The "Oh you like ____, you'd probably like _____" Music Thread

[jibopoply]

In Itunes there is a thing called genius if you haven't already noticed which basically does the same thing as this thread.

 

[assface]

i like blue scholars, common market, sweatshop union, brother ali, and classified.

pandora has me covered. but if you like 1 of those, check out the others.

I like streetlight manifesto.....

 

[assface]

yeah i have before, like swollen members, moka only, etc

 

[Caveman.]

If you like streetlight manifesto I would suggest listening to old Catch 22 (Catch 22 Keasbey Nights album > Streetlight Manifesto Keasbey Nights album IMO), Reel Big Fish, Big D and The Kids Table, Skanking Pickle, etc.... If You want to stay with similar song structure, lyrical style, and general attitude then try Against Me!, Hot Water Music, and Lawrence Arms. TLA is further out there but if you have listened to both bands (Streetlight, and TLA) extensively like I have I have come to find that deep down they share many similar structures, musical attitude, etc...

I'll put two very different bands that I like here, they are The Lawrence Arms and Sigur Ros

 

[Caveman.]

I would also add the band Gimp to this list if you want to get to the roots of Streetlight Manifesto. It is Tom Kalnoky's band that he played in during high school. BOTAR is another band to listen to, acoustic versions of many streetlight songs, catch 22 songs, and originals.

If you like Sigur Ros you'd probably like Explosions in the Sky and maybe Mezzanine by Massive Attack (sick heavy bass rock album...kind of).

I like Boombox.

http://www.pandora.com or the Pandora app on the iPhone/ iPod Touch.

or just use iTunes Genuis its pretty legit.

but yeah sometimes getting some music from people is better, might find some low key stuff

 

[Caveman.]

I listen to Explosions all the time. I'll have to give Massive Attack a listen!

 

[Sklar]

I like the Cunning Lynguists and Masta Ace
