Post a link to a song the rest of us might like...

[Master Ray]

So, I'm always up for hearing some new music, let's get some links going here...

I'll open with the title track of the new Manic Street Preachers album, 'Rewind The Film', which is oddly and mostly sung by Richard Hawley... a gorgeous tune that wouldn't be out of place on an NMA album... whaddya think?

No rules to this new thread, but if you can say a few words about it, all the better.  Feedback would be also appreciated.

So, what tunes to you want to lay on the rest of us?

I do like the idea of this thread.... always looking for new stuff.

Had a listen to that Manics song and on first listen found it quite sad mind you that might be Richard Hawleys voice (love Soldier On). Not quite getting the NMA album fit thing but p'raps that's more of a empathy/story kinda connection?

Something I've got quite into lately is Placebo - Too Many Friends:

Maybe this should go into the Forum-v-Facebook thread  . But I do think it's a valid commentary on the one dimensional nature of the whole digital communication thing.

Just to lighten things up... How about this purely for the moshing pogoing fun of it - give it a minute or so then it kicks in:

Hey, Anna... love the Placebo track, been into them since the first album... can't wait for the new album next week... and that Dropkicks Murphy song? Brilliant... I might have that when I die and my coffin slides into the crematorium...

Gotta say, I'm a bit perplexed about why a thread about new music should go into the F vs FB forum...

The Manics thing is, IMO, just a beautiful song with a shitload of melancholy... like so many NMA songs... that's all.

Hope you're well!  Post some other tracks!

[Jibberish]

I'm a big fan of north American punk rock, so how about a couple that you may not be familiar with.

Dillinger Four - Folk Song. Minneapolis' finest. I flew from London to Minnesota to see these guys 'cos I thought they would never come to he UK again; they came to the UK a year later. Sigh. Still, I love this band:

Propagandhi - Today's Empires, Tomorrow's Ashes. Best band ever to come outta Canada. Period.

"I might have that when I die and my coffin slides into the crematorium..." - yep me too!

"Gotta say, I'm a bit perplexed about why a thread about new music should go into the F vs FB forum..." - just thought the song (not thread) fitted that discussion!

"The Manics thing is, IMO, just a beautiful song with a shitload of melancholy... like so many NMA songs... that's all" - Gotcha.

"Post some other tracks!" - Will do idc right now in a classical vibe tho' Fur Elise & Toccata in D minor last 2 I listened to!!!

@ Berko-Kev: Ska/reggae type stuff not usually my cup of tea but liking that Movin On song - will have a proper listen tomorrow when can crank it up, bit late tonight miserable neighbours would be banging on the door within seconds!

Here's one by the excellent Glasvegas, 'Daddy's Gone', great lyrics and a truly gorgeous tune...

Well, here we go...I've no idea if these are well-known and embarrassingly old news now, as I'm not at all hooked into the music press.  It's all about what I enjoy at first encounter, usually bouncing thru links (like this forum).

Electronic stuff - soulful and relaxed, great to listen to

Rock/metal/ish

Once it really gets going, 1:10ish, the only description is 'mighty'

Hacktivist - Elevate
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFUizeNi7SI
Not much of a video but a great listen

Tempus Fusion - The Baying of the Wolf]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFik4w1_L-w

Hip-hop - I grew up on early hip-hop (not the guns-drugs-and-hos thing) and I keep looking out for the intelligent stuff....kind of difficult to find, mostly

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - Neon Cathedral
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKTQexLS9wE
Great lyrics, really poignant, a real beauty

Hilltop Hoods - Lights Out
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zB-XQpSr0ks
Great Australian hip-hop from a go-back-to-all-the-time album

Astronautalis - Lift The Curse
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgYsEN2lobg

A few others that spring to mind....

Wintergatan - Sommarfagel

Insanely clever, just a joy to listen to

Jesse Younan - Queeny

Beautiful lyrics, beautiful music, by a now-dead guitarist

Woods of Ypres - I Was Buried In Mount Pleasant Cemetery
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Y0WKslm-3k
Love this song, video, the works - sadly, the frontman died last year

Hope some folks give them a listen...I'd like to know what people think, how you respond to them, if at all...

Yay, thanks for posting this one ldopas. I'm a big fan of Kings X, but I haven't yet got round to checking out any of Dug's (or Ty's if it comes to that) solo stuff, and I have been meaning to. Have you got Dug's new album by any chance?

[Tony S]

Here's a band I only discovered earlier this year. this was the first single off their Nine Lives album;

Von Hertzen Brothers - Flowers and Rust
