Chris: Good show. I still can't really get into Envy, though, but I love LATS.

Gav did you ever watch that live Envy video for "Chain Wandering Deeply" on youtube?

That **** will get you into Envy.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXzVxKUZlpc

[cbmartinez]

The new Envy album will change your life.

[Arrakakaka]

Thank you for linking that.. That was the most beautiful live performance I've seen.

there's nothing special about this.

[bottlerocket]

I'll watch it tonight. I promise.

I really do want to get into Envy but I can't.

I WANNA HATE YOU SOOOO BAD
BUT I CAAAAAAAAAN'T STOP THIS
ANYMORE THAN YOU CAN

-Gav

[Sep]

?

there's nothing special about this.

Except for the fact that it's an amazing song and an even better performance.

[pixiesfanyo]

I like the song. But it's just..

That's what every band does when they make a big crescendo?

It's not AMAZING. It's typical and boring.

They should've wore bunny hats.

[bottlerocket]

OMFG I love Daitro and Raein. Thanks, guys.

Someone hook me up with LL...E via YSI plz.

-Gav

[Matt?]

ok so honestly i really don't like envy and chain wandering deeply at all

but after fast fowarding through the boring intro it was pretty good

what is this video?

[White Goodman]

This is probably a really noobish question but how do you get a larger avatar? And by the way the Raein is awesome, I'll dl Daitro right now.

[bottlerocket]

Matt, I owe you for Diatro. This stuff is great.

Where are they from? They still around? Same goes for Raein.

White: You suck up to the mods enough, you'll get one. I hook up certain users for being good users or for helping me out.

-Gav

[Matt?]

if ur friends with mods and give them favors / blowjobs

[team_racket]

i loved that vid of 'Chain Wandering Deeply'. the outburst at 3:38 makes me well up everytime i hear it. so utterly beautiful.

[Matt?]

france

i think they're still around... dunno maybe not


raein- italy- no

[The Great Decay]

What album should I get by La Quiete, and also, what is another good Raein album apart from Il N'y A Pas De Orchestre?

[Matt?]

i like the la quiete collection album tenpeun

[bottlerocket]

raein- italy- no

I figured they were European bands.

I've only got La Fine Non è La Fine by La Quiete.

Luxor posted Raein's split with Daitro. Definitely snag that. Matt posted Daitro's album, too. Get that. They're both awesome.

-Gav

[The Great Decay]

Thanks.

[Sharkboyyy]

Raein, Daitro, and La Quiete are all amazing.
La Quiete passed through NC earlier this month and I'm really upset I was unable to see them. I had planned on going ever since I heard they were playing, but lack of money/gas/etc got the best of me, so I was unable to go. Ughhh, it would have been an amazing show, too.

[bottlerocket]

Someone hook me up with LL...E!

:(

-Gav

[Matt?]

la quiete played in boston which i was gonna take the train to but it was screwed up schedual wise but then i almost could go but then i couldn't get a ride ironically because my dad went to the red sox game without me


i don't like lle sorry gav someone else will hafta hook u up

[bottlerocket]

That show got cancelled, Matt, so good thing you didn't go. Revelation Records got shut down and they were gonna move it to a jam space in Boston but they ended up cancelling it, I heard, so they never played.

-Gav

[Matt?]

i think they moved it to the red sox practice space (i have no idea what this is, it's what the revelation dude told me) and it went on. but i'm not really sure. whatever

[bottlerocket]

I heard it didn't go on. I know they moved it to some jam space near Fenway but I heard they cancelled it.

[Luxor]

Thanks Gav

I used to love Envy. A Dead Sinking Story is an awesome album, then I got All The Footprints... and I thought it was good too. Then I got Insomniac Doze and was just disappointed. I realized how all three of those albums sound exactly the same. There's no progression at all.

[Luxor]

What album should I get by La Quiete, and also, what is another good Raein album apart from Il N'y A Pas De Orchestre?
All of La Quietes albums are good. I have a whole bunch if you want to get them off of me on soulseek, or if anyone else does for that matter.

I may get those from you at some point, right now I feel I should slow down my downloading off people because I never seem to have anything to pay them back with.

