Gallows!

Pants — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 01:20:20 GMT

Anyone else enjoy the Gallows? I saw them at Warped last year and their set/live performance was crazy! The thing is, I had no idea who they were going into it, but my friend's cousin was in town(from England) and see he knew some guys in a band that was on Warped, and he could get us backstage passes, etc. So he did, and we watched Gallows, me having no idea that was them. It was insanely awesome, I picked up their CD right away, only to find out that was the guys friends. They invited ...

Weezer

billy pilgrim — Fri, 09 May 2008 18:33:06 GMT

Kay, so who's a fan?

I love the first two albums and the ones after that I think are....okay. Some really good songs on each and the rest are kind of meh.

Municipal Waste

Mike — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 03:03:48 GMT

This band is hilarious. Plus there's a part of me that will never stop loving really short, fast songs.

Hard Girls

FLIP — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 14:58:14 GMT

Hard Girls = Legit

Quote Unquote - go - download - them.

Less Than Jake

Ross — Wed, 28 May 2008 11:20:18 GMT

What the hell? Am I stupid or is there no topic for LTJ on here?!

New song up on their site anyway, and it's a nice, nice return to their older, more 'Borders & Boundaries'-esque form... PLENTY OF BRASS FUCK YEAH!

Dead to Me

lex — Sun, 20 Jan 2008 03:06:16 GMT

Love this band! I forget how I first heard them, I think it was through The Loved Ones, then I finally was able to see them, and at first I thought they were the techie guys setting up, but then realized they were going to play haha. Favorite song would have to be Something New or Special Professional.

How is there no thread for Alkaline Trio already?

littletriggers — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 00:27:13 GMT

Unless there is and I'm a moron. Hmm. In any event, love 'em? Hate 'em? Let's hear it. Personally I love them and have since first hearing Keep 'Em Coming back in highschool. They're probably one of my top 3 favorite bands. Crimson took effort to actually enjoy, but even though it's their weakest album ever, it has some good songs. Right? Goddamnit is by far the best. Favorite song (overall) is If You Had A Bad Time, then probably Cringe and Bleeder. OH AND check this out If ...

FAKE PROBLEMS, FUCK YEAH.

I don't even know what to say about this band, they make me happy.

mc chris

JustinAtWill — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 21:02:42 GMT

Anybody else love this nerd-core genious? Hah I saw him in P-cola at the gutter lounge, a bowling alley. Same place I saw against me at in 05.

and....He's about to get his own show on adult swim called lil mc. Hope it works out!

Banner Pilot

Tim — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 14:07:23 GMT

Do people here like them? From fatwreck.com: Quote:Banner Pilot is a young punk rock quartet from Minneapolis that formed in 2005 and used to jokingly describe their band as, �if Jawbreaker, The Lawrence Arms, and Alkaline Trio got in a knife fight and Jawbreaker won� but just barely.� Hell, that�s actually a pretty good description! They are releasing a new album called Collapser on the first day of september and you can check out two free mp3's below. Greenwood Skeleton ...

Cobra Skulls

mullets suk — Fri, 01 Feb 2008 02:44:18 GMT

Beans On Toast

unibowler — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 00:56:28 GMT

Has anyone heard of this guy? He's from England. Just one guy with a guitar, and a very unique voice. He doesn't have any records out, but is amazing. He has like 100 songs for free. Check him out!

deepinmyheartlivesanarchy — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 10:36:01 GMT

The Avett brothers - This band is currently getting flack for "selling out" they've been on letterman, and Craig Ferguson. They are the only band I've seen that puts on shows that equals in energy, and spirit to an Against Me! show. They've changed a lot over the years, but they definitely play some of the most honest music, and are in my opinion one of the best bands in this decade. before:2005 Now:2009

Kudrow

DavyGrolton — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 21:31:19 GMT

Jeff from BTMI's new band?

I am streaming their EP right now and I'm loving it.

http://www.vinylcollective.com/2009/10/16/tppo-kudrow-landro-7-jeff-from-btmi-stream/

A little more contained than BTMI but his voice brings up memories of the best BTMI songs.

Tegan And Sara

mary! — Fri, 11 Apr 2008 00:09:40 GMT

Appreciate them here.

i love them.

Off With Their Heads

spraypainthero — Fri, 11 Apr 2008 07:12:34 GMT

i don't know why I haven't made this yet, haha. this band rules. If you don't have the Hospitals EP, buy it now!!! its one of the best pop-punk records released in the past few years. They have their first full length coming out June 17, on No Idea. so who else adores them?

Johnny Hobo & The Freight Trains / Wingnut Dishwashers Union

The Roller — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 00:58:19 GMT

johnny hobo is dead now but love songs for the apocalypse is fucking godlike - wingnut dishwashers union is pretty much the same type of music with lyrics geared towards not drinking all the time. both are great.

opinions?

Audra Mae

ashley — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:57:45 GMT

didn't see a thread for her. gonna be seeing her on the revival tour.

The Mountain Goats (John Darnielle)

walking_for_don — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 05:19:28 GMT

The mountain goats are one of the best folk/lo-fi bands. Mostly john darnielle and his acoustic guitar. The lyrics are very literal, and full of metaphors and are a great rhetoric. Top 3 Favorite bands for me. Anyone like them??

