Looking to check out new music. Any recs?

[RobParticipant 80]

So I grew up listening to most hits on the radio. Music never was huge deal in our family, just something in the background.

Now that I’ve been going to the gym more, also having more time to myself I want to start enjoying more music. Can’t spend all day just watching tv. Plus I’ve found music can take my mind off things when I’m stressed the f~~~ out.

Problem is most songs I here are either Whiney bitches complaining about some guy, or wanting to go to the club to have sex, or else it’s some bluepill simp talking about getting pussy. I swear all of pop music these days is patheic and I don’t need any more of that s~~~ in my life

Anything y’all can recommend, that isn’t woman-centric or sex-centric?

I’ve heard some guys like classical but I have 0 experience in that field and wouldn’t know where to start.

Any recommendations I’ll probably check out.

Joe Bonnamassa, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Black Keys [old stuff, not their new s~~~], ZZ Top, Allman Brothers, Tesla.

I’m with Beach Bum on the Doors. Fantastic.

Apprecite the responses brothers. busy week, but I’ve been slowly going through the list. Liking the Doors and slowly making my way through Strange Days. Already like The Offspring and Rush.

Im pretty open to most genres so glad to have a lot to sample from.

Here is one solution, listen to foreign music that is in a language that you can’t understand. Then you can enjoy the music and pretend the lyrics are about anything you want. That’s what I do.

I like this guy…

[SpiderHerderParticipant 3766]

Well, maybe you won’t like those recommandations but here are some songs that I like:

Vexare – Still Remaining (dubstep, but very melodic, gives me goosebumps, no vocals)

Portal – Your Kettle (progressive rock, brilliant songwriting and musicianship).

Anyway, that’s it for now.
