The Faint - Best EVER!
Third Eye Blind
Vengaboys

The Faint - Best EVER!

The Faint are a rather average Electro-gothic band, ripping off Clan of Xymox and Depeche Mode, without really adding anything new to the formula. Good, yes, but to call them the best ever, is quite simply, insane.

Off the top of my head I can list five bands, who do the exact same thing, better -

Clan of Xymox
Depeche Mode
New Order
The Cruxshadows
Wolfshiem

- and infinetly more if I wanted to. You should check out Dark Horizons Radio, if you like that kind of stuff. Their website is a really great resource, and the show is wonderful (it's on every Thursday night at 8:00pm EST [GMT -5, I think], here WMNF).

Anyways, I can't really do this topic properly, unless it took a simply monstrous leangth of time to do, and, well, I'm not that bored.

Well, it was an opinion about the artists that I had listed there. Not really saying they are the best band that ever was. But, yeah, my scope on music is really limited anyway. Of the electroclash music I've heard, I've liked theirs the best, though. I haven't listened to any of those bands and I've only heard of Depeche Mode, so what albums of theirs would you recommend?

Well, from those particular artists, I would say -

Depeche Mode - Violater

New Order - Substance

Clan of Xymox - Twist of Shadows

The Cruxshadows - Ethernaut

Wolfshiem - Casting Shadows

- are the ones to go for, if you only get one. The links take you to the Barnes and Noble website for the items, where you can listen to audio samples (to see what you think of them), and buy them (if you want).

Loads of act that I play or like songs by.

at the moment I would say

Stone Roses
Oasis
808 State
Elephant Man (I am not a huge fan of the dancehall reggae but one of my mate loves it and I am kind of getting into it slowly)

Celldweller
In Extremo
Rammstein

Rancid

Ministry

Front 242
