Massive Attack, Red Snapper, Laika, Portishead, all the dark haunting beautiful atmospheric beats I've been into forever and can't live without. Downtempo, chillout, night driving, get your girl all sexed up music. so who's with me? :bow:

i don't know trip-hop, but i know that Justin Broadrick has some influence from that style.

massive attack = the balls
i don't have any particular favorites, i typically go with a pandora-esque online radio station that plays all sorts of random artists no one has ever heard of

FAIL.
you didn't mention Forest for the Trees.
[Oct 7,2008 3:53pm - ouchdrummer ""]
never heard forest for the trees. silly name though. than again.....ouch?
[Oct 7,2008 3:55pm - darkwor ""]
i didn't know that about godflesh, makes a whole lot of sense though. and i guess i have to check out forest for the trees!

They're not like Massive Attack or any of those bands.
listen to the song "infinite cow." Their songs usually have so many subtle things going on in the background - it's crazy.

Portishead rules all. Remember Tricky? The into of the Masters of Illusion record (Kool Keith and Motion Man) says "there's no such thing as trip hop. Its a figment of a lame cunts imagination. There's g funk, west coast, miami bass, underground, but there's no such thing as trip hop." He elaborates more, ever heard this? I think is a slim genre on the line of not being one. Like tardcore or scat grind.

i almost saw massive attack sometime last year i think at the orpheum but.... i didn't

one of my fav genres <3 portisheads last release was pretty decent.. their older stuff if better but i was just stoked to hear that the released somethgin after a decade. beth gibbons voice is incredible.

england comes out with some of the stangest shit, i think anyway.
the latest portishead was ok
beth gibbons has a solo album out also
[Oct 7,2008 11:52pm - ellesarusrex ""]
shes been doing solo since their split.
[Oct 8,2008 9:45am - darkwor ""]
i guess if a few million people on last.fm use the trip-hop term to describe a recognizable familiar type of music, then it's a genre to me
and i had no idea they were at the orpheum...would've definitely been there..[Oct 8,2008 9:47am - darkwor ""]
beth gibbons' voice scares the hell out of me. but i do listen to a lot of portishead.
[Oct 8,2008 9:48am - aril ""]

check out Akufen