Gatorface

Mike — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 18:33:41 GMT

Yes?

YES!!!!

The GC5

Johnny99 — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 21:22:31 GMT

The GC5 were one of my favorite bands in high school. and then they broke up. but i still love to listen to them. give them a listen. some good punk rock from ohio. i remember them doing a good bastards of young cover also.

The Lawrence Arms

Minty — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 12:30:06 GMT

I'm suprised there isn't a thread already about them! They are still without a doubt my favourite band ever. Recently my music taste has been evolving, but the Larry Arms will always remain at the top stop. They were the first band I ever saw live, supporting Rise Against and Mad Caddies about 5 years ago. I actually got this t-shirt in the post today, it's fucking sweeeeeet! I love eBay.

The Sidekicks

PreAM!2005 — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 23:41:55 GMT

Out of Ohio, its another great band on the run, all to young to drink but play some great music check them out, you will be impressed with such young age

David Bazan

Mike — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 07:29:37 GMT

former singer of Pedro the Lion (who I"ve never listened to). He put out a record this year called Curse Your Branches and the lyrics are fucking outstanding. Does anyone else listen to him or should I just be talking to myself?

Emilyn Brodsky (on the Tom Gabel solo tour!)

Will_McAndrew — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 18:41:12 GMT

Emilyn Brodsky is a singer/song writer from New York City who plays the ukele(fuck spelling) and sings sad song! She just released her new album, "Emilyn Brodsky's Greatest Tits", which you can buy through 3rd story records! Here myspace link is http://www.myspace.com/emilynbrodsky , and you all should check her out.

Seriously great tunes.

Frank Turner (ex Million Dead singer)

Ross — Sat, 12 Apr 2008 20:05:41 GMT

This guy is immense.

He used to sing for Million Dead, now he's doing his own acoustic solo thing. He's punk as fuck at heart.

Anyone?

The Riot Before

lhdez — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 18:47:19 GMT

One of the better bands grabbing attention right now.
If you haven't yet heard them for some crazy reason check their myspace here: http://www.myspace.com/theriotbefore
if by chance you heard the Fest compilation or have their split with Broadway Calls, some of you can attest to We Are Wild Stallions as one of their best songs.

The Menzingers

lex — Fri, 15 May 2009 01:00:06 GMT

I had listened to a few of their songs on Myspace, but I just got A Lesson in the Abuse of Information Technology...wow. I love it. Check them out if you haven't.

Chicken Little

SirIan — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 00:08:59 GMT

These guys played before Apologizes, I Have None and they were phenomenal! They sounded even better than their recordings do. You can download their music on their website.

Apologies, i have none

Stalls_Standing — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 16:37:12 GMT

I first heard them through this website when Dan came on and posted about their 'Beginning In An Ending' cover.
So glad he did, next February they're playing in my living room.

Two Gallants

JakobDoetman — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 08:58:36 GMT

I love them, I can't even begin to tell you guys how much. They are the best 2 bit bands I've heard. Their songs are so heavy and melodic, and Tyson is one of the most inspirational drummers to me.

Defiance, Ohio

I'm obsessed.

Strike Anywhere

lex — Thu, 08 May 2008 18:04:04 GMT

I want to see them live man, every time they come through here I can't go. Thomas always looks so happy, I love it. I think Change is A Sound is their best album personally.

bomb the music industry!

flood — Sat, 08 Mar 2008 01:10:27 GMT

best band ever. you can go download pretty much their entire discography for free (you can donate if you're cool... and yes they were doing this years before radiohead and trent reznor came up with the idea) at [url]www.bombthemusicindustry.com [/url] if you're really cool you can order the vinyl releases of his albums from me be sure to catch them on tour this spring summer .. 3 tours.. one w/ Pegasues XL, one with the Slackers, and then w/ The Queers, Lemuria & Andrew ...

Laura Stevenson and The Cans

laurendelore — Fri, 29 May 2009 02:32:40 GMT

Everyone go download her record here. One of the best voices ever and she is fucking awesome.

Murder By Death

JakobDoetman — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 09:05:31 GMT

Amazing, just amazing, the first time I heard them was when my neighbor Dylan gave me "Like The Exorcist But More Break Dancing" When I was in the 7th grade, I got addicted and I can't stop listening to them. Oh, and someday I will end up marrying Sarah Balliet.

The Bouncing Souls

lex — Tue, 22 Jan 2008 06:29:32 GMT

Probably one of my favorite bands of all time. Their live shows are the best thing since sliced bread almost.

Andrew Jackson Jihad <3

spraypainthero — Thu, 10 Apr 2008 07:31:32 GMT

one of my favorite bands right now. got People blah blah blah....and then got everything else I could. Fucking brilliantlly simple, and I love how they can alternate between the serious and the facetious. People II: The Reckoning is probably my favorite song of theirs.

Above Them

Kieran90s — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 16:16:28 GMT

Has anyone heard these yet? It's like Hot Water Music came from England and got shaved.
Listen to the track 'Keep Smiling' on their myspace and then tell me I'm wrong when I say these guys are FUCKING AMAZING.
