So, I know we have a music sub-forums, but like most sub-forums, they never seem to get much attention. With that said, I thought it would be nifty idea to start one here and just have everyone post music. You can post anything that you like that is music related. Show us bands that you think are underrated and need attention(you hipster douche :P). Show us music that get's you through the day when you are down. Show us music that helps you deal with being trans. Show us music that makes you laugh, that makes you cry, that make you live.

I want to start this with a woman who is dealing with transition, Keith Mina Caputo. A good friend just turned my onto her, and I think this video by her really would be a good way to start things:


If you haven't already figured out, The Dresden Dolls are one of my favorite groups(duets, whatev). Amanda Palmer is amazing song writer, and when I get down about being trans and dealing with all the crap that comes with it, her stuff seems to help me get through the rough patches. This song in particular is quite poignant:

And for those who have never listened to The Dresden Dolls, I think this song about sums them up:


And if you liked them, then you will love this betch!

Emilie Autumn - Liar

I will add more bits later in the thread. I want to put up collections of favorite bands  I like by genre, but for now, I just want to share some artists that I think need more attention that are really effin good. So, in no order whatsoever, enjoy:




Primus - Mr. Krinkle









VNV Nation- Honour 2003 (Studio)



And some obscure Nirvana:


So, start postin, foos!

Oh cmon, you put up King Missile but not this song?


Edit: Also, why am I an idiot and can't seem to figure out  how to get the actual video to show up instead of the link? I am seriously failing atm.

This song has nothing to do with trans issues; Brian Wilson probably doesn't even know what transsexuals are.

BUT THE SONG KICKS MAJOR ASS.

You just paste the main link, no url tags or anything, and make sure it's a youtube one and not a youto.be one  :)

Example with a song my bf found the other day and I thought was really pretty:



Edit: okay it's messing up for me too. Weird, 'cause it works fine in the preview.
