Yeap...
I need a little help from you lovely folks @ Hexus, inparticular the ones that like the "alternative" music scene.
Basically - as you may well know, I help my friend DJ on a Friday night and its getting hard to find the time to research new metal, rock, indie, emo, punk bands when your busy with work, CS and now WoW.
So - What new bands are pretty good, and whats songs are good that they've done ?
Once I have a comprehensive list I'll grab a few CD's from CDWOW
Thanks in advance...
Dj'ing with CD's ?
Get yer hands dirty, you cheat

Oh and I don't think my vinyl collection would go down a treat with the crowd thats usually in on a Friday, unless they happen to like House Music from the 1990's when it was GREAT
Agreed - some of the late 80's-early 90's House music was pretty decent.
Have you checked out Lacuna Coil they are Italian Rock... similar to Evanescence but better IMHO
If it's dance then you need Crystal Method
Either that or i'll suggest HIM and no-one seems to like them much on here

as a various selection
something corporate
bowling for soup (latest album is great)
disturbed (same as above)
soad's new album is very good
same for sum41 (its very grown up)
hughlunnon@yahoo.com | I have sigs turned off..
Mezmerize!!! Excellent album, especially Violent Pornography
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....
How bout Mouthwash? they're not new but they did recently do an interview on Radio 1 and i heard their first album 1,000 dreams, it's pretty good considering they're in their early 20s..
just a suggestion..
MC Hammer - You can't touch this
Twigman
what a quality song!
got the vinyl, tape and CD ... oh and baggy pants as well
How bout some old stuff?
like the Transplants, The impossibles, Spunge, Everclear.. that the kind of thing you're looking for? or do you need more of the new stuff?
In general anything new/old.
We have the major stuff like my chemical romance, spunge, SOAD, AC DC that sort of general but more less popular names would be ideal.
Nine Inch Nails?
PHP Code:$s = new signature();
$s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
Euro-metal is always good
eg:
Lacuna Coil
Nightwish
Sonata Arctica
Dragonland
but thats getting a bit unconventional
popular Emo atm seems to be bands like:
Jimmy eat world
Funeral for a friend
My Chemical Romance (urgh dont buy their CDs PLEASE)
Death Cab For Cutie
Depache Mode (bleh cant spell their name but you will be able to find them)
indie i'm not going to help you with, but it doesnt really matter as its all the same cr@p anyway
Take a look at www.roomthirteen.com for many other ideas, plenty of current 'alt-rock'/metal bands on there
