Schwaltzvald Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 They're not bad at all; rather pleasant to listen to really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atmuh Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 oh yeah and people have asked me time and time again whether or not i actually listen to teen popish kinda stuff and the answer is i do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwaltzvald Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Is it because female vocalists tend to be much more appealing to your ears in comparison to say, ?Not saying one's better than the other, just that one's simply more appealing to ya than the other.

Schwaltzvald Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Ah well that's okay. I'll forever head bang but I'll also be djping to the newer stuff too. Thanks for sharing them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatar of Justice Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Try out Imogen Heap if you haven't already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwaltzvald Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Try out Imogen Heap if you haven't already. Great voice but man I dislike vocoders... I feel they mangle the voice more so than actually enhance it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuIzA Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 well, usually I prefer male vocals over female vocals any day. But these are among my very favorite singers: Sandra Nasić, solo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I'm personally a fan of Kate Bush - numerous popular artists have covered or emulated her songs, or state her as an influence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwaltzvald Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 And I still have their older albums... That voice, this image feels more appropriate than in the other thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuIzA Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 to be honest I never liked this song or their last record ("Bleed Like Me") as much as "Garbage" or "Version 2.0". She still has one hell of a voice though, and I sure hope they go through with releasing a new record this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Biznut Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Thought I haven't listened to them much at all in the last two years, I'll post a link to my favorite song from . I don't know if the AMV is any good... She actually reminds me a lot of Celtic Woman.DragnBerth's links are solid; I'll add Sinergy's Passage to the Fourth World, but the vocal quality isn't the best IMO. It isn't very well defined in the mix, kind of dull. Metric and Garbage are good bands with talented vocalists. I also like the girl from Paramore, her voice is pretty solid IMO.

Truth be told, though, the only time I actually hear any of these bands (with the exception of Nightwish) is on Pandora or through YouTube, lol. Listened to the Sinergy song. I liked it, although I'd have to agree the vocals were kind of dull... in the sense that they were very typical of what one might expect from a Power Metal band thats just getting started. Still good, though. Some others I just realized I forgot: After Forever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ella guro Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 It's alllllllllllllllllll about PJ Harvey (I'm completely and utterly obsessed with her (she is a goddess)) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVKpA6QHZ74 I don't know of any performer who is as emotionally direct, challenging yet also accessible musically, or fucking sexy as she is. And I love how she tries a different approach with each album. The fact that she recorded one of the best albums of all time in "Rid of Me" at the age of 23 (with her backing band) is staggering. Certainly one of the best female artists there ever was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ella guro Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 A separate post, because I <3 PJ too much to put another artist in the same post. I'm big a fan of Joanna Newsom, especially her first album. Mostly her songwriting/harp playing, though her singing is certainly unique and not nearly as annoying as people make it out to be. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vodb-dJOqoU I like this band White Magic a lot, especially their vocalist. She reminds me of Grace Slick from Jefferson Airplane, who I'm also a fan of. I like The Breeders a lot. Kim Deal has a very cute voice. There are like a billion female artists I need to get into. My music collection is way too male-dominated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireSlash Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I've been digging k-pop mixes for a while now. I've just noticed Robotaki (who posts here) has been busy on a few as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palpable Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 There's also these clowns: Flickerfall Our sound is pretty comparable to some of the artists listed in your last.fm, atmuh, so you might like it if you haven't checked out our music before. I'll also add that Imogen Heap and Bjork are two of my all-time favs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monobrow Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I like Tori Amos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mO7cSULO3l4 <--- here dudes in fruit of a loom randomly show up and move her around http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZWooHedsgk&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajJBwiZzc5M&feature=related <--- here she plays with snakes and rats Mostly her older stuff, her voice is not as great since she's now like 50.
