I've loved the Stooges and the Contortions for a while now, and have recently been getting into The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. I just love the simple, rock'n'roll energy of those bands, but also the chaotic noise that borders on formlessness at times (the Stooges especially for the B-side of Funhouse). It just feels so free and adventurous. Any other bands that really have that kind of thing going on?

And I've never really been the biggest fan of noise rock, so yeah.

Them Crooked Vultures

That's pretty righteous. I just looked them up, and it's awesome that John Paul Jones is in the band.

The whole album kicks serious ass. And the production is real loose and greasy which fits the vibe perfectly.

Everybody with a musical pulse knows that.

I barely listen to music made since the turn of the century, so I was only aware of them by name.

Looking for some new bands
 

Hey I've been stumped for a while now and don't really know where to look for new bands, so I thought I'd give this a shot.
Some of my favourite bands:
Mastodon
Baroness
Red Fang
Ghost
QOTSA
Big Buisiness
The Melvins
Devin Townsend
Gojira
ASG
Kvelertak
Dillenger EP
The Ocean

That's a few. If anyone is willing to give me a a few suggestions, that would be primo. Plz & thx

Acid Bath


Bozzio Levin Stevens- Black Light Syndrome

Secret Chiefs 3

That's not true, you listen to and comment on all kinds of current metal on this forum.

Recommendation! Saint Agnes
 

I stumbled across this band Saint Agnes today. They've got a boy and a girl singer, kind of like The Kills but more rocky I'd say and with big riffs. I like 'em! Hope to hear more stuff! :love:

I can't post a link because I havent written 15 posts yet :confused: but whatever, check them out.
