Are you referring to Star*Can'tSayThisOnTV*er or Skrillex? Because that statement of mine was referring to Star*Can'tSayThisOnTV*er.

So my music collection continues to grow. Pandora is a magical place, in my humble opinion -- it knows me so well and it's recommended some fantastic things to me. I am so so glad I decided to try it out. The most notable recommendation is quickly becoming my latest obsession: Deftones. Holy crap I am in love with this band. I bought three of their albums recently -- Deftones, White Pony, and Diamond Eyes -- and I've enjoyed the Heck out of all three of them. I'm pretty sure this means I have to buy all their material now. I'm not even sure how to describe their sound other than it reminds me a lot of A Perfect Circle. An interesting thing to note having mentioned that: Maynard James Keenan, one of my mostest favoritest musicians ever, co-wrote and did vocals on "Passenger" from White Pony. Good grief that man gets around.
Speaking of A Perfect Circle, I bought Emotive as well. IT'S SO GOOD I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY EVERYONE SAYS IT SUCKS
Another recommendation from the most wonderful Pandora was Coheed and Cambria. Picked up IV: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness at the same time as Diamond Eyes and I really enjoyed it overall. I am making a note to check out more of their material.
Last but most definitely not least, I picked up on CD an album I've only owned on vinyl for years -- George Harrison's All Things Must Pass. If you haven't listened to this album I very highly recommend it -- it's absolutely amazing. The remastered audio makes everything even better, and the bonus tracks are spectacular. The packaging's really neat too. I'm really disappointed in myself for not buying it sooner -- every time I thought about buying it on CD I either forgot when I had the funds or had something else come up I needed the money for. When I was at Best Buy to pick up Diamond Eyes and IV I happened to see they had it in stock -- in the years I've been thinking about buying it I'd never seen it there until that day. I took that as a sign.
Next on my to-get list: King Crimson's In the Court of the Crimson King and Nine Inch Nails. SOON.
I really, really need a bigger CD rack. I have stacks of CDs all over my desk currently. ;~;

Cool New Artists
While I don't do much exploration in weird, different musicians, I always love finding neat alternative artists. In particular, just found out about Beats Antique because they played at Coachella this year (I guess that's still going on because 2 weekends and whatnot). They're kind of a sweet Traditional Arabic-DnB fusion. Give em a whirl!
I encourage you to post anything here that you might think is hip, but try not to make it mainstream junk

Re: Cool New Artists
Beats Antique are pretty neat, actually. My girlfriend loves them. They were playing a concert nearby in December or January but neither of us were able to go since the weather was too bad. :C
But, uh... did this really warrant its own thread...?
