Basically I'm looking for some new music to listen to, because I'm bored to death with everything I'm already listening to, so reccommend the bands that you like and think are worthy of the honor of being listened to by me. Just so you know the kinda stuff I like, the bands I've been listening to for a while are Incubus, AFI, Cave-In, Queens of the Stone Age, System of a Down, Rx Bandits, Audiovent, and Cursive. Interest me, please.

We have an old saying down on the bayou....Blehhhhh!!!

Interpol is pretty sweet, they sound a lot like Joy Division. The Strokes are coming out with a new album, I've heard a couple songs and it's good. There is this band a friend of mine is in called American Head Charge, it is a little Slayeresque, but solid.

 
Weakerthans

The Shins

The Decemberists

Commander of the Silent Army

Viva La Resistance!

I hate Modest Mouse. My g/f loves Modest Mouse. The shins are opening?

Jrich... what else you listen to? Beachwood, Jim O'Rourke, Belle & Sebastien, Stereolab, My Bloody, SOngs:Ohia, Mojave 3, Polyphonic, Sea and Cake, Delgados, Mogwai????

Pavement is my favorite, I love Modest Mouse - I think people group them into that emo shit, and it is not like that, I compare them more to the Pixies (who are sweet), Loveless by My Bloody Valentine is good, Yo La Tengo, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club (The Jesus and Mary Chain),and this SF band called Swell.

 
Yeah, Thrice is good for sure, and I've heard a lot of those bands, but I haven't heard a lot of those bands too, so I'll give 'em a try. Thanks a mill homeys.

people can rattle off names of sweet bands (the millhouse kid knows what he's talking about), but are you really going to listen to them?

 
oh, i didn't see your last post. Lately ive been quite a bit of godspeed. they're pretty.. slow? i dunno, maybe youd like them, then again maybe not.

 
I was going to go see Silver Mt... last weekend with Broadcast but didn't... Pavement is great. I don't group Modest Mouse with emo, I just think it's obnoxious, to each their own.... Godspeed is good. Saw Yo La, with Portastatic and Daniel Johnston (haha) a few months back, great show.... I'm getting drugged and going to see Ween in a couple weeks too, should be fun.

i think their sound has become very boring. and i hate the dudes in it, especially because that one is banging carmen electra.

 
Zebrahead is the shit. The Salads rock. Check out Billy Talent. And Finch is pretty good too.

No one on their death bed has ever said 'I wish I had played it safe'
 
Stuff ive been listening to lately is Elbow, new john mayer cd, story of the year, the leaves, marilyn manson's new cd, porcupine tree, a perfect circle's new one, howie day's new cd, and of course radiohead.. lotta new good cds out

I really like Sleater-Kinney, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Rapture, Le Tigre, The Kills, my friend Craig Cardiff (if you can't find his album in stores, there is some stuff on Kazaa) and Sahara Hotnights.

 
ive been listening to built to spill lately. cortez the killer is a sick song. anything by them is smooth.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i sure would like to rest ... but the energy gets the best of me. its been a wild ride i wouldnt change a minute i cant slow down inside guess thats why i live it

-311-

Supersuckers, Rocket from the Crypt, The Dragons, Riverboat Gamblers. for the most part, thats just your basic rock and fuckin roll. now for something great, check out Drive like Jehu or The Hot Snakes. matter of fact, anything from swami is pretty damn good.go Reis!

Built to Spill is pretty sweet, Cortez the Killer is a Neil Young song,I saw Built to Spill cover it, it was insane.

 
Carry the Zero, by Built to Spill is a great fuckin song. And while were on it, Neil Young is a fuckin great cat too....

Flabiscus I just saw Modest Mouse and the Shins in San Fran, and it was great. The lead singer of MM lost his voice during the first of 3 shows, but luckily I went to the last one and he ripped. I've seen em 6 times and they are insane.

 
At the Drive In

The Contantines

Good bands...
