Recommend me some music
schimmy:
Heh, music journalism sites, I find, rarely have the same opinion as me, so there's very little point in reading them. And, anyway, unlike TMT, most music journalism doesn't tell you what bands are similar to the one they're reviewing. Or, for that matter (I find, especially in the case of PF) the actual sound of the music is rarely talked about in much detail. From reading purely PF, someobdy could be lead to believe that Rather Ripped and Murray Street are similar albums.
It'd be just swell if people's recomendations were more like La Creme's. It's much easier to find out what I should look for first. And, most importantly, there aren't 3000 bands to sift through.
schimmy:
Yes, like I said before, I've checked out Neko Case, Louis Logic and several others. It's just that there's so many artists there, and most of them have several albums. Each of these albums is considered to be their 'best' by different journalism sites. And then there's which song on those album's is the best, and most representative of their music style. The bands on the whole haven't been compared to the bands in my list, which results in me just guessing how much I may like them over other recommended bands, so I don't know who to try first.
At the moment, it's going to take ages to go through all the recomendations, and download a couple of tracks. Those tracks may be totally awful compared to the rest of their stuff, so I miss out on what is potentially a great band.
You see the problem with just listing bands, no?

Althou part of me wouldn't be suprised if they happened to be the same person. Kinda a Clark Kent/Superman thing.
