[ben pequeno]

[ghostyouare]

Sweet, I recommended that.

[ben pequeno]

the song "Out Of My Head" is getting tons of play around here lately.

[cahrishurr]

stfu, they're better than cute is what we aim for.

oh burned

[piaffeprncess98]

I just listened to Permanent Me. Good stuff. I also recommend The Prize Fight who I am listening to right now and also checking out some of the photos I am in the process of posting right now in the Live Pictures forum.

[Ailite]

I recommend AFI, Faster Than Fashion, and some good old Spider-Man. Vindicated still owns my soul.

Also, Head Autamatica, The Omen, and Cars.

[romantic rights]

i recommened shooting your neighbords and roommates dogs so they wont wake you up when you are trying to sleep.

[simplymusic]

coheed and cambria - the A favor house atlantic acoustic version from the xfm sessions. its on their myspace www.myspace.com/coheedandcambria

i also recommend not being screwed by your local record store who inexplicably don't have "in with the out crowd" while all other stores of the same chain in the region apparently do.

[st shellay]

I COMPLETELY recommend The Sleeping!
I saw them last night for the first time in over a year and a half and I forgot how amazing they were.
(I saw them on The Taking Back Sunday/Fall Out Boy-before they were big/Matchbook Romance tour in October 2004).

[Nate_RAWKS]

Kevin Devine - Split The County, Split The Street

http://www.yelims.com/IPB/Invision-Board-France-161.gif


I recommend Saves the Day Sound the Alarm because i'm in love with it and it seems like quite a few people aren't feelin' it:
Here are the Soundscan results for this past week (and total sold).
Saves the Day - Sound the Alarm: 1,633 (39,414)
Oh well to each is own. :shrugs: i guess....

&

NoFX Wolves In Wolves' Clothing

It's like seeing a car crash from inside the car
The driver's got his head craned back he's telling you a joke
You see the bus on collision course
You point your arm and turn your head and wait for the impact
This is the feeling we learn to live with in North America
The morning headlines always accompanied with sweat and nausea
Every week another puzzle piece gets permanently glued into place

We see the iceberg from 15 miles away
The captain orders the ship to "stay the course"
"Full speed ahead" shouts the accurst
The next thing we heard was, "rich women and children first"
The ship is listing, the captain's placing blame on the iceberg
"That berg attacked us, I am declaring war on the Arctic"
Who could ever have predicted the greatest ship could so easily sink (duh)


awesome......

[InaGreendase]

Everyone listen to Capital (http://www.myspace.com/capitallihc) for incredible melodic punk rock, go bother someone to send you the new Sinking Ships (http://myspace.com/sinkingships) (but not me), and then drink about 14 liquid pounds of the Flavor Aid because even the first mewithoutYou (http://www.mewithoutyou.com/) album is pretty awesome.

i also recommend not being screwed by your local record store who inexplicably don't have "in with the out crowd" while all other stores of the same chain in the region apparently do.

Thank them for saving you 13 dollars.

Also, many local record stores just don't bother with major labels. While I usually think that's kinda silly, it's totally appropriate in this case.

stfu, they're better than cute is what we aim for.

Regurgitating my own bile and then ingesting it is better than Cute Is What We Aim For.

[As Derrick Rust]

Blackpool Lights, Gracer and Audible.

[Shatter_Glass]

stfu, they're better than cute is what we aim for.

*Lame Band Fight

[Nate_RAWKS]

Blackpool Lights

I saw them open up for Angels And Airwaves and they put on a great show.

I know they turned me into a fan for sure.

[ben pequeno]

[elemenohpe]

stfu, they're better than cute is what we aim for.

much better

[byebyebeautiful]

beirut - jeremy barnes (neutral milk hotel drummer) plays on it. zach condon is nineteen and amazing.
robert nanna's threadless jingles - go to www.threadless.com, click on a shirt design, and listen to a jingle that bob nanna (braid, hey mercedes, the city on film) wrote about it. i fucking love them.
smog - listen to "a hit." it has some of the best lyrics i have ever heard.
the mountain goats - to everyone graduating this year, listen to "this year."
wilco - i would kill to write a song like "bob dylan's 49th beard."

xoxo conor

[dukeboy1986]

I recommend Jonah Matranga's There's a Lot in Here, full of great songs from his project and Blackpool LIghts and the new Forecast album. That is all.

