I'm not a huge fan of house (trip-hop is the closest I get to stuff I really love), but I was listening to Primal Scream the other day, and it wasn't bad.
It really depends what Primal Scream album you've been listening to as to whether it was house music or not. Their first two albums,
Sonic Flower Groove and
Primal Scream, were rock albums. Their mainstream breakthrough album
Screamadelica could be considered house music, but the follow-up
Give Out But Don't Give Up was a fairly straight-up stoner rock album again. Then came
Vanishing Point, which ranged from pop to ambient and from house to acid rock. That latter genre (acid rock) is what defined their next two albums,
Exterminator or
XTRMNTR and
Evil Heat, although Primal Scream again goes back and forth between a multitude of genres on these albums. From acid rock to big beats and from techno to acid dub. On even later albums they would once again return to more standard rock music.
So whether or not Primal Scream makes house music depends
a lot on what album you listen to.
I don't really listen to
house, but I definitely do listen to
dance in general. My favorites are Abakus, Alex Gopher, Amon Tobin, Aphex Twin, Bance De Gaia, Boards Of Canada, Biosphere, Depeche Mode, DJ Shadow, Junior Boys, Fires Of Ork, The Knife, Fever Ray, Four Tet, Laurent Garnier, LCD Soundsystem, Lindstrøm, M83, Massive Attack, Moloko, Orb, Röyksopp, Shpongle, System 7, Trentemøller and Underworld.
