About The Band: Rammstein (pronounced [ˈʀamʃtaɪ̯n]) is a German industrial metal band, founded in Berlin, and consisting of Till Lindemann (lead vocals), Richard Z. Kruspe (lead guitar and backing vocals), Paul H. Landers (rhythm guitar, backing vocals), Oliver "Ollie" Riedel (bass guitar), Christoph "Doom" Schneider (drums and Electronic percussion) and Christian "Flake" Lorenz (keyboards). The band is widely accepted as part of the NDH-scene, alongside bands such as Oomph! and Die Krupps. Their sound has been dubbed as Tanz-Metal (lit. "Dance Metal").[1][2][3] Their songs are performed almost exclusively in German. Formed in 1994, they have sold over 22 million records worldwide.[4] Rammstein's entire catalogue is published by Universal Music Group.

Although the majority of their songs are written in German, Rammstein has had success across the world. It has been confirmed that in 2007, the band has reunited from their vacation and has begun working on their sixth studio album, which will be released sometime in 2009.

[Emotive]

Tool and Opeth have already been introduced - from the previous stuff, also got to say I love Blonde Redhead, and Meshuggah, sort of ("sort of" meaning I wouldn't put Meshuggah in my favorite bands but still love them, saw them live this year too). But let's introduce some new stuff from my twisted music tastes:

The Dresden Dolls



Genre: Punk Cabaret
Years active: 2001 - Present
Origin: Boston, Massachusetts

Members:

-Amanda Palmer (vocals, piano, harmonica, ukulele)
-Brian Viglione (drums, percussion, guitar, vocals)

Albums:

2003 - A is for Accident (live compilation album)
2003 - The Dresden Dolls (Favorite)
2006 - Yes, Virginia...
2008 - No, Virginia... (unpublished tracks from Yes, Virginia...)

An amazing and unique American musical duo from Boston. They describe their heavily art-damaged and theatrical style as “Brechtian punk cabaret”, and you may also find them mentioned as "dark cabaret". The music mostly consists of piano and drums and, from my point of view, the self-titled album is one of the best albums that ever came to existence.

No seriously, it's fucking orgasmic.

Go listen to them.

Okay I'm done. Moving on:

Angelspit



Genre: Industrial, Cyberpunk
Years active: 2004 - Present
Origin: Sydney, Australia (it ain't Germany, it's the kangaroo country)

Members:

DestroyX
Zoog

Albums:

2004 - Nurse Grenade (EP)
2006 - Krankhaus (Favorite)
2007 - Surgically Atoned (Krankhaus remixes)
2008 - Blood Death Ivory

With their merciless dual vocal assault, intense electronic mayhem and murderous guitars, Destroyx and Zoog have thrilled and revolted countless audiences globally. Angelspit’s subversive visuals are equally confronting- as their unique brand of vicious fashion and hellish aesthetics influence a new wave of cyber punk music, fashion and art blablabla. Well the whole point is, they're awesome. Go listen to them, kay.

Puscifer



Genre: Experimental Industrial
Years active: 2003 - Present
Origin: Maynard's Twisted Head

Members:

Maynard James Keenan
Maynard James Keenan's Id
Maynard James Keenan's Ego
Maynard James Keenan's Anima
The Cookie Recipes

Albums:

2007 - Cuntry Boner (EP)
2007 - Don't Shoot the Messenger (EP) (Favorite)
2007 - V is for Vagina
2008 - V is for Viagra (The Vagina Remixes)

Puscifer is one of Maynard James Keenan’s(Tool/A Perfect Circle) many side projects. Maynard James Keenan has described it as “Simply a playground for the various voices in my head, it’s a space with no clear or discernible goals. It’s where my Id, Ego, and Anima all come together to exchange cookie recipes.” Nuff said.

Creature Feature



Genre: A genre of their own
Years Active: 2006 - Today
Origin: California

Members:

Curtis RX (vicious vampiric vocalist)
Erik X (ghoulishly fiendish organ master)

Albums:

2006 - Retrodemon 263
2007 - The Greatest Show Unearthed (Favorite)

Creating a haunting mix of vintage horror visuals, old school beats, a carnival feel and a strangely rebellious approach to the modern ideals, the two monstrous musicians weave tales of the macabre, creating anthems for the horror minded and horror born alike. Their unique, awesome, addicting sound and the carnivalish and fun (in a dark way) feel made them one of my favorite bands in a pretty short amount of time...

[Reevothemusefan]

3. Interpol

So I have antics, and it is the most dreary album i've heard. like it's not all sad, but it makes me want to go to sleep. are the other albums any better?

