The One by Taking Back Sunday has been hitting all the right boxes for me, which is something I never thought I’d say. It almost feels like U2 meets the Killers at parts. I really dig it.
Blackwater Holylight is another new discovery for me. Heavy riffs, smooth melodies, great vocals. I’m gonna explore more of these ladies’ stuff this week.
Finally, I found myself returning to Killers by Iron Maiden a lot this week. Such a great sophomore record, and the intro of Wrathchild gets me going more than any other song in a long time! Genghis Khan is also one of my favorite metal instrumentals ever. Check it out if you haven’t heard it before!
wasn’t expecting to like these as much as i did! taking back sunday is a band i’ve been meaning to look into for a long time, but have never really gotten around to. and blackwater holylight, while a little bit low energy for me personally, has a really lovely laid back sound that i like too!
your ghengis khan suggestion reminds me of this ghengis kahn which is a pretty different genre, but pretty catchy nonetheless
The video for Miike Snow's Genghis Khan is pretty great.
