Favourite Bands

The silliness is some of the best stuff. I like their silly and “serious” stuff. But have you heard Stalk of Wheat? Those lyrics are pushing it, but the song is so cool.

Re: Of A Revolution

i’m so glad someone has heard of them! yes, crazy game of poker is perhaps my favorite song of all time. ive listened to it hundreds of times (literally). They play it every morning on the school announcements at my high school, and sometimes during the 5 minutes between classes. (The seniors get to choose what goes on the morning announcements). Its basically our school’s fight song hehe

wow that makes me so happy. i havent been into the whole electronic scene for that long, but it certainly is great. i saw squarepusher play in DC, which was amazing, especially since him playing in the US is so rare. anyways, i cant say i know much good electronic outside of what either of us has named, so if you have any other suggestions they would be greatly appreciated. the genre of electronica has some great stuff and a lot of crap, so its kinda hard to find the best stuff. but i cant imagine anything could be better than mr. jenkinson.

HAS NO ONE HEARD OF SUBLIME???

Yes, and with Don’t Let’s Start one of there all time classics with lyrics like ‘wake up and smell the cat food in your bank account’ and ‘deputydogdogadingdangdepadepa deputydogdogadingdangdepadepade’ it makes no sense but its just so damn catchy.

Phallic Alec and the Hairy Jerrys
Frank Zappa/The Mothers
Tom Waits
Wall of Voodoo/Stan Ridgeway
GWAR
Devo

Who says no one has heard of them? This is a thread about favorite bands, perhaps sublime just isn’t anyone’s favorite band. Personally, i own their self titled, and enjoy a listen or two on occasion, but they really aren’t anything special.

Sublime

One of my favorites, but I thought we were supposed to limit it to like 5 bands… Otherwise, I’d have a 10 page post :wink:
40oz to Freedom is required owning :smiley:

Every jumbled pile of person has a thinking part that wonders what the part that isn’t thinking isn’t thinking of.

My personal favorite.

sublime

arent anything special?

arent anything special?

Re: sublime

LED ZEPPELIN!

AFI,
Less Than Jake,
Green Day,
The House Jacks,
Cream
1 song by Evanesence, all the rest is crap.

Re: sublime

simply, none of the above.
I never said i do not like Sublime, I just said that I did’t see anything special about them. They’re a whole lot better than most of the bands out there, but it really wasn’t too revolutionary, it was just a ska/punk band gone mainstream.

NIRVANA!!!
bush
rage against the machine
modest mouse
death cab for cutie
the smashing pumpkins
tenacious D

No one here has more Nirvana cds than I do.

mike

Modest mouse
Jimi Hendrix
ACDC
Sublime
Ooklah the moc
Rolling stones
Grateful dead
Led zeppelin
CCR
the list goes on…

so i’m not the only one who likes modest mouse? holy crap. who else was into them before “float on” was put on mtv?

anyone else listen to The Postal Service

the postal service kicks ass
death cab for cutie is very similar. I am pretty sure it is the same lead singer.

I listened to modest mouse before “float on”. I is so weird to see modest mouse blowing up for sooo many years they where just this small seattle band and now VH1? badger have you heard their latest song “ocean breaths salty” it is alot better than float on.

WOW!! I just realized how the local seattle scene is kinda back on the radio/TV

has anyone here heard of Vendetta Red?

mike

I fucking hate Vendetta Red, they were tagged onto 5 shows I went to last year they are horrible.