[zizou1790]

stfu, they're better than cute is what we aim for.

haha thats your opinion im actually basing my opinion of the sleeping on that stupid victory commercial for them thats on fuse which is unfair so i guess ill give them another chance...

[fight4urdemons]

These are my first recs so be gentle and check them all out, because they all deserve it...


Weezer - I cannot stress enough how much I love this band. They don't seem to get that much love on this site, and they should. Rivers Cuomo is one of the most honest and cleverest lyricists around and I can relate to him and his writing so much. It's Summer; pull out Blue and Green and rock out like a geek.

Jawbreaker - Blake Schwarzenbach can do no wrong. He is, for my money, the best lyricist in teh world. This band made the kind of "emo" tinged punk rock that has you singing along, only to floor you with the most ingenious line and your jaw just hangs in the air. Everything they put out is fantastic. If you have anything buy them, whip it out. If not, I urge you to buy something.

Death Cab For Cutie - I don't really need to explain them to anyone. Just to say that this band is so talented and special. That Ben Gibbard has the most beautiful voice. That you need them in your life.

Duke Special - This is a local musician who has just signed with V2 records (same label as Bloc Party) and he's becoming very big. He's a solo musician and you HAVE to check him out. He plays this old-fashioned kind of antique-indie fusion. It's so difficult to describe. I saw him last week in Belfast and he blew the house down. Often using nothing more than a piano, some strings and a wisk and cheese gratter (actually) he creates the most beautiful heartbreaking music. He's special.. duh. Check him out at www.myspace.com/dukespecial (http://www.myspace.com/dukespecial)


Well, that's it. I hope there's at least something there that interests you. I'd also like to give a big shout out to the new Snow Patrol, because they've grown on this record, and it's really stunning stuff. Have a great Sunday guys and gals!



- Rick

[zizou1790]

I recomend the new matches songs coming out on comps before the record.

are those comps out yet? if so where can i get one?

[FeynmanWannabe]

I'm too lazy for full descriptions this morning. Sorry. All quality recommendations, though.

Patrick Wolf (http://www.absolutepunk.net/myspace.com/officialpatrickwolf) "Wind in the Wires" - it's been dubbed by some what Conor Oberst tried to do with Digital Ash; new release expected this summer

Amy Millan (http://myspace.com/amymillan) "Honey From The Tombs" - just released, a bluegrass-inspired affair from the female vocalist of Stars

The Light Footwork (http://www.absolutepunk.net/myspace.com/thelightfootwork) "One State Two State - criminally unknown indie rock

Andrew Bird's Bowl of Fire (http://www.bowloffire.com/albums.htm) "Oh! The Grandeur" - retro swing, anyone? distinct from his more recent solo stuff, but definitely worth the listen

[Tony Pascarella]

My last rec is absolutely near-orgasmic. The encore last night ruled so hard. Andrew played "Punk Rock Princess" alone on piano, and then full-band covers of Tom Petty's "American Girl" and the Everly Brothers' "Dream" with Tom from CIWWAF as guest drummer on the last one.

Black Heart Procession pwns. Good job Frank.

[ben pequeno]

Black Heart Procession pwns. Good job Trevor. i fixed it for you.

[FeynmanWannabe]

You listen to good music. I bought Josh Ritter because of you.Word. Thanks a lot. It feels great to have someone like your recommendation almost as much as you do. As you can see in my sig, Josh Ritter remains my favorite album of the year so far.

i like the amy milan rec i didnt realize she had a new band after stars, thanksThis album is essentially a solo album, although a few guest voices seem to appear throughout the album. It's not so much a clean pop record (ie. Stars) as it is more of a whiskey/broken heart bluegrass album. Good stuff, though.

[ben pequeno]

josh ritter is ok...not album of the year.

