Good music from your countryMusic

[Anghammarad]

Let's hear something good from your country that may not be well known in the whole world (yet).

I'll start with swedish band Movits whose latest hit Sammy Davis Jr at least puts a smile on my face.

 

[ivoyared]

My favorite song from my country must be Brasileirinho - Waldir Azevedo



It's beautiful. Good ol' Chorinho

 

[EmptySoul]

Kreator, just to name one Band.

 

[AMCNUT]

Canada's very own Bachman & Turner:

 

[itsbenjibrand]

The Tragically Hip, Rush, Neil Young, Sam Roberts Band, Sum 41, The Trews... That's all I can recall of right now, but there are a lot, and I mean a lot more!

 

[Anghammarad]

The Tragically Hip, Rush, Neil Young, Sam Roberts Band, Sum 41, The Trews... That's all I can recall of right now, but there are a lot, and I mean a lot more!

Don't forget Celine Dion and Shania Twain as well...

 

[Crash]

From my country? Well now that you asked...

 

[MilesPrower32]

You may or may not know this song already, but I love it!

It's called Like the Angel by Rise Against.

 

[Ru-fus]

U2, Enya, Van Morrison, The Cranberries, Westlife, Clannad, Thin Lizzy, The Corrs, Boyzone, Sinéad O'Connor, The Undertones, Daniel O'Donnell and Ash (had their tracks in GT 1 & 2 soundtracks i think)

In more recent years: Snow Patrol, The Script, Two Door Cinema Club.

Think who I've mentioned would be known on an international basis in there respective genres

 

[Ibonibo]

Haha @ Friday

As Luxemburg is a tiny country we don't have masses of good music:
but this last year newcomer is not bad mainstream wise

 

[british-sniper9]

For english people about my age (15) dubstep is quite a popular genre that has grown on a lot of people over the years. It's relatively new at the moment (been knocking around for around 5 years).
A good example (if you'll pardon the pun) would be this:

Patricio Rey y Sus Redonditos de Ricota - Jijiji (Hehehe)



La Renga - La Balada Del Diablo y La Muerte (The Ballad of The Devil and Death)

Translation to the last song. (Not 100% accurate, but it's something.) Also, video of the song.


Those are probably the first two songs you will hear when someone is asked about Argentine Rock Anthems. I'm afraid though, unless you understand spanish, you won't get any enjoyment out of these two songs.

For any math rock, instrumental nu progressive thing...

[zedextreme8177]

My favorite local song, I love the tune and the lyrics:



And this one gets a 👍 for originality, you might understand some of it

 

[livemusic]

Most of the music I listen to is international, and the few Brazilian bands I like are mostly from the '90s and before. Here are a few:

Legião Urbana


Raul Seixas


Engenheiros do Hawaii

 

[Racedude]

It means something like "The wild Mexico".

 

[FlandreScarlet]

From my country?
Hmmmm

No, But seriously

 

[Rossticles]

I think listing what's from my state would be more appropriate.

ZZ Top
Willie Nelson
Buddy Holly
Janis Joplin
Pantera
Flyleaf
The Toadies
Stevie Ray Vaughn

I could go on and on about the rap from Texas, specifically Houston. Same goes for country music in Texas, but I don't like that as much.

Pantera rulez !



Brazil has very good music:tup:! I remember Sepultura com o Max Cavalera, Angra, Carlinhos Brown, and many many others!

My country?! There aint any!

 

[Apok]

Let's ignore for a second, that it says I'm from New York and focus on the fact that I'm from Slovenia.

With that out of the way I'll begin my post.


I would post Laibach here, but they're not as popular here as they are on the international market.

So:








We also have our fair share of lame female pop singers, but that's not good music...
At all.

 

[Skython]

NZ doesn't have any good music, except for my brother's old band, and my mate's band, Seven Sacred Days

 

[Joel]

I'm Canadian, Arcade Fire and Rush are our best musical exports in my opinion.


Well, besides Celine Dion

 

[itsbenjibrand]

Rush is good. Haven't heard Arcade Fire, The Tragically Hip, Sum 41, The Trews, Finger Eleven, Neil Young, the list goes on. And it must be said, don't listen to Celine Dion or Michael Buble, they are Canada's worst musicians.

 

[Joel]

Forgot Neil Young, another one of our best. The Trews and the Hip are OK, but I can't say I agree with Finger Eleven and Sum 41. I actually don't mind Bublé that much, but I'd never buy his music.


EDIT: Looked up the page again, how did I forget Deadmau5?

And Bieber of course!


EDIT 2:

Canada's very own Bachman & Turner:

These guys too.

 

[itsbenjibrand]

Anyone else agree that Burton Cummings is a good Canadian musician?

 

[Daniel]

NZ doesn't have any good music, except for my brother's old band, and my mate's band, Seven Sacred Days

WRONG!



Oh, don't forget Flight of the Conchords



Telecom, a mobile provider and ISP here uses a lot of Kiwi songs, and Violins and Violence, and Baby Come On 👍

So if there's any kiwi songs that you wanna listen to, search Telecom NZ on youtube
