Don`t You Just Hate It When ......
You ask people to recommend new bands that you might like & all they can come up with is bands that have been around for years or whatever happens to be flavour of the month at that moment.
Whatever happened to individuality. I`d love to get into some new bands , bands that are doing something different, of any genre .Pushing the boundaries of what music can be,bands who use music as art rather than just trying to flog their product to 15 year old emo kids. But I have a feeling I won`t hear that. I swear MTV was the worst thing ever to happen in music. |

meh, yeah mtv sucks if you want to hear anything new, but that's old news. Check the recomend a new band thread, yeah a lot of the bands listed have been around for a very long time, but you might see something you haven't heard yet.

Nope, not sarcastic, just that there's loads of bands who wont get a mention in magazines or get aired on tv or radio.. But yeah youve got music chatrooms and stuff, but thats my point; its still someone else telling you about the band.
