Inspirational Artists/Musicians

Dusty Nothing · 10-16-2008, 02:35 PM

There has probably been other threads about this subject, but I thought it would be a good idea for people to be able to share their personal preferences in the music/art department. I'm keen to learn about new age music and who people would suggest listening to.
I also think it's good to share certain bands who have been, say, talking about these things for a long time.

here's some suggestions from me:

Electric Wizard - very psychedelic, occult band, some people may find their lyrics quite negative but in my opinion they are a great escape from everyday drudgery.... anger is an energy

Dead Meadow - I've never met anybody who cannot appreciate their music, and in my opinion their lyrics are one of a kind.

DJ Muggs Vs Sick Jacken - I recently got the new album made by these two, at first I was rather skeptical because I noticed how many songs had focused on nwo/reptilians/2012/, was thinking that maybe it was just them being opportunitists.. but after a listen they generally know about these subjects and are using hip-hop to wake even more people up.

Feel free to delete this thread if you feel it isn't relevant, I just thought it'd be interesting.

I haven't listened to much of other peoples music etc for years. But here's a link to something I put together myself a couple of years ago. It's not new-age music but it's topical for the state of the age:

Mr. Bob Marley and other Reggae artists are spreading a positive Vibe...

ONE Love

Dusty Nothing · 10-16-2008, 02:59 PM

totally agree with system of a down, bob marley and the like definatly help with the positive vibes, but there's something else i've found with bob marley these past few years.
I was enjoying a psychedelic experience with the music of bob marley a while back, and this may just be me, but so much of his lyrics were incredibley relevant to things going on these days, eerily, I couldn't quote any right now exactly but it would be interesting to see if others had noticed this with bob marley.

Anything by Therion. Swedish band. Very good mix of classical music and metal. Insightful esoteric lyrics. The double album Lemuria/ Sirius B is excellent.

Excerpt from the latest album Gothic kabbalah:

I do feel the same way, until recently I couldn't make much sense of his lyrics, but these days it hits me clearer and clearer. Study this man's lyrics he was and still is a genius with a MESSAGE

Greetings in the name of the most high...

Hi

I was introduced to Bob Marley when I was about 15 and growing up in South Africa. His politics really woke me up and resonated with me deeply. His music has been a part of my life through the good and the bad - and it always seems topical and uplifting. Bob is one of my gods

Michael Franti along with Spearhead and/or the Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy have some pretty powerful lyrics on a political and spiritual level.

And now to have a listen to the above suggestions.....
