 |

Yes, I'm deeply sorry, I know these got very annoying long ago, (possibly after the second one), but I need something to help me explore more music and to get me into SH again. Feel free to completely ignore this if you want. Just to note, I can't promise any specific time frame, I'll try for one every day, sometimes I'll fit in 2 and sometimes I will avoid it for a while.
My only rules:
1. I can't have already listened to it (by that, I mean the album in its entirety)
2. No Country (by that I mean the Rascal Flats and Taylor Swift bullshit)
3. Make sure it's listenable, I listen to many different types of music but I draw the line at shit like 15 minute tracks of ambient noise and 30 minute long songs that stretch one note excessively.
4. No Country
Oh and no Country.
Ill take 30 albums, first come first serve. Also, not to stroke my own cock here, but I have a pretty broad taste in music and know a sizable amount, so don't worry about getting ridiculous and obscure. I'm just going to give the first one too me:
1. Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys by My Chemical Romance (Me) (Yes I have not listned to it yet, except for like 3 singles)
2. Avalanches - Since I Left You (sushi111)
3. Zombie EP - The Devil Wears Prada (JTHomeslice)
4. This Is Not A Game Of Who The Fuck Are You - 101010 (iam1337)
5. The Antipop by Primus (Jayfatha)
6. Bear Vs. Shark - Terrorhawk (Eastwinn)
7. Star One - Victims Of The Modern Age (Parama)
8. Best Coast - Crazy for You (Amanwithapencil)
9. J Dilla - Donuts (machchunk)
10. Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (Fugitive) (If its like Band of Horses then I'll try it)
11. Dieselboy - projectHUMAN (Venim619)
12. Eternal Devastation - Destruction (Ontwikseltsaar)
13. Gaza - I Don't Care Where I Go When I Die (wupun)
14. Phantom - Cyberchrist (MetalManiac3021)
15. Align the Planets by In Case of Fire (ScreamingEvil)
16. King of the Beach by Wavves (SteroidPirate)
17. Chimp Spanner- At The Dreams End (BiohazardABZ)
18. The Delgados - Hate (Otend)
19. Jimmy Eat World - Clarity (Olinea)
20. Asian Kung-fu Generation - Surf Bungaku Kamakura (NavyCherub)
21. DeVotchKa - How It Ends (evilpacman18)
22. Mew - No More Stories Are Told Today, I'm Sorry They Washed Away. No More Stories, The World Is Grey, I'm Tired, Let's Wash Away (olle92)
23. fun. - Aim and Ignite (InflatablePie)
24. Ayreon - The Human Equation (diddin)
25.
26.
27.
28.
29.
30.
Edit: Updated! So I'll try to get the first review up today (possibly, I'll at least start listening extensively)

Let's change things up. How about 2 EP's?
Irony is a Dead Scene - The Dillinger Escape Plan and Mike Patton
Zombie EP - The Devil Wears Prada
They have 9 tracks collectively, so that about as much as a album.

Pick one from this list. It starts with the most radio friendly and ends with the most abrasive. I figure I'd let you choose based on whether you want a break on a particular day or not.
Band - Album
Jane's Addiction - Nothing's Shocking
Mad Season - Above
Incubus - S.C.I.E.N.C.E.
Bear Vs. Shark - Terrorhawk
Snot - Get Some
Incubus - Fungus Amongus
Killing the Dream - In Place Apart
I Hate Myself - Ten Songs

Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
Broaden your horizons. This is alternative country. Now don't get all up in arms because you said No Country like a million times in the OP. This is unlike any country you've ever heard, I promise. Hence, the "alt" part. I suggest this BECAUSE you said No Country. Give it a shot and be open minded. |

He did say country but in parenthesis he specifically said "like by that I mean the Rascal Flats and Taylor Swift bullshit", meaning country pop. Let's not always assume narrow-mindedness.

He also said this:

which would include any country band. I understand what he probably meant, but Wilco would be banned with his implemented rules. I suggested them BECAUSE he specifically mentioned pop country though and I figured he could make an exception for a band that's labeled country and is entirely different from Rascal Flats and Taylor Swift. |

I see those last ones, I just think he didn't repeat the disclaimer since he felt he didn't need to.

Linkin Park - A Thousand Suns
I'd say just give it a shot before you stave it off for being Linkin Park. |
