I think Ayepod you must know my brother. Aren't you going to hype your own band The Shot heard around the world.



We are sadly no more. And I am doomed to play solos shows from now on. I say doomed but I love playing shows by myself,it's awesome.

Here are Malajube [Mah-Lah-Jewb]. If you like schizophrenic pop on drugs and candies. They unfortunately didn't put their new songs on the internet yet. They give a great live show and usually throw jellybeans to the crowd.

Local band, I'm friends with all the members.
Mostly acoustic sets, pretty good vocals.

I can say they'd go somewhere with the lead guitarist and the drummer, but the rest of them are expendable.

These guys are still in high school, but already very good.  http://www.thebroomhandles.co.nr/
That's their site.  Just click on the purevolume link.  Easy is easily one of their best songs. (No pun intended)

Two local bands I like:

http://music.myspace.com/deceptionpoint

This is Deception Point, a punk type band from the Butler area around Pittsburgh. I've seen them a few times, they're pretty good.

http://music.myspace.com/lumberghost

And this is LumberGhost. I only heard them once, but I think they're pretty good. They sound kinda like Peter Frampton.

OK I'd like to get some of the more knowledagble electronic music lovers on here's opinon. There's a local artist I know who records under redlymb http://  http://www.myspace.com/redlymb   I don't think it's half bad, but I mean I'm by no means an expert on the subject, your thoughts?

Ok a few really good Winnipeg groups

http://www.myspace.com/thepaperbacks

Saw them open for The Hold Steady, very great guys, very good music.

http://www.myspace.com/novillero

I saw them open for New Pornographers and they were great, in fact many people I talked to thought they were the highlight of the night.

Here are some bands from Leeds:

Birds of Delay - Noise. Good noise. East coast US tour soon I believe. Former Selah, current Woman and of course both are members of Birds of Prey.

Tigers - Ex/current members of Eiger, Canvas, Humanfly, Cowtown, Brown Owl, The Dragon Rapide, Double Six Flight Team, Action Everybody... basically, they've been about, know their stuff and want to sex you up.

Humanfly - Sadly, these tracks only showcase the previous, more hardcore 'fly. Not that this wasn't awesome but in the past year they've cut down on the vocals and are kicking ass in the big, sort of epic metal vein. Basically, the kind of band the likes of Pelican wish they were. These guys have been/are in Canvas, Tigers, Beecher, J*R, Birds of Prey, Das Double Muslin Machine and Last Good Sleep.

Red Stars Parade - Huge, crushing grooves are the staple of Red Stars Parade. Isis comparisons have been hurled around about them before but they're way off the mark, presumably made just because they both play long heavy songs (although Red Stars are a fair bit weightier than Isis). 'Disko' was easily one of the best UK albums of last year.

Duck Stab - Yet another Leeds band with a daft list of ex/current members. Driven Down, The Devils, Unicorn Love, Charlie Don't Surf, We Are Corpses, Broken Access, No Excuse, Dungeon Nun, Holy Crap! My Face!, Jupiter Lander, Motley Crudos... We're an incestuous city, hence our vast quantity of bands. Pissed-up fast and dirty hardcore.

Like A Kind of Matador - Eerily beautiful doom, courtesy of McWatt, Trees, Tigers, Birds of Prey, Rauschen, Red Right Hand people. There should be an album out on Tumult at some point.

Benjamin Wetherill - Last time I saw this man play he did two George Formby covers. A superb folk singer with a very distinctive voice.

D-Rail - Proof that having an absolutely godawful name doesn't stop you being a good band. These guys have been around for years but have only just gotten around to a debut album just out on Calculated Risk (also home to Humanfly). Metalcore the way it ought to sound, but most bands in the genre are too busy dressing up like tits to get the music right.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg really. Leeds is shite for a lot of things, but music is the one area we excel in.

Too bad Duck Stab don't break out the ultra extreme Avant that they took their name from. :D

but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.

Well, Ewan of Duck Stab (the one who named them) does have another band which is far more extreme and possibly avant (although I suck at proper usage of that term).

Local Montreal critics, both french and english, seem to have given their souls to Malajube lately, and after buying their records and seeing them live I have to agree. Other cool ones would be Karkwa.

Edit: Felix has already mentioned Malajube, my bad, but they still rock.

There's this guy I met at a coffee shop when I was playing an open mic who's really good, especially if you're into really early Bob Dylan.

I suppose Wolfmother count as a local band, though they've broken through to chart success.

Either way, the keyboard solo on "Mind's Eye" is great, in a cheesy sort of way.

Holy Crap. My hometown has actually produced a decent band (their live shows are pretty good, you notice that all of them were previously in brutal hardcore bands) which managed to score a record deal with a good label.
The Data Break. Oh so indie.

My bass teacher is the guitarist in the band. They are thrash metal, I suppose. Unfortunately for me they are moving to Portland Oregon in a few weeks. They are the best local band.

Finally went to see my friend's 8-piece band, The Superficial Heroes, the other week. Their genre is "skacore/punk" and they were pretty good! (Probably would have been even better if the bassist wasn't drunk)

They've only got one song recorded at the moment, which can be found here --> http://www.myspace.com/thesuperficialheroes

(Ignore the part before the song actually starts. It's just some chav that they put on as a way of showing him just how stupid he sounds)

This band's in Berkshire County, Massachusetts. One of my friends got guitar lessons from one of the band members. I went to a couple of their shows and now I'm hooked. They play some happy music. Pretty Shins, Chutes Too Narrow. Really good. I highly recomend them.