[cbmartinez]

All of you need to stop hating on Envy. They're incredible. And Ryan, I truly can't fathom how you could think there was no progression with Insomniac Doze. It's very different for Envy.

Everyone who's ever seen Envy that I've seen, either on a message board or in real life, has said it was one of the most amazing shows they have ever been to.

Well, I can't comment on the live show, never seen them. I watched a bit of one on youtube though, from what I saw it was pretty good.

that's pretty stupid

[cobert]

that's pretty stupid

How is that stupid? Envy are awesome.

[Arrakakaka]

Envy is amazing on all scales. Repetitive, maybe, but their music has so much heart and passion.

[bottlerocket]

Olive Tree's "This Is What Happens When You Stop Believing In Magic" has some of the most emotional and passionate vocals I've heard.

Olive Tree just rules.

it's stupid to say you guys should stop hating envy because they are awesome.

if my oppinion is that they are boring, then how would i think they are awesome?

that's what i mean

[bottlerocket]

So my hall in my dorm is so sweet; everyone's wicked chill and they're all great guys...

...but the dudes who live next door keep blasting Emery, Saosin, From First to Last, Hawthorne Heights, etc., and trying to talk to me about emo.

"You look like you listen to emo and screamo."
"Yeah, I do."
"Sweet. Wanna come over and listen to some music and play guitar?"
"Sure."
"/puts on FFTL."
"Yeah...this band sucks."

They're blasting Coheed right now. I'm blasting Amanda Woodward just because I hate Coheed and don't want to hear it, not to be a dick.

-Gav

[Matt?]

just get them into "real" emo

that sounds like it rules. i can't wait for college

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

Do they take the emo test?

[bottlerocket]

^ Hahaha!

I'm not gonna run around, cramming my ideals about emo down people's throats. If they hear the music and wanna come by and check it out, I'll hook 'em up (I'm playing Lovesick, now). Until then...they can blast MCR all they want.

*ugh* I hate this song. It's some slow-ish song.

-Gav

[Matt?]

i love slowish emo songs

[bottlerocket]

I do, too, but this is MCR.

We Awake Disheartened = good slowish emo song.

-Gav

[White Goodman]

Yeah funny you should mention that. Today the room beside ours was blasting some really sucky Honkey Tonk Badadonk song or something...until my roomate threw a chair at him. Funniest thing i've ever seen, I wish I would have got it on camera.

[bottlerocket]

How big was the chair? :amaze:

-Gav

[Matt?]

we awake disheartened is the only bob song i really like

[White Goodman]

How big was the chair? :amaze:

-Gav

Like a medium sized computer chair. It didn't hit him, but I think it got the point across.

[bottlerocket]

BOB is great.

It's Bob, some lame poster on this forum.

[White Goodman]

Yeah, thankfully my hall doesn't appreciate shitty music.

[Matt?]

they're ok i think

some songs i think are horrible but some are pretty good, we awake disheartened is the only one i voluntarily listen to

[Arrakakaka]

When I'm in college I'll be blasting Welcome The Plague Year.

[cobert]

It's Bob, some lame poster on this forum.

That hurts.

</3

[Matt?]

haha when i'm in college i'm gonna be blasting peeps wit my gat collection

and cap'n jazz.

i imagine college life as such

livin in a dorm blastin cap'n jazz and boys life, socializing and drinkin beerz.

[team_racket]

you taunt me so.

cheers for link anyway. appreciated.

[White Goodman]

Yeah, my alcohol tolerance was very low before college. But man has college changed that.

[cobert]

Cap'n Jazz probably wouldve been accepted at some preppy college circa 1996.

Im thinking about downloading a lot of emo stuff from all the different ages and having one big 20 song CD with the history of emo on it, so I can let my friends borrow it so i wont have to explain it to them once a month.

[Matt?]

20 songs that would be kinda hard to choose...

i made a playlist that has a few of my favorite songs from every band i like and it's like almost two hundred songs

kids round here still dont get it or care. that is a damn good idea. i wouldnt know what to accurately throw on it though. save a lot of time explaining.

[cobert]

I mean like, take one song from the 4 or 5 defining bands of different eras (old 80's stuff, early 90's, late 90's, and 2000 to present).

This sounds like a project.

