What's your favorite non-metal band/group?

Post by Jordan » Sun February 14th, 2010, 11:25 pm

Just went to see Flogging Molly last night at the Tabernacle and remembered why they were one of my favorite non metal bands. other mentions have to include Aphex Twin, Bad Brains, Primus, and Pink Floyd, among others. what else do you crazy kids like to listen to?

Either Rome or post-Marriage Ulver, probably.

I love fusion jazz. European Mantra (Gergo Borlai is a madman on the skins), Screaming Headless Torsos, shit like that.

I also love Radiohead. I've been hooked to their music since OK Computer came out.

311 is another one. Mainly from Transistor and back. Their new stuff doesn't do anything for me.

Jamiroquai, of all things, is another. LOL.

Punk and gangsta/murda rap. (I have anger management issues.) But the only non-metal cd I keep in my car is Al Green - Call Me.

Current 93
Ween
Television
The Tea Party
The Grassy Knoll
Pigface
Guided by Voices
Morphine (these last three usually require me to be inebriated, I don't know why)

And even though I usually can't sit through an entire album's worth of goth, the original Goth Rock comp on Cleopatra is one of my favorite things.

I like trance music, too, but I've never gotten any further than listening to compilations or whatever's on satellite radio at any given time.

And classical: Schubert, Beethoven, Mozart (duh) and Shostakovich, especially, though every once in a while I have to hear something weird like Alban Berg or Harry Partch.

Now I feel like listening to all of the above. Sometimes music is a curse.
