Get Me Into Bands You Like

[kolby182]

Ok so i am in a rut. I haven't gotten into any new bands i really like in quite a while. I don't mean "new" but new to me. For example, Thrice. Tons of people like them but I have never really given them a shot. I've been into more Indie type stuff lately (kevin devine, two gallants, postal service) but I am open to anything. If there is a band you recommend, list the band and 3 songs you think could sell me on getting into them. Thanks duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudes.

[HangsLikeHeaven]

Ray LaMontagne - Burn
Jeff Buckley - Lover, You Should Have Come Over
Bon Iver - For Emma
Iron & Wine - Flightless Bird, American Mouth

That'll give you a start.

[_Andrew]

Modest Mouse - Float On, The World At Large, Ocean Breathes Salty
The Album Leaf - TwentyTwoFourteen, Another Day, The Outer Banks, The Light
Nada Surf - Blond on Blond, Inside of Love, Popular, Always Love
Straylight Run - Existentialism on Prom Night, It's For The Best, With God On Our Side
The Rocket Summer - Goodbye Waves and Driveways, So Much Love, Hold It Up
Third Eye Blind - Motorcycle Drive By, Semi Charmed Life, Never Let You Go

Dunno if you've ever listened to those bands but if you haven't hopefully that should get you started too...

Chasing Thrill and Built for Burning are both awesome, but they're unsigned so I don't know where you'd get their albums.
