Band Swapping Thread

[The_Return]

So this is something that I do with a couple of my friends all the time. Simple as anything, but it works well.

Post a couple bands that you listen to, but dont think many people are familliar with. New, old...anything. Ive discovered alot of great bands this way.

I'll start:

- Buck 65

- The Coasters (ok so Im sure folks would know them, but I never hear them mentioned around here)

- Tapes n' Tapes (Just started listening to these guys tonight...so far, pretty cool)

Obsolete: Local band really should check these guys out they recently had some band member changes http://www.myspace.com/obsoleteq check them out here

Mindless self indulgence: very few people have heard of them so check them out their kind of a techno/rap/punk mix

thats wild ... in Canada they are one of the most popular bands of all time.

i dont expect anyone to know them outside canada but they did break out into the US back in the 70's - 80's ..

i guess the younger gen wouldnt really know of them these days

I dont think so. My band is WAAAY hotter than yours. Not an even trade. BNice butt, though.


Oh, wait, you said BAND. Sorry.

[Despare]

Band names and quick genre if I HAD to catagorize.

Kenny Wayne Sheppard - Rock (GREAT Voodoo Child instrumental among other things)

Stiff Little Fingers - Rock/Punk

Meat Puppets - Grunge

Operation Ivy - Punk

Royce Da 5'9" - Rap

The Zutons - Alt/Rock

Wylie Gustafson - Country/Yodeling


It all depends on the age and group really, some people I know don't know who Pennywise or Sublime are and others haven't heard Our Lady Peace, The Toadies, or KRS One.

I guess there are a lot of bands I think you should check out, since I'm in australia and most of you aren't,

you wiil probably find them on my space if no where else,

whopping Big Naughty - dirty pub rock and a bit catchy,

Sounds Like Sunset - swooning shoegazer style pop, live they are distructivley loud


Bluebottle kiss - One of the most beutiffull and harsh bands at different times, I have been following these guys for ten years, they're live shows are the best on a consistent level of energy I have ever seen.

[Disease]

I just put on this album, they where my favorite australian band untill they broke up, they sound a bit like shellac and fit in with all the post rock scene.

Ricaine, they are great they existed between 95 - 2002, try and get your hands on their first album,

"Regret is an inevitable consequence of life" - Ricaine


They will blow you away......
