if you do decide to try venetian snares, i recommend listening to Rossz csillag alatt született first. it's one of his more 'accessible' albums

Not reccomended if you're a complete outsider. Get yourself in a weird mood by listening to Aphex Twin and Squarepusher, then some proper oldschool jungle like Joyriders to get yourself used to the over-repetition of the Amen.

Whilst I'm talking about Snares-man, though, let me just say that there is plenty of stuff ever faster/weirder than him in the genre. Xanopticon and Dev/Null especially.

I'm gonna be weird and name an oldie band - The Guess Who.

They are a great folk band and an amazing rock band (Even if they don't do much rock music). Plus, they're Canadian - all the better.

If I had to recommend an album, I would say "The Very Best of Guess Who", even if it's not a technical album, because it has all thier best songs.

just found my self some vans off the wall IX. comps are fun :)

so: (title - artist - genre - "lyrics") (comments in brackets)
The Latest Plague - from the first to last - heavy rock/emoish. bass heavy. - "fake faces everywhere i see fake people looking back at me, sit down, dont tell me, where i dont belooooooooong"
--
Lozee Rose - the draft - grunge metal stuff. he smokes. - "got 25 in the back, 3 on me you know.. 5 cigarettes gonna have to last the night you know.."
--
Monsters - matchbook romance - clappy-funktacular-slidey-whoabig-emo - "we are, we are the shaken, we are the monsters, underneath your b-e-e-ed" (you should know this one yall)
--
The Ransom - escape the fate (WICKEDAWESOMEBAND) - screamosexy - "We have the ransom.. tell me how that you can swim when ropes are wrapped around your limbs" (this song is damn good, one of my favorites on the comp. other good songs by the band include the flood and guillotine)
--
Dirty City - Voltera - sleaze metal - "suit made from the skin.. from all his beautiful girrrrrrrrrrrrrlllls...."
--
The Gold Song - The Bouncing Souls - punky happy - "hey, hey, hey, hey" "i heard someone saaaaa-aaaaaaaaay, that nothing gold can staaaaaa-aaaaaaay, but theres a love in all our souls and it shines like gold.."
--
We are always searching - I Am Ghost - keyboards and metal, sounds like vamps - *cool melodic metal guitars* *keyboards* "Her beauty watches over me, so let us hide and we'll dance the night away." (oh, and it has both a guy and a girl singing.)
--
On Again Off Again - The Riverboat Gamblers - creepywhiney, just add bop - "It's 6 a.m., out in the clinic line.It's freezing cold, you may get told come back another time. They can help you, but they can't help you for free." (pretty cool song, drug heavy)
--
Oh So Serious - Paradise Boys - boppy dance rock what? - "its all in my he-ead, i said its all in my heart. and yesterday i started thinking, i should have been falling apart. well you think think think that youre something special, so you think think youve got hope. and maybe this time i could be different actually no no no i wont." (kickass song. has a girl singing too, plus bassy drums and clatter-ish synth, give it a go)
--
--
Robert L. Borden - Kamin_Sequence - loopy techno earsex. fuck. ing. great. - *ambient awesome, no words.* (this song is awesome to walk to, the drums are all *bumpbumpbump* at just the right time. id happily rave to it aswell. oh yes i would. the bass is very fun too, bendy and bouncy.. all in all a wonderful song for those into electronic, rave, ambient, walking, or relaxing music. IT IS ALL OF THOSE!)
--
--
Little Maggots - The Matches - the most twitchy rock imaginable - "little maggots, maggots whos parents parents fed me full.. are grown and living, inhabiting, comfortably my skull" "ah HAH. HAH." "greoaw!" "all in all and alls for: NOthing. zero." (fun song to listen to, great tune and awesome feel)
--

i feel like ive missed some other good ones... but thats enough to keep you going. some good bands and some flukes. LISTEN TO THE KAMIN_SEQUENCE ONE IF THAT ONE ONLY!
enjoy.

THE PRESETS!!!

Not really a band though
Clickme
spoiler

Orange- N cannot be spoken, or even thought about in my household. If my parents ever found out that I have played N since the cleansing, my life would be ruined. I keep the game in a multi-passworded .rar on a USB flash drive inside a locked boron alloy container that requires two keys to open (I keep one under the 64th hammer in my piano, and the other one in a small section of removable ceiling in the corner of the attic) hidden in a wall compartment lined with aluminium foil to prevent sonar detection behind my 375 kg cupboard, which is bolted to the floor - the only way to reach it is to abseil outside the fourth floor window and use a screwdriver to unfasten the screws holding the secret brick in place on the opposite side of the wall, but the screwdriver must be a specific type like the one I own, since if any other screwdriver comes into contact with the screws, the entire building will explode, as will a seperate charge placed inside the boron alloy container, rendering the USB useless. Even once the container is retrieved, attemping to open it without the arming pin in place (which is kept inside the battery compartment of my Maglite) will cause the water reservoirs lining the container to burst and react with the caesium lining, causing the container to burst into flames - the only way to prevent this is to use the arming pins to shut off the reservoirs with a sliding steel door. The USB itself contains an accelerometer linked to an explosive charge, meaning that if the USB detects its own movement speed as being greater than 5 cm/s, it will explode - any person attempting to steal it would have to move at a uselessly slow speed. Once plugged into a computer, the USB will upload a ghost virus onto it, leaving no traces. Only the right password can deactivate this virus, and if it is left on the computer for more than six hours, it will format all drives.

As you can see, I take my N playing very seriously.

Guiseppi- I'd much rather watch animals get boned in the ass.

Yanni- If it's glad, it's not rape.

Tsukatu- I refuse to use throw-away bags for such a frequent purpose as buying groceries. Instead, I've collected the hair of my two pet dogs and have woven them together into an all-natural, 100% environmentally friendly bag that I bring with me everywhere. And when I buy products that come in glass and plastic containers, I track down the company that packages them and ship back their containers so that they don't take up space in landfills.


Yeah, I use plastic.

Tsukatu- I hear Ebony Online is great, too. Cum save your princess, my lord!

Ska- UR MUM LIKE IS SPICY

Ska- why d i get the feeling what i typed will end up in the quote depository; or worse: someone's sig.

KinGAleX- I did it on the couch a little while ago.

Zeph- I got too pissed at the knife in the end so I just broke the wood on my knee

Is Neutral Milk Hotel's song "Holland, 1945" the same one in mintnut's map? because it's a pretty good song...

EDIT: more bands:

I'm just listening to Porcupine Tree at the moment, only heard a couple of their songs but they sound freaking good.

Also, Kings of Leon.

I was expecting something more like Caravan Palace from that description. They're a pretty obscure little French band. Worth a listen at least once. More songs here: http://www.myspace.com/caravanpalace
