Bands that surprised you

[Reign in Acai]

I was really hoping for this to be a site

I'm looking for a webmaster.

Nocturnus when I first listened to them like last year. They were ahead of their time imo.

please ... they were, for one release ... then they fell behind their time.

most overpraised band ever

 

[Dev]

which album/song was it? it wasn't an exception.

I meant in the style, for me. I loved Tempel and now the S/T as well as Los Sounds

 

[Demilich]

perfect those are the 3 i'm most familiar with as well. the only other one i have so far is Periscope, which might be better than Los Sounds and maybe even Tempel.

for me, the s/t is untouchable!

 

[Impudent]

Agalloch
Arghoslent
Drudkh

I usually expect bands that are raved about to not live up to their hype, but these did.

 

[CATL]

Unexpect
But they totally blew me away.

 

[lurch70]

oh, the irony

 

[swizzlenuts]

The Killing Tide > Let Us Prey > Lex Talionis > In The Rain > In A Garden Green > Trees In Winter > Sol Veritas Lux > The Hill Of Crosses > The Devil's Steed

I guess I have a lot of listening to do.

where can i find ANY OF THESE ALBUMS plz

www.strangefortune.com
www.gemm.com
www.amazon.com
www.ebay.com
www.killnegars.com

I also strongly suggest:

http://www.tursa.com/store/ (UK) (for Sol Invictus stuff and related projects specifically)

and also in general:
www.strangefortune.com (USA) (I second this one: best prices for this stuff in North America, although selection is wanting, reliable as long as what you're ordering is in stock)
http://www.equilibriummusic.com/ (Portugal) (very fast, extremely reliable, expensive)
http://www.ominousdrone.com/ (USA) (slower, reliable, expensive, but not as expensive as ordering from Europe)
http://www.theajnaoffensive.com "Other" Arsenal (USA)
http://www.cycliclaw.com/mailorder/cycles10to19.html (Canada)
http://www.coldmeat.se/home.html (Sweden)
http://www.steinklang-records.at/shop/ (Austria)
http://www.malignantrecords.com/search.mpl?type=new (USA, Creditcard or snail mail orders only)

I haven't ordered from this place this last place before, but I've heard good things about it from reliable people. Based in the US
http://www.systemicaudio.com/store/ (USA)

also don't be afraid to check out www.cduniverse.com. For a general online music retailer, they sometimes have some pretty good stuff for decent prices.

edit: also sometimes Projekt records carries such stuff http://www.projekt.com/projekt/lobby_darkwave.asp although they're mostly a faggy goth music label to the best of my knowledge.

 

[Climb Thar Hill]

Manu Chao. My co-worker and a friend are always listening to this guy and he's got some cool songs.

 

[Night Mare]

Mordecai, from The Silent Circus.
