I'm looking for new Music...?

Question

Well, I have a pretty eclectic style... But here are some of my favorite songs that represent the kind of stuff I'm looking for:

Nothing In My Way -- Keane
Somewhere Only We Know -- Keane
My Immortal -- Evanescence
The Scientist -- Coldplay
Hide and Seek -- Imogen Heap
Staralfur -- Sigur Ros (not sure if any of you have heard of them...)
Writing to reach You -- Travis

I like anything that satisfies me melodically that seems like it would fit in with any songs...and I tired of depending on iTunes for my music.

Any reccommendations?

Answer 1

If you like Evanescence then I suggest a band that is from Europe called Within Temptation. The lead singer is a female, sounds like Amy Lee but extremely more talented in vocal ranges.. yes she does sing in english so you will not a problem understanding the lyrics. If you saw the previews for a movie called Blood and Chocolate, the song they used is called Stand My Ground which is off Within Temptation's Silent Force album. You can go to myspace and check out their page or go to their web page. You won't be able to find any of their ablums in the states until July 23 of this year. Check them out and enjoy!

Is that what you would wager?

Considering what you put for your favorites...id say check out anything by Bright Eyes or Modest Mouse. Travis has a great tune called "Sing" that you might also like if youre not already familiar with it.

And Sigur Ros kick asz

Answer 4

Doves "Lost Souls" album
Postal Service "Give Up" album
Anything from Zero Seven or Thievery Corporation
Maybe The Shins or AIR
And if you can find it, there is an album by a guys named Charles Webster called "Born on the 24th of July" that is amazing.
If you're sick of Itunes, you might try Pandora. It's a web radio station that allows you to put in artists you like, and it then plays similar artists...
