The Velvet Underground & Nico (1967) more music like this

by The Velvet Underground

One would be hard pressed to name a rock album whose influence has been as broad and pervasive as The Velvet Underground and Nico. While it reportedly took over a decade for the album's sales to crack six figures, glam, punk, new wave, goth, noise, and nearly every other left-of-center rock movement owes an audible debt to this set. While The ...

Tales of the New West (1985) more music like this

by Beat Farmers

Hailing from San Diego, the Beat Farmers burst on the California music scene like a locomotive in the mid-1980s with amazing live shows. Their powerful combination of rock & roll, country, blues, and folk styles -- performed exquisitely tight -- was truly a wonder to behold.

An Introduction to the Velvet Underground (2001) more music like this

by The Velvet Underground

Wow, at the dawn of the 21st century does anyone really need An Introduction to the Velvet Underground? The answer is probably yes, but it's difficult to imagine. This is one of several VU compilations out there, and despite some obvious shortcomings, it's one of the better ones. At 16 tracks, it's a better deal than the 11-track 20th Century ...

The Pink Album...Plus (2001) more music like this

by The Pagans

The Pagans started playing punk rock before anyone was sure what it was (or what to call it), and up until the band's final collective breath, they played furious, into-the-wind rock & roll with a fury and snarling abandon that was a wonder to behold. In 1982, after the first edition of the band had fallen apart, Mike Hudson, the band's singer, ...

The String Quartet Tribute to the Velvet Underground + Nico (2003) more music like this

by Various Artists

Vitamin's The String Quartet Tribute to the Velvet Underground + Nico follows a formula similar to the label's numerous other releases in this niche genre, but it has the curious effect of rendering the Velvets' music in an even more decadent light. The musicians -- violinists, violists, and cellists, with finger cymbals and mandolin adding ...
