I need something new to listen to... something to get me through these last month or so of cold weather. Seen posts like this before on here but not in awhile. So what are you listening too??
some of the newer bands on the mp3 player are:
Chevelle Buckcherry Breaking Benjamin Black Tide Hurt Flaw Finger Elevan
older standbys:
NIN Metallica Greenday Offspring Korn Staind Tool
Don't really like any of that winey punk stuff like New Found Glory or Saves the Day, etc... just not my cup of tea.
"I'm a mog. Half man, half dog. I'm my own best friend."
Try some real punk, not whiney emo pop punk crap. Take you in a whole new direction...check my profile for a link to my punk internet radio station....and enjoy.

Not much into Chevelle but The Clincher is a good song. Staind and Breaking Benjamin are two of my favorites and also two of the best voices in rock in their leads.I saw Hurt open for Staind and 3 Days Grace, they were pretty good.
How about some Godsmack??

Chevelle's 2nd CD, Wonder What's Next, is really good. I also agree on Breaking Benjamin and Staind. Breaking Benjamin is by far my favorite band. Ben Burnley has such a unique voice, and he can change he voice so well and quickly, makes for some great music.

I have heard they are working on a new album. You are right about Benjamin, he has such a great range in his voice, not just in pitch but also tone and texture.

Seether, 3 Days Grace, Breaking Benjamin, Finger Eleven. and Alterbridge are a few of my current favorites.
Micah 6:8; He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
John 14:19 Jesus said: Because I live, you also will live.
Please don't take offense if I didn't like a band you had on here... some people take this stuff personal. I spent a few hours on ITunes today...
From the post I checked out:
Egypt Central - checked them out and bought a couple of ther songs... You Make Me Sick and The Way Another Black Day - another haven't heard of before.. got Wicked Souls 10 Years - already been listening to them... love Wasteland... 12 Stones - Liked Adrenaline... actually liked a bunch of there songs. I'll have to come back to them Signs of Betrayal - Seems like a band that could grow on me... got a couple of theres too... My Song to You, Torn Down, and Blink Soulidium - again seemed like a band that could grow on me.. got The Light Rishloo - very tool'esk... like em. got The Water is Fine and Fames Tiger Army - different... not for me Hit The Lights - not me State Radio - in the right mood I can mellow out to these guys... got Right Me Up and Camilo Operator - heard em... like Soulcrusher Ted Leo & The Pharmacists - not really into them The Birthday Massacre - Not schovenistic but I usually just can't get into a band with a woman lead... The Donnas - same The Epoxies - not me Godsmack - not really in to them anymore... use to be... not sure why I can't get into there music anymore Static-X - Cold! We're so Cold!!! Yeah like them too... Sixx AM - Had listened to Life is So Beautiful.. other than that hadn't heard too much. Did like Heart Failure Shinedown - Love this dudes version of Simple Man...

"I'm a mog. Half man, half dog. I'm my own best friend."
None of these bands would probably appeal to most people...
Polkadot Cadaver Circus of Dead Squirrels Devil Wears Prada Killwhitneydead Arsonists Get All The Girls Job For a Cowboy Meshuggah Sear Bliss Swallow The Sun
Most of those are some variation of metal - death, deathcore, gloom, black, etc...
Hurt is a great band. I love Vol. 1. Great CD.
Not as heavy...
Tantric has a new CD coming out. Their new song is called Down & Out. It's on their myspace page. Worth a look. Took a couple listens for me, but I like it now.
Serj Tarkin(I probably spelled his last name wrong)'s solo CD is also pretty cool. Beethovan's C***, Sky is Over, Empty Walls... good stuff.
Evans Blue - yeah like them... love Cold (But I'm Still Here) Dropping Daylight - seem pretty good... I got Tell Me Bullet for my Valentine - another that I think would grow on me... got Tears Don't Fall and All These Things I Hate FF Death Punch - like The Bleeding alot...

I'll try to add some more bands over the next few days. The ones earlier were just off the top of my head. Here are a few more if you want to check them out.
Souls Harbor Cold (now disbanded, but have about 5 CD's out, all of which are good) Allele (better when the old lead singer, Wally, was in the band) Digital Summer Novus Dae Aizen (used to be called Media Lab, just recently changed to Aizen) Intheclear
And still one of my favorites of the hard stuff.. http://www.youtube.com/v/nWcnU-qx1vo This guy put out amazing records no one bought in the early 90's and is now a huge monster producer in his own right.
"Team Chemistry No Match for Team Biology" (Onion Sports Headline)
Check out Hank 3 ( hank williams grand son ) He goes from country to head banger. He is a major talent. The headbanger stuff is known as "Assjack"
I saw his show at the House of Bues. He actually does two sets, one country and then one punk but it is interesting because there is some mixing between the two bands. It was also the first time I have seen a mosh pit to country music.

If you listen carefully . He does some of his grandfathers stuff then his country songs of that type (old country style ). Then he progresses through country / rock.. He does early rockabilly then more contemporary country then does one of his fathers songs and his original contemporary country. Then his rocked out country then into rock. Then ends with assjack.
The show is sorta of a chronology of music.
For all you rockers who dont think much of country music. I bet the rockers you listen to know good country music and appreciate it and understand its relationship to rock music.

Classic country yes, modern country no. That is why guys like Hank Williams are in the Rockand Roll hall of fame, in there days therewas a very fin line between country and the development of rock and roll.

I qualified that with "good" country music There is some good contemporary country, just hard to find with all the generic crap that is out there. That actually goes for any music genre.

of course... I love old country, & 70s-era country-rock. Today's country is just pop music, the occasional good song comes out but ... mostly yawners... Rock came from country and blues, country came from blues and western music/bluegrass forms. Sorry to help hijack this thread, but I don't recognize the name of one modern rock band that was listed here, and sure haven't heard anything by them, that I know of.
Coheed and Cambria is good. I wouldn't really call them emo either. I'm also getting into She Wants Revenge. It's like techno rock meets Billy Idol. Strange stuff, my little sister gives me these cds and keeps me young.
