And of course, El Ultimo de la Fila, one of the best Spanish bands ever.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uf-roYK0tXY

This song brings me soooooo many memories. :wub2:

 

OMG, my dear Nejma, I'm glad to know you love El último de la Fila, they're my passion, the best spanish band for me! (aviones plateados is my fav song, I've heard it a million times and it still makes me cry... snif...). :thumb_yello:

 

Another EUDLF video:

I also like Amaral and Los Rodriguez!

 

Three bands more that I love:

 

- Fito & Fitipaldis, a rock'n'roll band (not a great video but an amazing song...)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9AoxczFscI

 

- Radio Futura, a band from the 80's:

 

- M-Clan (oh, what a good song!)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rG3uPPUKSJE

 

And, of course, Manolo García, ex-El último de la Fila member:

 

Two of the most famous bands today in Spain (but I don't really like them...):

 

- La oreja de van gogh:

- El canto del loco:

I'm sorry, is that an artist or a song or something 'cause where I'm from that word's considered offensive, maybe it's different in other places...

 

I better answer this: Well, it's because when they started out (Nik & Jay) many people thought it was a band called "Nigger Jay".. Nothing rude at all.. And in one of their songs, they sing their names like: Nigger nigger Jay-ii! So, nothing offensive really :thumb_yello:

 

The word "and/&" (danish) is equal to the sound "or/er"..

I think some of you are being too hard on our American music! I mean, sheesh, we may not put out as many good bands as England, but we've still got alot gems!

 

I'll admit, most of my fave bands come from the UK, too, but there are some also some freaking awesome American bands.

 

Have you all forgotten, too, that Mika is half American? I should think not! :P

Well, these are just some British musicians I like, not necessarily what's actually popular (I don't follow the pop charts these days... XD; *teh granny*)...

 

Muse - Sing for Absolution

This is one of my favourite songs of theirs. Unfortunately, it doesn't showcase Matt Bellamy's lovely falsetto all that much, but it's a gorgeous song nonetheless.

 

Depeche Mode - Enjoy the Silence

This is the song that got me into Depeche Mode! If you're into synthpop, you'll probably like this.

 

Skunk Anansie -

This song used to be on the radio all the time when I was a kid, but it's still fabulous, even today. Their other songs tended to be a bit louder *LOL* but this is one of my favourites of theirs.

 

Brian Eno -

Blah, I really wanted to put a link to 'Baby's On Fire' or 'Another Day On Earth' up, but alas, they don't seem to exist as videos! Anyhow, Brian Eno started off with Roxy Music back in the early 70's (or was it late 60's?), then started a solo career as well as producing other artists' works. He's famous for his ambient works, but still not all that well-known. This song is from his 2006 album, 'Another Day On Earth'.

 

Dragonforce - Through the Fire and the Flames

Okay, I'm kinda cheating with this one, because I only know this one song by Dragonforce XD but it's so good, I just have to share it! Unfortunately, this is the shortened version for TV (the full-length version is about seven-and-a-half minutes long), but have fun rocking out to it anyway!

 

The Cranberries - Dreams

This is from their album 'Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?', which I love. Ah, brings back memories... XD

 

Radiohead - Fake Plastic Trees

I only got into Radiohead a year or two ago, but I really like them now. Thom Yorke has such a lovely voice, IMO. ^_^ This is from their second album, 'The Bends', which is fabulous, but not quite as good as 'OK Computer' (and actually, I was originally gonna put up a link to 'Paranoid Android', but the video has some cartoon bloke chopping all his limbs off with an axe [this doesn't get censored, but the mermaids' bare breasts do, because they're clearly more offensive *LOL*], so I thought better of it).

 

Dido - Life for Rent

I really like her voice. This is one of the standout tracks from her second album, but the first is better.

 

 

 

I'm gonna go and have a listen to what everybody else has posted now :biggrin2:

Yes! There is some fabulous music from America, I'll prove it to you all~!

 

 

System of a Down - Chop Suey!

The song that got me into SOAD. It's from their album 'Toxicity', which I highly recommend!

 

R.E.M. - Daysleeper

One of my favourite songs by the band. ^_^ If you like this, check out Nightswimming and All the Way to Reno!

 

Santana -

Carlos Santana, the band's frontman, was born in Mexico, but the band was formed in San Fransisco. Some lovely Latin rock for ya, from the band that's said to have made the genre famous worldwide!

 

Audioslave - Cochise

My mum likes this because it "sounds kinda like Led Zep!" :biggrin2: *LOL* Audioslave was a rock supergroup that unfortunately broke up earlier this year, consisting of the instrumentalists of Rage Against The Machine and Chris Cornell from Soundgarden. Chris Cornell's vocals are simply fabulous, and if you like this, try out Soundgarden and also Cornell's solo stuff!

 

Tool -

This is a little long, at over 7 minutes, and the video is pretty cuckoo, but give it a try anyhow! This is from their album 'Lateralus', which is fantastic. I like Maynard James Keenan's voice ^_^

 

Tenacious D - Tribute

This song is so freakin' funny XD as is the rest of their debut album, but if you like this and choose to search for more stuff by Tenacious D, then I'll warn you that their humour is not for kiddies or those who are easily offended! This song is pretty safe, though. Enjoy~!

 

Frank Klepacki - Hell March

Frank Klepacki is best known for his work on the soundtracks of the Command & Conquer series, but has his own solo albums out too. This song is from Command & Conquer: Red Alert, which is a great game with an even better soundtrack!

 

Lenny Kravitz -

Lenny Kravitz started out in 1989, and this song was released in 1993, but it still rocks my socks. :biggrin2: He's set to release a new album this November.

 

Nine Inch Nails - We're In This Together

NIN just released a new album this April, but this fantastic song is from their 1999 album 'The Fragile'.

 

 

 

Okay, I think that'll do for now XD

I'm glad someone agrees with me! You listed some good ones. :)

 

Thankyou! :biggrin2:

 

Interestingly enough, the reason I discovered a lot of these bands is because I became so tired of hearing "UH! UH! MAH HOMIES IN DA CLUB!" in practically every song on the radio that I was forced to look elsewhere for something decent... I ended up watching the Kerrang! channel for a bit, and discovered rock! My life was saved! :roftl:

Yeah, I am not big on rap/hip hop, BUT! American music is not just about those two genres. I think that's why we get a bad reputation.

 

But whatever...I tend to look a little deeper, I guess! (Looks as though you do too!)

Yeah, at the time I discovered Kerrang!, the stuff on the radio was rap, boy/girlbands and random trance rubbish. While I like some rap and hiphop, it tends to be the older stuff rather than the modern stuff (though there are a few exceptions), so this combination was driving me potty! After I realised that there was even better stuff than on Kerrang!, I dug deeper and deeper into the world of music to find loads of interesting stuff that I'd never even heard of before. Now I often use Last.fm to help me find cool new stuff, but just going through genres on Wikipedia can produce good results too.

 

I don't think UK radio is quite as bad as it used to be (I mean hey, we've got Mika brightening up the soundwaves now! :biggrin2: ), but I've never heard US radio, so I can't judge. I actually thought you lot got loads of rock on the radio, 'cause I'd often hear people complaining about how songs like 'I Stand Alone' by Godsmack were overplayed (at the time that came out, hearing it on UK radio would've been a cause to celebrate!), but I guess that's not necessarily the case?

The radio stations I listen to have pretty good variety. It all depends what sort of music you want to hear. I mean, if you are looking for mainstream pop, I think those stations generally play the same stuff a lot.

 

I'm sure all radio stations are different tho. :)
