I need suggestions on new music
I recently realised that I have completely stopped engaging with new music. At best I download an individual song here and there. I remember that I used to get into entire albums rather than just having a playlist of random songs on shuffle.
What I would like to know is what albums people have recently discovered that they have had religious experiences with. I'm more interested in relatively new music but it is interesting to hear what people are discovering in the way of older music. At the moment my playlist has everything from Nine Inch Nails to Bjork. Things like Mr Bungle, Tori Amos, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Tool even some Neil Diamond and Sarah McLachlan. A bit random. So what are some albums that I should be downloading?

The favorite songs thread is full of Breaking Benjamin and Creed. This forum is not the place for this question.

last.fm is a great way to find music you like that is similar to your tastes.
I am a huge metalhead. I can't really suggest much to you given your tastes. Though, an album that I have been listening to nonstop since its release is Shogun, by Trivium. | ||

I think the quintessential religious experience album is F♯A♯∞ by Godspeed You! Black Emperor but I'd guess you've already heard it.
Here's some others that come close (for me anyway). Sleep - Dopesmoker (stoner/doom metal) Disillusion - Back to Times of Splendor (prog metal) Can - Tago Mago (experimental/psychedelic rock) Colour Haze - Colour Haze (stoner/psychedelic rock) Isis - Panopticon (atmospheric sludge metal) King Crimson - Larks' Tongues in Aspic (experimental/prog rock) My Bloody Valentine - Loveless (shoegaze) My Morning Jacket - Okonokos (indie/alt rock) The Strokes - Is This It (garage rock) The Tragically Hip - Fully Completely (canadian blues/alt rock) The Velvet Underground - The Velvet Underground and Nico (art rock) If you enjoy any of those albums, we'll be good friends. Edit: Just noting, I chose them based on their strength as ALBUMS.

There's a lot of good artsy music out of New York again these days, of all different varieties. If you like NIN and Bjork both I'm guessing you're into that more than mainstream.
ex.: Vampire Weekend - A Punk or bands like MGMT and Interpol, who have been around for a few years. Its frequently hit or miss, but you can often finds really cool bands beneath the radar that you'll enjoy. | ||

King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King
Prog rock/jazz from 1960. You either like it or you don't. I do. 21st Century Schizoid Man is a great song from this album, but listen to the whole thing as each song is radically different. Bob James & David Sanborn - Double Vision Jazz? This album is the best. Whether you're working, studying, gaming, reading or talking to a friend - this is the album to play. After the first listen-through, it grows on you and everytime you keep hearing more details in every song. A must have for true music lovers. Links are to AllMusic, the guide to music. Browse that site for artists you like, follow the recommendations and you'll soon find new great stuff to listen to.
