More Drum 'n Bass like this?
I've been a long time fan of certain kind of drum 'n bass even though I really haven't been able to find it much at all. IMO it's pretty standard drum 'n bass, but pretty much every time i go searching for more I find stuff that's not really what I'm interested in.
Maybe the best example would be this album.
The entire album is just brilliant IMO.
Only full track from the album I could find on YouTube was this.
Basically stuff that's hard and pounding and sort of industrial sounding maybe (I think these sound a bit industrial kinda). Nothing soft and fluffy or too laid-back and funky. Something that'll pound all bad feelings the fuck out of your mind. That's how this kinda of music makes me feel even if the music isn't even remotely positive or happy, but it makes me feel a lot better.
Recommendations old or new are welcomed as these tracks are pretty much all I have in this type of drum 'n bass. Vinyl, CD, download, all goes too.

Just wait for PvD's new album "Evolution". I think it comes out next month or sometime soon.

That's the title of his new album? Dam these trance jocks are even cheesy with their album titles. I bet there will be a nice close up picture of him looking serious for album art. Wooo!

going on 'tough sounding' and only knowing the marky/spy tune from there, I'm gonna put a few links up and let you decide if any of it fits what you're after, and can then probably elaborate.

Spor tune was alright. Not something I'd buy, but it was pretty close to the kind of stuff I like.
Break tune was alright too, but I wouldn't buy that either. The vocals kinda put me off, but I guess this was pretty close to the style I'm interested in too. Beat in this is kinda boring really. It's not very exciting.
Marcus Intalex & SPY tune wasn't hard enough but more of the kind of stuff I always seem to find when I'm looking for d'n'b. This kinda stuff doesn't interest me.
Also If you didn't notice, there's a link (YouTube or Junodownload) to each of the tunes I mentioned if you want a clearer picture of what I'm after.
I own the deadmau5 remix, and was thinking off the top of my head styles which are 'tough' like that is, when you mentioned without the 'trance' and was about to go live on the ukta radio so didn't have time to listen to your links before my set Break makes really tough beats, but it's hit & miss as to if you like what's with it for sure. Spor are good, check out Aztec for one of their big tracks, kinda like Noisia, but I'm not always a fan of Noisia. I'll have a listen to yours & see if I can find something that correlates with it, but it'll prob be tomorrow now with the radio on til late.

Alright, cool. Just thought you might have missed them.
I gotta check more of Spor and Break and also Aztec and Noisia. Thanks for the recommendations.

I think what you meant to ask for was the most generic drum n bass possible.
Maybe you'll like this? It's a few years old and has some nice melodies.
Yes, I'm sorry that I can't accurately describe what kind of d'n'b I want using words, especially as I don't know much at all about the whole genre. That's why I posted the links to YouTube and Junodownload.
I will specify though: I do not want any female vocals. I do not want cheesy shit like Pendulum. I do not want stuff with stupid happy melodies like the above link you posted. I do not want stuff that goes too "hard" (noisy) like the first link you posted. If it's starts to resemble some sort of hardcore, I will most likely not like it. The type of stuff I posted the samples on has the kind of sound I really like.
I do not know if the d'n'b I like is "the most generic drum n bass possible". I've heard that many times before but no one has been able to point out where I could find more of this generic d'n'b. Instead every before recommendation has been shit like Pendulum or the kind of stuff in your second link or some of that more laid-back d'n'b of which I cannot remember any examples at the moment.
Break makes really tough beats, but it's hit & miss as to if you like what's with it for sure. Spor are good, check out Aztec for one of their big tracks, kinda like Noisia, but I'm not always a fan of Noisia.
