My friend made me listen "Zombie" by The Cranberries and they sound pretty good! What would you recommend by them?

The first album is the best one (Everybody Else is Doing it...)

The second album is good too (No Need to Argue), although there's some tracks on that one I don't care for (Zombie included, sorry).

Anything from The Cranberries is good, just good all-round songs. I've always loved Dolores's voice.
Go to youtube and watch all you can.

Linger is a very nice song, try and get the MTV Unplugged version.

The Cranberries are one of those bands that can pull off both soft and hard rock songs fairly well. I would recommend the first two albums. Some of my favorite songs include "Yeats' Grave," "Salvation," "Ode to My Family," and "Promises." "Zombie" is usually one of the first songs that I like to teach kids on bass.

Dolores' voice is great. She can manage to throw in some very "untraditional" singing (for modern rock music, anyway) like yodels and still manage to make it fit the song.
