Your Music

[JustROLLIN]

http://www.myspace.com/brotherali - one of the best local artists i have EVER heard, saw him live back in october, fucking rocked!

http://www.myspace.com/aliscottmusic - saw her at the same concert (McNally Smith Minnesota Music Festival), great voice, easy on the eyes, even signed the CD cover.

http://www.myspace.com/quietdrive - last show of the night at that concert, these guys kick ass!! also their cover of 'time after time' is a love it or hate it song.

Just got done listening to Brother Ali... Most of my friends dont care for his new album, but I really like it.

As for Modest Mouse, I dont really consider them indie anymore... they are pretty mainstream now.

 

[mazdamn02]

Muse is most certainly awesome, their latest album is pretty fantastic.

I've been listening to alot of avenged sevenfold lately.

 

[DrWebster]

feist, one of my flavors of the week.

Yeah, I've been digging Feist too. Though I just picked up the A Fine Frenzy album, and I love it.

 

[mndsm]

Pennywise, Authority Zero, Stretch Armstrong, Rise Against.... and yes, Avenged Sevenfold.

 

[dmention7]

Rise Against... I remember first hearing some of their stuff awhile ago, and just started picking them up again.

For the most part, I'm all over the place: Dropkick Murphys, NIN, Smashing Pumpkins, Cake, Screeching Weasel, Blind Melon, Tool.......

 

[AJ]

Also on my list

Beck
White Stripes, love the song Conquest!
Hives
Against Me
and even some Sonic Youth. lol

 

[mndsm]

All of those garage retro bands- The Hives, Vines, whoever, can go to hell. Same with Modest Mouse.

 

[ij1889]

rise against is one of my fav punk bands, they are just amazing, they give punk a good name where as green day is slaughtering it now days.

Ok time for some good guitar and metal. If you cant tell I prefer guitar melody over vocals.

[mndsm]

You like guitar, but I see no Dragonforce on there. Curious.

 

[dmention7]

Azn guitarists who are inspired by video game SFX FTW!

 

[mndsm]

Regardless of what he was inspired by, to this day, I have never seen someone play that fast with that kind of precision. Watching the finger work is mind blowing.

 

[dmention7]

See, I'm only marginally impressed by fast playing--that seems to be the staple for about a million metal bands, and it just comes down to raw technical skill. What makes me appreciate that dude, is that half his riffs and solos are straight-up nods to 8-bit cartridge soundtracks.

 

[mndsm]

Very true. But when you look at a lot of the speedmetal bands out there, they thrash fast as hell, but they only throw one or two chords in there, and maybe a mediocre solo or two. When the guy OPENS with something that blows my mind techincal-wise, that is what impresses me. And at least with Through the fire and flames, the opening is insane.

protest the hero, really good guitar, lead singer is k but guitar is awsome

 

[Picklz]

A lot of good bands listed here, Are you going to the Breaking Benjamin show coming up in March Joe? Ive seen em once and they were pretty good, never seen three days grace live so looks like a good show.

I've been listening to some Dream Theater as of late, they have such a huge variety of music, only a small sample is on their myspace but I'm sure you can find more: http://www.myspace.com/dreamtheater

You want good metal guitar...

Living Colour - Cult of Personality

 

[Jesse MS3GT]

Dragonforce is HORRIBLE live thats why I did not mention them... They are 100% protools...

Protest the Heros guitarists are good, I just dont care for the vocals.

Also, speed is not everything when it comes to guitar, thats why I would have more respect for someone like Petrucci or Satriani, they can play both slow and fast. Most metal guitarists forget how to play slow

 

[mndsm]

Makes sense Jesse, was just wondering.

The solo is pretty damn good.
