Okay, I don't even listen to rap/hip hop/whatever and I recoginized like 10 names in there. Don't just post your whole song list dumbass.

 

[rocadelpunk]

ah blood brothers are my favorite band :0.

She shacked up with the wrong surgeon
Doctor! Doctor!
What have you done?
She slept beneath a blanket of scalpels
and woke up with skin like fingernails.
Doctor! Doctor!
What pleasure do you crave when sex lacks passion?
When the hospital lights are dimmed low?
This knife cut fashion lacks compassion,
but who says being an abomination of human cartilage isn't a statement?
Now cover girl, your cover up drips like dairy.
When I see you, walking by yourself,
I wanna cut the corners off your lips,
I wanna shave the angles off your cheeks,
I wanna wash the geometry off your face.
Those cosmetics run, run, run like ivory blood burns.
You keep coming back to get fvcked on the operating table.
You keep coming back a different shade of nauseating.
It's time to take that face back to the bank
and count the cash you really make.
Pennies, doctor, pennies!

---------

You hold each other by well groomed hands,
mumbling prayers to a neglected jesus.
The matradees quiver as they watch you shiver as the mask
and the mouth knit into each other.
Our laughter was deafining but our lips
but our lips but our lips were trembling.
Now the lady with the peacock mask,
is writhing around in broken monicle glass,
imprisoned like a beetle laying on it's back,
and the man striped up and clawed calico like a cat,
is trapped forever looking like that.
"all your luxury, all your well hidden trash,
all your empty wine bottles disguised as class,
all the bastard children you pay off,
all the money it takes for you to get off.

The Hooters

 

[rocadelpunk]

I've listened to pretty much all of effowe's list.

I'm a hip hop head too, just didn't feel like making my list any bigger heh.

edit: no love for boston scene it seems?

mr. lif? Akrobatic? Perceptionists.. : (

 

[aplefka]

I dunno, Morcheeba is one I just finally checked out and I like them. Ummm Brand New, but they got famous with Deja Entendu. Fall Out Boy just got huge with Cork Tree.

But, The Myriad, I'm sure no one else from here has heard of them unless they saw the thread I posted. They're an indie band, pretty damn good. Either here or here to check them out.

 

[Steve]

My Winamp just switched over to Joy Division

 

[jds2006]

Moonpools and Caterpillars

 

[UglyCasanova]

Thread I started with links to a buncha songs.

 

[MichaelD]

Mary Beats Jane.

Thrash metal from Sweden. They only released two albums. They no longer exist.

Think Anthrax meets Celtic Frost meets Jackyl meets Black Sabbath on speed.

 

[Ronstang]

The Suburbs
The Kings
20/20
Josie Cotton
The Beat
The Plimsouls
The Swimming Pool Qs

Not sure how to classify their music. I guess it's alternative.

I've heard of them before, but not in a good 5-6 years.

Yeah, they split up after the El Oso album. Doughty still does stuff though.

Yeah I know, and Dangerdoom is actually a really good album. The promo is out there. Anyways there are a few things in that list that I forgot to edit out, like the Wu and Twista.

Saying that Flogging Molly is a band that no one has heard of is LIE... they have SO many wannabe Irish cvnts as fans, but I wish that I had never heard them... /cringe /unclean after their music hit my ears.

such an underrated band, but I love them. i'll have to scope some others on your list if you like those guys.

For myself:

Lawrence Arms
Brand New
Hot Rod Circuit
Delta Activity

And just because these guys deserve WAY more street cred, Alkaline Trio. They whoop any modern Punk Rock band hands down. Don't dog on Crimson, they are showing that they can do THAT sound as well... and do it better than anyone else.
