Foreign Bands

[Silva]

I've noticed that almost everybody on the English forum is from a country outside of Russia, and I was wondering what other Russian or foreign bands you guys like other than Tatu.
I personally like Ruki Vverh, Virus, and some Maksi M, Nichya, Propaganda and Russkii Razmer songs. I also like some of the bands in France such as Alizee and Superbus.

I know there are tons of great bands out their that we don't know about, and i'm sure you guys could name a few.

[Kate]

I personally like calm songs from Diana Gurckaya. She is a blind girl, and has a really beautiful voice, I love her songs.

[Jan]

Aukcion (Аукцыон) , Nautilus Pompilius, Kino, Aquarium (mainly old stuff)

[Synthetic]

Silva, I like mostly the Russian stuff you mentioned, and I like akula too...but SUPERBUS! Man, I love them! :D Did you hear of them from me a really long time ago?? :D They're great! I like Jalane too, she's French...

[thegurgi]

I love Sigur Ros from Iceland, and Hoover Phonics from Belgium.

[Silva]

Lol, yea, it was from you Synthetic :)
Hmm, I don't think I've heard of any of the bands you guys mentioned. I'm definetly going to check them out though.

Does Nichya count? :confused:

[Synista]

Bijelo Dugme

[goku]

I like Propoganda and Rammestein...

[Silenced Sonix]

Tweak - for all the punkheads out there! They're local (that means South African) and they're quite good.

[namphuong]

On the world music awards there was a French girl who sang on stage. She was the top singer of the year in France, her name starts with an "A" (not much help I know - just work with me please lol) - she had short brown hair (bob style) and she had a skirt on. If anyone knows whom I'm talking about please let me know I would really appreciate the help.

Because even though I don't know what she was singing about.....I definitely think that the song she sang was beautiful!

[Silva]

Veritas, that's Alizee and I'm pretty sure the song was "Moi... Lolita" cuz I also saw her on the world music awards. I really like her songs, you should check some of them out.

[Echoed]

Mm-hmm. That would be Alizйe. ^_^

~Echo.

Can anyone tell me about some good foreign heavy metal bands to check out? im in usa bands like ozzy,metallica ext

[Disengage]

Norway's finest!

[Charles]

Tonight, CMT (Country Music Television) will have a show about Bering Straight, a county/bluegrass group made up of Russian teenagers. I'm not all that impressed with thier music so far (good technical skills, but unimpressive compositions). I'll watch it more for Russia connection, and thier experience trying to break into the music business.

It is pretty funny to me to hear a souther drawl with a Russian accent. Even better was someone talking US urban hip-hop vocabulary (props out t' ma hommies dog, etc.) with heavy Dutch accent.

[YLuelniaa]

HAHA i know what your talkin about Charles, they also had a piece on them a while back..on mm I believe Dateline or something

[Eku1]

so, I guess, it's my first time to post not on a t.A.T.u. forum on this site ;)

I listen sometimes also such Russian groups like Virus, Ruki Vverh..., but according to many Russians their music is trash. Basically silly songs, which listen foreigeners and who can't understand the lyrics (like me lol) but we cannot argue about music taste, can we?

Other groups I like:
Schiller (Germany - my second favourite after t.A.T.u.)
ATB
Kai Tracid
Moby
Enya
Enigma
Mike Oldfield
etc.etc.

[coolasfcuk]

Yeah, lets get back to the topic here. I am not huge fan of the group I am about to link yout to, but they are from my country Bulgaria, and I like them. They were pretty big last year, I think they still are. Everybody here in the states thinks I am Russian when I speak bulgarian, ha ha, so maybe all you people that don't know russian might think it sounds like russian, but it is actually Bulgarian, which to me is really close to Russian (same alphabet, slavic language, yada yada... in fact, did you know that the cyrilic alphabet and russian for that matter, originated in bulgarian theritories, and the cyrilic alphabet was made by two brothers who were half greek half bulgarian, and then it traveled north and east and made it to Russia?- but that's off the topic) Anyways, here are couple links to mp3s of Karizma, that's the name of the group. And one link with their single cover. First song is called 'Kolko mi Lipsvash' translated to - 'How much I miss you' and the second one is called "Riskuvam da te Imam", translated to "I risk to have you", lol both sound bad in english but it bulgarian they are OK. Enjoy, let me know what you think.

Have you heard The Donnas-classic girl rock in the vein of AC/DC and The Ramones.
