The PLASmatic Music Recomendations

[PLAS]

I'm curious about Hatebreed, I know they are NuMetal kind of stuff, but are they any good? I'd like to check them out

 

[Edd Extraordinaire]

"Emo" Edd recommends:

Mineral's "The Power of Failing":
Well, what can one say about this album? It is just put together so well in my opinion. The music, singing, lyrics....It's hard to describe, you have to hear it for yourself.

Armor For Sleep's "Things To Do When You Are Dead":
This band's first album was very good, but this album is 5 times better. Their guitar style reminds me a lot of Sunny Day Real Estate's style. They sound nothing like them, but you hear a chord hear or there and you pick it up. Anyway, this is one of the bands in my opinion that break away from the sound of everything else out there today. They are trying to do their own thing, and that's awesome. The whole theme of death and beyond of this cd sounds unoriginal, but in reality it's one of the most completely original albums around.

 

[thedeadite]

yeah..i'll do more of a "review" thing later..but seeing as i just woke up and have to leave for work soon for right now you will get a short list of bands/artists you SHOULD be listening to but are probably not;

Johnny Thunders (and the Heartbreakers)
Melt Banana
Immortal Technique
Guitar Wolf


p.s. Mineral is AMAZING!

 

[Franklin Richards]

I've been listening to alot of Chingon lately. Great stuff! I'm trying to get tickets for one of their shows in Austin.

 

[Sarge]

Pure Rock n' Roll. Not much else to it.

 

[PLAS]

Chingon is actually a great band, much better than Robert Rodriguez's movies

 

[PLAS]

Interpol: Antics

a very sad album, with some pretty enigmatic lyrics, this album strays a little bit from the Joy Division sound that made them popular in Turn On The Bright Lights, it is atmospheric and round, with beautiful guitar sounds and subtle arrengements

not to mention the voice is one of the sexiest voices I've heard

 

[FVD]

Opeth are a great band though I've only got the Blackwater Park album.

Other recommendations. Bands such as:

Deep Purple
Dream Theater
Spock's Beard
Uriah Heep
Symphony X
Pain Of Salvation
Yes
Rush
Genesis (Peter Gabriel era mostly)
King Crimson
Black Sabbath
Rainbow
Dio

and much, much more....

 

[Holly Goodhead]

i can never get enough of Garbage

 

[GunBlade]

Garbage's new CD's coming out in april. wooooooooooo

 

[Holly Goodhead]

i like Why Do You Love Me..but my favorite is still Version 2.0

 

[GunBlade]

2.0 is awesome too, but I liked their debut CD better. Stupid Girl, all that goo stuff.

 

[Holly Goodhead]

i havent even listened to their 3rd album.

 

[GunBlade]

 

[CameraObscura]

Peaches is awesome

 

[The Amazing Lee]

Leftover Crack- F*** World Trade

Recently signed to Jello Biafra's Alternative Tentacles Records, these ska-punk squatters from NYC rip at the establishment with this album. It might just be the political lyrics that I like, but these guys just f***ing rock. www.alternativetentacles.com (please support indie labels)

I saw them live in London last year. They completely rule!

I love those bands. But I think the point of the thread is to review a certain album by an artist and convince others to buy/download it.

Hell yeah. I have yet to see them, but my friend did. I love them.

 

[The Amazing Lee]

A band I saw that supported "Leftover Crack" who are English.

"The Filaments"
Album:"What's Next"

I've only heard a couple of tracks off their album but I want their album so bad. Their hardcore punk/ska is a great mixture and shows you that england still has the punk edge. I'd say that they have elements of Rancid in them but because they are british their music seems different and less Americanised as it were.

They're music relates alot to current issues and their beliefs, the best song I've heard so far is a song called "Bastard coppers"

Their punk rock is very upbeat but at the same time it's a PUNK punk band. Very hardcore in the sense that even though they aren't an old band they've got a PROPER punk vibe, not a pop punk image.

It also helps when the band are older/maturer than your regular new punk band

very interesting list, I have music from many of the bands mentioned there, some I need to check it

but it would be much better if you actually reviewed some of the bands you mention there, and why do you find them interesting

 

[PoAnTimRSexi]

Many, many props to the guy who listed Refused's "Shape of Punk to Come" and Ted Leo's "heart of oak" a few pages back... two of my favorite cd's.

I've been rocking out to some harder **** as of late, just in one of those phases I guess... Madball, Hatebreed, Hoods, Unearth, etc... those who like hardcore definitely need to atleast check out Madball and rock out with your cock out
