Okay so we all know that pretty much everyone here, including myself, is a total music junky for the 70's rock older and newer..

So let's skip a few decades.. In your opinion, from the 90's til today, whats the best newest band that you really like?


For me my top 5 have gotta be

- Nickelback
- Three Days Grace
- Breaking Benjamin
- Copper
- Chevelle

Type O Negative
Lacuna Coil
In Flames
Ministry (goes back to the 80's - does that count?)
Disturbed

Sure 80's count... Disturbed good band, i have a cd of theirs, has prayer, stricken,etc on it. good stuff

Umphrey's McGee
System of a Down
Hiromi
Assembly of Dust

Disturbed is good but I've only heard their radio stuff, how's the rest of it?

Umphree's Mcgee is nasty. i think they're playing in Boston next month..

Disco Biscuits
Pearl Jam
Janes Addiction
Tool
Sublime
Blind Melon
Talking Heads

the rest of the stuff is pretty good. if you want pm me your email and i'll send you some songs -- i never pictured you as a SOAD kinda guy dave , pretty impressive :usd:


Disco Biscuits - never heard of them, same with Umphree's Mcgee :hidin:

Disturbed's first cd is fantastic, there's a good 6-7 songs that flat out rock. Havent listened to much of thier newer stuff though.

I went through my cds and these are the new acts (since 90s) whose stuff gets repeatedly played.
Neil Finn either on his own or with his brother Tim (The Finn Brothers).
Aimee Mann
Fountains of Wayne
Matthew Sweet
Gov't Mule

For jazz:
Richard Bona
Soulive
For Country:
Buddy Miller

Also big plug for Los Lobos, from the 80s I know, but still making great lps and an awesome live band.

Soulive :kewl:

Sister Hazel
Cast Iron Filter (irongrass -- check it out)
Liz Phair
Dave Matthews Band

Portishead's Dummy was an excellent record.

Haloburn (old 7th rail crew guys from Waltham)

I don't care what you listen too normally, Dave Mathews is amazing. I keep meaning up some of his stuff. Seems like every album is better than the last.

The Cat Empire - from Austrailia. Listen to "Sly" here : http://www.myspace.com/thecatempire.

Also like Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, Donovan Frankenreiter, and alot of the stuff they play on MVY.

As I was checking out the latest posts these guys came up on the itunes shuffle so I will give them a mention Belle & Sebastian. The cd is called Dear Catastrophe Waitress. It is indy and quirky but very enjoyable.

Carter Beauford ...amazing too... very tasteful ..

Great choice!.
One of my favorite Gym CD's

Listen to Waltham, hell, my girl went to high school with all those guys...they all live like 100 feet from here.
My buddy Dave (Frank's brother) was their original lead guitar...Frank and Dave are on tour right now with Seemless.
Mikey, Dave and Peet were in Jetfuel with Jet and Ben from SBC, too.
See all those guys around all the time.
Later,
Rick

Nice... very nice..

Skillet is another one of my favorite bands, may be Christian, but theres nothing wrong with that... still a good rocking band

Fallout Boy
Story of the Year

a few years ago, right before my freshman year of high school i spent 22 dollars on a dual set of cd's that would become some of the greatest cds i've ever bought, let alone listened to..

Metallica's S&M set.. where the band has the full orchestra behind them.. just sounds amazing, and even amplifies is a little bit. its really good ;)

Moonshine Still
Blue Ground Under Grass
Mood Cultivation Project

I've seen all 3 live and really like them.

SLAYER
ankla
brand new sin

Primus or any Les Claypool project

The Raconteurs
Zero Three
The Donnas
Collective Soul
Placebo
Fiona Apple
:grins:

usually whatever is on the radio...on whatever station (style) of music I feel like that day! My latest obsession has been korn & disturbed. But its nothing for me to change the cd and pop in the eagles........

Was a big Exodus fan back in the 80s and just yesterday a friend hooked me up with their last two albums Tempo of the Damned(04) and Shovel Headed Kill Machine(05).

Great Metal!!!!!!

That is if good Metal is your thing.

can't wait for the new WILCO.....
listen to Loose Fur++++.....Rilo Kieley (SP)

I miss Blind Melon....I miss Sublime....Both had their unique thing going on...I have a great acoustic version of change....Bad fish too for that matter....

:(

2 of my favorites :claps:

have that acoustic version of change in my cd player in the truck right now.

Badfish(sublime tribute band) is playing this month i believe. they're always a good time....

Stephen Marley
John Butler Trio

Fu Manchu
Sebadoh

I like the newest Guster disc too....

they play at the Ocean Mist from time to time Bart... :btu:

last semester my friend and i always used to listen to Sublime.. I had never heard them before.. good stuff like it a lot

they play at the Ocean Mist from time to time Bart... :btu:

yeah i've seen the flyers for them there. that would be a sick place to see them...

Massive Attack (or anything with Tracy Thorn on vocals)
Radiohead
Portishead
Depeche Mode
New Order
Tiefswartz
Swag

I like the newest Guster disc too....

I used to be a hardcore guster fan, but their stuff was MUCH different back then, that was before the drummer actulally started playing a drum kit - it was all bongos back then.
the new CD is decent, but not half as good as "lost and gone forever" for example, which was produced by Steve Lillywhite (who did the Dave Matthew's earlier CD's)

newer bands for me would be:
U2 (how can we forget them!!)
Guns and Roses
Velvet Revolver
Stone Temple Pilots
Rage Against the Machine
Audioslave
Foo Fighters
Dave Matthews
Radiohead

a great local rocker who got signed and moved to LA is a guy named Bleu
just great stuff, he won the BCN rumble in 02 I think.
Waltham rocks too....just kick your ass hard rock.

you can have the Dropkicks in my opinion, they are a bunch of screamers and noise makers, I think nobody really listens to them, they just go to shows to get drunk and party.

Sublime is a staple. You can only imagine where they would have gone had Bradley not died.

Rockport...can't believe you hate the Murphy's...yes they're noise makers, but I can't think of anything else I'd like to listen to when I work out on the heavy bag!
I'll tell my boys from Waltham you like them...I likem too! Just hate that they love Rick Springfield!
Bronko, big ups for the Sebadoh...used to buy bags from J in Amherst when Lou was playing bass for Dinosaur.
Mikey, lay off the Crusty Mustard!
Hear you were the lead singer!
"I Could Spend a Lifetime Smelling Ladies Underwear," was your magnum opus!
Later,
Rick

sorry Bomba, although I must say that I think the Dropkicks do have some musical chops and do well intergrating the irish sounds into the hard rock sound, there is only so much screaming I can take though

Dropkicks have their place and are fun, but not everyday listening music.
