Re: Dubious musical taste.
Not sure how many here have ever listened or heard of the Swedish band Meshuggah. It depends on whether you are into metal in general, what you think of non-musical screaming, and if you can cope with polyrhythms and polymetrics. And if you want your ass kicked really hard.
For any non-believing heathens like myself, this song has quite interesting lyrics, from the POV of a dictatorial god. The drummer Thomas Hakke consistently writes quite interesting lyrics for their songs.
Follow along with the lyrics from here: http://www.darklyrics.com/lyrics/meshug … oss.html#1
And again, they are definitely an aquired taste. I spent a good 2 years with them before I really understood their music fully and could somewhat predict all the syncopated snare hits, weirdly laid-out guitar sequences, etc. Curiously most of their music is in 4/4, but one or more elements rotate around it in various ways causing alot of unpredictability.
Re: Dubious musical taste.
I've been in to a lot of third wave ska/ska-punk type stuff as of late. It's fun .
Re: Dubious musical taste.
Catch 22 Live is one of my favorite live albums of all time. They cram *so* much fun into that album.
...
So. Uh. Buy it. Asshole?
Anyway, recommended for all third-wave related needs.
I have a tendency to fix your typos.
Re: Dubious musical taste.
I will see your Catch 22 Live and raise you one Live From The Middle East.
Re: Dubious musical taste.
I love Keasbey Nights, so I'll have to check out that live album!

Pomplamoose mashing Call Me Maybe and Somebody That I used To Know. Predictably, it's awesome.

Have you heard Dan Deacon's exponential layering of Call Me Maybe? Predictably, it's terrifying.
Re: Dubious musical taste.
Let's drop some electro.
Some synthpop
And some new Australian music

Dude, I just saw this.
That was amazing, holy crap.
Although at about the 50 second mark or so, it sounds pretty much exactly what my internal monologue is like most of the time. Kinda spooky. (obviously not with Call me Maybe...well...not most of the time...)
Re: Dubious musical taste.
The Bloody Beetroots are making consistently good dance stuff.
Re: Dubious musical taste.
I've never been much into the New York Hardcore scene, but Bouncing Souls have always been kinda pop and fun for me.
Re: Dubious musical taste.
Screaming Females:
I hung out with these guys after one of their shows in New York.
Marissa is a very cool gal.
Her other band, Noun, is also worth checking out.
