A good band is a band that you enjoy listening to.

Whether it be for the sound, the lyrics, etc is a different matter.



If you like Slightly Stoopid you know of Sublime I presume??

The single absolute best band to have existed. Hands down, no questions asked.

i realy enjoy lostening to billy talent, and linkoln park. just if anyone wanted to know

Yesssss I went to the Death Cab for Cutie concert yesterday. They were pretty darn amazing, but I dunno... There wasn't as much ambiance as I'd been looking forward to. Still, it was fun.

My friend recently told me about PlayRadioPlay!... and I absolutely love them. They make me happy. Woohoo!!

hmm I have never heard of PlayRadioPlay or Cutie

I like almost all kinds of music... Mostley Pop rock and punk, but other stuff to

My favourite bands are: My Cemical Romance, LostProphets, Panic! at the disco, Good Charlotte, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Goo Goo Dolls, The Rasmus

I like other stuff to, Like the soundtraks from The Phantom Of the opera movie THose songs are just so beautiful!! Gerard Butler's voice is just amazing! Other people who like The Phantom Of The Opera?

-Elover

Well, I'm always hearing my favourit bands: Good Charlotte, Green Day,Red Hot Chili Pepers, The Offspring, The Strokes, Panic! at th disco, Blink 182, Dido, McFly, Eminem, Shakira, No Doubt...
But I've hearing so much Lily Allen, Christina Aguilera and Norah Jones these days.

I also got the Devil wears prada album (good junk there, nice musicality) and the Isis and Heavy Heavy Low Low releases.

Good stuff.

-- Thomas

Aaah... the only song I've heard by The Number 12 Looks like You is their version of My Sharona... it's pretty darn good, I'm not going to lie.
I've never really liked My Chemical Romance all that much, but I'm really liking the new CD. You can listen to the entire disk on their website... it's pretty cool, actually.

i have recently found out about a band called Rediscover. they're song, Do You Think makes me laugh so much, and another song, Kiss Me makes me smile

so i saw this short clip of them in concert, the singer [i think his name is Wes Quinonez, correct me if im wrong] has a good voice.

Listen here

Yea, Rediscover is pretty rad.

Their EP was free for downlaod on their Purevolume.

Fall_out_Girl, I checked Rediscover out, and I'm liking it a lot They're kind of like Hellogoodbye, only REALLY not... but like them too.
Thanks for linking them

yes they are! yeah they sort of sound like Hellogoodbye, emphasis on 'sort of'. but not really, i dont know, i like Rediscover better. your welcome

i am sooooon going to buy Call Me When You Get This, but i want to know how many songs are on there. they shall soon be my new Fall Out Boy hehe...no im joking. i will like Fall Out Boy forever, even *if* all the fake fans start to push them into a dark corner of their minds

I have all kinds of music that i listen too. Growing up in the 80's the era of big hair bands, and valley girl music, I would have to say that I love Guns N Roses, Cinderella, Metallica, Poison, Motley crue and Warrant.
I also like old school rap such as Snooop Dogg, Dr Dre, Icecube and Sir Mixalot.
Todays music oh there are so many that i like, Green Day, Weezer, Bowling for Soup, Ciara, Shakira, Eminem, Nickelback, Coldplay and so many more. I just love music and if its a good song and has a good beat then I'll listen to it. Don't care much for country though its so depressing!

what else?
.......
some songs i love;

finch: three simple words

inme: firefly

ime: under rose

billy talent: the suffering

muse.... in general

fall out boy: a little less than sixteen candles, a little more (touch me)

fall out boy: get busy living or get busy dying..... etc

aiden: die romantic

aiden: knife blood nightmare


Mod Edit: Excessives are unnecessary and break the page. Your post has been edited accordingly.

so like a couple days ago i got Taking Back Sunday's Tell All Your Friends. and i must say, im in love with it! it had two bonus tracks, also. i love "Timberwolves At New Jersey" but the music video for it is weird but the song is wonderful.

and Fall Out Boy's new song, "Carpel Tunnel of Love", is awesome!

