Ok guys and gals. I've got some extra cash, and I want to buy a new album, but I dont know who's good out there.
I have all of Iron & Wines
I have "Do you like rock music?" by British Sea Power
I have all Broken Social scene
I have a good bit of Arcade fire.
and I have "Oh no! Oh my!"
So, from these, who should I get next?

imapiratearg · « **Reply #1 on:** 02 Apr 2008, 16:51 »

To Last.fm and look up the similar artists.

MrSteevo · « **Reply #2 on:** 02 Apr 2008, 16:56 »

How.. Did I miss such a wonderful site?

Broken_Drum · « **Reply #3 on:** 02 Apr 2008, 17:03 »

Ghost by Radical Face. Amazing album. Or you could buy One Time For All Time by 65daysofstatic, one of my favourite albums ever.

rynne · « **Reply #4 on:** 02 Apr 2008, 17:58 »

David Bowie – The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Startdust and the Spiders from Mars
Neu! – Neu!
Talking Heads – Remain in Light
Global Communication – 76:14
Coil – Love’s Secret Domain
Scott Walker – Tilt
Orbital – Orbital 2

Looking at what little you've listed, I would heartilly recommend the following, album titles in brackets:

Wolf Parade (Apologies To The Queen Mary0
Stars (Set Yourself On Fire)
Archers Of Loaf (Icky Mettle)
Final Fantasy (Has A Good Home)
Beirut (Flying Club Cup)
Bonnie "Prince" Billy (I See A Darkness)
Death From Above 1979 (Death From Above 1979)
Immaculate Machine (Fables)
Julie Doiron (Woke Myself Up)
Low (Things We Lost In The Fire)
Sloan (One Chord To Another)
Songs: Ohia (The Magnolia Electric Co.)

Rynne recommended some tremendous albums, but beyond the Bowie and Talking Heads, I wouldn't say any are similar to what you've listed.

MrSteevo · « **Reply #6 on:** 02 Apr 2008, 18:41 »

I got a listen of Radical Face and really liked it, now lets check out some of Dark Flames suggestions

Beastmouth · « **Reply #7 on:** 02 Apr 2008, 18:43 »

one of these and lots of these

Bonnie "Prince" Billy (I See A Darkness)

I was thinking about putting this in my list, too. That’s a powerful record right there.

How many "suggest me" threads do we need that all contain pretty much the exact same list of music?

To break things up I think you should spend your money on Therion's Theli, Secret of the Runes, Lemuria/Sirius B, and Gothic Kabbalah.
Also invest heavily on Opeth albums.
And some Astral Doors.

Spluff · « **Reply #10 on:** 02 Apr 2008, 19:26 »

Leviathan - Mastodon.

suitupletsgo · « **Reply #11 on:** 02 Apr 2008, 19:26 »

I seem to be the only person I know who absolutely cannot stand Opeth.

Well I was looking for a thread like "Suggest music to the person who posted above you" but I couldnt find it.

Daft pun · « **Reply #15 on:** 03 Apr 2008, 02:40 »

The obvious answer is: buy the other two British Sea Power albums! Duh.

E. Spaceman · « **Reply #16 on:** 03 Apr 2008, 03:14 »

After some heavy consideration, I have decided you should buy

Nite Versions - Soulwax
Pure Phase - Spiritualized
Making Movies - Dire Straits
Born Into Trouble As The Sparks Fly Upwards - The Silver Mt Zion Memorial Orchestra and Tra La La Band
Pornography - The Cure
This Is Hardcore - Pulp

Why not start a "suggest me" thread that isn't the same list of music? Call it "Suggestions that aren't Spiderland and Fun House" or something?

Or else do a poll of, like, that board's top 50 albums and sticky the results?

Glorfindel · « **Reply #19 on:** 03 Apr 2008, 09:49 »

Just buy The Bends and throw your other CDs away.

I whole heartedly also recommend Talking Heads - Remain in Light. Crosseyed and Painless is such a freaking great song

Particle - Launchpad has been in my mp3 player for a long while now too, give that a try for something a little different

That's why I'd said that. I was the one that uploaded it.

hehe, this is fun.

Update: Bought
Woman king - Iron and Wine
I downloaded Ghost, due to Amazon shipping costs are no fun.
and I'm looking to by Electric President's CD.

SeanBateman · « **Reply #38 on:** 06 Apr 2008, 08:32 »

Iron and Wine is boring, but if you're into them..

Check out Sea Wolf, Check out Calexico, look into Willy Mason, you should probably listen to a ton of bright eyes.

If you wanna check out sam beams roots, listen to Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams, Doug Sahm, etc.

But realistically just go get the Does it Offend you, Yeah album, "You Have No Idea What You're Getting Yourself Into"
