Ok, so there are probably a thousand threads about this already, but I couldn't find any so I'm making a new one instead. I love music, but recently I've listened a bit too much to the same stuff and now I'm a bit tired of it. Therefore, I thought I'd make a thread where people can share artists/bands/songs/albums they like! I, personally, have very inconsistent tastes in music. In no specific order, here are some things that I like: AURORA Lana Del Rey Gorillaz Kaizers Orchestra (an AMAZING band, but they only sing in Norwegian) Intro - The xx Marina and the Diamonds (especially the Electra Heart album) Two Door Cinema Club Melanie Martinez The Lovecats - The Cure Daughter Empire of the Sun - We Are the People Stoned - Dido Settle Down - Kimbra A-Punk - Vampire Weekend Bad Girls - M.I.A. Princess Chelsea Wildcat - Ratatat Clair De Lune The soundtrack from Across the Universe Breathe Me - Sia Daft Punk MS MR I had to cut half the list so it wasn't so intimidatingly long, but if people are interested I can post some more stuff that I like. Anyway, feel free to throw out some recommendations, scream at me over an artist we both like, laugh about my taste in music, or even just listen to some of the stuff I mentioned and never talk to me if you don't want to. The sky's the limit!
Some of my favourite albums in no particular order, and for a variety of reasons -Folie a Deux (Fall Out Boy) -Born in the USA (Bruce Springsteen) -Youth (Citizen) -Torches (Foster the People) -STOMACHACHES. (frnkiero andthe cellabration) -Hesitant Alien (Gerard Way) -Wildlife (La Dispute) -Anywhere But Here (Mayday Parade) -The Black Parade (My Chemical Romance) -Everything's Coming Up Roses (Night Terrors of 1927) -Soul Punk (Patrick Stump) -The Con (Tegan and Sara) -Peripheral Vision (Turnover)
I'll give you some of the "new" songs that I've discovered. Tbh 2015 has been a good year for good music for me at least MIA : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJuFdkMOP20 This is two songs in one. ATCQ : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiIjRs8M2KY They're celebrating 25 years of PITPR by making remixes from each of the track. I happen to like this one personally than the original. Fakear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiIjRs8M2KY French trip-hop artist just released a new song this year. Grimes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooWkA_-lOHA&index way better than her previous album since I do like a lot of songs here compared to the other one. Joanna Newsom: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ky9Ro9pP2gc her voice has an acquired taste but I do think she's a lyrical genius Alessia Cara: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5vUBQBykJ4 Since you like artists like Melanie and Lana you might like this rising star also I'd recommend you to listen to "Here" Beach House : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTqwzjzQo54&index=16 They actually released two albums this year and it's pretty much a back to back.

One of my fave LP's this year tbh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4-9mYrbXVI This has a Janet Jacksonesque vibe to it.
I dont know if you like "this kind of music", but if you'd like to try maybe a harder sound (rock/metal) I'd recommend these band: -Avenged sevenfold (nightmare or shepherd of fire) -Five finger death punch (basically all songs, if you try them, try Under and over it) -Papa Roach (Hollywood whore/ Last resort) -Slipknot - Disturbed(I only know their newest album but it's great, especially The vengeful ond and Open your eyes) - System of a down (toxycity/Shimmy) - Sum 41(more punky rock, try screaming bloody murderer) -rise against (give it all/prayer of the refugee) If you like these, just lemme know, I know ALOT more bands
Okay, I'll give you my favourite artists and my favourite songs by them: Half Man Half Biscuit (The Coroner's Footnote, Bad Losers) Oasis (Don't look back in anger, Half the world away) Billy Bragg (Sexuality, The busy girl buys beauty) Nirvana (The man who sold the world, Heart shaped box) Fun.

Haven't listened to any other music by the guy, but the tracks Way Out There, Frozen Pines, and Meet Me in the Woods are highlights La Dispute (Woman(Reading), I See Everything, St. Paul Missionary Baptist Church Blues, Stay Happy There) The album Wildlife is amazing, easily in my top 10 favorite albums ever.

I LOVE Green Day, MCR and more, but one of my all times favorite singer/songwriter: WOODKID. Just listen to any song, I love them ALL! But especially Run Boy Run, Iron and Conquest of Spaces!
I have a TON of favourites, but here's a few of them: - Kings of Convenience ('Misread', 'I don't know what I can save you from(Röyksopp remix)', ' I'd rather dance with you ') - New Radicals ('Mother, we just can't get enough', 'You get what you give', Someday we'll know') - Sasha (especially the album 'Airdrawndagger') - Teitur ('All my mistakes', 'Don't want you to wake up') - Deadmau5 - Gregg Alexander - Counting Crows - Röyksopp - Mew - MGMT ('Kids', 'Time to pretend') - Datsik & Excision - Vindicate
if you like lana del ray you'll probably love lykke li ( I recommend her second and third albums). 1000 forms of fear by sia is also a great album if you like sia.
I'm mainly into the pop scene, not big on much top 40 music though. I guess I'll post my favourite song by each of them too. Elva Hsiao - Indulge in Love Jolin Tsai - Play Alyssa Reid - Hurricane Lana Del Rey - Without You Lights - Same Sea Rachel Platten - Little Light Courtney Act - Ugly Aura Dione - Geronimo Cher - Believe Anastacia - Stupid Little Things The Courtesans - Blood Money Neon Hitch - Fuck U Betta Jennifer Hudson - Spotlight Helly Luv - Risk It All Adore Delano - Jump The Gun Ivy Levan - Biscuit Hilary Duff - Sparks Phew... I think that's everyone. Or, at least the main ones anyway.
Some of my favorite bands / artists & my favorite songs by them Björk - Bachelorette Fiona Apple - Left Alone PJ Harvey - Catherine Radiohead - How To Disappear Completely Kate Bush - Get Out Of My House Joni Mitchell - A Case of You Tori Amos - Blood Roses Joanna Newsom - Emily Sigur Rós - Starálfur St. Vincent - Cruel