Turn on the bright lights is more depressing than Antics however in my opinion it has some of the best songs like 'PDA' and 'Obstacle 1'.

The recent album Our Love To Admire does show a more upbeat interpol with songs like 'The Heinrich Maneuver' and 'What Do You Think?' although they have some dreary songs like 'Lighthouse', so if you want a less sad album I recommend this.

All I can say about Interpol is thats this is not a fun band, this is a band that makes dark music but the amount of brilliance they put together in there songs make them one of my top bands.

Maximum the Hormone



Genre: Metalcore, Punk, Pop

Members: Maximum the Ryo (マキシマムザ亮君, Makishimamu za Ryō-kun) – guitars, vocals
Daisuke-han (ダイスケはん, Daisuke-han) – vocals
Nao (ナヲ, Nao) – drums, vocals
Ue-chan (上ちゃん, Ue-chan) – bass guitar, backing vocals

When I was first introduced to this band, I was immediately blown away. It was pure amazement and I delved more into their works, fallen in love with them upon each listen. Their mixture of metal, hardcore, punk, and pop sounds is simply unique. I like pop and rock music and finding a single band that mixes these two genres together so beautiful is gold to my ears. A band that's so full of energy, I can barely sit still while listening to them, I need to see them live.

exist†trace



Genre: Metal, Rock

Members:Vocals: Jyou (ジョウ)
Guitar: Miko (ミコ)
Guitar: Omi (乙魅)
Bass: Naoto (猶人）
Drums: Mally (マリ)

I was on the look out for female vocalists in the japanese visual kei culture and came across this all-female band. When I blurted out to a friend of mine, "I would make love to the actual song" whilst listen to 'Under mind', I knew I was hooked. Smooth vocals mixed with guttural screams is amazement.

Utada Hikaru



Genre: Pop

A woman with a beautiful voice. I've listened to quite a bit of pop artists over the years and very few has stunned me to the degree that she has. Her live performances are one of the very best.

TWO-MIX



Genre: Electronic Pop

The duo that got me into music period. Without them, I would have just thought music to be boring for a longer time and wouldn't have bothered with it. Upon first hearing the likes of 'Just Communication' and 'Rhythm Emotion', I was taken aback and my views on music were changed.

Nobuo Uematsu



Genre: God

Nobuo Uematsu, 'nuff said

[Emong]

Yay for shoegaze!

My Bloody Valentine



Genres: shoegaze, dream pop, noise pop, post-punk

Members:
Kevin Shields
Bilinda Butcher
Debbie Googe
Colm Ó Cíosóig

Years active: 1984–1997, 2007 - present

Besides from being the band that gave the world a whole genre of music known as 'shoegaze' and their classic album 'Loveless', they're also exposing their fans to noise as loud as fucking possible on their live gigs (*points at the 15~30 noise trance holocaust in You Made Me Realise*) and catchy pop melodies carried through Bilinda's and Kevin's breathy vocals and melancholy lyrics. The genre "shoegaze", characterized by loud guitar noise, buried melodies and dreamy vocals, was later developed further by other bands and the genre soon expanded.

Anyhow, I'm completely blown away by their music, most notably on "Loveless" that practically re-invented guitar, noise and pop music "Only Shallow", "To Here Knows When" and "When You Sleep" should be able to carry anyone with their noise bliss. If you're a fan of alternative rock music, pop, or whatever, just music in general, this band should not be missed! The band reunited in 2007 and is now recording a new album and touring.

Slowdive



Genres: shoegaze, dream pop, noise pop, space rock

Members:
Neil Halstead
Rachel Goswell
Nick Chaplin
Christian Savill
Adrian Sell (drums, 1989)
Simon Scott (drums, 1990 until early 1994)
Ian McCutcheon (drums, 1994 onwards)

Years active: 1989 - 1995

Slowdive is propably the second most popular band of the early 90's shoegaze spree. Heavily influenced by classical and ambient music, Slowdive drop the faster-paced pop hooks and the hardcore noise of MBV and focus on dreamy soundscapes and lingering melodies. Their music is atmospheric and spacy and covers a heartbreak or two with their sad themes. My favourite album by them, and just one of my favourite albums in general, is deffinitely 'Souvlaki' (yes, named after a kebab!) that makes me feel like I'm floating in space in a melancholy tube.