[Matt?]

i think i want to do this too so i can recruit band members

yea we should make an mxtape

DUDE ROFL I WAS JUST TALKING ABOUT THIS LAST NIGHT WITH NEESHEE BUT WITH AN EMBRACE ALBUM

DAMN I JUST REMEMBERED! ROFL

[cobert]

Ill be needing 20 bands then.

Any suggestions for bands to go on the different sections?

[Matt?]

nineties should be split i think not by early and later but by like indie emo and "screamo" stuff


edit: ROFL damn i could barely comprehend that crusaders post. but i agree with him f'uck this emo bulls'hit

Me too, that Moss Icon album is halfway done.

SDRE and The Hated after that.

[cobert]

http://www.sputnikmusic.com/forums/showpost.php?p=13156344&postcount=4

MATT: Yeah, but if i put indie emo on it, it might give the wrong thoughts ("rofl this is like tbs with more gay singing roflrofl)". Maybe I should just have a lot of 90's screamo stuff on it, maybe throw a little cap'n Jazz on for good measure.

[White Goodman]

If you guys make that mix, let me know because my roomate heard me listening to Hot Cross and Gospel the other day and was wanting to know how to begin in emo, so I would use that as a guide to him I guess.

[Arrakakaka]

I can lend in a few tracks for that if you want. Let me know, AIM is Arrakakaka.

You need Dag Nasty on that mix, they influenced the genre.

not very organized and i'd hafta go through it again to edit stuff i don't really like off the list. but it's a kind of alright start. it's kind of uneven too because i like certain time periods a lot more then others

[Arrakakaka]

Good list. I have a few suggestions.

[Matt?]

some of those bands shouldn't be on there, i was just thinking of bands that fit each profile. not all of them are that important i don't think. it should be edited. i might edit it in a couple of minutes

[Arrakakaka]

Good start though.

[cobert]

Thats a great list. Ill try to weed a few out and add a few more (you and I). Still a good start though, thanks.

[Arrakakaka]

I'd add stuff like The Hated, You And I, Life At These Speeds.

[cobert]

And Heroin. They were pretty cool.

[Matt?]

yeah you and i and heroin probably should be on there, i just don't really like either of them haha.

i only have one song by the hated, but i like it a lot. life on these speeds is awesome but i dunno how important they are to the genre

[Wow]

some of those bands shouldn't be on there, i was just thinking of bands that fit each profile. not all of them are that important i don't think. it should be edited. i might edit it in a couple of minutes


Midwest isn't 90's v1, it's Midwest. Call it that.

[Matt?]

i don't really like that term. there should be a better name then it.


everyone has trouble with it. i mean post emo indie rock...

[Wow]

I don't like the term emo, but I still use it because it's the correct term.

[Arrakakaka]

Life At These Speeds is just sweet. :)

[cobert]

Yeah, I prefer to call it indie emo.

[Matt?]

I don't like the term emo, but I still use it because it's the correct term.
yeah but what if a band that isn't from midwest plays that style.


that's why i don't like it.

WHAT HAPPENS IN THAT SITUATION??

[bottlerocket]

Someone send me Cap'n Jazz and Catena Collapse.

-Gav

[team_racket]

cap n jazz is yummy. prefer to call the style midwestern. and as good as life at these speeds are, i too dont see them important to the development of the genre. good call on the Hated and You And I though.

[bottlerocket]

Cap'n Jazz >>>>>>>>> LATS

LATS is still good, though.

-Gav

[Wow]

yeah but what if a band that isn't from midwest plays that style.


that's why i don't like it.

WHAT HAPPENS IN THAT SITUATION??


It's still Midwest. It's called that because of where it originated and it doesn't matter where it comes from.


Edit: Well, technically it's "Midwest Indie influenced Emo" but Midwest for short.

[Matt?]

ok cool.

PS I HAVE A PACKAGE WAITING

wonder what it is

[White Goodman]

I just dled the Amanda Woodward discography and some Angel Hair and I must say I'm quite impressed with both. I also dled some Jeromes Dream and maybe it needs a few more listens but the vocals are a little bit rediculous to me.

Too much downloading. Buyyyy some

[whiteminority]

Too much downloading. Buyyyy some
Backed.

