Reply to Which greatest hits/compilation albums do you consider proper albums in their own right? by my_one_and_lonely

Bob Marley’s legend is probably the best example of this (although when I saw it listed in some compilation of greatest Albums of all time I cringed as if us not an album per as).

However, any fan of legend should use i in t as a spring board to his true catalog which is absolutely amazing and the deep cuts are as powerful as the hits.

I saw black midi so I thought it could be worth asking -- my whole life I only listened to hiphop, and recently I came across black midi, and then Black Country, New road and those two bands absolutely changed my life.

But I've been struggling to find similar music, I don't know anything about rock and its subgenres so every time I tried finding similar stuff (by typing "rock" in Spotify lol) I obviously failed miserably.

Do you, by any chance, have some suggestions or recommendations, either for bands that are similar or perhaps telling me how can I go about finding music in the same sub genre? Thank you!

Yeah, Tool sold tickets in London for £125 a seat. Since then I am committed to local venues only.

Older audiences only listen to older bands and younger audiences dont want rock....yet....;-)

Rock music is taking a nap these days. Nobody wants to grow up to be a rock star anymore. :( I'm coming to the conclusion that rock may be on the way out. A 70 year fad that has about run it's course. Tool and Pucifer and the only recent talent I care for.

The blues music scene is doing good. Bad times tends to breed good blues.