Lovesliescrushing



Genres: shoegaze, dream pop, noise, noise pop, ambient, lo-fi

Members:
Scott Cortez
Melissa Arpin

Years active: 1991 - present

This is the project Scott "the new Kevin Shields of MBV" Cortez is propably the most known for. Together with the vocalist Melissa Arpin, they create propably the most blissed-out music on earth They use shoegaze and dream pop as the ground for their music but left conventional song structures and focus on blissful ambient carried with Scott's super-experimental guitar work and Melissa's breathy, often wordless vocals. They use some electronic altering and sampling nowdays but on their earlies albums "Bloweyelashwish" and "Xuvetyn" (favourite!) the only main instruments used are guitar and vocals. The guitar is often so tuned and effected inside out that music critics thought the sound was produced by a keyboard. Cortez used many instruments such as vibrators and forks to alter (and abuse) his guitar. And what makes it even cooler is that the music is all recorded with a 4-track tape recorder in a bedroom studio

For fans of bliss-out angelic yet noisy ambient eno-influenced music.. 'Nuff said..

Astrobrite



Genres: shoegaze, noise pop, noise, power pop, dream pop, ambient, lo-fi

Members:
Scott Cortez
+ collaborating artists

Years active: 1994 - 1997, 2007 - present

Astrobrite is propably one of the noisiest bands you'll ever hear and if Lovesliescrushing isn't enough to make Scott Cortez a guitar genius, this project serves that purpose more than enough. Recorded in his bedroom studio, Astrobrite takes noise levels to the maximum and shoegazy fuzzpop onto whole new levels. The result is a ridiculously awesome experience Just take any Astrobrite album and listen to it through just to get into noise trance with catchy and uplifting riffs. This band also provides the cheesiest, most uplifting and improvised lyrics ever, if you can depicher them from all the soothing chaos that is

STAR



Genres: shoegaze, dream pop, noise pop, power pop, lo-fi

Members:
Scott Cortez
Shannon Roberts
Theodore Beck

Years active: 2005 - present

STAR is the third notable project from Scott Cortez (surprise ) STAR is the most "pop" of the three with it's short and often linear songs and catchy hooks. The vocals here are actually depicherable and the lyrics are bitchy, all provided by Shannon Roberts, who makes the band female-fronted. However, the guitar noise is there but it's more rhythmic and less extreme or distorted. A recommended listen

Medicine



Genres: shoegaze, dream pop, noise pop, power pop, lo-fi

Members:
Brad Laner
Beth Thompson
Shannon Lee
Jim Goodall

Years active: 1991-1995, 2003 - present

Oh hell I've been introducing bands no one really really cares shit about and wasting my time but this is the last band.. at least for now >_>

Medicine was the American response for the mainly british shoegaze movement. The music has a lot in common; the songs are often full of distorted guitar noise and soft vocals. However, Medicine always seemed to me as more generic noise rock/pop than shoegaze. The albums "Shot Forth Self Living", "The Buried Life" and "Her Highness" push the limits of how distorted and noisy a guitar can get but also provide hell of a lot of catchy pop tunes! "One More" is possibly the most epic pop song ever! \o/

The band reformed itself in 2003 with a new album "The Mechanical Forces of Love". A lot of the band members had changed (including the vocalist Beth Thompson) and the sound is supposed to be more electronic and lush than the earlier work. I personally don't know since I haven't listened to anything from the newer era Medicine.


Now I can't believe I spent all this time typing this out >_>

[Emotive]

Yay for shoegaze!

You missed Cocteau Twins and Lush >_>

Anyhow, adding some more to mine, because I can:

Emilie Autumn



Genres: victoriandustrial, gothic, poetry e.t.c.
Years Active: 2000-present
Origin: Malibu, California, United States

Albums:

2000 - On A Day...
2002 - Enchant (rereleased 2007)
2005 - Your Sugar Sits Untouched (CD and poetry book)
2006 - Opheliac (Favorite)
2007 - Laced/Unlaced (instrumental)
2007 - A Bit O' This & That

Emilie Autumn is a singer-songwriter, poet, and violinist. She has gone through a wide variation of musical styles in the past, as she went from the more classical, celtic sound of Enchant to the "angrier", violin-industrial sound of Opheliac, which pretty much happens to be my favorite. An amazing artist, do check her out.

A Perfect Circle



Genre: alternative/progressive rock
Years Active: 1999-present

Current Members:

Billy Howerdel (lead guitar, vocals, bass)
Maynard James Keenan (lead vocals)
Josh Freese (drums)
James Iha (backup guitar)
Jeordie White (bass)

Albums:

2000 - Mer De Noms
2003 - Thirteenth Step (Favorite)
2004 - eMOTIVe
2004 - aMotion

A Perfect Circle is a rock band that was formed by former Tool/Nine Inch Nails guitar tech Billy Howerdel after recruiting Tool vocalist Maynard James Keenan in the late ’90s. A pretty different band from Tool despite what many say or think because of Maynard being in the band, yet still pretty darn awesome (and something I'd suggest to Tool fans either way). Their best songs are actually spread throughout the albums, but as a whole I'd suggest Thirteenth Step.

