Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Lindemann - Blut (Live in Moscow) #168

June 24, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.18 MB

Associated Playlist:   https://playlist.shellshockedradio.com/link/griyke ​ https://linktr.ee/megalmodas​   Yes, I know I'm a bit late to the "Party". Lindemann has been disbanded in this form at least and Peter Tätgren is touring with Hypocrisy and Pain and Till Lindemann is ... well ... "Till Lindemann" now, besides his little "side project" Rammstein ;)  Anyway, this is not such a flashy song, not poppy metal as usual, more somber, slowly pulling you into its darkness.  A bit Gothic ...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - The Breeders - Cannonball #167

Associated Playlist:   https://playlist.shellshockedradio.com/link/griyke   https://linktr.ee/megalmodas​   The Breeders! Yeah! Just learned that this is a Gay Slang Term for heterosexuals, quite funny and poignant.  This song, or at least parts of it, was once the "jingle" for MTV or a show on MTV, as I have heard it quite often in my past, showing my age I guess ...  But it is still a nice little alternative stomper in the likes of the Pixies and Frank Black.  So for all you post MTV ...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult - A Daisy Chain for Satan #292

May 31, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.75 MB

Let me apologize upfront, I love these pioneers of sampling and industrial music.  There no F%$§'s given attitude, their playful attitude, they are and were not afraid to tackle sensitive themes as it was still problematic in the 80's. Today (2022) I see a move to overly "sanitize" our lives again, where you get crucified for a stupid Twitter Post you did 5 years ago as you did not know better ...  So My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult is a soothing bit of fresh air from the past, where art...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Buzz Kull - Into The Void #154

May 30, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.12 MB

Hey Guys,   today I recommend Buzz Kull's "Into The Void" to you. Cold Wave, Dark Wave, Electro, Minimal Synth ... whatever, just a great stomper for the dance floor.  The Video itself is not a big "looker" ( https://youtu.be/OJm2lSxXrwY ) but this recommendation is about the music of course, which is great!  So please check out this great and accomplished artist, as he has many more songs which are very recommendable.  Also, if you wanna know more about the Person behind "Buzz Kull", ch...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - The Cure - A Forest #153

May 29, 2022 16:00 - 2 minutes - 2.14 MB

Hey Guys,   in a way I feel a bit ridiculous  here to recommend this song as I truly hope to "preach to the choir" here and you all know who  @The Cure  are and at least are slightly familiar with their work.  They have been around "forever" and even though they have re-invented themselves and their sounds a couple of times, they have never waned from the public eye, at least in my "bubble". So, even though if I'm quite certain that you will know them, here I recommend the Cure's "A Forest" ...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - David Bowie ft. The Pet Shop Boys - Hallo Spaceboy Pop Glory #291

May 28, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.63 MB

Yeah! This is Pop Glory Galore!   @David Bowie  and  @Pet Shop Boys  united together to make a great Pop Song ending in an even greater Crescendo?  How can you not love that?  I'm not a huge Bowie Fan, I mean, I really admire the artistic achievements, and some of his songs are really good, but I was more taken by the overall artistic figure of Bowie, not so much his music.  But this song I really like! That he did it together with the also great Pet Shop Boys is a welcomed Bonus.  Chec...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Alphaville - Sounds like a Melody #152

May 27, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.71 MB

Hey Guys,   we need to talk about Alphaville! I wanted to get to them much earlier in my Recommendations series, as I have a couple of songs I want to recommend of them.  And yes ... "the one" everyone know will be among them, but lets start with the great Pop Anthem "Sounds like a Melody".   Marian Gold, the singer, is still active to this day, so there is hope of more music!  I also know that I was at a very formative and impressionable state as I've heard them for the first time, so, ...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - MajorVoice - Sunbed in the Rain - a classical trained voice #290

May 26, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 1.94 MB

​ @MajorVoice  was, once again such a lucky find for me.  He has a classical trained voice which really elevates all the Pop Rock Songs he sings. Judging from his video for "Sunbed in the Rain" he also has a good sense of humor and does not take himself to seriously.  Anyway, please check out this nice tune with the truly great voice!   https://youtu.be/iM1rdIiVaFA    https://open.spotify.com/track/34VKYahrnNQTxvNQrX6uId?si=a6ee7b4319e24780   If you rather want to listen to my Talks as ...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - ALKONOST - Папоротник #151

