Recommended Bands

[Chris]

Recommend bands to everyone else :)... jus' an idea :P

Anyways, I reccomend The Arcade Fire to everyone, they're one of the most amazing bands ever. Their live performances are amazing and ... well they're great.

You should all listen to Rebellion (Lies)!

NOW!

I Command you!

All!

[Razorblade Kiss]

I haven't listened t the whole album yet. I've only heard Neighborhood#1 and Rebellion. They're a great band! I band everyone should listen to is Placebo. They're big in the Uk..well atleast used to be big.

[Auron-X]

Grinspoon, great band. Many of you might haven not heard of it, cause it's an Australian band, and mostly base themselves around here. One of my favourites, personally.
I'm guessin' we recommend more so of "newer" bands and ones that might not be so famous worldwide? Cause yeah, that's what thought the case is/was.

[keiskay]

creeley estates you probaly wont find since there not that popular but there a pretty good emo band.

[Chris]

I haven't listened t the whole album yet. I've only heard Neighborhood#1 and Rebellion. They're a great band! I band everyone should listen to is Placebo. They're big in the Uk..well atleast used to be big.

Yeah Placebo are big, I think they've quietened down now since they haven't released a new CD in a while...

[Bizzaro]

I reccomend the band Firewind. They make excellent music.

[Sixthcrusifix]

If you're into wierd shizit their your band!

[..::AJ::..]

Trivium, from tampa bay florida....they're massive in england

bloc party, james blunt, blur, interpol and also the arcade fire.....what a band!

*sings* and the power's out.

and sir matthew bellamy's muse!!!!

GO muse!!!!

you rocked in concert, and i caught your pick....ha ha!

[Chris]

Lancer... I'm loving your taste in music!

I'm seeing Bloc Party at Leeds and in London!
James Blunt rocks - You're Beautiful! :D
Blur, everyone must like them!
Interpol... goddamn they rock
ARCADE FIRE!!! :D:D

and MUSE... YOU SAW MUSE?!?!
I will kill you and take your brain and extract the memory if you did ... O_o

I wanna go see Muse...

Oh, and everyone, check out JJ72!!

[Depu Techiikue]

What would you say would be the best songs from Arcade Fire to check out? :)

Also, I'm sure everyone's heard songs from Disturbed, great band. A great band is Nightwish. A great artist I would reccomend is Immortal Technique. Pretty much any song would be good from him, he's a very political rapper and touches basis on a lot of controversial events, beliefs, teachings, scriptures, etc.

[Bizzaro]

I agree with Lancer Trivium is a very great band. Very talented guitarists for such young musicians. I aslo reccomend Amon Amarth.

[Deknor]

I personally recommend Lamb of God, In Flames, Trivium...well...I'd keep going...but I'm too lazy to type a "gazillion" bands.

[Bizzaro]

Lol, In flames are good. Lamb of God is to trendy for my liking.

[Brindley]

What's the best In Flames album? I have Colony and was thinking about getting another one, but I wouldn't know which to get..

Oh, and Embody the Invisible (think that's what it's called, the first track on the album) has the catchiest riff ever!

[Deknor]

Bleh. I liked Lamb of God before they became trendy. Sonata Arctica...:) Devil Driver, Strapping Young Lad, A life Once Lost...

[Sixthcrusifix]

I reallt like the Bravery, Army of Lovers, Manson, and if you really want to get excited Garbage and Placebo. :D

[..::AJ::..]

MUSE... YOU SAW MUSE?!?!
I will kill you and take your brain and extract the memory if you did ... O_o

I wanna go see Muse...

yeah i did, and caught matty's pick, a nice .71m, yellow jim dunlop...if your up for it next eyar, i'll take you to see them in london

are your happy now? :D

and i'm seeing bloc,james blunt, and saw interpol at oxygen. need to see the arcade fire though.

[Chris]

*Eye twitches madly*
You lucky... li... grr

Mmm Muse in London... :D

Anywhos - I'm seeing Bloc Party in London on October 28th...
Arcade Fire are at Leeds festival :D

[..::AJ::..]

[Chris]

I am going :p
Got my weekend ticket sitting infront of me.

I'll probably be hanging around a weird collection of people, ranging from a big guy with blond hair, to a short guy with really curly hair, to a really tall guy who's basically an indie rocker...

or all three...

so many of my friends are going... apart from HENDER AND KAYLEIGH AND KATIE. GAH. NEXT YEAR OKAY?!

