Rachel's, beautiful chamber music.

If you like instrumental strings and piano.

The Horrors are a shoegaze/dream pop/psychedelic group. They have a mindblowing sound. I can't pick any one song so here's track one from their latest album.

That guy was so fucked up. Half of Anal Cunt's songs are about smoking crack and shooting heroin, and Seth definitely walked the walk. The picture of him getting blown by the groupie while shooting up is awesome though.

i've heard of Anal Cunt but never heard the music. he reminds me of GG Allin after doing some research.

There this dude called The Weeknd from Canada that is cold as hell. He's on some alternative R&B/rock/whatever else type shit....be he jams tho. I usually listen to rap music 80% of the time, but he goes hard.

One of my local stations plays the Horrors. I like them. I love anything with the shoegaze sound as I was heavily into that stuff in the 90s.

Here's another group I've been digging, Tame Impala from Australia. Not SG so much, more neo-psychadelic.

Also really diggin' this Swedish band called Dungen, also kind of psychadelic and prog rock:

How can people not know/love post rock?

Just found this band, sheer beauty:

[Deluge]

I LOVE TAME IMPALA (I'm Aussie btw). My ex introduced me to them.

A better Horrors song.

Also Animal Collective are a great experimental group. They are the kings off the hipster scene. Any serious hipster girl knows Animal Collective. Be sure to name drop them when gaming one:

[YoungGunner]

One of the trippiest videos I've seen:

[Amour Fou]

Hell yeah, great melodic drum n bass!

[RougeNoir]

I don't listen to bands per se. Basement Jaxx, if they are considered a band, has a decent song called "If I Ever Recover." Curren$y & the Jets are a rap group who are not mainstream at all and I like it that way. Wiz Khalifa enjoyed a nice underground existence until he went mainstream and subsequently his music took a nosedive.

Grreat thread, I fucking love Rachel's & Slowdive & Cocteau Twins and some of the other stuff posted on this thread.

One of the great forgotten bands of the 1980's. Everyone I introduce Felt to ends up loving them. Some of the guitar work on their records is fucking heroic:

Just heard it. Me gusta! Really cool singer.

I just found this one here, nice somber electronica by a girl as well:

[Screwston]

What about The Prodigy? I know they blew up with that Fat of the Land cd, but they're somewhat underground. I hate techno, but they have some real good music.

I think Prodigy is great, but I do consider them "mainstream". A great, not that well known track of theirs:

And a cool singer I just found on Youtube:

Zola Jesus

[speakeasy]

I've been really feeling this mellow track off Ana Tijoux's new album. She's a Chilean hiphop artist.

[3am]

Dengue Fever -

Amadou and Mariam - Mike Snow Remix

[Screwston]

yeah, Amour Four! I like that song! I wish I was old enough to be involved in the rave/electronic scene when it was huge and ecstasy was blowing up like dynamite.

[Amour Fou]

Cool alt-pop singer I don't know anything about:

Sóley

[Screwston]

King Diamond.....crazy ass voice

[sheesh]

Not alternative in the true sense of the word, but here it goes anyway
