Starflyer 59 - Similar Artists

[Zelönka 22]

SF59 is irreplaceable. But what artists share similarities with Starflyer 59?

I'll start.

Band name: lenno
Description: An indie Japanese Starflyer.
Similarity: Has the sound of The Fashion Focus and some of Gold & Americana.
Link: www.myspace.com/lennojp


I'd like to hear some bands with the more heavier Starflyer guitars like in the song "Too Much Fun" or on Gold or Americana.

Wow, that's a lot of distortion!
See, if McCain would have used your "Maverick" song, he would surely win. But nope..

[Spirit Flyer]

In the early days similar artists were: Morella's Forest, My Bloody Valentine, Velour 100, Prayer Chain
In the Brit Pop era: The Smiths, The Cure, New Order, Depeche Mode, the Beatles
Portuguese Blues: Black Rebel Motorcycle
More recent sound: Pink Floyd (Old)

These are the ones that come to mind. I'm sure there are more similar in certain songs such as Radiohead, Coldplay and Cool Hand Luke. Another way to find other bands is to look on Pandora or Last.Fm.

Thanks. Thank God McCain didn`t use Maverick.
By the way, we released an ep in 2008. You can download it for free in our net label, Sinewave: www.sinewave.com.br. There are a lot of brazilian noise bands and post-rock stuffs there. All available for free downloads.
