Pearl/Flogging/Coheed Some help please

<< < (4/5) > >>

Johnny C:
Clearly you have never encountered a Sufjan Stevens album. And also, the new Flaming Lips record has songs with much, much, much longer names.

soak:
The best PJ song is their cover of Crazy Mary. You can find it on Sweet Relief: A Benefit for Victoria Williams.

Ernest:
Pearl Jam is okay.  Some good, a lot of mediocre.  Flogging Molly is a great band, but I can't see how anyone can seriously listen to Coheed and Cambria and think "This is good music."  They're just so appallingly awful.  It's like they took all the bad cliches from the genres they're trying to emulate and used them as often as they could.

haziegirl:
I have two Flogging Molly Albums:  Drunken Lullabies and Swagger.  Personally I like Swagger better, it's an earlier album, and you can hear a LOT more of the Irish folk influence in it than you can in Drunken Lullabies.

HFrankenstein:
I am a recent Coheed fan (about four months young).  Since their repertoire has a continuity across it, I started with The Second Stage Turbine Blade and went in order from there.  I think In Keeping Secrets is my favorite right now, I love the opening battle scene, but Good Apollo: Volume 1 I also like a lot because it has such an operatic feel to it.  It really flows like it has a beginning, middle, and end.  I find that irresistible.

As for Flogging Molly, you could seriously start anywhere.  I can't think of anything from them that I don't like.

EDIT: Addendum - My first Flogging Molly disc was Drunken Lullabies.  It holds a special place in my hearts.  Go ahead and start with that.
