Metal & Rock Music Recommendations

Sug0rt · 01-13-2013, 08:37 AM

Hi. First post on this forum. I'm looking for some music and would like some recommendations. More specifically, I'm looking for bands like Hammerfall, Manowar and Edguy.

Thanks.

I'm looking for bands that have a similar sound to Pavement, (early) Weezer, Pixies, The Unicorns etc. I love how they have all have this gritty alternative sound mixed with melodic beats and stuff like that. On the other side of the spectrum, I also really like Fugazi in the same way. They're somewhat similar to those other bands except they have a more punk/post-hardcore sound. Sonic Youth or Husker Du may also be more on that side of the spectrum with Television and Talking Heads somewhere in the vicinity. Anyway, any suggestions?

I think I need some help getting into David Bowie. I tend to like artsy weirdos so Bowie should be right down my alley. Thing is, his back catalog is fairly huge and, from what I've heard, very diverse. I remember a couple years back listening to Low (which I mostly liked) and Ziggy Stardust and the etc (which I mostly disliked.) Anybody have any recs based on that info?

"Let's Dance" is a pretty honest pop effort which I enjoy:
