New bands for old farts

[gtrjunior]

Just spent an hour in the cleanroom with Chon playlist running.

Meh, sounded like one long song, reminiscent of older fusion. Not for me. They can play for sure, but it nearly put me to sleep.

I just listened to a few songs on the ride home from work. My initial reaction was WOW these guys can play. That drummer is impressive....they all are really.
But I’d have to be in the mood for this. I typically like a more rock type soundscape. Something more aggressive. And even though I like the Vai, Satriani thing, I typically gravitate towards lyric based music

I'll just put this here:

Thanks to @VoidTerraFirma for the mention of 'All Them Witches' in another thread. I like very much.

Same here, saw them in the Cobain thread Totally_jammin_out

I saw them two nights ago and really enjoyed their set.

I'll make an enthusiastic recommendation for Khruangbin:

I don't get it. not terrible though. Eno's title Music for Airports comes to mind.

New classic blues rock doom.

Excellence. Thanks for sharing that yesterday.

The live sound isn't the greatest, but good enough

 

[Jbird]

Haken (progressive metal, more interesting than Dream Theater)
Vektor (extreme thrash but very progressive)
MindMaze (power/traditional/prog metal)
Alcest (shoegaze post black metal)
Avatarium (doom/retro-'70s rock)
Leprous (avant garde prog metal)
Wilderun (folk metal)
Helion Prime (power metal, cool riffing w/sci-fi themes)
Ingloriuos (old school heavy rock)

Ok, now this I dig.
Not necessarily gym music but all around good playing and songs.

 

[Dogsinplastic]

Rival Son
Cry of Love
Too Slim and the Taildraggers

But, but, but...

Cry of Love hasn't released an album in 20 years...they formed in '89.

This word, new?...I do not think you understand it's meaning.

@Guitar Heel forced me to go see them a few years ago. We will be seeing them for the third time Sunday. Ok, he didn't force me, he asked politely and I went.

The first time we saw them, I really liked the opening band, but I can't remember their name. I guess that is the old fart part

 

[Dogsinplastic]

What are we considering "new"? Last five years? Ten?

When I'm at the gym, I can go from old Bob Marley albums to Cannibal Corpse and all points in between. Is there a more specific regimen I should be following?

Let's keep it to this century. Plenty to work with that way. Especially for a group so grounded in music from 50 years ago.
