    Default Recommend a band

    This is a thread in my attempt to add life to this section This thread is to show off bands you know that might interest others, just a few ground rules though

    1. Try to make sure that you don't do a band that is already up
    2. Opinions about bands are welcomed (gives other people a more varied idea about them)
    3. Try to note the genre of the band (I know this might annoy some people )
    4. expanding on rule 3, have the band set like this

    ________________

    Name/Country/Genre - Website

    Your take (if you want to, you can just include basic info)
    ________________

    I'll start for example

    Porcupine Tree/England/Progressive-Ambient-Experimental www.porcupinetree.com

    This band is a very chilled out band and got a lot more heavier in their later albums, certainly recommended for people who appreciate lighter stuff (crap review I know but yeah)

    You don't listen to rap/hiphop if you don't listen to Wu-Tang.

    Bit Brigade. From my hometown of Athens, GA. They play speedruns of NES games projected behind them and the band plays the soundtrack. They have done Contra, Castlevania 1 and 3, Mega Man 2, Ninja Gaiden, and Legend of Zelda. Some of you may have seen them at MAGfest or PAX East. You should definitely check them out. https://www.facebook.com/bitbrigade or search their YouTube videos to actually see the stunning performances. The live shows are incredible.

    Solitude Aeturnus (Texas/USA)
    http://www.eternalsolitude.com/
    80's doom metal


    A remarkable yet tragically under-rated doom band. Fans of Candlemass know what to expect, mid/slow tempo crushing riffs and highly operatic male vocals. Strongly recommended for metalheads, doomsters and any fan of mid tempo music.

    The Queers, New Hampshire, USA.

    *points at signature*

    A brilliant little pop-punk band on Asian Man (which is totally cool). They're alot like the Ramones, only less edgy. Punk for the fun of it, and whatnot. They recently released a new album which I have yet to listen to, but I'm sure it's just as sweet as the rest of their music. If not, I'll cry and stuff.

    I don't know you, you're not my friend.

    I'm full of good ideas..

    Funeral Throne - Black Metal - Wolverhampton, England

    http://www.myspace.com/nfbm (Only a myspace, I think the site is down )

    Total whoring for the sake of getting this band a bit more around but yeah I've seen them live and even got a demo off them (in my opinion some demo stuff totally kicks the ass of some "albums") but yeah they have an album coming up soon enough which I would like to see
