Can anyone recommend me some non-cheesey but happy guitar music? Although my favourite band are the Smiths, it's winter and I need something uplifting. Been listening to a lot of electronic music, but feel the need for some guitar music. Yet I need it to raise my spirits. Recommendations? |

you could try Notwist's last album "golden neon" - not all of it is happy, but it does have an uplifting quality. it's a pretty summery album, if you will. they also use a lot of electronica in their music and not just as a gimmick, but as a real instrument. |

Purple Rain is def the best, then 1999, then sign of the times |

any Pixies album should do too, by the way. especially "come on pilgrim/surfer rosa". |

grandaddy are ok, the software slump is quite good. i prefer the kingsbury manx, same kind of stuff more chilled out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree with cornelius - point lp! that's a great record. there's so much other stuff i wouldn't even know where to begin... |

I love the smiths, the only reason I wish i could go back to the 80s is to see them play live. it's too bad morrissey and johnny marr split up on such bad terms... or maybe a reunion show might be a possibility :( |

His Name Is Alive - Mouth by Mouth. 5/5 |
||||||||
|
|

The Lucksmiths- Why that Doesn't Surprise Me Very bouncy and life affirming but in that bittersweet way. Man I love these guys, those guitars twang and jangle to perfection. Very fruity though. |

März - Wir sind hier Even the parts in German are gaggingly uplifting. Good album. Mercury Rev - The secret migration Yes a happy album by Mercury rev. Nothing complex or intricate, just jolly music. Almost feelgood. If you're lucky you can still pick up the beautifully packaged limited edition. |

Athlete's first album is very cheerful, I quite enjoy it. 40 Feet by Franz Ferdinand is good too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
some uplifting guitar songs I think are very good: ride - seagull ride - unfamiliar lush - sweetness and light other than that you could always try MAROON 5 or something... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

exactly mate. one of the best noisy-guitar-coming-in-the-right-moments album. and lots more than that. the latest full album is awesome too, it's hard to describe it in a few words....since i'm listening to it now for the first time. great work. |

I always recommend the same band in every thread but Loveless by My Bloody Valentine is very uplifitng and brilliant. Also I find good old rock n roll puts me in a good mood. Theres a pretty cool compilation called Rock & Roll 1 compiled by the rough trade guys which is great, proper awesome stuff from the 60s onwards, Iggy to the mighty Fall, MC5 Pixes Rocket from the Crypt Joe Mascis... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i really prefer Isn't Anything....i don't know it if it's better than Loveless, cause i got to know the former a long time ago and it's kinda sentimental thing.....but....MBValentine are one of the best bands ever anyways. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yep they are one of the best, and its not an exaggeration. Which is amazing considering they only had 2 'proper' albums There's a couple o tracks on Isnt Anything that are a quite sad though, wheras Loveless seems to be more optomistic. They did so much stuff post-Loveless and you know it would blow everything away but god knows when we'll hear it |