Android Lust



Genres: industrial, darkwave e.t.c.
Years Active: 1996-present
Origin: Bangladesh

Albums:

1998 - Resolution
1999 - Evolution
2002 - The Dividing (Favorite)
2004 - Stripped and Stitched
2006 - Devour, Rise and Take Flight

A female in the Industrial music scene who writes all her own music, and stays with it throughout the entire process, effortlessly blending together many different genres of music is a rare sight indeed. Shikhee is one of these few women, and she does her job magnificently. Last.fm word stealing ftw..

But on to more metal:

Between The Buried And me



Genre: progressive metalcore
Years Active: 2000-present
Origin: North Carolina

Current Members:

Tommy Rogers (vocals/keyboards)
Paul Waggoner (guitar)
Dustie Waring (guitar)
Blake Richardson (drums/percussion)
Dan Briggs (bass guitar)

Albums:

2002 - Between the Buried and Me
2003 - The Silent Circus
2005 - Alaska
2006 - The Anatomy Of
2007 - Colors (Favorite)

Between The Buried And Me is a progressive metalcore quintet from North Carolina, infusing a wide array of genres like soft rock but remaining metalcore for the most part. I'm a bit neutral on the first two albums, I do love Alaska but with Colors they just made one of the best fucking albums I have heard (at least from my point of view). It is also worth noting that though many of you won't even have heard of them, they have one of the best drummers alive.

Opera IX



Genres: black/gothic metal
Years Active: 1988-present
Origin: Italy

Current Members:

M The Bard (vocals)
Ossian (guitars)
Vlad (bass)
Lunaris (keyboards)
Dalamar (drums)

The awesome member that shouldn't have left: Cadaveria (vocals)

Albums:

1995 - The Call of the Wood
1998 - Sacro Culto
2000 - The Black Opera - Simphoniae Misteriorum in Laude Tenebrarum (Favorite)
2002 - Maleventum
2004 - Anphisbena

Opera IX is an Italian Black Metal band with Doom, Death and Gothic influences. The band reached the awesomeness-peek with The Black Opera cd, which was simply amazing, and lost its worth for me after Cadaveria left for "not being religious enough" (eh?).

It is also worth noting that Opera IX not only is a musical concept but a marriage of Art and Religion where a strong and straight lifestyle prevails on the daily life of modern man.

Opera IX walks along the occult roads of the old Pagan knowledge throughout meditation and rites. They explore the dark meanders surrounding men, travelling through old legends, forgotten traditions and superstition. The real essence of Opera IX is hidden in their lyrics and the music they compose.

So yeah, do at least give a listen to The Black Opera for it's just an amazing cd..

And oh, what did I save for last.

Dark Tranquility



Genre: melodic death metal
Years Active: 1989-present
Origin: Gothenburg, Sweden

Current Members:

Mikael Stanne (vocals)
Niklas Sundin (guitar)
Martin Henriksson (guitar)
Martin Brändström (keyboards and electronics)
Anders Jivarp (drums)

Albums:

1993 - Skydancer
1995 - The Gallery
1997 - The Mind's I
1999 - Projector
2000 - Haven
2002 - Damage Done
2004 - Exposures In Retrospect and Denial (Compilation CD) (Favorite)
2005 - Character
2007 - Fiction

Dark Tranquillity is a melodic death metal band from Gothenburg, Sweden. They are one of the longest-standing bands from the Gothenburg metal scene and one of the pioneers of the melodic death metal genre. A simply astonishing band and probably the best in its genre's history, I don't have much to say on them because the music should pretty much be able to speak for itself..

Ok I give up for now, I spent too much time on this..

[Emotive]

Fresh addition!

Stolen Babies



Genre: avant-garde metal with dark cabaret influences
Years active: 2002-present
Origin: United States

Current Members:

Dominique Lenore Persi (vocals, accordion)
Rani Sharone (bass guitar)
Ben Rico (keyboards)
Gil Sharone (drums)

Albums:

2006 - There Be Squabbles Ahead

"Once upon an awkward adolescence, there was a girl that tripped often and spoke very little, a boy who ate too much junk food, but spoke a lot, and his identical twin that hit things and spoke even more. Then along came a pianist with very wiggly fingers and a baseball bat. Hence…the musical misadventures unfolded." As soon as I read that, I knew this would be interesting. And it was. This album will never get old for me - this is one of the craziest albums I have listened to and their awesome sound and songs structure REALLY got me addicted quick. Definitely worth your time if you're into.. crazy stuff. =)
