What Are You Listening to? Part 2

[Headphone Actor]

The take away from this is you should all go buy the Rites of Spring LP. It's still in print over at Dischord, and it's SO GOOD.

I've given them a listen, I like the band. I listen to Sunny Day Real Estate. I've been compiling all of the bands I like on Spotify. Hoping discover weekly gets me good stuff. I haven't heard Superchunk. Another thing for me to try out.

I'm always looking for new music in all sorts of genres. My favorite genres are industrial, prog metal, punk, rock, ska, and some other stuff. Since all of that is rather broad I'll throw some of my favorite bands into a list: The Birthday Massacre, Filth, G.G. Allin and the Murder Junkies, Silverstein, Dir En Grey, Lit, Distorted Memory, Bayside, Maximum the Hormone, Fugazi, Muramasa (Japanese ska band I really like), Misfits (liked em the most when danzig was still a member.. michale graves isn't bad though) and Scary Kids Scaring Kids.

If you like Fugazi you should try Embrace and then Minor Threat.

Majority Rule - Interviews With David Frost is the medicine you need.

[Josh]

punk

If you don't mind putting a pop in front of that check out my old band with forum member Type Ryan.

If you don't mind mostly covers recorded on a cassette machine check out my other old band with forum member Type Ryan.

Youtube has been trying to get me to listen to Tove Lo for a few years. I really like this one.

:0 I really liked both of those projects Josh. I don't mind covers or pop punk at all, cause at the end of the day it's just about playing and listening to what you like. Thanks for sharing. And feel free to share more like that as well.

I always like hearing new music, so I'm really glad that ya'll suggested so many good songs. I hope I can do the same xD

[Josh]

There is a Deckards LP coming out one of these days, allegedly. I'll bump the thread when appropriate.

Also nobody mentioned Something to Write Home About by The Get Up Kids.

Well, I guess Headphone Actor did.

[Josh]

I just assumed that when he said

Get Up Kids

he meant Something to Write Home About. It's a perfect album.
