I know it’s a cliche question, but I’m finding it really difficult to sort through the mind-blowlingly vast amounts of music and genres available, having only really gotten into music about 2008. I’m 17 and I unfortunately grew up with So Fresh and other awful concepts, so I really missed out on the good stuff.

My favourite bands are Radiohead, Elbow, I Am Kloot, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Coldplay, The Cure, Interpol, Murder By Death, Nirvana, Oasis, The Smashing Pumpkins and plenty of others. I would really like some personal recommendations on similar fantastic bands and/or the best music of past decades, and I’m not a metalhead (unless it’s just a really great album) or into hip hop/rap.

Thanks.

This week I’ve heard
System of a Down- Toxicity
Oasis- What’s the Story Morning Glory?
Paul McCartney- Ram

You add the 4th

These are the current bands I like :

Snow Patrol
Arctic Monkeys
Coldplay
Red
Crossfade
The Killers
Skillet
Oasis
Kings of Leon
The Prodigy
Pendulum

I’d like to know any bands similar to this, or any of your favourites.

I’m really into Oasis but so far i haven’t managed to buy a complete album. I’m unsure which album to get as they have done so many, so is there a ‘best of Oasis’ album i could get? And if there isn’t, which album do you think I should get?

I know it’s a non-album single and it’s not on i tunes. I’d rather download then buy a physical copy.

Sound of the Smiths by The Smiths
Wave of Mutilation by Pixies
That new Oasis greatest hits album
Best of The Cure
Is This It by The Strokes