[..::AJ::..]

well, i hope to see you, moshing, while i climb on stage, and simply say a few words, on how i feel about you, not having the pleasure of catching matty's pick

i apologize for the bragging..(i like to annoy chris'....it's my thing)

[Chris]

*Face turns red / green ... anger / envy*

Well I... I ... uh ...... I .... *tries to think of a claim to fame*

... shit!

[..::AJ::..]

*shakes chris's hand* well that's enough for one, for me to PICK on you!

oh mercy, my god...this is so funny.

i'll send one to you, if it's an important persons one, like kele, from bloc or paulk form interpol, or the dude from jim root from slipknot at next years download festival!

[Chris]

*doesn't want the slipknot one*

Lancer, competition for you. Lets see who catches the most plecs / drumsticks at leeds! :D

[..::AJ::..]

you're on......i gurantee i'll get 1 drumstiock and three plecs.....look for me, i'd have blue hair with pink streaks.

[Sixthcrusifix]

No, I'v eheard of VAC but I've never listened to either of them.

[Bizzaro]

You should check them out if you like Industrial Metal... Both are very good bands.

[Sixthcrusifix]

Oh cool. I will definitly look fer em. :D

[Bizzaro]

Awesome, Velvet Acid Christ is great! Collide is a little more Mellow... but I love mellow music too... But I think you shall enjoy them.

[Chris]

Dandy Warhols people, listen to them!

[Bizzaro]

What kind of music are they?

[Chris]

Alt / rock

EVERYONE has heard 'Bohemian Like You' even if you don't know the title. It's the only song they're REALLY famous for...

[Bizzaro]

Ah, I will check them out.

[Sixthcrusifix]

69 Eyes, Velvet Eden and OOHH! Malice Mizer

[Bizzaro]

69 eyes are good. :D

Jag Panzer, Deathspell Omega, and Bloodbath

[TriggerHappi:D]

Hot Hot Heat is awesome! Look them up and listen to "middle of nowhere.

[Chris]

Hot Hot Heat... mmmmm :) Seeing them at Leeds :D


Jack Johnson!!! He's like... chilled out... and amazing.


I got all 3 of his albums for £25 yesterday whilst tempting Phil with his chip and pin... and Elaine kept meeting friends there... and DINGHY! DINGHY! you know you want it...

[Sixthcrusifix]

HOLE (Yes courtney love was a crazy bitch but I lik eher music)

[Chris]

Nine Black Alps, they're funky :D

[Dale Anthony]

Don't know if anyone has mentioned The Wildhearts. They're Hard Rock, which is pretty much my favourite genre. People here also need to listen to Erasure. They're more poppy than anything but not extremely pop, otherwise more people would have known them...turns out it's mostly just me who listens to them though :D.

[Chris]

For those wondering bout Nine Black Alps..

http://www.mind-fire.co.uk/nbalive.swf

video (c) me and my brother :P

[Lei]

Malice mizer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG! Right, I LOVE them so f*cking much. Their MV "Illuminati" (sp) is so amazing. <3

The wildhearts? I've heard of them, don't like them. A girl I know knows the drummer.

And Jack Johnson is amazing!!

I like Johnny Rzeznik's hair, its long (long hair and guys = good) it's like mine only more man-ish and hotter =P No wait!! It's really NOT.

[Dale Anthony]

I like Johnny Rzeznik's hair, its long (long hair and guys = good) it's like mine only more man-ish and hotter =P No wait!! It's really NOT.

Ha ha. So nothing like your hair then? :P lol. One more band off the top of my head because I really can't be bothered to think much lol. Thin Lizzy. They are good and I like them :D.

Maybe even...that Blue Man Group. They released a cool song with some guy called...Gavin something. Well, to what I remember it sounded alright.

[Chris]

PLACEBO!

Everyone has to like them!

[Grace Saunders]

Tears For Fears are grand. Get their second album or else. ;)

[Sixthcrusifix]

Tears For Fears are grand. Get their second album or else. ;)
Ah that they are


DOn't forget to lookup:

Depeche Mode (Gotta love "Everything counts in large amounts")

The Thomson Twins (You can't get more stereo-typical 80's than them)

Camoflauge (Spelling? I love the song, "Love is a Shield")

SHREIKBACK! - I love the Gothic 80's.

[Dale Anthony]

Marillion

Actually no...there's only one song by them any good.

[keiskay]

full devil jacket good hard rock band they are not really poupular though.

[Dale Anthony]

If not yet mentioned, 3 Doors Down. They're reasonably good.

[Alice]

I recommend The Beatles. I know, there really a 1960s band but there one of the best that were ever alive! Their music should be remembered from years to come.