My favourite bands are:

Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, Trivium, Metallica, Frank Sinatra, HIM, Slayer, Dragonforce, Marilyin Manson.

I love

A.F.I.
The Who
Nirvana
Evanescence
Death Cab for Cutie
Breaking Benjamin
Avenged Sevenfold (sometimes)
Linkin Park (When I'm in the mood)

Fall_out_Girl, I'm listening to Carpel Tunnel of Love right now It doesn't really seem like their type of song, but it's still pretty darn good, I'm going to lie.

I think I've mentioned them before, but I absolutely love the band PlayRadioPlay!. My favorite songs are Jello and Even Fairy Tale Characters Would be Jealous...
Oooooh and the song Mash Up by Fall Out Boy and Gym Class Heroes=ultimate greatness.

yes i know, Carpel Tunnel of Love=greatness.

new album! Infinity On High [out February 6, 2007!].

and they have another song called "This Ain't A Scene, It's an Arms Race". you can listen to it by going to friendsorenemies.com!

Wow... This Ain't A Scene, It's an Arms Race is so... different from the usual Fall Out Boy. Their new album should be interesting! It's different, but still good. Just a different good.Yeah.

Anyone like The Hush Sound? I just heard them todayon purevolume. I really liked Sweet Tangerine by them

wow!
having read some of the lists on everyone's posts, i think i am pretty out of the music loop.

anyhoo, i'm more of an oldie goldies fan myself. from the 50's through the 80's. can't we consider the 80's oldies by now?
if you open my cd player, you will find, Boston and Simon & Garfunkel.
although i can turn on the radio, and groove ( ) to whatever is on, except for rap. i just can't get into that.
so there you have it!

I love listening to Show tunes the most, but I also like bands that are foreign to me like The Birthdya Massacre, Nightwish, Leaves' Eyes, L'ame Immortelle, and more. I'm also a sucker for jazz and swing dance music since I play Trumpet. I don't really like today's mainstream music like Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, and Things like that. But if you like them, than I don't mind. Just my personal opinion.

well...today i went to walmart.

and i got Decemberunderground by A.F.I.

hm, i like it so far, i'm still on track 9, and so far i like Summer Shudder the best.

I love showtunes and jazz as well. I'm more of a jazz kind of girl, even though I couldn't play it to save my life.
My favorite jazz musician is Benny Goodman. I also love Duke Ellington.

Fall Out Boy.....I honestly have no words to describe the emense hatred I feel towards them (and every single 'emo' band out there). I'll just leave it at that.

I also love Hanson. And other Fansons around here?? No? Alright then.
Some of my favorite bands/artists are, Keane, Coldplay, Franz Ferdinand, Bjork, Emiliana Torrini, Radiohead.....you get the idea

Amazing!

I like Benny Goodman because he plays clarinet. Sing, Sing, Sing is a fun one. I also have some strange hatred toward Fall Out Boy. What exactly is a Fall Out Boy? Has anyone ever asked them that?

I was a Hanson fan way back when. MmmBop is always fun. And Franz Ferdinand....aah.

I also have a weird liking for Christmas music...

^ Yay another Benny Goodman fan! I went to a flea market a few months ago and stocked up on some amazing vintage records. Benny Goodman was among them. I absolutely love it. It's got a great (seems to be extended) version of Sing Sing Sing on it.

Haha, I have no idea what a Fall Out Boy is. It's probably something stupid that I'll never get

Have you heard Hanson's new stuff? Much better than Mmmbop

Christmas music is great. I'm actually listening to it now. Bing Crosby does some of my very favorite Christmas songs. I had a strange obsession with the song White Christmas when I was little.

hahaha...Fall Out Boy got their name from a fan, little did they know it was a character on this one show.

well anyways..."someone" [he knows who he is ]is getting me into My Chemical Romance. that is why i have requested some CDs from my cousins for Christmas. or New Year's actually, i dont celebrate Christmas with them, it's rather my mom's side of the family, they're from my dad's.

and i heard some of All Time Low's songs on myspace, so i'm interested in buying some of their CDs. which is only two, if i am correct.

