Thread: Tell Me Your Favorite Trip Hop Band

I've been getting into this genre a little bit, but don't know a lot of the better artists. I like Thievery Corporation, but they're not fully into this genre. They do a lot more dub than trip hop. Opinions?

I've been told the Beta Band is 'trip-hop'. The Three Eps is their best.

I don't even know what trip hop is though

Mentioned it in irc. 'Bonobo'. Best albums are 'Dial M for Monkey', 'Solid Steel - It Came From The Sea', but quite honestly I think 'Days To Come' wipes the floor woth the other albums, it's really quite beautiful. Here's a nice review:

I need some more trip hop artists too so, whoever's got any, cough 'em up.

And check out DJ Shadow, Artelis.

I luff "Sneaker Pimps". Very awesome.
OH, and "Sky Cries Mary"...but would you consider them trip-hop? Eh...
