I need some new music

Shania, Huey Lewis, George Thorogood, Peter Frampton, Pearl Jam, Van Halen, CCR, Dire Straits, Grand Funk Railroad, Steve Miller Band,

K-TRON

 

Hey I thought the OP said "new" music. I saw Huey last summer in Watertown NY - great show, he's still got it. Some of "The News" is still original although Chris Hayes (guitarist) was replaced by Steph Burns, who in my opinion is much better live. Huey also sang and played harmonica on Umphrey's last album for the song "Beer, Wine & Women", which he co-wrote with the band. I got some good pics of my friends and me with Huey after the show, complete with the signature "eyebrows-up" Huey expression.

Anyway, back on topic. For some older bands I would suggest:

Frank Zappa (of course)
King Crimson
Steely Dan
Genesis
Allman Brothers Band
Phish
Talking Heads
CSNY
Jethro Tull

 

i did, but this stuff's always good, but already on my ipod

Long live George Thorogood! xD
"One bourban, one scotch, one beer!!!!!"

 

Just got a couple of tracks just yesterday. Dont know if they new or old. I just heard them so they new to me.

This Conversation is Over - Alesana
(couple songs from I dont remember) - Anberlin
Error Operator - Taking Back Sunday
Cute without the 'E' - ''

Couple of my favorite tracks of all time:

In pieces - Linkin Park
Trembling - Yellow Card
Breathing - Yellow Card
It's Not a Fashion Statement, It's a Deathwish - My Chemical Romance
Helena - ''

Pretty mainstream stuff me thinks.

 

Sign up for Last.fm and Pandora and search these groups on there.

 

Radiohead. Especially their most recent album, In Rainbows.

 

Reckoner is a great song from that album. I bought a copy when it first came out.

 

The band I'm currently into right now is Hell is For Heroes. Here's a sample,
