If you need new music

Alright, so last December I decided that I'd start making a list of all the nice songs/artists/albums/EPs/Mixtapes/etc. that I stumbled across in 2014.
I figured that, since I'm halfway done (well, a bit more than halfway since it's July), I'd share all the nice songs/artists/etc. I've come across so far!

Judas Priest's "Redeemer of Souls" kinda sucked. It's boring and sounds a bit like "Hail to the King" which is kinda sad for the metal gods...[5.5/10]

I dislike deadmau5's "while (1<2)" because it had way too much piano and randomness. It wasn't club music anymore, I think it's what ambient sounds like (never bothered to listen to ambient). But hey, let him do what he wants I guess. [4/10]

Linkin Park's "The Hunting Party" was pretty good, especially compared to their last two albums. I think of it as a mixture of all they've done. [8/10]

And that's all I care about this year so far.

[quote=audio]i expected this to be a thread about 2014 music and got really excited that i could finally talk new music with someone but lol nope

generously ignoring all the awful trash i say to you [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lQtoRFaLsA]yo[/url][url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOboa27SHDE]yo[/url][url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SoJ8s90NLc4]yo[/url][url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34LyiriE6eo]yo[/url]?[/quote]

A lot of the things on the list are new songs/albums! Perhaps I should've put a star next to them to separate new from old. Tears
As for the songs you linked:
1. I hate Usher, but that song was really good!
2. I liked this one a lot as well.
3. This song.... I love Iggy, but Ariana's voice annoys me. Tears
4. I like this one the best.

Thanks for the recommendations!
