Songs you oughta hear

Well this one is actually inspired from the "Now playing" thread...
Everyone knows some artist that isn't so popular but is definitely worth hearing..
So this thread is dedicated to posting songs of not so well known artists but who are really good (according to u atleast)...

State the Song Name followed by the Artist and the Genre or a brief description of a song.

An attempt to look beyond the usual artists and songs...Please do not post songs by artists like Bryan Adams or Pink Floyd or something..every1 knows their discography..

 

smith point songs..............

 

^^lol...been called anti-neo,neo hater..but smith is new..but I should have known...It was inevitable.


Anyways,moving away from the PJs..

Example:
Castillos de Arena by Deep & Wide

Basically an instrumental guitar track but the guitar is really good...

@god
If you do not like my posts, just f*ck off.

I bet 50% of the IGT members don't listen to Metallica or don't know about them. Just because you happen to know too much about a band doesn't mean you start blaming me for putting their songs here.
I know many bitches who never heard Hotel California. So keep your sh*t to yourself.

+ I'm jus putting up the songs I call legendary.

 

hey man chill!!! im not here to fight.... the author specified strictly songs which are not known.... u said 50% of people here dont know metallica.... well atleast 50% know so i think its quite common .... no offence but the author himself wrote not to post bands like pink flloyd..

 

Songevil Take My Soul
Artist:Son of Dave and Martina Topley-Bird
Genre:Rock and Pop
Comment: Martina's got a hypnotic sensous voice, listen to her other tracks, this ones more of pop than rock

 

Pardon me dude, but I still think the non posters of IGT (silent watchers) don't know about Metallica, Eagles etc. Uneducation maybe...lol ..they stick to bollywood.

This is like an education program for em.

Sorry for the sh*t i said..ure posts jus meant a lil offensive to me :grin:

 

np dude.... sometimes words can be misleading..

 

song: o proskynitis
artist: alkinoos ioannidis
genre: greek ... yes greek.

Any ****ing song by Diana Krall.

Michelle- Anouk



A dutch band with some nice music...I'm horrible with genres so I'm really not sure where to put them.

 

Sackpipslät by Azam Ali

Dunno which genre but its not even close to rock/metal.

 

'Water', 'Chainsling, 'Dryad of the Woods' by Pain of Salvation
Progressive metal
ALL their songs are just amazing

'Return to Serenity' by Testament
Thrash metal
It's the obligatory ballad almost every metal band plays - but this one is awesomeness!

'Into the Unfathomed Tower' by Candlemass
Doom metal
Instrumental - full of metally goodness :

'Cannonball' by Damien Rice
Country
Everyone's already heard 'The Blower's daughter'

'Godless' by Danzig
Metal
Dunno, I like the atmosphere in the song

'Moment of Clarity', 'Spirit Crusher' by Death
(Not Death) Metal
I think someone called them the pioneers of death metal. RIP Chuck Schuldiner

'The Longest Day' by Iron Maiden
Heavy Metal
No, this is not 'The Trooper'

'Floods' by Pantera
Groove Metal (WTF)
Voted as #15 of the top 100 solos of all time

'Lips of Ashes', 'Heart Attack in a Layby' by Porcupine Tree
Every and no genre
Almost all their songs are just mindblowing, but these I find easy to listen to over and over.

'Operation Mindcrime' by Queensryche
Progressive (?)
Great album, great song.

'Kaiowas' by Sepultura
Brazilian Thrash (lol)
Nice song - it's on acoustic guitars.

'Possessions' by Strapping Young Lad
Extreme Metal
It's not extreme like some obscure grindcore. It's extreme in a totally different way.

'Inferno (Unleash the Fire)', 'King of Terrors' by Symphony X
Progressive Metal
Technically good, musically even better!

Meh. I don't listen to very varied styles.

 

Benighted by Opeth.
Just for the sake of the acoustic solo played at the end of the song.

Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits
If you had ever thought of writing a song.

Second Life Syndrome (the album) by Riverside
Prog metal band highly influenced by Procupine Tree, Tool and Floyd.

Any song by Sigur Rós
Just for the brilliant falsetto technique demonstrated by the vocalist.
