Surprised this hasn't been posted (I don't think it has, anyway).

The title track is some trippy shit.

Goldfrapp is another good call but only if you stick to the first album. IE avoid (like the plague) the ones that follow it as they're just incredibly homo-erotic synth-pop compared to the mondo bizarro synth-ambience of the debut.

this is the one you want.
'Lovely Head' and 'Paper Bag' are simply stunning IMO...
'Lovely Head Video:

'Paper Bag' (tune not an officil video or owt):

Aside from that, not wanting to state the obvious, but Massive Attack are pretty much as mandatory as it gets with 'trip-hop'.

I love Goldfrapp! Her most recent album Seventh Tree is my favorite. Saw her twice this year. lol

I endorse this statement.

Eternal Recurrence · 10-20-2008, 11:48 AM

Great album. Super catchy post-hardcore with a unique sound.
Fans of At The Drive-In, The Blood Brothers and Circa Survive should like this.

I think I need to re-visit this album. I always heard great things but couldn't quite get into it when I first checked it out. Maybe another try is in order.

Jizzlobber · 10-20-2008, 09:11 PM

Out of all their albums, I think this is the most beautiful. After I heard The Road and the Damned I had to hear it 5 more times.

vencha · 10-25-2008, 08:43 PM

Haha, I like how the Coheed and Cambria recommendation completely killed this thread.

hahaha, word.

Great album from Sixtoo, chilled out instrumental hip-hop with hints of jazz.

I still can't find any music from that band you showed me about a year ago.

"Flight to Nowhere" was such an awesome song.

Not beautiful?

No, but I do understand what you mean. Guess it's not what you traditionally would call beautiful. But for me really sad sounding music (like alot of instrumental post-rock) always been really beautiful. Also really sad sounding jazz trios and stuff like that really makes me think of "beautiful". Even more than Jeff buckley and the like.

By the way? Apart from drone, are there noone out there whos really into neofolk?
I would love if anyone who havent heard/heard little of neofolk downloaded this album and gave a short thought about it.
