well, i know few ppl on here who have a great taste in music, so i figure it would be a nice place to get to know some new music. Some music i really like is Nine Inch Nails, there popular but its suprizing how many people dont know about them another good one is The Faint, again there actully pretty popular in certain areas, but they are wicked band What are some good ones? ------------- <1 meg sig = bad> |

I hate people like you. The only "emo" music you know of is probably Hawthorne Heights and Fall Out Boy, both of which are horrendous bands and NOT emo even though they are labeled that because of the modern day "emo" stereotype. You've probably never even heard real emo music. I think Benjichang has gotten in this argument with some people before, so he knows what I'm talking about. |

I'm not talking about emo as it is now... I'm talking about emo music when it first began, when there was no emo image... a prime example for a great early emo band is Sunny Day Real Estate. edit: and carbine, good call on Scary Kids Scaring Kids... they are a good band. |

Funky- How is David Bowie less known/popular? 
Regardless, I think the world needs to listen to more Bowie. Also, another not exactly small band- Wilco Pick up Kicking Television, it rocks, ad is more accessible than their studio stuff. |

Antony is this really androgynous singer (technically a man but she identifies as a woman) with a voice that will absolutely blow you away. You just can't believe that such a voice is coming out of such a person. http://youtube.com/watch?v=ms91KrPN0Ss - http://youtube.com/ watch?v=ms91KrPN0Ss If that's too weird for you, you should probably download some Ryan Adams. -------------

If Prod posts videos, I post videos. Westbound Train is a band I have been starting to get really into as of late. The lead singer has a great soul-singer style voice, with an amazing vibe. The band is a great combination of Roots-Reggae and Soul, with a good early Ska beat. http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZJhprapZfAA&mode=related&search= - Westbound Train - Please Forgive Me -------------

I like screamo a bit better than straight emo, emo just keeps dragging on and on about how someone died or someone's depressed or how someone else got dumped. Also, many songs are acustic, which dosent really entertain me. At least with screamo, you cant understand what they're complaining about. -------------

Blue October's demo CD (They started at a local bar). It's completely different than their well known stuff, but still pretty good. I think you could probably classify it as true Emo. They don't have the look or the sound of cliche emo, but their songs are typically depressing... ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

I have this ability to completely ignore lyrics. If the music (vocals+instruments+rythm) is catchy, I focus on the collective. Basically, I don't pay attention to lyrics. That's why I'm starting to like some of the bands/songs that many people don't like; I seem to like the way they are played. A good example is Linkin Park. I find them catchy for some reason, but no one likes them. Edit: Except screamer! I hate that with a fiery passion! No amount of mad guitar skillz could save a screamer song IMO. I don't like Linkin Parks screamer songs... ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

Lol, Ive liked LP since their debut. People have just written them off as a band for the wannabe punk middle schoolers, but ive held on to them. Cant wait for their new album, think its due no more than halfway through next year. Its kinda wierd, but theres not a single song by them that I havent liked. -------------

i have always enjoyed LP I also quite like screamer song, many times it just takes a bit getting used to, but once you can actully here what there screamer and actully start to listen to how the music is it sounds good. to someone who dosnt listen to screamer music all they hear is noise, you just gotta get used to it There is only 2 kinda of music i refuse to listen to... emo and country yes, there is a couple good songs in each of those genres but for the most part, i hate them ------------- <1 meg sig = bad> |

| Beulah was hands down, the best show I've ever seen live. My friend Tim and I saw them at a little concert hall in Pittsburgh's Southside. There were only a couple hundred fans, and Beulah played fantastic. Near the end of the show, several fans were invited onstage, and the one keyboard player (there are two keys players in Beulah) invited me onstage to shake the tambourine during the songs "Silver Lining" and "Disco." It's a shame a band that good is no longer around. |