[Dale Anthony]

I dunno if I've said Erasure yet, but yes. Erasure. Two members and good.

[Chris]

ROYKSOPP!

You ALL gotta listen to Eple or So Easy, if you don't know the songs when you hear them, then WHERE have you been the past few years?!

These guys ROCK. Go listen. Now.

[Belethdolien]

Lately I've been listening a lot to Blue October. They're not very knows, but the lead singer is just amazing. Also I have to mention my favorite band, Muse.

[Dale Anthony]

Dunno who Blue October are, but you're definitely welcome here if you're a fan of Muse :D.

[BleedAlone]

Dry Cell!! They are one of the greatest bands every an no ones knows because Warner dropped them. They're really awesome.

[Hideto]

Reuben
X Japan
hide
L'arc en ciel
Placebo
Kudasai
Bullet for my valentine

[Chris]

Did I see a sly "Kudasai" in there?

I hear they rock... And have a DAMN sexy bassist... :D
Mind you that guitarist ain't half bad either ;)

[Dale Anthony]

Well, seeing as I'm currently trying out my own version of one of their songs, I greatly recommend 80's Rock Greats, Toto!

Alot of people should at least be familiar with their songs "Rosanna", "Africa" and "Hold The Line".

You might not recognise the names but they'll sound familiar when you hear them surely! :D

[Bizzaro]

I reccomend the band nonity. For those of you with Myspace you should check them ou. www.myspace.com/nonity

[Tharrick]

I personally recommend Lamb of God, In Flames, Trivium...well...I'd keep going...but I'm too lazy to type a "gazillion" bands.



Well... guess what the guitarist of In Flames has done...

He's only joined the Nottingham Trent University's Rock Society
*proudly wears NTU Rocksoc t-shirt*

[Bizzaro]

In Flmaes is an awesome band, However I dont like they direction their newest CD went.

[Grace Saunders]

Depeche Mode are still around.

[TriggerHappi:D]

Depeche Mode? Eh, not my type of music.

Check out The Effects, everyone! I strongly recommend them! They kinda' remind me of Muse...Lemme' see if I can put up a link before I do. Be right back!

Allright, here they are! The guys rock so bad! Check them out before I hurt you!
http://www.purevolume.com/theeffects

[Dagger]

I recommend Evanescence.(I'm an Evanescence fangirl,please ignore me :D) If you're not into rock music,then I don't recommend them.

[Chris]

Sigur Ros for all!

Three Days Grace
Kaiser Cheifs
The Killers
Killer
Black eyed peas

[TheHackMan]

Rammstein

Staind
Metallica
3 Doors Down
In Flames

[Razorblade Kiss]

I just got into this band but one band I really reccommend is:
Circa Survive
The lead singer has this angelic voice, and the instrumentals are amazing. This band is fronted by the Ex-Saosin lead siner, Anthony Green.

[Auron-X]

Did I see a sly "Kudasai" in there?

I hear they rock... And have a DAMN sexy bassist... :D
Mind you that guitarist ain't half bad either ;)
Nah, I heard they suck lol. ESPECIALLY the bassist, apparently he's the worst of them all! :P And as for the topic, ehhhrrrrmmmm...... If you don't listen to Guns N' Roses already, then you have a problem and MUST listen to them NOW. And yeah some other bands which I think are good, xD. I dunno if I said this already, but Grinspoon is a good one, won't hear of them much since they're Australian. And if your a rap fan, try Scribe.

[Müninn]

Opeth
Amon Amarth
Cannibal Corpse
the older In Flames
40 Grit
Black Dahlia Murder

Really great stuff though.

[Halfmetal]

Coldplay
Kaiser Chiefs

Oasis

[Miley-Winters]

I recommenate

- Paramore (Really great Songs!)
- Breaking Benjamin (WTF?! THEY'RE AWESOME XD)

[Tharrick]

Miley - having looked at your favourite bands in your intro thread, I reckon you might like Lacuna Coil. Think Evanescence, only much, much better. And if you like relatively heavy stuff with clean female vocals, Epica is also a good band to check out.

[..::AJ::..]

Good call from tharrick there ^_^

and go munbuns for some ace bands there! Especially arch enemy and opeth...such fine bands live :)

i'm into tech metal and mathcore atm, so if anyone likes that stuff, try out:

Meshuggah
Dillinger escape plan
Protest the hero
SikTh
Architects

^_^

[Kyra]

Muse, Family Force 5, Paramore, and NOFX....all great in their own way.
