while we're on the metalcore subject, anyone like BURST or STARKWEATHER?

I used to have the first album by Burst. It was pretty good. It didn't blow me away or anything.
 
Prey on Life is a seriously cool, unconventional record that improves with time, though I'm not so fond of the new one. Starkweather I know very little about except that the members of Converge are big fans (and if that isn't a recommendation I don't know what is).

My top metalcore bands at this perticular moment: Keelhaul, Swarm of the Lotus and Crowpath.

ive only heard gogol bordello and andrew bird and they both kinda sucked imho :I

wtf andrew bird pwns ur mom... get his most recent "mysterious production of eggs", it's totally different from his other stuff... definately listen to menomema and frog eyes. you'll dig those. frog eyes sounds like trippy production-based indierock mixed with mid-80s tom waits, dunno if you're a waits fan. and listen to Joanna Newsom, i know you like girl singers, and she's teh best.


more girl singers that own


jolie holland - escondida
gillian welch and david rawlings - previval
laura veirs - carbon glacier
mirah - to all we stretch the open arm

I won't deny that there are bands I will forever say are complete crap, as I think there is a line to be drawn somewhere (I think in most cases its pretty obvious, mostly in mainstream bands that take a good genre, simplify it, and strip it of everything it stood for to make money), but I try my best to be open minded about music. I'm not going to completely crap on a genre if I haven't even taken time to look into it further than what MTV portrays it as. I mean the mainstream thinks of Disturbed as what metal is, so it should be pretty safe to assume that they have done the same thing to other genres as well, including emo.


Yeah, I know what you're saying. I find myself thinking the same way sometimes.

Great stuff. Close to the Edge is also amazing (as the next person said). I'm listening to it right now.

Tom Waits is one of a kind in so many ways. His dark works are just flat out haunting in a way I can't even describe.
