AudioPulls #1

Yeah, so as I’m sure you’ve all (5 of you) noticed, I mostly post in the music section.  And so does WaveS, for obvious reasons.  But I get excited over music so too bad for all of you other-content-wishers (translation:  I’ll do other topics soon).

The topic of this post:  Music Recommendations!  I’m trying to chain this one, since we haven’t had much in the way of real threads yet.  So the objective, which is done in turns:  Recommend a band of your choice you think others should hear.  Title, some basic info, genre, ideally a link to some audio.  And try n think outta the mainstream, it gets more fun that way.

Replies can be comments or whole new posts, if you’re enthusiastic enough.  So lemme kick this off:

Artist: Motorpsycho
Genre: Experimental Alt Rock
Example Songs: Vortex Surfer , The Slow Phaseout , Hey Jane ( a better quality audio-only stream is on their last.fm page, full track) , Serpentine
Other Recommendations (Songs): Psychonaut , Ozone
Info:  Motorpsycho is a band from Norway (they sing in English, dun worry).  They’ve been around for quite a while, and while I list em as Alt Rock in reality they’re a bit closer to Psychedelic rock in most cases.  They should probably be considered from both angles, as a lot of their stuff sounds Altrockish but when you move into their experimental stuff like Ozone or Psychonaut you really hear the psychedelic influence.  Psychonaut even has a hint of Kyuss’ esque stoner rock in there, just the style of the riffs, and it really suits them either way.

So let’s start the chain of recommendations!
