Recommend a band

I’ve got a few eMusic credits left for the month, so I need some recommendations. I’m on the 100 credits / month plan and have used them all for 6 months.

Here’s the type of music I’m into, and for my recommendation to you… I’d suggest checking out Mono if you haven’t before.

   seibei said 10 months ago

   Glad to see Mono and Explosions in the Sky on your page (amongst other things) – I caught them live at a club in Kyoto a few years back (EITS opened for Mono) and it was amazing.

   I’d suggest Bonde Do Role, who are a fun Brazilian funk/rap/electronic act, though they might not be up your alley.

    I quickly scrolled though your list, so if I name something you already have, my bad. Here’s what I’ve been listening to recently:

    Heavier stuff: NEW Every Time I Die, NEW Baroness, Ed Gein, Stray From the Path

    Lighter stuff: So Many Dynamos, The Red Neck Manifesto, Portugal.The Man

    This girl from my school recommended them, I don’t think i have heard anything like it.

    oh, and im partial, but the new a wilhelm scream is insane

13. 

    ihearithurts said 10 months ago

    Thanks everybody… I’m going through the list now.

    @DCAY, I always meant to check out Ed Gein, and now that I have I’m totally into them. They even toured w/ my friends in Gaza. Too bad eMusic only has their older album it looks like.

14. 

    {miles to go} said 10 months ago

    somanydynamos are good, i havent heard them in a while. if you dig mono, do you listen to tristeza? originally it was some dudes from the locust and jimmy who went on to do album leaf, but its all instrumental and real good. check spine and sensory

15. 

    scottbot said 10 months ago

    the new dillinger is pretty good too.

    I thought Gein would be up your alley bro, and I didn’t see it in your list. I saw that tour with GAZA and had not checked them out (GAZA) til that show. They put on an excellent performance! You need to get the last Ed Gein album though.

    Fueled By Caleb said 10 months ago

    -The Graduate – Anyone that knows me, knows I love whoring out this band to people. Listen!

    -Four Year Strong – Pop & Hardcore…No, really!
    -Dear & The Headlights – Very chill. Very good.
    -Phantom Planet – Bringing it back.
    -Cobra Starship – Yes..I work for their label…I get it. BUT! This shit is super catchy.

    speed metal, maybe sometime but usually im watching tv/but when i design i tend to listen to the band alot to brainstorm, unless they suck, then i listen to as much as i can take. and go with the flow, but i dont sweat that to much.

    Mono is awesome. If you like them you should also check out Russian Circles, This Will Destroy You, Red Sparowes, and Caspian.

    Also check out Mr. Battle’s old band Die Rote Kapelle, and a local band Circus! Circus!

    I’d also recommend the new BTBAM album (colors) and the new Minus the Bear.
