Curious Cat Question
So I have a DSL connection at home.
And a friend of mine, Rhoch, just installed BitTorrent in my computer.
Given that one can download whole albums rather than songs from Torrent, this cat is wondering: what one band would you recommend?

I need more information about your tastes in music in order to do so, because I can cite several essential albums. You may or may not think in terms of genre: danceable, heavy, guitar-based, electronic, songwriting, experimentation, etc.
Good points, but I'll just shoot sme reccos anyway:
Nevermore
Acid Bath
Brooklyn Funk Essentials
Freak Kitchen
bitta variety there for you...
try indie: the darkeness, beck, deathcab for cutie, armor for sleep, pinback, flaming lips, imogen head, sugarcult and lots... ;)
i agree with mayang regarding imogen heap.. she transcends genres actually.. or you might try the garden state soundtrack, nice place to start :)..
Here's a random hodgepodge of ten to start you off, banzai.
Architecture In Helsinki
- - - kidpop for adults
Can - - -for classic weird
Dredg - - -Sorta like Incubus, if they were any good
Ibrahim Ferrer - - - balm
Ladytron - - -synthpop played by shiny beauties, Miya Arroyo is yummy
Pixies - - -for classic rock
Supercar - - - J-pop gone electro, a happy pill and a half
Sonic Youth - - - for classic rock, Pt.II. Murray St. and A Thousand Leaves are indispensable
Television - - -particularly Marquee Moon. Guitarporn.
Tom Waits - - -our generation's Dylan, except wilder and weirder
Hope some of these float your boat.
and some other more: skunk anansie, amon tobin, the decemberists, say hi to your mom, alex gopher, placebo, morcheeba, cibo matto. want some more?! LoL ;)
