I'm partially new
 

hey, I'm relatively new to the forum and I notice that there is a pretty generic community on here with people who seem to know each other, and I just want to get to know everyone on the Hardcore & Emo subforum. So far I am incredibly joyous to find a community on the web that actually knows something about the music. I found a crappy little forum before called "House of Emo" that was a total joke, in fact, they actually didn't have a music section, only a fashion section, it sickened me on the inside :( . Anyway, just want to get to know everyone, maybe get to know more about everyones musical tastes. Please don't kill me that this may or may not be in the right place on this forum, I'm trying here.

What be some of your favorite bands mr. new meat?

City of Caterpillar, Pg.99, Eaves, Flashbulb Memory, Circle Takes The Square, Envy, Hot Cross, (recently) Malady, Reversal of Man, Verse en Coma, Saetia, the list goes on, I'm typical and I tend to jump around taste.

I don't like it when people are exclusive..let's hope that changes eventually...welcome...;)

good point, but thanks. :D

I'm sure with enough time here his tastes will broaden, mine sure as hell have.

that being said, any suggestions?

As far as emo goes, not really, unless you've listened to Hobis and The Birds Are Spies They Report To The Trees, which are two of my favorites. I've been more into folk stuff lately like Okkervil River, Bishop Allen, Page France Dustin kensrue and Rocky Votolato.

well I've heard of Okkervil River, they are pretty good, but the others I will definitely look for thanks ;)

hey im new here too! hi im adam and extremely bored at work

ha XD, what about you adam, what do you listen to?

I like this dude fo' srrs

why, only good music of course :D

....naming of some bands would be tolerable. Just sayin'.

welcome maximstark and amplific =D.
if you would like to experiment with a plethora of bands you probably havent heard of go to this site. music |. Basically its a more organized version of "emo sharing thread" sticky.

thanks for that link, Im definitely gonna be spending a day or two downing all of it, so far I like the whole community, widely accepting and generous, and Snickers seems to have either A: had a list prepared for wherever this question would be asked or B: has a lot of time and puts a lot of though into music oriented questions :laughing:

I didn't pay attention to Snickers list, but some of my favorite emo/screamo bands are:

Versoma
Cap'n Jazz
love like... electrocution
Amanda Woodward
Daniel Striped Tiger
Kite Flying Society

But hey, don't push it, I was just recommending some good stuff!

im familiar with 95% of the music on that link! good stuff!!!

You're lucky. I have a horrible internet connection, and I've been downloading off of that site for about two weeks now and only have a fraction of the music downloaded. But I guess this gives me time to absorb all of the great new music before moving on to a new album. Otherwise I would have a music overload. Actually, I'm still kinda getting it.

oh yah! but tonight ive been enjoying some
Frank Zappa
Bis
These Arms are Snakes
old Hot Hot Heat
On The Might of Princes
Tunes for Bears to Dance to
and some Basement Jaxx now.

i'll just copy+paste some stuff from myspace.

i listen to pretty much anything, mostly bands within the hardcore scene (this includes mathcore, emo, and screamo, and not the kind with tight pants and *** vocals), metal would run a close second, and indie a third.

awesome, AWESOME band. the recent reissues of the making of a conversation and of where you are... are essential purchases.

not trying to offend! just a joke :p: I like the fact that everyone is putting so much time into listing out their favorite bands, its a show of dedication to taste. :thumb:

noise is the new emo, guys. Listen to wolf eyes!

i have some Masonna, Merzbow and Gerigerogegege here, would you happen to have any C.C.C.C.

naw dude I can't find **** by them anywhere. :(

Some noise is tolerable, but is definitely not the new emo.

to paraphrase masami akita, if noise is defined as an unpleasant sound, then the new emo is noise to me.

What emo are you talking, exactly?

you know, the "emo" emo, stuff that isn't emo, but kids still force into everyone's ears. that's my idea of harsh noise. i'd take 30 minutes of Masonna opposed to 3:30 scene crap.

Word, Masonna is ace.

One of my friends does some pretty good stuff, he goes by RedSK, check him out.
Another guy from England that's buddies with him is pretty sweet as well, Analog Skyscraper.

are they on Myspace/PV?

oh yeah, since we're talking about noise, here's a little something i did a while back.

www.myspace.com/redsknoise

And, I will give that a listen.

awesome, brah. XD