May 25, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.2 MB

Hell Yeah!   I like this song and this particular Folk Metal Style so well realized by  @Alkonost  from "Mother Russia".  Growing up behind the "Iron Curtain" (in the Russian Zone) I had some trouble with the government enforced "love" to my Russian brethren, but this has long passed now and was just a normal youthful rebellion.  Now I really admire this style of music and have quite some sympathy for "Mother Russia", but this is a different story ...  All I can say is that you definitel...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Sturm Café - Fernes Land German Pop Music in Swedish Quality :) #289

May 24, 2022 04:00 - 1 minute - 1.36 MB

Sturm Cafe is one of these rare finds which I love to share with you. It is a Swedish electronic Pop Band who sing in German which I think is adorable.  Their Dark Pop fits perfectly in my Playlist, check out their fun song here:   https://youtu.be/4kCUUKhfx6k   https://open.spotify.com/track/6PQ0dOlGeQFXy5wmnBPRbY?si=1e9610d601ca49ea   and of course, here it is in my playlist:   https://playlist.shellshockedradio.com/link/griyke   If you rather want to listen to my Talks as a Podcast,...

May 23, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.72 MB

Hey Guys,   as you might know, I know nothing, and the more I get to know the greater the ocean of not knowing gets.  I had this song from  @bitingelbows  for a while on my radar and really like it, hence my recommendation of course.   But now, with a short search I see that these guys are a bigger number, from Russia and the singer / guitar player is even a successful movie maker ...   Well, this does not really concern us so much today, as we are here for the music, right?  In the vain...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Ships in the Night - Lost Times #149

May 22, 2022 16:00 - 2 minutes - 2.1 MB

Hey Guys,   I think this one was one of the rarer times when the  @Spotify  algorithm really presented me with a song I instantly fell in love with.   @Ships In The Night  is just a great artist and really have a knack for beautiful melodies and well crafted songs.  I had the pleasure to get to know her a bit better in my Shellshocked Radio Talk Show, which you can find here:   https://youtu.be/gdzEM-zv7v4   If you wanna get to know her a bit better.  Here now the song I highly recomme...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Ace of Base - All That She Wants - Minimalist Swedish Dark Pop #288

May 21, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.61 MB

​ @Ace of Base  founded just a few years before the wall crumbled down (the iron curtain ...), so they hit me right at my formative teenage time. This song is very minimalist & bare bones, and exudes a bit of darkness to which I'm clearly drawn ;) as you should know by now.  So check out this good old, now aptly called "classic" here:   https://youtu.be/d73tiBBzvFM   https://open.spotify.com/track/6kWJvPfC4DgUpRsXKNa9z9?si=7e03b0fbd86141f2   and of course, here it is in my playlist:   h...

May 20, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.24 MB

Hey Guys,   today just a quick shout out to a band from my area (they are from Weimar, a town close to where I live ...).   @DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER  have been around for a long time and created their very distinctive style and I applaud them for that, even though it is not always my cup of tea.  I have talked a few years ago with their bass player (look if you can find the old podcast ... ;) and have worked with one of their former band mates on my side project "HerrMann"    https://...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood - F&%k all constraints & boundaries #287

May 19, 2022 04:00 - 3 minutes - 2.79 MB

Yeah!  @Gorillaz  they do not care about boundaries at all and just do what they love and feel like.  This is how music should be!  Have fun and make what makes you feel good & what you like.  Do not run after any trends ... your too late anyway and will be just a copy of a copy of a copy ...  Make your own stuff and love it!  This is the vibes I get from this fun song.   Kinda an art collective "hiding" behind some comic characters.  You just have to love and admire that.  Music wis...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - O.Children - Ruins #147

May 18, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.01 MB

Hey Guys,   the singer of the  @O. Children  is called "Tobias" as well and I even had some slight contact with him on  @Instagram  (look for Tobias the King ;) and he seems like a cool Dude and even liked one of my songs.  Anyway, here I give you "Ruins" an Oldy but Goldy, very well aged and very often in my playlist rotation, and now also in my Recommendation Radio show. Let's see, maybe I even get Tobias Okandi to talk with me on my Shellshocked Radio Talk Show, we'll see ...   https:/...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Suede - So Young - the good kind of Brit Pop before Oasis F&%$ed up everything #286

May 17, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.48 MB

Yeah, this is the good kind of Brit Pop Rock before  @Oasis  ruined all the good music coming from the Island for a while ... don't get me started on the Gallaghers ... not worth mentioning ...  Anyway,  @Suede HQ  are real artists, with a falsetto able singer, stylish, good looking, the full package!  They are still around to this day, so please check out their "older" hit "So Young":   https://youtu.be/twoO3xYRsz0   https://open.spotify.com/track/5ZajGVoBAlSX9tJl3phrTg?si=cc33194a16a64...