[White Goodman]

Too much downloading. Buyyyy some

I actually buy most of what I dl. In fact yesterday I ordered all of the Hot Cross albums, Gospel's album, and several other cds that I found on Soulseek. I'm not a total mooch, I just like to try stuff before I buy it.

[Luxor]

Ah, nice. Good job then.

[White Goodman]

Soon enough I believe I need to purchase the Angel Hair, Welcome the Plague Year and a few of the Amanda Woodward cds if I can find them.

[whiteminority]

Check Majority Rule if you havn't already.

[Luxor]

Check Majority Rule if you havn't already.
Nah

[White Goodman]

I just found the Welcome the Plague Year, Angel Hair, and a few Orchid albums I haven't bought yet, I'm gonna have to buy them next week I guess. No I haven't checked out Majority Rule yet, I'll get around to it soon enough.

[Luxor]

La Quiete renamed the two Pure Pain Sugar songs on their myspace. They're now called Guigno and Piccolo something.

I'm confused about this album though and I can't find any info. Is it a full length? When is it being released? It isn't already released, is it?

the 7" is coming out together with a cd that will contain videos

I buy emo stuff on CDs and stuff. Actually, my friend saw the Ampere/Sinaloa split and some other surprise album (hasn't told me yet) on vinyl and got them for me. My friends rule.

Damn United States law, I have to wait about 3 years for that. Oh well I can still drink illegally which I do anyways. I'll be 18 so I can go to to tittie bars and buy cigars, really awesome.

I always tell my friends to download songs, then they tell me they cant find them, and I ask them what they use, and they all use iTunes.

'Sup Emo guys? Been a long time since I've posted here.

So I've got this speech class, as in public speaking, and one of our speeches is informative and I was thinking, emo might be a good one. Should I? I have to have visual aids, I'd probably use clips of emo songs, etc. Talk about the history and all. My audience will be 18-20 year olds. Good idea? Bad idea? Shut the **** up we don't care?

[Wow]

Bad idea.

[bottlerocket]

Eh...it could be interesting but I doubt others will get into it.

-Gav

[Sleeper]

Most of them probally have the narrow mind set on what Emo is, could be a good wake up call. Go for it.

[ChilltowN]

Hmm... it sounds intersting to me but i think it really depends on the things you say.. any weirdos in your class who are all scared about emo ****?

[DFelon204409]

Most of them probally have the narrow mind set on what Emo is, could be a good wake up call. Go for it.

I think it'd be sweet. There's a lot of material, and it's easy to be authoratative about it.

[ChilltowN]

True. I say why not.

[bottlerocket]

You gotta know your audience. I bet they wouldn't care.

-Gav

[DFelon204409]

Bet they would. They care about music in some way and I know people have opinions on emo, informed or not.

[cobert]

http://www.purevolume.com/amusementparksonfire

omg my old band.

EDIT: Do the emo presentation.

[Luxor]

I don't think it's a good idea. All you'll get is a bunch of people saying "wtf, this sounds just like slipknot who cares" or something stupid.

For the majority of people the only genres that exist to them are country, rock, rap, punk and classical. Anything beyond that and they'll have no idea what you're even talking about.

[Brain Toad]

Well it's supposed to informative, so it's fine if they have no idea.

There is quite a few musicially ignorant people in my class, but I know for a fact even if they don't care, they will show interest and support, as it's a requirement for the class to be positive.

I think I'll do it, unless I get a better idea between now and then.

[pixiesfanyo]

I played Pg.99 for a history of punk rock in my class.

Everyone stopped talking to me for a couple days after that presentation.

[blizzard]

Mmmm Probably the wrong place to say this but I think I'm becoming emo :eek:

What would be the "correct" explanation? "I'm listening to Envy and getting in touch with my feelings"?

what

[Luxor]

becoming emo lol

[bottlerocket]

What would be the "correct" explanation? "I'm listening to Envy and getting in touch with my feelings"?

what

You can't "be" emo. Emo is a genre of music not a state of being. BTW I don't like Envy and I've always been in touch with my feelings. Please be understanding. :(

Luxor's got it right.

-Gav

[Pete]

You can't "be" emo. Emo is a genre of music not a state of being.

Luxor's got it right.

