only one each. try and think of something people haven't heard of, and a reason why.

beastie boys - i don't know

even if you don't like the beasties, go for it nevertheless. it's an acoustic guitar track which doesn't sound anything like their usual stuff but it's bloody excellent.

Come on suggest some songs. Where's Sonic Youth?

I suggest At the Drive-In - One Armed Scissor

If you like anything loud download this it is an incredible song an all time classic and one of the most energetic songs ever made.  Just gets better and better the more you listen to it. There's no-one quite like them. 10/10


Here is a review of it from allmusic.com:

Quote
"One Armed Scissor" is the standout track from Relationship of Command and possibly At the Drive-In's career highlight. The song is a charging, tempo-shifting beast of storming dynamic sounds and cathartic emotional release. Seemingly starting mid-song with a bold swoosh of pounding drums and punching guitar power, then keeping pace with a metronome of ticking drums, "One Armed Scissor" is arranged perfectly to showcase its grand chorus. Cedric Bixler moans, rushes through political passages, and sneers like an angry wolverine. Fractured guitar notes stab at the air, and drums race like dragsters. When the chorus and chief hook emerge, it's a killer moment. Each time it repeats, it's a shot in the arm. "Send transmission from the one armed scissor, cut away, cut away," screams Bixler like a general calling for his troops to advance and attack on an unseen enemy. An army of guitars and drums assaults and batters empty spaces around Bixler's glowering voice. It's difficult to imagine that At the Drive-In could have topped "One Armed Scissor" had they not broken up shortly after the album's release.

Mr Moon - Mando Diao

The best Swedish band of the moment.  It was a toss up between Mr Moon and To China with love, also from their debut album "Bring em in".

Quality album, recorded in one of the bands garages btw, and they're even better live.

Dissociatives are alright. Daniel John's singing and playing guitar. And keyboard player (Paul Mac).
Sounds quite chilling music with a littie bit of dance beat to it.