May 16, 2022 04:00 - 6 minutes - 5.78 MB

Hey Guys,   today I have three great bands "rolled" in one single video recommendation. First of the great  @Nina HagenFan  the "Mother of Punk" which hails, like me, from East Germany / the GDR. She is just such a crazy whirlwind, making everything she appears on and in so much better (there will be more with her in the Future ...  @OOMPH!  and Freaky Fuckin Weirdos ... ;)  Then you have the great  @Apocalyptica  which are just a delight and last and by no means least you have the great  ...

So, hopefully you are not easily offended by just words, as the band name of this musical formation is Slut.  I always think it is funny that people can get so easily offended by just words.  I lived for a while in Montreal / Quebec / Canada, where some Christian Iconographic words were considered swear words.  "Hostie"  (Altar Bread), or "Tabernacle" for example, as these words mean in my (German) Language exactly what they describe, it was very funny for me that they were considered ver...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - The Cult - She Sells Sanctuary - Post Punk, Proto Goth Rock #285

May 14, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.3 MB

The Cult, with their Milestone "She Sells Sanctuary" have laid the groundwork of many post punk / gothic rock Bands, maybe not so much of dressing style, even though  @Fields of the Nephilim  seem to have taken a few pointers from them ;)  But with their bristling, flashy but still cool & cold delivery, many cookie cutter wannabees followed in their footsteps.  Not the greatest song in the world, is it still worthy of a spot in my recommendation list, as it is a kinda timeless classic song...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Gnarls Barkley - Crazy #144

May 13, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.64 MB

Yes, yes, yes ... this is NOT Darkwave, Gothic Rock or Industrial Metal, BUT it is such a great "old School" sounding song.  Reminiscing the  @The Beatles  or other 70's like the  @The Doors  or  @The Rolling Stones .  It is just a very well made and pleasant song to listen to.  So even though it is very far out of my usual oeuvre, I can highly recommend this modern classic:   https://youtu.be/-N4jf6rtyuw   https://open.spotify.com/track/1vxw6aYJls2oq3gW0DujAo?si=380c024ee8284fba   and...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Mesh - Kill Your Darlings - Deep thoughts in Pop from Bristol #284

May 12, 2022 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.76 MB

Yeah! Mesh!  They are quite well known in Germany and Scandinavia ... the prophet does mean sh&%$t in its own country, eh?  I have to confess though, that I got to know them as I was living in Canada, in the lovely Montreal. Introduced by my even lovelier "Quebecois"  Girlfriend back then ... well, good times and fond memories ... ;)  Anyway, I always admired their social commentary in their lyrics, not the usual pop butterflies and rainbows bullsh&%t, but deep ideas and themes, I really ...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - UNZUCHT - Engel der Vernichtung #143

May 11, 2022 04:00 - 1 minute - 1.48 MB

Hey Guys,   another German Band today  @unzuchtofficial  refreshingly not  @Rammstein Official  they make their own brand of poppy, rock and sometimes even metal tunes.  Very enjoyable and around for quite some time already.  So my recommendation of today is their song: "Engel der Vernichtung" (Angel of Destruction / Annihilation)    https://youtu.be/6QtZ-qskPG0   https://open.spotify.com/track/1xE4ohzaA0x4BPlpFJMADl?si=8f1daa6e733d41ff   and, of course, here it is in my playlist:   h...

Well, the  @PixiesOfficial  ... I guess no introduction is needed for this Alternative, Indie, Pop Rock Gem which is with us since 1986.  I already covered their most famous song "Where is my mind" here in my recommendation Playlist:    https://youtu.be/TitL4wnVVc8   but "Velouria" is nothing to hide as well. Quirky, weird Pop Rock at its finest!  Check out this Gem here:   https://youtu.be/nc0Mv4Iyxvc   https://open.spotify.com/track/0lBO2VOhlNNx879Fjd9XY3?si=3c8af2903b494951   and o...