-Gav
I know, hence my curiosity of why you asked him to explain.

The only kind of music you can become is metal. And possibly hardcore.

[bottlerocket]

I want to see how he explains it. I'm curious as to how he thinks you can "become emo."

I also want a cheap lol on my way to class in a few minutes.

-Gav

[Pete]

I think my explanation was kinda good. I was actually listening to Envy the other day whilst getting in touch with how I feel about asians.

Mostly asian girls though. I feel a slight tingle when I think about them.

[blizzard]

well, I've always sought just been me, very reserved didn't show much emotion.... listening to like hard rock, metal, jazz and what not.

Just over the last couple weeks or so, maybe a little more, I've found I've been much more emotional. One day I was peaking and troughing from being really depressed to being really happy every 15 minutes. I cried once for the first time in ages. Just a few days ago I was feeling down and I cut myself to see what it likes.... I didn't really enjoy it though it actually made me feel better. And also I've been getting into more punk/hardcore/emo type bands senses fail, my chemical romance etc. which normally when I hear I just turn off because I don't like the screaming.... but for some reason they actually made sense to me. As far as fashion I don't dress emo at all really, other than I have a few black shirts.

[blizzard]

I want to see how he explains it. I'm curious as to how he thinks you can "become emo."

I also want a cheap lol on my way to class in a few minutes.

-Gav

What I meant buy becoming emo is moving more away from mainstream and being more emotional.... I don't think 'becoming' is exactly the right term but I couldn't think of anything better.

[bottlerocket]

^ LOL BINGO THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED ROFL

Gtfo, please, because you have no idea what you're talking about. Read the rules and definitions thread. and stop being a wise ***. Just because you're from the bass forum doesn't mean I can't ban you for trolling.

-Gav

[blizzard]

TBH I don't really see how I'm trolling but yeah that could just be me. And I'm not just saying this because I want to be dickhead or anything everything I said is the truth and like I said I'm not sure whether it was the right place but I just needed to say it.

[Pete]

Because you, just like the millions of confused kids out there like you, seems to think mentioning My Chemical Romance and Senses Fail in this forum is a good idea. If there was a "girly metal"-forum, I'd tell you to take it there, but since there isn't I just wouldn't talk about them at all.

[bottlerocket]

TBH I don't really see how I'm trolling but yeah that could just be me. And I'm not just saying this because I want to be dickhead or anything everything I said is the truth and like I said I'm not sure whether it was the right place but I just needed to say it.

I thought you were joking. :amaze:

Those bands are not emo bands...at all. They are to emo what Nickelback is to metal. Read the rules and definitions thread to get into some emo bands.

http://www.myspace.com/raein
http://www.myspace.com/offminor

And yeah, this is not the right place at all. I back Pete on the "girly metal" forum thing. We should ask J for one.

[SunnyDayRealEstateAM]

I feel like shooting myself in the head everytime someone calls something/someone emo. Hence the reason I don't hang out with some people anymore.

[bottlerocket]

Yeah, I hate people. Always have. Always will. I think the majority of people are incredibly selfish and stupid.

I'm a pessimist in every sense of the word. My glass is always half empty.

-Gav

[AIRIC]

Yeah when I hear someone say emo or punk I shudder. Such a sore subject to talk about.

[Luxor]

Doesn't bother me. People can call emo whatever they want. I just refer to actual emo as hardcore. Makes things easier.

[cobert]

^ LOL BINGO THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED ROFL

:lol:

Doesn't bother me. People can call emo whatever they want. I just refer to actual emo as hardcore. Makes things easier.

No, I used to do this, but then it makes me want to call normal hardcore 'punk'. Its like you have to move all of youre genres around because you want to let people call FFTL emo.

[Arrakakaka]

Yeah, I hate people. Always have. Always will. I think the majority of people are incredibly selfish and stupid.

I'm a pessimist in every sense of the word. My glass is always half empty.

-Gav
That's the way I think.

I've had that whole emo conversation too many times that I just refer to the genre as emotive hardcore now if I'm with friends. It's been thrown around and trampled to death, and I'm a little tired of it. And the sad part is that I can't do Jack's **** about it.

[cobert]

Thats why were compiling songs for an uber emo history compilation.

