Yeah, they rock. Great mix of ska, new wave, and cheesey b-movie-esque lyrics. Their stuff is the shix.

Other bands I like:
Green Day
Misfits (Danzig mostly, but I listen to Graves every now and then.)
NOFX
Dead Kennedys
Jello Biafra
Rancid
The Casualties (Well... they're OK. I just wish they would strive to write original lyrics. Yeah, your "punk," we got it.)
The Exploited
Sham 69 (Best. Crass. Ever.)
The Cramps
Bad Religion

And so on, and so forth.

[Mac the Janitor]

Ah yes, I forgot Bad Religion and Flogging Molly. Some of their stuff is halfway decent.

Yeah, we have some fantabulous local ska bands here in Arizona. The Dietrichs rock my pants off every single time, and Workshirt Wonder is great as well. The Wiggums were really good, but they recently broke up. Sigh.

Hah, I bet nobody knows what I'm talking about...is there anyone else here that lives in Arizona?

I love my friend's band to death. Halocrine. They're in the process of recording. Keep an ear open for them. Same goes for Mercury Bullet.

And I know we'll never make it, but we do have demo tapes floating around all over the US.

My band is Dirty Davie and the frowning Aardvarks.

[Facsimile]

Lol, nice name.
What do you play?

[Disgruntled Intern]

I'm actually the sorry excuse for lead vocals.

I've been compared to a cross of glenn danzig, rob zombie, roseanne, and frank sinatra.

Our music is weird. Our songs are weird. We're all weird.

I'm glad you like the name.

It used to be "Demonic Davie and the Holy Rollers".

That's when I was experimenting with satanism...and my friends were trying to roll blunts with paper torn from the bible. God, we sure are clever.

Oh yeah, I also rap with a few friends every now and then. we've done a couple small shows, and we entered one competition and got second place.

We're busting our asses off making better beats, getting decent equipment, and trying to get signed to psychopathic records.

It's hard.

[salty pretzils]

I like:

Korn
Linkin Park
And nearly all the music from Final Fantasy VII -_-

[TheKhanzumer]

The music industry is tough DI. My band (whos core members are myself originally doing drums and now vocals, a quitarist who is REALLY good and a bass player who is REALLY good) has had a tough time being taken seriously. We still are looking for a drummer or a singer so that I can do one or the other. The quitarer and I have written over twenty decent songs and counting. We run the show, all the other members who have played with us have all learned that.

We have done some small shows and stuff, but still haven't gotten around to recording anything except on cassette tapes and a four-track program on a laptop computer. Since we haven't made a demo yet it is very hard to get gigs. And since we don't have a lot of money we don't have great equiptment.

Despite all that, we plan on being nationally famous by the time we get out of highschool. We can do it if we try.

So if you ever see a CD by the band PSORiASiS, pick it up for your buddy Khanz. You might even like it. We play a wierd mix of classic punk rock, ska, blues and melodic deathmetal.

Heh... that sounds pretty cool. I'll have to try to get a mix tape of yours from someone. A friend of mine (Big Sean the Juggalo, we call 'im) finds all sorts of crazy, obscure mix tapes from all over the country. I don't know where he finds all this shit, but I'll have to talk to him... chances are he has some of your music.

I swear... he's got a mob connection or is possesed by Jesus... or something.

I'll keep an eye out for your band too, Khanz.

[Facsimile]

I play bass and would like to have a band, but my drummer and guitarist friends aren't as ambitious as me. So it's kind of like I say "Hey let's do stuff," and they say "That might be alright."

[Sekto Springs]

rave at me shortlist:

Gorillaz (they're like a cartoon)
blink 182
N stink (the dis nsync so bad!)
the work of Terry S. Taylor (some very wacky music)
Old People with carmel (they're like all broken up and retirement now)

i have a band called Bash 66, it's based around rap/pop, it's not that good but hey we managed to get an album recorded.

[LuLu_Fund]

Shoot.... here goes.....

Alanis Morissette Prodigy Massive Attack
Ben Folds Five Basement Jaxx Tricky
Tori Amos Tito Puente Soul Wax
Lit Red Hot Chili Peppers Bon Jovi (oh yes!)
Coldplay Creed Danny Elfman
David Gray Eagle Eye Cherry Norah Jones
Foo Fighters Nirvana Destiny's Child
Desree Gloria Estefan (oh yes!) Santana
Marisa Monte Radiohead Sarah McLachlan
Lisa Loeb Queens of the Stone Age PJ Harvey
Placebo Natalie Imbruglia Pink
Daft Punk Lauren Hill Kula Shaker
Jimi Hendrix Bartok Deftones Silverchair Otis Redding Aretha Franklin Byrds
Jamiroquai DeBussy Duke Ellington
Enya Dolly Parton (yes!) Eurythmics
Gomez Jacksons (yes!) Bran Van 3000
REM Finley Quaye Avril Lavigne Talvin Singh
FinalFantasy stuff etc... etc.....

I can go on forever, but I think I'll stop. Always jam with peeps... music was always eclectic, we never do anything about putting the band together properly! So rusty now with my instruments and vocals... it would take a hell-a-lot of practicing to get back to the way I was!

[TheKhanzumer]

I'm depressed that no one else listens to the Pixies. Has anyone else even heard of them? They are one of my favorite bands.

[Sekto Springs]

sure i've heard of pixies, i read lots of fantasy books and they make a darn good candy stick

[LuLu_Fund]

Haven't heard of pixies.... the first thing that went in my head when I read that was Dixie chicks.... which is probably a different thing altogether!

[nads]

Eveanescence kicks ass! I'm listening to it right now.

I also like: Weird Al
Linkin Park
Limp Bizciut
Marylan Manson
Good Charlotte
The Sonic adventures two soundtrack
The VRock C-D
that's it


oh and hootie and his blowfish are pretty good.

[OANST]

Olivia Tremor Control
At the drive in
Dredg
Radiohead
Pearl jam
The Mars volta
Sparta
Neutral Milk Hotel
Circulatory System

Olivia Tremor Controls black foliage album is one of the greatest albums ever made. It makes Phil Specters wall of sound look like a flimsy cubicle.