[bradyreier]

blink-182 - enema of the state
afi - decemberunderground
the hush sound - like vines
thom yorke - the eraser

[FeynmanWannabe]

josh ritter is ok...not album of the year. That's why my list is entitled "Favorite albums of '06" rather than something like "Best of '06". I don't pretend to listen to the best stuff by any stretch, just what I like. Josh Ritter is an intensely personal album for my, more so than virtually any other album I've heard.

wow, sweet stuff.
and i had no idea about andrew bird's side project.
that's pretty sweet.

[Burnout2888]

I cannot stop listening to the Third Eye Blind self titled. Throwback, yes, but I picked this album up a long time ago and never really gave it the time of day until about two weeks ago. Such a great album.

Also, am I the only one who thinks the new AFI is terrible?

[MasonR5]

i recommend the motherfucking new Forecast album...and if you like Bright Eyes, give a listen to Nathan Asher and the Infantry...myspace.com/nathanasher

[Nate_RAWKS]

I really like seeing all the love for the new Forecast album.

Such an excellent album.....

[cht9989]

"do the whirlwind" -architecture in helsinki
"wow, i can get sexual too" -say anything
"tropical-iceland" -the fiery furnaces

architecture in helsinki is such an awesome band

[Aileen]

Def Leppard
oh hell yes i'll second this

catching the vh1 rock honors on tv late last night threw me into a mood for metal and i'm not really complaining about it

[Mitch]

I recommend:

Thom Yorke - The Eraser
Blackpool Lights - This Town's Disaster
Halifax - The Inevitability of a Strange World
The Forecast - In The Shadow of Two Gunmen
Magyar Posse - Random Avenger
Mogwai - Mr. Beast

I got this CD on your recommendation... and I can hear why people would love it... But for some reason, I just can't seem to get into all that much. I've been trying. I think "Girl in the war" is one of the best single songs I've heard this year, but the rest of the album for me is just not doing it... i want to get it, but i don't...:unsure:

[FourStarters]

so, how are we gonna listen to this?

Go download Something Corporate's "Heroine". It's the old piano version of "Punk Rock Princess" with just Andrew solo.

Something Corporate - "Heroine" (http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=AC852F165811FC80)

Something Corporate - "Heroine" (http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=AC852F165811FC80) no thanks.

[Jamie Pham]

building a better me by dogwood is one of the best cds ever

[ben pequeno]

'punk rock princess' is a stupid song.

[Smithers]

My last rec is absolutely near-orgasmic. The encore last night ruled so hard. Andrew played "Punk Rock Princess" alone on piano, and then full-band covers of Tom Petty's "American Girl" and the Everly Brothers' "Dream" with Tom from CIWWAF as guest drummer on the last one.

that was the same as the NYC show, only with 21 and Invincible. why they have to tour w/ fucking OAR this summer i have no idea.

oh, and i recommend Reclaim the Fallen. outstanding stuff. www.myspace.com/reclaimthefallen

[tomwk]

'punk rock princess' is a stupid song.
but dude, it says if some girl can by my "punk rock princess" than i can be her ONE and ONLY "garage band king," and who doesnt want to be that?

[FourStarters]

no thanks.
Then don't bitch about not being able to hear his recommendation. I did all of the hard work for you.

[ben pequeno]

Then don't bitch about not being able to hear his recommendation. I did all of the hard work for you. i didn't bitch.

[dekdog11]

i was scared to say hey lol

[totallysweat]

ewww The Sleeping sucks

The Sleeping DOES suck, and thier singer is a dick.

[totallysweat]

I recommend:

Thom Yorke - The Eraser
Blackpool Lights - This Town's Disaster
Halifax - The Inevitability of a Strange World
The Forecast - In The Shadow of Two Gunmen
Magyar Posse - Random Avenger
Mogwai - Mr. Beast

You should be ashamed of yourself for reccomending Halifax and Mogwai in the same post.

[ben pequeno]

You should be ashamed of yourself for reccomending Halifax and Mogwai in the same post. you should be ashamed for your spelling.

[GreenJellyBean]

The Sleeping DOES suck, and thier singer is a dick.

actually he's really nice and hilarious. sucks if you had a bad encounter with him.

anyway, i recommend:
promise of redemption.
youinseries.
self against city.

