Well, only for Queen. :D I have never really deep into heavy rock legends like Led Zepplin, Metallica, Ac/DC...and the likes. I mean, I love each respectively. And many songs have just blown me away. Like ... Black Dog. Or Communication Breakdown...many other songs too. No need to list em all :stunned: But that's just it.. It has only been one or two songs from the legends that have managed to catch my ear and entertain it fully. But what I don't understand is while I sit here listening to Queen, (Live At Wembley '86 ..Thank you bunches, Sniggirb/Briggins) :kiss: ...anyway, While I sit here listening to every track on the playlist of Queen... I c…

According to the following article from Rolling Stone magazine, the Live8 dvd will feature the whole Coldplay performance in Hyde Park ! Live 8 Gets Four-Part DVD Set features "Sgt. Pepper" duet, Pink Floyd reunion and more A four-disc DVD set of the nine international concerts held on July 2nd as part of Live 8, an initiative organized by Bob Geldof to pressure the G8 to address extreme poverty in Africa, will be released on November 8th.

Has anybody heard of Ours before? I'm sure somebody here has.

I first heard her on myspace http://www.myspace.com/gretchenlieberum where the song GRACE found me in love and CAN YOU HEAR ME? crushed me. Then I checked out her website http://www.gretchenmusic.com and KEY LARGO showed me this is a woman with a style all her own and then I bought the record at http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/lieberum where about 99% of the reviews were 5 star and discovered some of the best music on the record in her songs OPUS and THE FALL and YOU CLOSER. SIREN SONGS, her record, is freaking HOT.

Ok, I know there are a million posts about muse. Sorry if this adds one more. I just felt the need to share with many people this review of Muse's latest cd. Now, I'm sure I havent heard the best quality of this cd, but its pretty good quality. I honestly only got into muse in the past year. I discovered Absolution last summer when I borrowed it from my friend. I listened to that cd almost every day during the summer. I was stupid not to look for their other cds until months later. I got Showbiz first, and I was somewhat disappointed only because it was different, but it grew on me very very fast. I then got Origin of Symmetry, and when I heard new born for the first time…

Ok, here's the question: If you were to make a compilation of music from today for somebody who knows near to nothing about music, what would you include? :thinking: :) Oh and try to add a bit of variety...not like "coldplay, coldplay, keane, coldplay, embrace, coldplay, keane...etc" :D

Sigur Ros! i couldnt find a thread about this amazing band, i bought their latest album Takk (Thank you) on Sunday and ive been absoloutly addicted to it since then, the album puts you in some kind of Trance you dont wanna come out of, the only bad thing about it is that it ends... If you would able to see Their music, you will see heaven. So any other fans out there?

:cool:

Thought I'd let you know about a great new indie band called The Perishers. They've appeared on The OC soundtrack so you may have heard of them already. They have been compared to Snow Patrol, Keane and Longview. Please check out their MySpace at: http://www.myspace.com/theperishers Would also be good to meet you on the band's forum, at http://phorum.nettwerk.com/theperishers/list.php?1 The 1st single is to be “Trouble Sleeping” and will be released on 17th April 2006. The song can be heard on the My Space site and the video can be viewed here: http://mfile.akamai.com/1689/wmv/bmguk.download.akamai.com/1689/Perishers/trouble_sleeping/Perishers_HIGH.wmv http…

YOUNG Island band Skyline Heroes has hit the heights after securing the opening slot on the final day of the Nokia IW Festival by winning the final of the Medina Battle of the Bands competition. The talented four-piece will be rubbing shoulders with Coldplay, Richard Ashcroft and Lou Reed at Seaclose, Newport, on Sunday, June 11. After performing to a sell-out crowd of about 350 at the Medina Theatre last Friday, the combo will feel more at home when they play to the massive festival crowd. Pop-punk influenced Skyline Heroes, which comprises 17-year-old high school students Danny Knox, of Cowes (drums), Lucas Hardy, Medina, and Ben Gourlay, Carisbrooke (guitar an…
