Title: Good CD's?
Post by: adwight on August 03, 2004, 09:14:45 am: I've decided to add to my CD collection, which I don't have very many of, and buy some more. Could you guys give me a few hints on to which CD's are good, and which are bad?

Post by: Nix on August 04, 2004, 12:10:41 am: I rather like Franz Ferdinand's selftitled debut album. It's not hard rock, but it's pretty good. it reminds me of the band Cake, but Scottish.
BTW, Cake - Fashion Nugget

David Bowie's Reality album sounds a lot better than his previous album Heathen.
www.djkristoff.com has some good free DJ Mixes online, techno music.

Post by: Dough with Fish on August 04, 2004, 12:49:08 am: Anything by TOOL, and A Perfect Circle. Two of the best bands ever, if not the best bands ever, right there.

Queens of the Stoneage
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Seether
Nine Inch Nails
Melissa Auf Du Maur (sp?)
Slipknot
Orgy
Hatebreed
Metallica
Bush
Greenday
Megadeath
Slayer
Pantera
HIM
Super Joint Ritual
American Head Charge
System of a Down
Beck
Ginger Jake
Blur....

That should keep you buys a while.

EDIT: I also forgot my friend ComradeF. He does techno, but it's still some really good ****. Goto www.comradef.com for all the info, and some good downloads.

Post by: kasperl on August 04, 2004, 03:31:20 am: Flogging Molly as mentioned above is good, think Irish folk + beer + electric guitars + beer + whiskey + drums + beer + beer.

If you like Flogging Molly, try Dropkick Murphy's too.

Get the Manitou album, and the Fall Of The Leafe album. Excellent Finnish metal. EVERYONE GET THESE! They're outstanding.

Also:
The Datsuns (hard rock)
Supersuckers (hard rock)
Iron Maiden (metal)
Nightwish (metal)
Audioslave (hard rock)
Rage Against The Machine (political rap-rock)
Stravinsky (awesome classical noise)
Dragonforce (ridiculously fast melodic metal with daft singing and solos)
(early) Pantera (metal)
The Obsessed (sort of stoner/doom metal fronted by Wino - everything he's done is great)
Kyuss (QOTSA blokes' earlier band)
FAITH NO MORE!!!!!! (amazingly good rock)
Arch Enemy (death metal)
Anything by AC/DC from the 70s (their 80's and later stuff ain't so hot), particularly Highway to Hell and Back in Black
the Probot album (Dave Grohl's tribute to 80's underground metal)
Spirit Caravan (groovy doom riffage from Wino)

That's a good start for ya! ;)
