recommendations lost and found

yeah i know all the bands u listed sev lol

i suggest to you of montreal (especially "satanic panic in the attic" or "hissing fauna, are you the destroyer?"), jens lekman, delorean, maybe merriweather post pavilion-era animal collective, the zombies, cut copy, girls (especially "album"), mikal cronin, spoon ("ga ga ga ga ga" has some great pop songs but "kill the moonlight" is probably their best), and the unicorns

i'm looking for shows like Dexter and Breaking Bad. I heard that "6-feet Under" is supposed to be a good show but i haven't had the chance to check it out yet.

If anyone has seen it, please tell me whether it's good or not or - if you have a different suggestion - i'd be glad to check it out.

I've seen one episode of californication, it's always sunny in philadelphia and walking dead and aside from the last one, i didn't enjoy them too much.

check out boardwalk empire

neato, 6 feet under and broadwalk empire it is, thanks a lot!

hey sev did you check that anime i showed you yet?

thats the manga. the anime's first season is 76 episodes (but you will blast through them in no time). second season is 26 eps but its ehh compared to first season

[sev]

is the anime a straight adaptation of the manga, and is the manga just way heavier? or is the anime an original series with a story loosely based on the manga's plot, or not at all?

[creamcorn]

i heard the anime is exactly the same as the manga apart from a few minor things that didnt make it to the anime because they were controversial (black face jokes).
so you can start reading the mannga from where the anime left off and not miss a thing. look here where that exactly is http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=812

some people will tell you the manga is better but i think they just prefer the medium/are big nerds

wowow thank u i've never heard of these indie bands

[trent bortknob]

Yeah Dude Like They're Pretty Obscure I Don't Know If You'll Like Them

[trent bortknob]

anyways here's some stuff you might not have checked out before that is really good.

cab calloway (he doesn't really have any albums, just compilations of singles, since he was a jazz vocalist from the 1930's-40's)
yes - close to the edge (one of the best progressive rock albums ever made)
mars volta - de-loused in the comatorium (you've probably heard it already but just in case it has passed you by. one of the best albums of the 2000's)
they might be giants - "lincoln" AND/OR "flood" (late 80's/early 90's post-punk inspired experimental pop shit. those two albums are usually called their best. one of my fav bands)
mr. bungle - s/t OR california (this band is really insane no matter what record you start on. s/t is funk metal-ish, california is like anti-pop, whatever that means. they're classic)
ghosts & vodka - precious blood (just a really, really cool instrumental rock album)
brainiac - bonsai superstar (weird experimental punk band. they're pretty cool)
drive like jehu - yank crime (one of the heavier bands i listed. this release is just insane imo)

[creamcorn]

yes - close to the edge (one of the best progressive rock albums ever made)

i love this album. got any more recommendations? something like close to the edge? ill check out the rest in that list too

hmm. there are plenty of other really great albums of a similar style, but you'll have to be open to them being pretty different in execution.

here's a list made of albums with really good musicianship as well as songwriting that, in my opinion, are also very emotional (all of which are quality i associate with close to the edge).

king crimson - in the court of the crimson king
the mars volta - frances the mute
mike oldfield - tubular bells
i'm sure you've heard the albums "dark side of the moon" and "wish you were here" by pink floyd. but just in case, those are good too, albeit less proggy
queen - a night at the opera
jethro tull - thick as a brick

and these are less proggy but i think that you might like them
explosions in the sky - the earth is not a cold dead place
godspeed you! black emperor - lift your skinny fists like antennas to heaven
^ both of those albums are entirely instrumental with no vox, just a warning if that is something that bothers you

there are people who could help you more than i can. i haven't been on a prog binge in quite a while now.

Knew u were going to mention that king crimson album. I second that

hah its funny, i have listened to all those albums you listed first (and i own 4 of them on vinyl). i was hoping you would list something else, but its also good to know im on the right track (pun intended)
i will give those other albums a listen, and if you have any other recommendations id be interested to hear them cuz i think we have the same tastes

[funzop]

prog hour on the back alleys

are you mainly into prog? cuz recently i've been listening to more punk than prog, so i could make a list of good punk records if you want to get into that.