[whiteminority]

No I haven't checked out Majority Rule yet, I'll get around to it soon enough.
Do it if you like darker/tad more spastic stuff.

blizzard = my new favorite poster for making me cry laughing.

[White Goodman]

Do it if you like darker/tad more spastic stuff.

Yeah, i'll check them out. And I just read the whole bit about the guy "becoming" emo, lol. At least when I came in here to find more emo/hardcore/etc. I named good bands. And the first time I saw his post I thought he had a Brokeback Mountain avatar.

[Arrakakaka]

Thats why were compiling songs for an uber emo history compilation.
If you need something, let me know.

[Sharkboyyy]

Thats why were compiling songs for an uber emo history compilation.

THATTTT sounds like something worth getting excited about.

[RetiredAt21]

Werd to that.

[Pete]

Thats why were compiling songs for an uber emo history compilation.
If you're making a chronological compilation, make sure the last two tracks are songs by Taking Back Sunday and My Chemical Romance.

[RetiredAt21]

rofl

[DFelon204409]

I like the uber history. I feel like some must have songs are "Woolworm" by Indian Summer, "Postlapsaria" by Saetia, and "JCM 143" by You and I.

[bottlerocket]

All those songs are gold.

-Gav

[cobert]

I like the uber history. I feel like some must have songs are "Woolworm" by Indian Summer, "Postlapsaria" by Saetia, and "JCM 143" by You and I.

Believe it or not, I started writing a list, and those were among the first songs i wrote down. I only want one song from each band and those sprung to mind for each of those.

This history CD got a lot more attention than I expected. I just wanted to announce I was making a CD for my friends to listen to so i dont have to hassle them to download stuff, now its almost a forum project, which is radddd.

[Sharkboyyy]

Funeral Diner, Raein, Make Me, La Quiete, and Kaospilot should probably be on that list, too. Especially because some of those bands differentiate from the others stylewise a lot, but are still considered screamo.

[Matt?]

i like all those bands but seriously some of those haven't really had that big of an impact.


make me... i mean i like them but come on... they certainly aren't waranted for the list


ps. larry bird ep is now my favorite album i own. suckas

Yeahhh, I will agree with that, the whole impact thing. Make Me isn't really big at all, the only reason I put their name in there is because their sound is fairly unique compared to other bands.

[Arrakakaka]

French/Italian screamo is the shiz man.

[Matt?]

"screamo is tight"

[cbmartinez]

Jesus Christ, Envy was incredible. Life At These Speeds played really well to and Sleeping People might be one of the trippiest bands I have ever heard. I picked up Source Tags And Codes on Vinyl and Yaphet Kotto's The Killer Was In The Government Blankets on vinyl. Also got an awesome Envy shirt and There Were Wires- Somnambulists on CD. I was gonna get two I Hate Myself 12"s but I got Yaphet Kotto instead. They had a really nice CD collection and I saw a neat An Albatross 7".

But yeah, one of the best live performances I've ever seen.

[pixiesfanyo]

when i did my history of punk rock project for class the three bands i used for emo were Indian Summer, Pg.99, and Hot Cross. To show the evolution and all.

[Sleeper]

I love the intro's to Indian Summer's songs.

[Wow]

The sound clip intros from those old shows?

And how did the class take that.

:lol:

[cbmartinez]

I'm so proud of you Chris.

Thanks?

[Arrakakaka]

I was here
Because I was ready to leave
It should mean more, but it can't
So dance dance
Dance to the sounds
Of America's best dressed fake out.

I love that song.

[RetiredAt21]

I love the intro's to Indian Summer's songs.

They only complained when I played Ghost Mice.

[Dextomethorphan]

Hahaha
Gosh I love Ghost Mice. But why complain about them after hearing other stuff that you undoubtedly played

[Sep]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KUEqTBFqLnw

That song is soooo awesome

[Arrakakaka]

I love Yaphet Kotto.
Yeah they're a good band. The pop-punkish vocals with the screaming are real tight.

Does anyone have any Still Life? They're elusive on soulseek.

My IM screenname is Arrakakaka.

Remember the three ka's.

[Matt?]

seen that pine video before. it owns.