That's actually pretty cool that they got their name from a fan. I dont know if any other bands have had that happen, but I've never heard of it before. Thanks for explaining it Although, I still dont really know what a Fall Out Boy is, lol.

fall out boy ( like a reactor fall out, nuclear explosion...) is a comic figure out of the Simpsons...there is a comic of radioactive man and fall out boy that the kids are reading.

but i got to say that´s not my kind of music...i´m sorry... i´m a singer myself and have high expectation of other musicians.

i love to get to know new bands (i´m sort of that independent label junky)...i was the first one, at my school, knowing about bands like the hives or franz ferdinand(these are actually my favourite bands...i was visiting concerts of both and i loved it!)
i adore jazz, swing and blues as well (i was singing that music for about 4 1/2 years myself.
at the moment i´m practicing opera stuff...

wow i never knew that it was a figure from the simpsons.

ohh dont worry tiggerlily i dont like that kind of music...but now people know and they might want to jump me for saying that



I was the first at school...as far as i know to listen to AFI!!!!!
I dont really have any favorite type of music it just depends on the song.

Ah yes. The Simpsons. I think I remember all that now. Thanks!

I love indie music. Although, I hate using the term "indie" as a genre, because that really isn't correct. Indie isn't a genre, it's a way of life.
Anyways, my favorite indie band is in fact, Hanson. Yes. They're indie.
I also love Stephen Fretwell, Emiliana Torrini, and The Long Winters. I've stumbled across some amazing indie bands from the UK. I dont know if you've heard of them or not. There's, Dead World Leaders and Avangaad. A fabulous American one is the band, Afterall. Oh man. Amazing stuff.

I would post links, but I dont know if I can do that on here or not. So. I'll wait

by using that word i just meant discovering new and unknown bands...
that´s hudge fun!...( i first saw the rakes opening up for franz ferdinand and noone could tell me anything about them...so i have to search myself and that´s what i love about it...)

i´ve read about some of the bands you´ve mentioned but i don´t have any cd of them.
i think you´ve got a fine taste in music

Oh, I wasn't accusing you of using the term wrong. I was just making a statement

I always hate it when I like a band and no one else has ever heard of them. It gets kind of lonely, lol. I try and get people into these bands, but they're just too close minded and wont take the time. I hate that.

Speaking of bands no one's heard of, do you know Starsailor? I love those guys. I know they aren't an indie band, but most people have never heard of them.

I love soooo many bands I can't name them all...here is a few...

My Chemical Romance
Lost Prophets
Simple Plan
Aiden
Blink 182
Sum 41
Greenday
Linkin Park
Evanscence
The Killers
The Kooks
The Feeling....

God I like a lot and there is sooo much more...

@Jezebel: of cause i know Starsailor ( weren´t they german?!)...nice piece of music!
do you know gods of blitz... cause they are absolutly great too... maybe we ( you and me )could PM .... talking about music...if you want to just let me know!


i´m somehow obsessed with getting to know all kinds of music... i just want to hear everything because music, not blood, is running through my veins...

i couldn´t list all the bands i like in here...maybe one of every genre

i don´t know what this whole EMO thing is about?!
when you ask this bands (fall out boy, AFI, my chemical romance,...)
they all deny to be EMO...that makes me so confused, i´ll may understand it!

#tigerlily#- Check your PM box

Yeah, I really dont understand the whole emo thing. All these kids are calling themelves emo and acting lke it's this brand new fad, when in actuality it's been around for quite a while. The "real" emos will tell you all about it.
I dont think I could ever explain what it truly is. Only because I think the definition has become a little sordid, lol.
Emo bands will slowly die out. Hopefully soon.

I like my chemical romance but I'm not emo...no really I'm not...I like other singers/bands including:

Kelly Clarkson
Pink
franz ferdinand


To be honest I like just about EVERY type of music there is EVEN some classicals (I've shocked myself ) I like some R 'n' B, rap, all sorts really...maybe its because my dad is a DJ... lol

Hehe, I belive you that you're not emo. I'll admit I kind of like AFI, and I'm definately no emo.
Ooo Marylin Manson is another artist I love. I think he's fabulous.

