasty blues-rock/metal this time around. I was introduced to them by my fellow co-workers on the production floor. Left Lane Cruiser has a pretty heavy hard-rock sound infused into some Mississippi hill country blues. It makes for a good compromise for those of use on the production floor that like to listen to country music, and those of us (myself included) that prefer hard rock
More Avatar goodness!
This certainly is an interesting album, filled with a pleasingly wide variety of influences and sounds. I remember an interview somewhere (YouTube perhaps?) a while back with Johannes Eckerström, the lead singer, saying the band did not want to get stuck making the same sounds and music again and again. They succeeded quite well here; a veritable cornucopia of different styles here!
On the power metal cheesy fun scale from "At home in the 80's" to "Featured on the box art for a graphics card", Gloryhammer certainly pegs the metre. The first song is about a wizard leading an army of undead unicorns which sets the tone for everything that follows.
A bit of neo-psychedelic rock here. Think "Doors" mixed with "Black Rebel Motorcycle Club". If you enjoyed Black Rebel Motorcycle Club from (much) earlier, odds are you will enjoy this.
Not much to say here as there is not much available on the 'tubes about this band. It is composed of sole musician Ben Sharp, and is some quite nice instrumental prog metal.
A bit of folk pop and blues rock today. Barns apparently is a bit of an up and coming musician, so there is not much available now. He has one EP released currently, and I must say I love his voice.
Oddly enough I discovered him though a video ad on YouTube, which has to be up there on my list of "serendipitous times to disable adblock".
Here is hoping for more in the upcoming years.
Celldweller is a bit of an interesting beast. Very similar to Blue Stalhi previously with the electronic industrial metal. Celldweller expands on it though with a healthy dose of orchestrical composition with measures of D'n'B and dubstep mixed in. If you enjoyed Blue Stalhi, here is an extra serving of that electronic metal goodness.
'AquaSonic, the world's first aquatic music ensemble...'
There's a neat idea here, but it clearly needs to go back to the drawing-board.
