Old Artists/Bands you discovered in 2009?
Well, chart music hasn't been the greatest this year, so I spent most of my time looking up old artists. When I mean old, I don't mean it has to be 60's music etc., it could have been a band from 2008! Here's who I discovered;
Radiohead Blur Pulp The Clash David Bowie The Stone Roses Daft Punk The Streets Gorillaz Jeff Buckley Massive Attack Pink Floyd So, have you discovered any old artists/bands? |

Lots of bands/artists I knew about but only started listening to (and loving) this year:
Scott Walker Tom Waits Jeff Buckley Elliott Smith Nina Simone Dusty Springfield Dead Can Dance Spiritualized And if we're counting more recent acts as well then I'll add The Veils, Shearwater, The Leisure Society, The Antlers, The Organ and The Clientele. |

I pretty much got into music in 2007 (as in beyond extremely casually hearing stuff on radio). It all started when my friend showed me a video of The Pretender by Foo Fighters. Then I listened to a bunch of their other stuff and started getting into their music, and he recommended me more bands. I then bought Guitar Hero 3 because it was great fun when I played it at a friends' house, and started exploring the back catalogues of bands in the game like Metallica, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath and Muse.