It's good that you like so many different kinds of music. I love anything except for rap. *shudders*. I'll admit though, that Eminem and Kanye West are two of my guilty pleasures
I love opera and classical music as well.

That's cool your dad is a dj!

Contrary to popular belief, "Emo" does not mean 'emotional.' According to my brother, who is what we call "Emo" (he's even got the haircut ), Emo means 'Emotive Hardcore." And that's why bands are sometimes labeled as "emo-core." So all the kids that sit around and cry and whine and cut themselves when they know they really don't want to die, aren't emo. They are just...sad.

Heehee...just found this definition on urbandictionary.com:
4. Emo
Like a Goth, only much less dark and much more Harry Potter.

And if you go to urbandictionary.com and type in emo, if you scroll down to definition 6, you'll get the correct definition, along with some other fun things on that page. I'll just (link)[edit] it. Actually, upon review of that link, it may be a little PG-13 or above. So, if you want to really see it, you can search it. If you have trouble, you can PM me.

So, now that we've had a nice music lesson, on to the real music!!

I've never really considered "emo" as a music genre... but that's what people call the kind of music I listen to... I dunno.

Fall_Out_Girl, I have the All Time Low CD!! Err... I don't really remember what it's called, and it's upstairs, so I'm not going to go get it right now (too lazy ) but it only has 7 songs I think... But they're amazing songs, I'm not going to lie.

As for MCR... My friend got it for me for Christmas! Now I have to wait till the 25th though.

MyBroomstickIsBetterThanYours, awesome! i want it, i found them on...well i guess you can guess...myspace. Coffee Shop Sountrack is cool

to all those who think emo is not a style, i agree. oh i went on urbandictionary.com and typed in "emo", and what it says that emo is not, is all the things a huge huge group at my school are like. they say they love tight tight pants, have hair that covers most of their face, and most of that junk.

Haha, I heard of All Time Low... because I bought the Warped Tour compilation disc, and Coffee Shop Soundtrack is on it. Obviously loved it automatically.

I agree with what you're saying about the whole emo thing... it's more like a label.

thanks for explaining to me...
because now, finally i know what emo is!!!

i really laught about the definition by urbandictionary.com
this thread is about the music that we like... i´m sorry if i said something wrong.
i never wanted to judge anyone or anything!

#tigerlily#, I'm sure no one took anything you might've said offensively (I know I didn't) because it's your opinion... you can't really change that. No worries.

I'm not going to lie, I listen to what some people call "emo music", but I recently have found that I really like some of the stuff from Justin Timberlake's CD I dislike rap (a lot), and usually "hip hop" stuff too... but it's just good stuff.

^Hey, I'll admit as well that I kind of like JT's new stuff. Some of it anyways. It's catchy. Another guilty pleasure, as it were .

i like to listen to AFI, panic @ the disco,teddy geiger, fall out boy, hawthorne heights, artic monkeys, green day, ashley parker angel, red hot chillie pepper, the-all americain rejects, justin, and flyleaf

My favorite type of music is Hip Hop and R&B. I like a bit of pop and rock, but am not much of an expert when it comes to naming artists in that genre. I guess I like a bit of all music except like heavy metal, techno, and rap. My favorite artists currently are Chris Brown and Beyonce. I especially love Beyonce's recent song irreplaceable. That is like the girl's national anthem at my school.

Its all about Rock music. I'm into Punk Rock and Metal. I could list many bands but I wont. I really think you should listen to this genre if you havent before.

I have.... a bit. But its just not my style. Where I grew up, it was, and still is, all about hip hop. BET is what everybody watches and I just love their music. I do like some songs from My Chemical Romance and Green Day, if that really counts in your genre.

I enjoy listening to punk bands. I'm not really familiar with any specific ones, but I know that what I've heard I like
I dont care for Metal though. I really have never gotten into that genre.
