Song Recommendations

[xxatlowxx]

Hey all . . . my friend James asked me to burn a CD, I'm not sure what songs to put on it though. I've tried time and time again and failed at getting him to like muse, so I won't bother putting any on the CD.

He likes techno, screamo, heavy rock, metalcore, alterative, and acoustic music.
Anyone have any recommendations of good songs of those genres? He likes all of the heavy bands I like, and he wants new music.
Nothing that's Muse, or Muse-sounding.
The CD I'm using is 80 minutes, so about 20 songs or less. I need songs by wednesday. thanks :happy:

or if it's not "Screamo" it's certianly some form of -core band. :erm:

LOL crab core :LOL:

LOL crab core :LOL:

I can't believe that's a serious suggestion. :LOL:

I won't recommend artists but I will say don't fill up the entire CD. You might think that's wasting space, but then again, so are a lot of albums. There's a reason why in most cases - to not give the listener too much music. If I was given a twenty-song mixtape, I would struggle to remember every song. Just think of it as creating an album that flows well instead of filling up space.

Then again, he might be a lost cause because of his Attack Attack adoration.