[Brain Toad]

Hahaha
Gosh I love Ghost Mice. But why complain about them after hearing other stuff that you undoubtedly played

Probably because of the vocals and lyrics. I can see a lot of people having problems with those.

[cobert]

Gimme some of you guyzes slsk names.

I would use limewire thats already on my computer, but its being gay and I cant download because it doesnt have the music publishers license.

And i need 4 or five of the best of the best modern emo bands (from the 2000's) to put on the CD.

[White Goodman]

My slsk name is James Bondage. Would pg. 99, Circle Takes the Square, or Hot Cross make that list and if not, then I guess I would say Raein or Amanda Woodward next. I guess my opinon probably wouldn't be the best to judge since I've only been on here for like 2 weeks or so.

[cobert]

I know City of Caterpillar is going on there, and that pg99 is definitely going to be on there somewhere. Hot Cross is arguable. Id like to have CTTS, but i need to think about it a little bit more.

All downloading programs piss me off, thats why I just buy albums. For the same reason, thats why i dont have much music. :-/

I try to buy all the music I like, but sometimes its just too much. But usually i'm good getting around to buying cds, that's why I kept a most wanted list.

[cobert]

**** this, ill just get someone to send me the songs I need over AIM after we get the list together. I need some reccomendations for one song by each of these bands.

Husker Du
Dag Nasty
Rites of Spring
Embrace
Moss Icon
Native Nod (probably Tangled)
Heroin (not sure about this band yet)
Indian Summer (dont even bother, its gonna be woolworm/angry son)
Cap'n Jazz
SDRE (not sure bout them, if they do make it, ill probably put 48)
Some other indie emo band
Saetia (probably postlapsaria)
You and I (probably 143 jcm)
Joshua Fit For Battle
Jeromes Dream
Pg99
Orchid
City of Caterpillar
Then i need like, the best 3 bands around today, with diversity. So Gospel will probably make it, then maybe IWSMOFFY, its up to you guys to debate on the next one or two.

EDIT: And tell me if you dont think a band belongs, or if there should definitely be someone on there thats not.

[White Goodman]

Oh and by the way whiteminority, I checked out Majority Rule's split with pg. 99 and the Emergency Numbers album and I love them.

Moss Icon-Moth or Divinity Cove are my personal favorites

City of Catepillar-****ing Hero or And You're Wondering How a Top Floor Could Replace Heaven

Jerome's Dream-i'm probably the only one here who doesn't like them

I was thinking For Want Of, also.
Moss Icon is up to you guys. I like a lot of their stuff, I just cant decide.
Embrace selection noted.
Top Floor would be good for COC
Meh, Venus and Bacchus is alright, but Postlapsaria is just too good to ever pass up.
JFFB, Pg99, Orchid, and Dag Nasty noted.
I dont really like Jeromes Dream either, their vocals are bad. Theyre on here because theyre one of the more popular bands.
I dont get why nobody ever likes 48 by SDRE. Grendel could work too.
Im thinking Yr Electric Surge is Sweet from Gospel, maybe. Then again, im not too much into gospel, its all up to you guys.

[cobert]

Husker Du - Suck

Then name 2 other early hardcore bands that influenced emo.
Blood Money is a radddd song, i might have to use that.
For fear of it Goin' down, i will put Thirty Dollar Bill.
Orchid - LOLOLOL
Everything else noted, especially RABL.

[Wow]

Oh I just don't like them. I'm not saying don't use them but because I'm not a fan, I don't know any of their songs.


Dude, it doesn't matter if you don't like their vocals, you HAVE to listen to the second half of Thirty Dollar Bill. One of the best emo moments ever recorded.

[White Goodman]

Thirty Dollar Bill was the only song I halfway enjoyed by them. The rest I found annoying because of the vocals, really didn't enjoy them.

Ooooh, okay. Ill wait for somebody to come in that knows about all of that stuff.

Will do, will do.

[Matt?]

no offense, it's a pretty ok list for the purpose but i personally don't like it.

the way i see it is you took most of the emo bands i never listen too and put them on a mixtape. snoozefest for me. but i mean i guess a lot of those bands are "important"

i dunno how i'd improve it though.

[cobert]

I dont regularly listen to about half of those bands either, but thats just because im picky. I listen to most of them occasionally though. I was just trying to get some of the differnt types of emo down, just so I could introduce it easier to my friends.

