Direct Hit just bores me to death. As do Off With Their Heads. There needs to be less bands that sound like this.

hurumph I think Off With Their Heads is better than Spraynard; haven't seen Spraynard live though. For some reason I'm really digging the new Black Wine Summer of Indifference album. Nice mix of vocals, change of tempo in song selection and melodies. I'm pumped to hear the upcoming Nothingtons album.......they put on a great show and have their roots down. Edit: Yea they really hosed up Private Eye drat didn't think it could be possible punxnbutter fucked around with this message at 05:39 on Jul 10, 2011 |

Dickeye posted:Video isn't for Now That We're Alone, isn't as good as it could be. I'm with you. That album is unnecessary and stupid. Acoustic rerecordings hardly ever pan out, with the exception of maybe reel big fish (who I don't even really like anymore), Smoke or fire, and Jeff Ott. Stupid phasey effects and echo aren't gonna make your simple pop punkish songs more engaging or endearing while played kinda sorta acoustically. They even completely buttfucked "Radio" which I always sorta considered one of their most memorable songs. "mercy me" also got a dirty scab covered fist right up the poo poo pipe. Honestly though, I think almost like the Violent Femmes cover. Sharon is Karen fucked around with this message at 09:55 on Jul 10, 2011 |

I've listened to "Living Dead" every day, multiple times a day, for the past couple months, because it's super rad. I don't even know what the song is about, but my day goes sour if I don't hear it. If you don't like Direct Hit! You're a little jerk, and my inner Frank McCallister will always hate you for spilling lovely flat pepsi on rad.

How did they ruin "Radio" gently caress that!, Although to be honest I prefer the Hot Water Music covers of "Radio" and "Bleeder" to the original. I guess it's sort of related to this thread, but I just listened to the preview for Brian Fallon's new project the horrible crowe's and I'm excited to see how that turns out, but I'm a huge whore for anything he does.

Listening to Alkaline Trio after they released Good Mourning is loving pointless. Youre just going to be let down every time.

On the topic of Jawbreaker, I'm finally starting to get into them (Bivouac is great), but I still say the first two Jets to Brazil albums are better than anything they ever did. *ducks*

God drat am I ever loving the new Basement album.. Check out a few tracks here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Basement/149200562988 , since as far as I can tell, on Myspace there are only demo versions of song off of it.

So I've never really bothered with this part of the forums before and I guess its the place to ask for recommendations... I've been into punk for ages but I've kind of lost track ever since I stopped playing in a band and stopped regularly hanging out with people in the local scene over the last few years. gently caress I hate punk scenes. Anyway, I haven't really got into many new bands over the last 5 years or so, apart from hearing about new albums that old favourites have released, and the bands I have gotten into the last few years aren't even punk. I would love to hear some recommendations of some just straight up fast punk rock and I also like my hardcore old style I guess, without all the weak harmonies and poo poo. Here's a quick list of bands I dig which may help: Kid Dynamite, None More Black, Bad Brains, Propagandhi, Bronx, Hot Water Music, Tragedy, Bad Religion, Municipal Waste, Poison Idea, Satanic Surfers, A Wilhelm Scream, Dillinger 4, MXPX (I don't understand why I started listening to them again).

House Boat, The Dopamines, Dear Landlord, Chinese Telephones, Dan Padilla, Off With Their Heads. If you go back a couple pages there are tons of recommendations.

If you like Hot Water Music and A Wilhelm Scream, you'll probably enjoy Make Do And Mend. Also, The Menzingers. It's not possible to not like The Menzingers.

I have that bookmarked too! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fPN-IYwGk4 I miss the Steinways. House Boat is awesome but it's missing a lot of the silliness of the Steinways. Are You Into Metal is the only really silly song off Delaware Octopus.

Our recommendations are amazing and the Mezingers suck balls. If you want a good band out of PA listen to The Holy Mess. Listened to Domesplitter a few more times. The music is a lot better but the vocals are a little Shevchuk-ish on a couple tracks and I don't think it works, maybe it'll grow on me. Still a great album though.

After Inspector_71's recommendation of the Touche Amore album in the "Best of 2011" thread I've become obsessed with them. They're so loving good, first heard of them on their split with La Dispute, but I started checking out all their other stuff and it's pretty drat great. Are there any other bands that sound like them?
