| Pedro - Hey man, what type of band were you in and what instrument did you play? |
we played alot of alternative rock music
things like bush, nirvana, smashing punpkins, greenday, etc...
thats what we started out with...
but our songs were really nothing like any of those bands...
our guitarist was deeply rooting in bluegrass and play some of the craziest solos and pick faster than anyone I have ever heard, so that played alot into a music,
versus were usually composed of intricuge finger picking seading into a fast paced, ligtly destorted chorus...dont really know of any bands that we sounded like though
i played bass guitar and on occasion (in the studio) the drums
thanks for the suggestions guys, so far I've got like almost two gigs on it
heres what I've got:
bush (every album)
Red Hot Chili Peppers (all recent albums)
placebo (a couple complete albums and a few random songs)
311 (greatest hits album)
teancious d (entire album)
if I can get my hands on some soundguardan im gonna put that on there

You guys wouldn't know real music if it kicked you in the balls, and took a shit on your face. |
Most bands mentioned totally suck but Id like to see a list of your favorite bands.
No need to list any song individually because if a band only has 1 good song then they suck.
Baby Strange
Beats for Beginners
Cervello Elettronico
Lost Sounds
Spearmint
VHS or Beta
Just added some links to their webpages. That my friends is quality music.
Well indie music has its gems but most bands that are indie do indeed stay indie because they arent very good.
To say the bands already mentioned arent real music just because you like to be a loner inst fair.I say most of them suck because they do but you probably dont like them because they are mainstream.
Am I right?
You are right, because mainstream implies that they are sellouts and no longer care about making music, please feel free to name one quality mainstream artist.
@ Everything: Incusbus Hoobastank 311 off the top of my head
I sincerely hope you were joking.
guys I asked for band suggestions, not for you guys to come in here and shit all ove rmy thread with your "i'm so indie" bullshit.
Everythingbutananswer...you are about the least "indie" a person can be you fucking poser.
I have alot of friends who are "indie" and they dont go around talking about how indie they are...because being "indie" has to do with rejecing lables and stereotypes, and by going around screaming, "im so indie" you are turning that into a label itsself which is the exact oposite of the word....and not listening to a band because it is quote "mainstream" is retarded. I like some "indie" music and some 'mainstream' music.
it isnt about every thing mainstream being shitty, its about you being a fucking dumbass
recomend me some of thses "indie" bands at least if you are going to come in here and shit in my thread
When did I say I was "indie"? When did I say I was a part of the "k3wl" indie scene? Last I remember I just suggested some quality artists who happen to be unknown you tools because you don't know real talent for shit. Just because you don't know about an artist doesn't make them indie you fucking douche (as they could be mainstream elsewhere), and you are right, I don't listen to most mainstream, because it is tasteless, talentless bullshit, all of those "artists" are fucking puppets of the major labels. I already recommended some "indie" groups a few posts back.

Nothing like having to follow guidelines to, "be yourself".
Why don't you Indie folk make like the Indians and die.
My music taste will probly give you all a good laugh.
Duran Duran
Digital Underground
Fleetwood Mac
Matthew Sweet
Sister Machine Gun
Foreiner
Thats what is in my playlist most of the time.
Hmmmmm does this mean I'm old?
"I wanna be different, just like all my friends" -Random Goth dude.
I find it pretty stupid for people to make fun of people for their taste in music. I'll listen to anything, and have wide tastes. Everything, you're a dousche.
Editted list above.
Enjoy your music, and I will enjoy mine, but I have every right to point out your tastes in music suck.
Alright, you go on butt-loving your music, and leave us to ours. There's no reason to come in here and say "my opinion is superior to yours". If you love your Barney pop, good for you, if you don't like what we listen to, Go Fuck yourself.

Why do you get so offended when someones opinion is superior to yours (oh the irony

)? As for the go fuck yourself comment, I hope that applies to you as well

.
I get offended when someone comes into a thread and shits all over.
Mod... Plz trash this thread.
You're the biggest moron I've ever seen... So much for a community eh?
If indie performers spent less time putting bags on their heads and jacking each other off, and started focusing on their music, it could be real quality. Unfortunately that won't happen.
Good main-stream bands?
Sage Francis
Rancid
Rammstein
Die Toten Hosen
Streetlight Manifesto
Trans-Siberian Orchestra
Quality music you say? Hmmm, I'll check them out when I get home. I'm interested to know your definition of so called "real" music.
It's all subject to opinion at the end of the day. There's no use getting into some school boy argument about "you don't know real music" etc. No one will ever win an argument where peoples opinions are involved. You like what you like, bollocks to what anyone else says about it. I'd rather spend time enjoying my stuff than dissing someone else for theirs.
I am into rap and some funny rock like Tenacious D or anything like that.