That is what im going for, but i just organized the bands into groups of 4 or 5 for the different stages. You can see how the first few on there are early emo and the stuff that influenced them, then it goes more into the indie, then chaotic stuff.

Gross.

gtfo, The Number Twelve r00l.

But just to clarify for the other guy, theyre not emo.

[Jessizzle]

I like the number 12 looks like you.
I havnt listened to them in a year, but whos keeping track.
what are they exactly?

[cobert]

Tech metal.

[bottlerocket]

^ Scene.

-Gav

[cobert]

Good.

[bottlerocket]

They're OK, though.

-Gav

[Wow]

What about Gashaetia


Now that you mention it, Gav and I were thinking of doing another song soon.


But I also started a band about World of Warcraft with my friend Joey called The Undead Poet Society so I dunno.

[cobert]

They're OK, though.

-Gav

Oh what the hell, a few weeks ago this came up and it was just me and you that didnt think they were gay, now I guess its just me.

I need to start a real band around here, not some watered down generic popcore that lists Bullet For My Valentine as their influences.

If youre influenced by a band that youve only been hearing for 2 months, thats called being a rip-off.

[bottlerocket]

I still dig them. One of my guilty pleasures. :(

An Inch of Time for an Inch of Gold > POYRRG >>>>>>> NSN

-Gav

[cobert]

I still liked Nuclear Sad Nuclear. POYRRG was definitely their best though.

If deez bullets cud talk = Intense

[RCVA]

My favourite embrace song is can't forgive. Maybe i should listen to the other songs more if no one else agrees haha.

Dag Nasty should be The Godfather.
I love that song.

[cobert]

Im still not sure if I want Dag Nasty on there. If somebody can think of another band ill replace them, or maybe just take them out.

[RCVA]

To me they're just hardcore.

[cobert]

Yeah, thats why im questioning if they should be on there. Husker Du was just hardcore too, but they were like, proto-emo.

[whiteminority]

Yep.

yeah go ahead and screw sunny day real estate and do jawbreaker.

[cobert]

yeah go ahead and screw sunny day real estate and do jawbreaker.

k, I was unsure about SDRE, Jawbreaker would be better.

[whiteminority]

I like both but Jawbreaker is much better. Picking a song though is up to the rest of you guys.

[cobert]

Didnt they do Seafoam Green?

That song was pretty raddddd.

[RetiredAt21]

The Number 12 is lame.

[Dextomethorphan]

I love Jawbreaker, but I thought you guys always said they're not emo.

Picking a song though is up to the rest of you guys.

Accident Prone or Chesterfield King?

[cobert]

The Number 12 is lame.

Incorrect.

[Sleeper]

I really like the song Civeta Dei by Number 12.

[pixiesfanyo]

more like da # twave

[Concubine]

Are Jerome's Dream any good?

[whiteminority]

YES

[White Goodman]

meh, I really didn't enjoy the vocals at all, personal taste I guess.

[Wow]

Dude, I don't care what anyone says, "Move Along" by The All-American Rejects brings the ruckus.

[Dextomethorphan]

I can't get into the vocals from old JD at all, but the later records...I love it.

[RetiredAt21]

Are Jerome's Dream any good?

F'uck yes. They are awesome.

[Jessizzle]

Dude, I don't care what anyone says, "Move Along" by The All-American Rejects brings the ruckus.
Like forever ago, I walked into music world and just picked up the first cd i saw, Just for fun, cause i had a gift cirtificate. It ended up being the all american rejects. and i still like them.

[RetiredAt21]

Dude, I don't care what anyone says, "Move Along" by The All-American Rejects brings the ruckus.

...

:eek:

[Eliminator]

That statement is true.

But uh... the kiddy chorus? No.

[RetiredAt21]

Seriously, the kiddy chorus is really gay. Definitely the gayest part of an already gay song.

[Jessizzle]

Thats why i just stick to kelly clarkson and BTMI.

[cobert]

Kiddy Chorus : Pop music :: Whoahs : Hardcore

[Jessizzle]

EEEeh. Good lunk tonight cob.
dedicate a song to me. k thnx >_>
