Hmmmm, Rock/hip hop/experimental. I have no idea what genre to put my band in. we are a bit of everything. When we play live we tend to be a bit heavier. Have a listen if you want.

Ah i feel like a dirty whore now.
May 7, 2009 at 1:39 am #96444ChumleyParticipantWell, my previous responses are now horribly outdated. I’m in a much better band at the moment, we do essentially do whatever seems like a good idea at the time. We have on tune recorded, but we’re going to record an EP within a month or two. And for the record, our singer is white as hell.

yea, it’s a lot of fun to play energetic stuff like the hives and franz ferdinand, and other similar bands.
November 2, 2009 at 6:17 am #103125firesgt911MemberI play a lot of Grunge/Blues/Alternative/Punk type stuff. Like a mixture of Smashing Pumpkins(Main Influence, but only Gish/SD era), The White Stripes(I dig the bluesy over the top fuzz), Nirvana and Rancid. It is what feels most natural to me, maybe because that was the music of my teens.
But…I play a lot of nu-metal/lame/whiny crap too. Unfortunately, if I want to play with my group of friends in a band situation, this is what I have to do. Not really my cup of tea, but it is a good time to get together with friends. Bullet For My Valentine type stuff is probably the most tolerable for me.
RANT ON**
Flame away if you guys want, but when I play metal, I think we should be singing about tough things. Things like war blowing arms of and demons coming from hell to conquer humanity. I am a little bothered by some music that sounds like good heavy metal, until you realize the guy is singing about being depressed over his girlfriend dumping him. Hell, I’m divorced after a long crappy marriage, but I realized real quick how awesome it was, because now I have twice as much money to spend on gear! I am not going to sing about the darkest depths of my sorrow. I mean grow a pair. You are shredding like the late Mr. Abbott, but whining at the same time??? I just don’t get it.
RANT OFF**Anyways…sorry for the rant.

When you say progressive rock do you mean like early 70’s yes/peter gabriel era genesis style?
no, sorry… i’m more of a modern music listener… i mean more of a Porcupine tree style
some call it a neo-prog rock… i think that it’s useless since someday those prefixes like neo will either pile up or we’ll run out of them
