Segue Myles Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 So, we all have different tastes. But we hear so much about music dying, so let's just list the bands/artists that keep music ALIVE for us! They have to still be active. They can be any age, but must have had a studio album released within the last ten years, plus touring. We have had so much sadness this past month with two major deaths, so let's keep this positive and praise what WE think is keeping our ears fresh to new sounds. No arguing about tastes please, just celebrate what you love, whether it be Taylor Swift or Cult Of Luna. Sharing is caring! Let's be POSITIVE for the future of our music! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue J Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Very much appreciate the positive vibes, Segue! Tedeschi Trucks Band is one that people around here may not think of.

Last time they were in Harrisburg I had a massive flu (story of my life) and gave the tickets to the guy that cuts my hair. I was happy/unhappy to hear- "Thanks again! It was a fantastic show! Didn't know what to expect!" yay/ sigh . . . Edited January 15, 2016 by blueschica 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djflex Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Plenty of good stuff happening imo. Old and new bands still releasing some quality The world of metal is breaking new barriers. Although the last album was a let down , the sword is awesome A non metal band that i consider pure genius is god is an astronaut. They are instrumental but strongly feel that would be loved by this forum. I dunno maybe no one likes them here. Scar symmetry last album was a winner in my book.
