Nick Cave, for the longest time I just didn't give him any kind of chance. *regret*

Well, doing duets with Kylie Minogue isn't going to win you many credibility points, so I can see why you might have beaten him off with a pointy stick...

It was the duet with PJ Harvey that first intrigued me, honestly. That one with Kylie sucks, IMNSHO.

Well... I'm quite sure I don't know WHAT you mean!!


The song's okay, he's okay.

It's Kylie that sucks.

Question is, did she swallow?

Are you kidding? She's probably one of those silly girls who doesn't even know proper etiquette! Everyone knows a lady never spits.

SPK - finally got around to listening to some of their stuff on youtube and had so many eargasms that I thought my head was gonna explode.

Yes, I know, "for shame..."; Type O Negative. Everyone had been telling me, for about eight years now, I should listen to them. I have always preferred Black metal, and death metal, so I never got around to it, until about two hours ago. I am still listening to them now, in fact. Slower then my normal pace, but, it seems to have a stimulating effect on my mind. This is going to become like an addiction, I know it.

Somewhat recently;
Echo & The Bunnymen
The Pixies
Radiohead

I had heard some of their songs before, and knew I liked them, but I never seemed to get around delving into their discographies until the past year or two.

Crime & the City Solution

Rowland S Howard was an amazing genius (and dead sexy, too), and my greatest regret is only being familiar with The Birthday Party and his work with Lydia Lunch before he died.

Voltaire... *sigh*

Aurelio Voltaire...could you even get a sexier name than that?

They're a great band that, like 13th century, really need to start coming over here from time to time. Might even convince me to actually go to a concert for entertainment instead of for employment.

I feel bad to admit this: I initially gave them a try because all the press photos I kept seeing of them was with that older hearse. It's like picking an album at random based on the cover art, but in this case it so paid off.

The Cruxshadows

Lene Lovich
Deadfly Ensemble
The Batonist

March Violets

Esben and the Witch. They came out earlier last year, and I put them on hold, thinking they didn't sound too good from the iTunes previews, but when I finally came around to it, I was like... "This is great." Ya know?

I got into this music just a few years ago - so there are a lot of bands that I wish I'd found earlier... Just to name a few: Emilie Autumn, Skinny Puppy, Eycromon, Sisters of Mercy, :Wumpscut:, Leather Strip, Clinic...
