Ryan’s been a little sick lately, but nobody wants to hear about that. I just needed a starting point, that’s all. So during the last couple days, I’ve been listening to a bunch of new music, mostly stuff that doesn’t even resemble the current rotation. First off is probably the first techno band I’ve ever liked, Rabbit in the Moon. As far as I can tell, they mostly do remixes and stuff, but it’s good stuff. Not too technoey either. I’m not sure where it would really fit, but whatever. I’ve also picked up on a couple punk bands; The (International) Noise Conspiracy and Refused. One of my friends actually suggested both of these bands to me a few years ago, but I never caught on. I never catch on until the fad is over. But they’re both awesome bands anyway. Lastly is a goth metal-ish band, Lacuna Coil. I generally try to stay away from goth metal, fantasy metal, and anything else that falls close to that tree, but I do make exceptions every now and then. I actually even have a torrent (right-click, save as…) for this one. I particularly like “Heaven’s a Lie”.
That’s about it for today. Chances are good that if you chack out the old Last.fm page, you’ll see these guys popping up all over the place among the regulars. I recommend them all, even though they’re all in their own acquired taste subdivision. So yeah, at least chack out Lacuna Coil’s website. It’s really neat.
