Bands that sound like Lydia.

[Blaise&Panthia.]

Yes, it has taken me ages to finally getting around to listening to Illuminate, and now I absolutely love it.

Which bands sound similar? Educate me.

[Brand-new-123]

Lydia sounds like a less good Copeland.

copeland is the only thing that sounds even remotely similar that i can think of

[crypticv24]

Pompeii.

[punk89]

Well, one reason I'm such a fan of Lydia is because they have created a very unique sound. However, if you like Lydia, I think you'd enjoy Umbrellas. "City Lights" is a good song to start with.

These are the only ones I have on my iTunes at the moment.

[crypticv24]

This. Incredible band.

Definitely. "Rabbit Ears" has been one of my favorite songs for the past year.

The entire Nothing Happens For A Reason album is just so damn good. The title track is beautiful.

Copeland, Pompeii and Deas Vail are all superb bands and have similarities with Lydia. Some of my favourite bands.

Still haven't got around to checking out Barcelona.

I have their CD on my computer but have never gotten around to listening to it. This makes me realize how stupid that is.

I just listened to Pompeii b/c of this post (and anamericangod's approval of the post) and they are amazing. Thanks!

Fly Upright Kite


this. amazing band that does not get enough attention on this website.

[owiseone35]

Rookie of the Year, particularly Goodnight Moon. Really good CD and in the same vein as all the acts above.

[trevorshmevor]

I'm in complete agreement with Barcelona and Umbrellas, both incredible bands. Barcelona is phenomenal live, also.

In addition to those, a good few years back (when the AZ music scene was still thriving), there was a band called Goodbye Tomorrow. They self released a four song EP called Tied By Miles, you might be able to find it somewhere on the internet. If not, I can send it to you if you'd like. They did a couple demos with Mark Trombino too, which turned out great. They wound up getting signed to Equal Vision, and immediately following that, their singer quit and was replaced by Travis from Terminal. Things kept moving around, and the band somehow wound up with no remaining original members, so they changed their name to (also known today as) Alive In Wild Paint... another band I'd suggest to you. Not as good as GBT though.

[trevorshmevor]

Oh, and also, check out a band called Bear Hug. They're local in AZ as well.

[johnsk8847]

well, they arent really all that similar, but they have the female and male vocals going on...she screams remedy

[T-bag]

Kanye West.

[speed]

ANY band that strives to sound like Lydia are just as fucking lame AS Lydia.

Sappy, self loathing eargarbage.

[T-bag]

I concur.

[blebbio]

Kanye West is not punk.

[speed]

Kanye West is not punk.

Neither is this place.

But whatever.
