bands/artists you like whose names start with...C
Self-explanatory, innit. Staightforward lists or with Youtube/Spotify links, whatever, etc.
Of the stuff recommended for B, i really liked Bibio's 'Ambivalence Avenue', though i'm not sure about his other stuff. Loved the Bill Callahan tracks i've heard to far, too. I had heard of him, but just never got round to listening. Ditto with Broken Social Scene, really, always one of those bands i suspected were good, but only ever got as far as one or two songs. Blind Willie Johnson's the dog's nads, as well. Thanks to all.

Coate - sound like American Football, from NZ. Well good.
City of Caterpillar - perfected long screamo post rocking brilliance on the s/t lp.
Crash of Rhinos - one of, if not the best modern emo band in the UK right now.
Comets on Fire - psych!
Cursed - ignore the copyists, these guys do it the best.
Converge - ace
Capt'n'jazz - to blame for all the shit twiddle-mo bands around now but were bostin.
Coalesce - incredible hardcore band.
Company Flow - at the forefront of all the backpacker hip hop nonsense. Incredible first LP.
Craw - well good Jesus Lizard/noise rock style stuff. Hydra Head reissued their last LP which is well worth tracking down.
Carcass - super grind or super melodic death metal. Take your pick and they excel at it.
Cave In - great last album. great band

I don't get the point of these threads...
Given enough responses your're just going to get the C list of artists off the allmusic.com bands list.
Genres yes, bands that sound like animals or bodily fluids, fine. But the alphabet? Have we got another 23 letters to go?!
never heard of allmusic.com
i've already found about fifteen new artists i like.
thanks for your input.
er, no problen, no offence meant, but all the "answers" are there...
just had a look.
not sure about it.
the main point of asking people on here was so that i'd have to wade through less shite.
