    Default What bands do you wish everyone would listen to?

    Im one of those assholes that in the 80's and 90's gave everyone a mixtape with the words "These bands will change your life" after CD's became household I started making mixed cd's to send to friends.

    Now I just email a list and say "go download this"

    So what bands do you wish people would give a chance?

    My download list:

    1. IAMX
    2. The Veils
    3. Soko
    4. Kidz in the hall
    5. New Young Pony Club
    6. CSS
    7. Clear Static
    8. Delta 5
    9. Yelle
    10. Junior boys

    Yay for your 5, 6, 9!! I wouldn't say I love them or anything, but they're fun!

    I need Tori, Bjork, Three Days Grace. But I'm not a super huge fan of any one group. I get IN LOVE with individual songs moreso than whole bands/groups.

    Quoted for the truth. The Black Keys will be at Lolla this year!

    Black Label Society, hands down my #1 favorite!
    Bleed For Me and 13 Years of Grief are so hot to dance to it's unreal (at least for me), In This River is a beautiful song, Rust is awesome, basically all their songs are wonderful. My Fiance introduced me to them about 2 years ago and I've been a die hard fan ever since.

    Yup.. love that band.. they sound great live, and I have a thing for acoustic guitars and the sax. Excellent roadtrip music.

    We Smoke Fags and the Teenagers are totally on my "amusing novelty band" list. I was just wondering the other day what Tricky was doing lately. It seems like it's been a while.

    I have been listening to old Pavement records this week so I'm going to say everyone should listen to them. Oh, and the Thinking Fellers Union Local 282. I miss them.

    But pretty much I don't think everyone should listen to the same artists at all. That would be a really boring world to live in. And then the indie/emo girls in that other album thread wouldn't be able to look down on other people for liking other bands.

    I would also like to add The Dearhunter to my list.

    And on a side note...BREATHE CAROLINA GOT SIGNED YESTERDAY!

    I got home and it looked like the scene had exploded in a massive orgy of cellabratory bulletins on my MySpace. So in true emo fashion, I ganked their new layout and plastered it across my page, lol.
