ITT: We personally recommend bands to each other.
 
Here's a novel idea. We all know each other pretty well, or well enough to know, for instance, that Shannon is an alcoholic, Nick is a nerd, I wish I was a cowboy, Eric is a big fat stupid, Griffin has the best tatse in music (besides me), Jessica likes stupid Canadian ska bands, etc.

So we will personally suggest bands/albums/songs to each other and we'll all be happy and in love.

[b]Nick[/b]: [i]The Dirty South[/i] by the Drive-By Truckers. Trust me. It's the greatest album of all time.

[b]IHateHate[/b] (Juan?): [i]As Good As Dead[/i] by Local H. Trust me. Grunge that doesn't suck, great lyrics.

[b]Griff[/b]: [i]Anodyne[/i] or [i]No Depression[/i] by Uncle Tupelo. Trust Me. Revolutionary, had the genius idea to combine their love of Johnny Cash, Neil Young, and Southern rock with the boredom and energy of Midwestern punk rock, a la Husker Du, in the late 80's/early 90's, single-handedly ushered in "alt. country".

And so on.

Good Idea, but I dont know if it will work in the long run

AndreTheHyena 10-20-2005 05:15 PM

Shut up, dissenter.

Anxious 10-20-2005 05:29 PM

Good idea, but nothing comes to mind right now.

Brain Toad 10-20-2005 06:11 PM

I find this thread interesting, so I defy the closing mod and reopen it!

And I've already listened to The Dirty South, Andre. It was extreamly good. I listened to Uncle Tupelo and it was alright.

40 oz 2 freedom 10-20-2005 06:20 PM

Quit copying me Andre.

dropkickstreetpunk2 10-20-2005 06:26 PM

Nobody knows me to reccomend me music. and I've been on here for a year.

My names Chris.

evildemonlemurs 10-20-2005 09:51 PM

ive been on here for a few years, but no one knows me. im jesse. i like to keep an open mind to most things, so ill practically listen to anything you reccomend if it sounds like it will be an interesting listen. i have a very wide taste in music and can recomend a lot of bands if you like.

AndreTheHyena 10-21-2005 12:00 AM

Everyone needs to listen to the Ducky Boys.

SactoUnited 10-21-2005 01:30 AM

I agree.

Biscuit_box 10-21-2005 02:38 AM

I think everybody should listen to The Dangerfields. I gave to Nick on Soulseek one time. I'm sure he hasn't listened to it but the rest of you should get it off him.

Anxious 10-21-2005 01:07 PM

And to Andre I reccomend the Mekons, if you already havent heard them.

AIRIC 10-21-2005 01:20 PM

I recommend Bear Vs Shark to Cheesewhiz

Anxious 10-21-2005 01:22 PM

What do they sound like?

AIRIC 10-21-2005 01:27 PM

Indie/punk/emo type thing. They mix many different genres.

Anxious 10-21-2005 01:29 PM

Cool. I think ill download some...

[QUOTE=Biscuit_box]I think everybody should listen to The Dangerfields. I gave to Nick on Soulseek one time. I'm sure he hasn't listened to it but the rest of you should get it off him.[/QUOTE]

I listened to them, they were okay.

I also reccomend Bear Vs. Shark to Dom.

Anxious 10-21-2005 03:09 PM

I have it on my comp, I don't feel like listening to it right now. I'm too caught up in the Fall.I will listen to it today though. Oh yeah I also Reccomend The Fall- [I]Live at the Witch Trials[/I] to Nick.

victimofreality 10-21-2005 03:43 PM

I recommend Bad Religion to Nick because he is gay.

SkaRobotArmy 10-21-2005 10:47 PM

everyone should listen to Insult To Tradition ([url]www.purevolume.com\insulttotradition[/url]) and he's probably heard of them but Kith should check out the vagabonds?

evildemonlemurs 10-21-2005 11:43 PM

I recomend the Residents to anyone. They are most definetly the weirdest band I have ever heard. Personal favorite albums are Duck Stab and the Commercial Album.

TakeWarning 10-21-2005 11:44 PM

I recommend Murder By Death to everybody.

Saberpunk 10-22-2005 12:47 AM

Ive been away for awhile, but i recommend Stuck Backwards to everyone

Biscuit_box 10-22-2005 05:54 AM

[QUOTE=TakeWarning]I recommend Murder By Death to everybody.[/QUOTE]

Yes as do I.
I also recommend Forward By Death (The band not the DK song!)

RetiredAt21 10-22-2005 01:32 PM

I recommend that everyone goes to my Vincent Price's Orphan Powered Death Machine thread and watch that video.

[QUOTE=Skrunnch]I recommend Bear Vs Shark to Cheesewhiz[/QUOTE]
Bear vs. shark played around where I live recently. I didn't see them, but I've heard good thing about them.

[QUOTE=evildemonlemurs]I recomend the Residents to anyone. They are most definetly the weirdest band I have ever heard. Personal favorite albums are Duck Stab and the Commercial Album.[/QUOTE]
Great Albums. I've always loved the residents. I was just listening to tunes of two cities for the first time in a long time. I forgot how much I loved it.

[url]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/asdf23/eyecostume.jpg[/url] This is me dressed up in my residents costume when I went to see them in Chicago a few years back.

AndreTheHyena 10-22-2005 04:19 PM

[QUOTE=Anxious Mo-Fo]And to Andre I reccomend the Mekons, if you already havent heard them.[/QUOTE]

I've heard them, and they're great, but thanks anyway. To you I recommend Man Man. I don't remember their website, but they're on Ace Fu, so you may check the Ace Fu website: [url]www.acefu.com[/url]

[QUOTE=TakeWarning]I recommend Murder By Death to everybody.[/QUOTE]

If you like Murder By Death, to you I recommend Cursive, and if you dig Cursive you may even dig a little Brand New.

minorbrockthreat 10-22-2005 06:31 PM

recomend some thrash bands bitches, like DRI, bones brigade, municipal waste, what happens next, spitting teeth, tear it up, knee deep in Sh it, Shtuff

Brain Toad 10-22-2005 06:32 PM

Andre, you may like Ani Difranco for your folk tastes. And anyone into folk/anti-folk should also check her out.

And Dom, I didn't like Live at the Witch Trials, I liked the other album I have by them though. Witch Trials sounded like Crass.
