I can't find any music I want to listen to anymore.

[Stonewall]

hmm, I was listening to some of my sister's cds today. You could check out Clannad. You could probably best describe them as a folk band, though most of their stuff is fairly contemporary. About half of their songs are sung in Gaellic.

I can get back to you with song titles to check out if you feign interest.

 

[Spiff]

Clannad rule, even though I've only heard the Robin Hood song.

I have every Clannad album , awesome stuff , my favourite album of theirs is Lore , apart from that if you want melancholic and calm stuff , check out Secret Garden , they are really cool as well , sometimes uplifting , very nevertheless very cool .
Check out Loreena McKennit , if you dont have The Mask And The Mirror , you havent lived , its a classic !!!!
Ive been listening to Josh Groban's Closer album , fucking awesome if you like semi operatic vocals , yet understandable , he is great !!!!!!!
There is definately alot on offer in world music , its really an unexplored style for many metal fans .
Cheers...........Chris

Check out Rasputina too, if yuo ever get a chance. And if you can ever find an album. A female goth-inspired string quartet. They rock.

And look up The Handsome Family. They also rock, in a country goth kinda way.

And the Ulysses 31 theme.

I did quite enjoy that album.

Also, I got the Halo album of their website and it's quite nice.

Folk music I have been fairly over exposed to because the majority of my friends are filthy hippies.

What's country goth? Is that where you have sex with your cousin while wearing a black cape?

 

[Static]

Listen to Talking Heads.

I have finally organised that Watchmaker burn for you Josh, but I'm having trouble burning it onto the crappy CDs I have.
