| 16 Horsepower is great. Secret South is one of my favorite albums ever. I have a demo tape from The Denver Gentlemen (pre-16 Horsepower) from 1991 that's never been been listed anywhere online. I can post it if anyone's interested. Some of the songs were re-recorded for Sackcloth 'n' Ashes. |

| I'd love to hear that. Im a much bigger fan of the earlier stuff than the sort of, wovenhand transitional stuff like secret south, but I can see why people like it. |

Cheers, always interesting to hear a band's roots. This isn't Edwards doing vocals, is it? Neck on the New Blade sounds great |

| Both Edwards and Norlander do vocals. Edwards does the majority on that song, and he definitely sounds younger. Also, Jean-Yves Tola and Slim Cessna would have been in the band at this point. |

Been listening to these guys a bit lately. Depressing post-punk/gothic rock.

It was the predecessor to a band that is still around, called Wovenhand. Im pushing way too many hours awake to give it a good description, so i stole a line from wikipedia.
"incendiary gospel, hallowed folk and mordant tones infused with a high, dark theatricality worthy of Nick Cave."

is another good one |
Cheers guy; really enjoying these. Probably pick some up.

I had a hard time tracking down a physical release of theirs, but I wouldn't put it past an NWN user to find an obscure copy of something.  |

WHITE NOISE - "The Black Mass: An Electric Storm In Hell"
Released in 1969, scary noise electronics before anything like that existed. There are aspects of brilliance on the record as a whole, but most of it sounds very different from this track and is 60s/70s psych stuff. This song is particularly awesome though.

I love a whole lot of absolute "garbage" and I can't really muster any shame about it. Good songwriting is good songwriting and I can't recall any moment in my life where I paid any heed to scene politics.
I'm well aware how scene politics work though. I won't post about "acceptable" stuff like dark ambient, folk, punk, etc, etc, etc. I'd rather go straight to "controversial" choices.
Big soft spot for stuff that sounds like melodious eurotrash happy hardcore and trance anthem stuff, old and new. Melodious pop in general, really. Love Kylie's Light Years and Fever. Somehow I'm still a sexually active straight male.
There's some fantastic stuff in the gummygoth dancefloor EBM scene, provided you have the patience to wade through a *huge* amount of crap. I always find myself gravitating to the harsher side as opposed to the usual hardstyle tinged sounds though:

Not to knock the hardstyle strain entirely though. I'm horrible enough to genuinely enjoy this:

I think brostep is the best thing that happened to popular music in a very long time and I still very much enjoy that stuff in 2013. I think it's really hilarious how quickly backlash kicked in against this trend. I get a really strong impression that the people who rail against brostep the most fellated it really hard in '10, right before it poured over into the mainstream and got it's "bro" prefix:

I enjoy some hairspray metalcore, most notably Bring Me The Horizon. Their last release was a big stinker though. Apart from this song:

I can only speak for myself, but I thought it was one of the biggest wasted opportunities in years. I was (and still am) hugely into SCORN, old smoked-out trip-hop stuff etc etc, so when stuff like Burial and Cryptic Minds came along I thought it was killer - urban paranoia music with heavy bass. then somehow it turned into something utterly terrible and really far removed from what I wanted it to be. It became "party music" instead of "smoke a big spliff and go for a walk at night" music haha. |

I meant brostep, not stuff like Burial, Mt Eden, Zomby and the like. There's a pretty clear distinction and I don't really buy into this belief that brostep "killed" dubstep as if all dubstep artists were drafted and forced into producing brostep. It's like saying deathcore killed death metal. I don't see Incantation breeing, jumping da fukk up and breaking shit down just because Suicide Silence exists. |
