*Shutters*

And there's an always an elitist who comes along thinking they are high and mighty just because they listen to obscure music...

How about sparing us the snippy comments and just give the guy what he was asking for?

Re: Rock/ALT./Indie recommendation thread

I'll throw out some of my favorites and a song from them in this category and try to stay away from screamo...


Taking Back Sunday - 'Cute Without the E'

Thousand Foot Krutch - 'Art of Breaking'

Anberlin - 'Ready Fuels'

The Classic Crime - 'The Fight'

Brand New - 'Seventy Time Seven'

Skillet - 'Savior'

Breaking Benjamin - 'Follow'

The Wedding - 'Wake the Regiment'




Thats just a few for now. Didn't really put too much though into it but hopefully it'll get you in the right direction.

Tool - Amazing band...10000 days their new CD is coming out in a couple of weeks. Probably my favorite group.

Ryan Adams - Very underrated singer/songwriter/everything. Classified as alt-country but pretty diverse style.

Re: Rock/ALT./Indie recommendation thread

The song played at the beginning of Inside Man.

Re: Rock/ALT./Indie recommendation thread

Sounds to me like your rock tastes are pretty mainstream, so you should check out Buckcherry's new album, "15." Straight-ahead crunchy rock with a ballad tossed in.

Take care,
PK

Re: Rock/ALT./Indie recommendation thread

*Shutters*

You need new shutters for your house? Or is that the name of a new band or album?

If you're going to be a smart-azz, at least learn how to spell the word properly.

Take care,
PK
