I require some assistance...

[Howard]

indie i'm not going to help you with, but it doesnt really matter as its all the same cr@p anyway

tbh.

Toy Dolls and Me First & the Gimme Gimme's are party essentials!
Toy Dolls 'Devil went down to Scunthorpe', or 'Nellie the Elephant' are end of the evening classics . Rupert the Bear as well.

[DavidM]

Hmmm - how about black lace?

Seriously - good for a laugh to finish off!

[Lee H]

My Chemical Romance (urgh dont buy their CDs PLEASE )

Heh they're not too bad. It could be worse, I could have Michael Bolton's greatest hits.

1 we did get asked for last night was Marliyn Manson's remix of Closer... so I'm going to see if this illusive mix can be found

[DavidM]

Failing that... his version of Tainted Love?

[headbrace]

Oh god no please, thats yet another example of butchering the classics.

Dresden Dolls ftw

Also worth checking out The Music.

Heh they're not too bad. It could be worse, I could have Michael Bolton's greatest hits.

they just cry into the mics but heh emo is funny emo-kids are even funnier

[RoGuE|SaBeR]

For a bit of Prog try Dream Theater. Everyone of their members is a virtuoso in their given talent and on one of their albums I'm told they wrote the entire thing down before picking up an instrument.

Their new album Octavarium is very good.

Yea same here (80-90% of my music collection is Rock, Prog, Post Rock etc, but I still listen to a bit of Aphex Twin or Boards of Canada from time to time)

Majority of stuff i have is rock....Aphex Twin are cool,haven't heard of Boards Of Canada, will check them out, i like all sorts of stuff tbh

Ooooh talking about older stuff... no one mentioned Adema, Godhead, Spineshank and Static X

[silent ben]

thats because static x only have 1 good song

[shelley bda]

thats because static x only have 1 good song

The video for Black And White was good too

[Apex]

Yeah we have most the SOAD and stuff like that covered.

Its the random stuff thats new and improved new, i.e last night someone asked for a band called Jack does Jill or something similar....

Jack off jill........

You could try some Tool, masterdon,killswitch engaged, nightwish, the distillers and fear factory for a starters

[Lee H]

Yeap he's got all the usual's like Tool, Killswitch Engage, Fear Factory, Distillers and stuff like that just the not so commonly heard of

Cheers for the suggestions - now he's got a list of about 20 names/albums to aquire

[herulach]

(hed)pe rock, particularly their first album, newer stuff is soso, Some probot, Dillenger escape plan, and if you want fairly random (no one i know irl has heard of them, but then again most of my mates are into stinking indie crap) then Boy Hits Car are fantastic, quite upbeat but still good for a nice mosh.

[Lee H]

Yeah... I've "borrowed" his Hed albums to "convert" for me to listen too occasionally Not too bad ( this is coming from a born again raver don't forget.... )

[Jonny M]

Thirding the Nightwish suggestions, just play Crownless and see what happens.
