SCISSORS ON HIS HEAD

lol yeah I got some of them as well, since apparently Nathan from that band came up with the term nintendocore.

 

[Abalam]

Bjork
Coheed and Cambria
The Flaming Lips
The Gorillaz
King Crimson (to an extent)
The Mars Volta (though they are my favorite, their latest CD feels like it's moving away from what they set out to be)
The Prize Fighter Inferno
Radiohead
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Thom Yorke

all i can think of at the moment, though i dont know how much of this other people have actually heard o.O;

 

[Ecnemalas]

HORSE the band is great stuff. Cutsman is one cool song.

Oh and bands that no one else knows of? not really since I got most of my music taste from smogon in the first place!

 

[Charade]

Probably Can, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Herbie Hancock, Hawkwind, Television, Camel and, if Abalam can be trusted, King Crimson.

I'm sorry, but your list makes me lol. The only name on that list I've never heard is The Prize Fighter Inferno, and the only ones I don't listen to on a regular basis are Coheed and Cambria and King Crimson. The rest of those names are fucking huge, I mean, you don't think any of us have heard of Radiohead or RHCP? You should take a look around this forum a bit.

[DM]

hehehe gunther

ooooh you touch my tra la la....

ooooh my ding ding dong

lol most of them. (acceptance, jacks mannequin, mae, lifehouse, switchfoot no) i dunno thats what we call punk rock here in suburban new jersey. what would you consider them?

garbage, aka 3rd wave emo, aka post-punk trite/cliched nonsense, and Lifehouse and Switchfoot are neither, they're like post-grunge alt-rock, fucking terrible

and what would you call punk rock

old AFI, TSOL, The Vandals, etc.

 

[Echo]

dj dean
dj mangoo
dj mystik
gunther
skytran

trance.

Since people liked to critisize your list, I'll take part in that as well.

Calling Günther trance is like insulting trance to no end. Günther's music is dance/pop, yes, but there's a difference there. Not to mention that Günther is quiteful aweful.

 

[Undergamed]

Random Hand :)

i really, REALLY hate to be a fucking asshole here

yeah dude. to me, punk is bands like the germs, the casualties, the voids, eskorbito, etc. i grew up with street punk and that's what i think punk is.

 

[Altmer]

i would call dead kennedys, the misfits, the ramones and bad religion punk

 

[Trax]

Damnation A.D.

<smackdown>

[monkfish]

I know I am a stereotyped emo but not EVERYTHING I listen to is whiny pop punk:

Death From Above 1979
DJ Format/Abdominal
Enter Shikari
Fandangle
Fort Minor
Hundred Reasons
Less Than Jake
Protest The Hero
Reuben
Zebrahead

[Glen]

and what would you call punk rock

kinda late i guess

for street punk youve got stuff like the casualties, a global threat, whizkids, etc

for crust youve got discharge, amebix, aus-rotten (though some think they arent crust)

for pop punk (and i mean GOOD pop punk not the (BAN ME PLEASE)ry you see on mtv) youve got the falcon, none more black, lifetime

hardcore punk youve got bad brains, limp wrist, minor threat

dance punk has gems like black eyes, ex models, and fake shark - real zombie! (but a lot of dance punk nowadays is getting weird for the sake of sounding liek the blood brothers)

you have the oldschool stuff too like the ramones and the sex pistols and the clash, if youre into it

power violence kicks ass with bands like charles bronson, man is the bastard (hahaha i love that name), and ceremony

skatepunk... i dont listen to, ever, its really not my thing, so i cant really give you any examples of it

 

[Arcturus]

charles bronson <3<3<3<3

you can't forget spazz dude, or fuck on the beach