[alcoholandirony]

I recommend US Funk Team

catchy indie rock a'la Modest Mouse and the pixies

www.myspace.com/funkteam (http://www.myspace.com/funkteam)

and Liam and Me

www.myspace.com/liamandme

[splutton]

I <3 sunday recs!

[theredline]

I Recomend:

The Sounds Of Animals Fighting
The Classic Crime
Run Kid Run
Chiodos
The new Zao will kill people
Trophy Scars

[sweetforever]

AFI - Decemberunderground
Angels and Airwaves - We Don't Need To Whisper
Goo Goo Dolls - Let Love In
Lydia - This December; It's One More and I'm Free ( I'm in love with this cd. Excellent cd to listen to on late night drives around town)

[ForeverInADay]

i recommened shooting your neighbords and roommates dogs so they wont wake you up when you are trying to sleep.
I recommend that as well, except it was my puppy who woke me up at 6:30AM after I had gone to bed an hour prior to that.

I also recommend catching the Cancer Bats live, they never disappoint, and Liam is way funny.

[Chris Immunity]

You should be ashamed of yourself for reccomending Halifax and Mogwai in the same post.

if i wasn't too lazy to make a sig.. it would look almost exactly like yours.

except NOFX. and i'd probably put either I DO PERCIEVE or NO GOOD FOR NO ONE NOW

good job.

[Kelley Nicole]

i like the amy milan rec i didnt realize she had a new band after stars, thanks

?? She doesn't have a new band after Stars. She's doing this little solo thing because she's had these songs kicking around for six or more years, but that's about it. She used to be ina a band called 16 Tons who played stuff similiar to HFTT, so yeah.

I recommend James Figurine - Mistake Mistake Mistake Mistake Mistake and watching Scrubs. I've been watching the first three seasons pretty much nonstop lately.

[abusedcat]

I recomend the new matches songs coming out on comps before the record. I also recomend Overview (http://www.myspace.com/overview)Overview rule. Their new stuff is insane, as is their older stuff. They're fun to party with. Anywho, I recommend SMALLPAUL (http://www.myspace.com/smallpaul). Good hardcore.

[ForeverInADay]

Also, listen to Go It Alone, Sinking Ships, Blue Monday, Ruiner and Snake Eyes

[irishpunk14]

Edison Glass is good.

[KB3RG]

check out Chiodos if you havent
Valencia is a good band
The Drama Summer - Biased but I think they are pretty good, fun bunch of guys
The Heart of Juliet Jones
Inamere

[hubbabubbal3ts]

I cannot stop listening to the Third Eye Blind self titled. Throwback, yes, but I picked this album up a long time ago and never really gave it the time of day until about two weeks ago. Such a great album.

Also, am I the only one who thinks the new AFI is terrible?

Your life is now better because you have begun to appreciate the greatness that is third eye blind.

and no, you aren't the only one who thinks the new afi is horrible. i hate it.

[Tony Pascarella]

i saw you there tony!
i was scared to say hey lolCome up and say hi next time. I must have spent 25-30 minutes talking to someone else who stopped me and talked to me about AP.net...so it's cool. Generally I don't go to shows with a whole bunch of people because if I get tickets for free, I only get one extra and all my other friends are cheap-asses. So I'm always up for hanging out with whoever wants to come up and say hi since I'm there with 2 other people maximum.

[hubbabubbal3ts]

Here's what I have been listening to a lot this week.

Acceptance-Black Lines To Battlefields.
Driver F-Not Home Yet. I thought I outgrew ska music in the 6th grade, but not with Driver F. These guys make it sound so good. www.myspace.com/driverf check it out
Third Eye Blind-Self Titled.
The Snake The Cross The Crown-LIke A Moth Before A Flame.
Radiohead-OK Computer.

[Awei]

I recommend trophy scars, genghis tron, and 65daysofstatic.

all of those bands you mentioned suck.

[dekdog11]

also, 93002 was on some comp a while back. i guess the guys didn't know anything about it. haha.
