Artists you've discovered thanks to MB members
 
I've done a search and found nothing so if this thread already exists then burn me at the stake for I have sinned.

Pixies - Been hammering Doolittle recently. Really enjoying this, decided to check them out thanks to Black Francis's fanboyism and I'm glad I did.

Tis yeah although I've nothing to give.

Guess this will have to be locked.

EDIT - Since you mentioned Batty he got me into some nice Nazi metal so cheers pal.

A lot.

Since MB is right above me, he got me into Sigh. Excellent stuff.

Mondo Bungle 02-25-2015 12:44 PM

I did?

Carpe Mortem 02-25-2015 12:45 PM

I think so, one of my first plug sessions

I find a lot of stuff just by scanning through journals or posts. I went through my Last.fm and recalled some artists I remember finally checking out due to MB. Only maybe 2 or 3 of them were directly recommended to me. Putting down names and other info if I can remember the source.

Andrew Jackson Jihad (machine) - I knew them already, but had never listened - now a favorite in my library
Animal Collective (???) - I knew them already, but had never listened - turning into one of my favorites as of late
Arcade Fire (machine) - I knew and listened to them a bit already, but checked them out more in depth - need to keep checking them out, but love it
Beck (mordwyr) - I knew and listened to them a bit already, but checked them out more in depth - need to keep checking them out, but love it
Buddy Holly (???) - First time hearing about them - need to keep checking them out
Burzum (???) - I knew them already, but had never listened - got me exploring the black metal genre, and I'm lovin' it
Converge (???) - I knew them already, but had never listened - reminds me of TDEP, love it
Fleet Foxes (pet_sounds) - I knew them already, but had never listened - need to keep checking them out
Grandaddy (janszoon) - I knew and listened to them already, but hadn't listened to them in years - now a favorite in my library
Leonard Cohen (???) - I knew them already, but had never listened - now a favorite in my library
Madvillain (machine) - I knew them already, but had never listened - wasn't too pulled in first listen, need to keep checking them out
Molly Drake (??? plug.dj) - First time hearing about them - real nice, love at first listen
My Bloody Valentine (???) - I knew them already, but had never listened - need to keep checking them out, but it has gotten me more into shoegaze
Neurosis (???) - First time hearing about them - need to keep checking them out
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds (???) - I knew them already, but had never listened - need to keep checking them out
O'Death (goofle) - First time hearing about them - need to keep checking them out
Paysage d'Hiver (mondo bungle) - First time hearing about them - vocals turned me off at first, but i'm diggin' it now
Primus (frownland) - First time hearing about them - now a favorite in my library
Slint (exo_) - I knew them already, but had never listened - now a favorite in my library and of all time
Slowdive (goofle) - I knew them already, but had never listened - now a favorite in my library
The Angels of Light (josef k) - I knew them already, but had never listened - loving it
The Doors (???) - I knew them already, but had never listened - need to keep checking them out
The United States of America (???) - First time hearing about them - need to keep checking them out
Ty Segall (??? plug.dj) - First time hearing about them - need to keep checking them out

I'm missing a lot, I'm sure. I seem to know a whole lot more artists than I actually listen to. That tells me I have a lot of catching up to do. Gah. Not a single artist I've listened to from here that I disliked.

I'll be checking out Captain Beefheart, Mac DeMarco, Elizabeth Cotten and some more Bjork tonight thanks to Frownland, Machine, Goofle and grtwhtgrvty.

I don't know how I remember half this ****.

Animal Collective (directly) and basically every recent band (indirectly) courtesy of Surrel.

Frownland 02-25-2015 01:49 PM

^I'm always repping USA but I've seen Josef K and Mondo do it as well. Kinda surprised you hadn't heard of Primus before tbh.
