I've spent the past few years trying to convince myself that today's music sucks. That's fucking stupid so I need /mu/'s help to become informed. Give me the best modern musicians /mu/.
>>62926535
Genre?
>>62926535
that Glenn Miller guy leads a pretty good band
>>62926651
Anything you think is good genre doesn't matter
>>62926535
Black Moth Super Rainbow is a relatively modern band and they are my favorite thing I've listened to of the last few years. Check this out it was the first song I heard by them https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4CazYAWgHw
>>62926767
Alright I'll give it a listen.
>>62926801
let me know what you think I'm genuinely curious.
Kanye
Deafheaven - Brought to the water
>>62926681
Try Order of The White Hand, Windhand and Sun O)))
>>62926535
Cage the Elephant, Queens of The Stone Age, Gorillaz , The Heavy, AnCo, Radiohead
>>62926535
Well what do you look for in music. Tough to recommend good things when we don't know what you like
>>62926863
I don't think its bad but their choice of instruments is definitely strange. Is that a banjo?
>>62926911
too many people on /mu/ hate this album
>>62926911
I usually prefer rock but I enjoy most genres blues, jazz, even some country.
>>62926944
Yeah they mix folksy instruments with electro occasionally. Other times they usually just go straight pop with funk influences. I think it really works.

There was a lot of great music from last year alone.
>>62926911
I can't really get into this, thanks for trying.
>>62927144
I've heard good things about Joanna Newsom, are they true?
>>62927322
I like some of cage the elephants stuff haven't heard much of the rest.
>>62926987
Try Channel Orange by Frank Ocean, most people like it and it's not genre bound
Young Fathers are the Massive Attack of the 2010s
>>62926987
Well, you could try entry-level stuff like Kurt Vile, Courtney Barnett, The Dear Hunter, Eagles of Death Metal, Anathema, Ty Segall, Riverside, Cloud Nothing, Deerhunter and The War on Drugs. I'm not the greatest resource when it comes to modern rock though. IMO the gems of the decade are electronic music through and through.

>>62928143
Wrong reply
>>62927380
Alright thanks for all your suggestions I'm going to go and listen to some of it and see if I like it. OP out
One of my favourites from last year, pretty catchy indie rock with some crunch to it and some pretty insightful lyrics.
inb4 /mu/ calls me pleb

>>62926908
Cage the Elephant's latest album was a disappointing pop record
what are you into opie
melt-banana is my favorite currently active band
>>62926535
It was released within the last ten years so yeah
>>62928513
Sure but Melophobia and s/t are GOAT
>>62926908
This.
Perfect entry level I used to this modern music is shit-core
>>62928646
honestly I thought TYHB was their best by far, but that's probably due to some noise rock factors i was really fond of

Holy shit, what a pleb. Or am I being trolled?
I've been liking Jason Aldean's recent work. Give Old Boots New Dirt a listen.
This seems like the most relevant thread without me making a new one.
Has anybody here seen GY!BE live? Do they put on a good show? They're in my city next week, was thinking about checking them out.
>>62929161
I've seen them live but it was like the second or third reunion show they played so it was over five years go. It was really good though, they played for two hours, they had a projector showing film clips.
Only negatives was they played all of Sleep except for the end and I made the mistake of buying an album before their set so I had to hold a 12 inch record for two hours,
>>62928915
>Anderson .Paak
What did you think of Malibu?
>>62929372
I've downloaded it but I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet. Interested in hearing it because it seems like that guy is on the verge of being a megastar.
>>62928731
Yeah it also much better than TMIP, a shame really
Sigur Rós
>>62928971
No you're just a piece of shit.
