Help me buy stuff!

Orange_Iris

Hmm..it seems people are wanting to buy me presents for some reason? However I cannot think of any new bands whose musical stylings I crave. That's where you come in.
You, yes YOU! Gimme suggestions for bands & CD's to get for Chrimblesnatch.
Here's a tiny slice of my current playlist so you know what wavelength I'm on...

Alkaline Trio
Death From Above 1979
Electric Six
Green Day
Gorillaz
Guano Apes
Mad Capsule Markets
Nine Inch Nails
Papa Roach
Rage Against The Machine
Rammstein
Queens Of The Stone Age
Slipknot
Static X

3500 song playlist just isn't enough.

BoobC

Well there's a lot of MTV/Kerrang crap on that list. But going the the look of it yer just getting into Metal (RATM, StaticX etc). The following aren't really like what you've listed but are a good step into "proper" metal.
Katatonia - Viva Emnptiness
Faith no More - Angel Dust
Anathema - Alternative 4
Green Carnation - The Quiet Offspring
The Crown - Deathrace King

Also for a more relaxed vibe:
Porcupine Tree - In Absentia
Pink Floyd - Animals
Thine - In Therapy
Alice in Chains - Unplugged
Red Sparowes - At the Soundless Dawn

melekalikimaka

Atari Teenage Riot
Dir En Grey
Lords OF Acid
AFI
Taxicab heroes

Godspeed You Black Emperor!

Tower Records has a couple of their albums. Best music I've heard this year (not that it's that new, but I hadn't heard of it before a few months ago).

get the roadrunner united album

Karl Hungus

Arcturus

Everything else pales in comparison. Get yourself La Masquerade Infernale, which is honestly one of the greatest albums ever made. Wild, eclectic, crazy stuff.

eljono

My suggestions are
Korn
System of a Down
Marilyn Manson
Tool
Dream Theater
Smashing Pumkins
Pink Floyd
Audioslave
Biffy Clyro

BoobC: Yeah I know there's a lot of MTV/Kerrang "Stuff" but that's why I'm asking, I need to branch out! Anathema...hmm I've heard some of their stuff, it's good! Alice in Chains, maybe not. Thanks

melekalikimaka: Atari Teenage Riot (formerly Nintendo Teenage Riot?) Heard good stuff about them. AFI, how could I forget, thanks for the memory jog.

Goodshape: Godspeed you Black Emperor. Damn, if I saw this I'd buy it just for the title, I'll look out for it.

eljono: Have or had most of that list, but hey you seem to know my taste. Except Tool.

Karl Hungus: Good name, keep my eyes out.

Fajitas: Agree with you about Kings of Leon but not much else.

...I need to lie down now.

Karl Hungus

Oh, and I'm suprised nobody has recommended Dream Theater yet, so I'm recommending them now. Get yourself some Dream Theater.
