I’m aiming to expand my favourite musical artists over the next year. I probably haven’t changed the songs in my Ipod mini for over a year. I’ve been massively into Metallica since early 1990’s and have rarely branched out. For a bit of difference I don’t mind Megadeth, Slayer, Kid Rock, Johnny Cash, White Zombie, RHCP and Pantera.
The goal is to sample 26 new artists over the next year. I’ll listen to one per fortnight and either keep listening to it or turf it. I’m not fussy about the genre or anything like that as the goal of this is to get outside the square a little.
What I’m asking for are names of your favourite artists and ‘must listen to’ songs of their’s. It will make the whole process a whole lot easier. For example…

To the Coheed and Cambria fans…can you tell me what the deal is with this band? Is the whole thing based on a comic book?
They’re like my totally, cooleioliest favorite band lately, but I don’t know what the fuck they are singing abouot…stuff on the web about them just confuses me more.
not a group but a special cd if you’re into metal and hard rock.
Roadrunner United: The All Star Sessions
Joey Jordison(Slipknot, Murderdolls), Matt Heafy(Trivium), Dino Cazares(Divine Heresy, Asesino, ex-Fear Factory & ex- Brujeria), and Robert Flynn(Machine Head ex-Vio-lence & ex-Forbidden) were team captains that could ask anyone that was currently with or had ever been with Roadrunner Records to sit in on the songs. a few of the musicians with their current and former bands so you’ve got a few more to check out.
Jeff Waters (Annihilator)
Mark Hunter (Chimaira)
Glen Benton (Deicide)
King Diamond (King Diamond)
Nadja Peulen (Coal Chamber)
Dani Filth (Cradle Of Filth)
Mike Smith (Suffocation)
Mikael Åkerfeldt (Opeth)
Kyle Thomas (Alabama Thunderpussy)
Steve Holt (36 Crazyfists)
Peter Steele (Type O Negative, ex-Carnivore)
Andreas Kisser (Sepultura)
Michale Graves (Misfits)
Rob Barrett (Cannibal Corpse)
Justin Hagberg (3 Inches of Blood)
Steve DiGiorgio (Death, Testament, Vintersorg, Sebastian Bach, Sadus, Autopsy, Control Denied)
Dave Chavarri (Ill Niño)
I’m not sure if you’ll like any of this but it’s a mixture of some punk type stuff, a little metal, a little hardcore. Stuff that gets me pumped up at the gym.
