I've always liked U2, Coldplay and Genesis, but I also love Barenaked Ladies, The East Pointers, Great Big Sea. More recently, Bear's Den, Sons of the East, Amble, Kingfishr, and The Scratch. Just seen Amble last night and they're incredible live.

Also enjoying KNEECAP, and Chasing Abbey.

Holy shit how was it‽ Is his voice that similar to Ozzy live?

[–] sturmblast@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago

I mean, it's great, but it's basically Black Label Sabbath, if you've heard 'The Wizard' cover on the Pride & Glory album it should give you a good estimate.

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard because they are carrying all of the genres

[–] hateisreality@lemmy.world 1 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

All them Witches and King Buffalo are no slouch either.

(King Gizzard has no right to be as amazing as they are at every single music genre.pick one.. It's insane how good they are.)

There is another band similar to kglw that is called doom gong that is local to the midwest of the united states which does some pretty cool stuff too

Cocteau Twins is the morning music at my house.

[–] Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

It's so hard to choose one but I'd say Blind Guardian. If you love fantasy novels then you'll enjoy their songs. They cover LOTR, WoT, SA, The Witcher, and so many more. They've had consistently good albums and are always refining their sound, they've even released a full progressive symphonic album based on the pulp novels of Solomon Kane.

Brian fucking Eno

[–] Cratermaker@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Rush. Love the 70s and 80s eras especially, but it's like having several favorite bands to choose from! If I'm in the mood for synths I'll put on Signals, or if I want something heavier I'll play the self-titled album. I literally never get sick of their songs though.

I only got into Rush as an adult, but I spent probably 1-2 years listening to almost nothing but Rush. Hemispheres definitely came out my favorite in the end, but I really enjoy most of it ( Though I could take-or-leave some of their later stuff, especially Presto which is just produced weird and tinny.)

When I'm in a mood, Stars of the Lid

Alestorm! It has everything, drunk pirates, silly pirates, horny pirates, bloodlusting pirates and pizza, for reasons I guess.

Chris bowes is a racist sex-offender though...
