Escape The Fate and "hardcore" do not belong in the same sentance. :P

Just some mainstream stuff. I recently stumbled upon a good jazz/blues station here and they play alot of good stuff but don't offer a tracklist so i rarely know what they are playing. Any reco's would be nice.

YouTube - Finch, What it is to Burn

or if you want more heavy...

YouTube - Norma Jean - Memphis Will Be Laid To Waste

or.

Top 5 essential Drum n' Bass albums please I'm already on High Contrast, great stuff.

AK1200 - Fully Automatic is pretty essential I think

Aphrodite - Aphrodite is amazing if you like more 'jump-up / funky style'

Dieselboy - Dungeon Masters Guide is his best imo. Really dark and heavy type stuff.

Calyx - Shelflife is great

also Marcus Intalex's mix on Fabriclive .35 has been one of my favorites for a really long time. Very chill, and just packed with good songs all the way through.

A very easy mistake to make. Death metal isn't the easiest genre of music to get into if you're not sure you're really into at first. The wrong bands can be a real turn off and sadly you'll miss some of the better more talented ones out there. Anyhow I'll post a few videos and if any of them strike a chord with you send me a PM and I'll send you the album.

I hope that puts you on the right path.

I need someone with a lot of knowledge about Mexican music to introduce me to some stuff. I'm not a fan of the accordion-based Mexican music that sort of sounds like polka, but I am interested in two kinds of Mexican music: Stuff with more complex percussion along the lines of a lot of South American music (I think this stuff is called cumbia) and also the kind of Mexican folk music with the fiddle and the vocals that almost sound like yodeling. I'm not even sure of the names of these genres so it's been hard for me to find anything on my own. If anyone can help I'd be really grateful.

Children of Bodom would be another death metal band that is pretty incredible if you havn't heard em.
Their Hatebreeder cd is especially badass.
