Bands Like... can any1 recommend any good bands in the same kinda style as: rooney phantom planet the 88 spoon nada surf or like these... blink sum41 i need some new music...
Never heard of any of those bands but after going to glasto last weekend and seeing quite a few bands i would suggest checking out these: The Zutons Kasabian Killers Dunno if you'll like them but i was pretty impressed and i dont normally like that sort of music. Check out Jet as well
Check out a band called Robert Randolph and the Family Band as well, seen them on Later with Jools Holland a few months ago and they were fucking rocking. Sort of a funky blues band but quite rock and roll as well. He sits down and uses this sort of slide guitar thats on a table dunno the correct name for it. His website is www.robertrandolph.net and you can listen to samples there too.
i only saw the killers but my mates spent most the festival in the new tent and they rated those two very highly.. ian is phantom planet and the 88's other stuff as good as the two tracks u told me to look for?
yeah they're the same kinda thing... california summery kinda stuff, perfect for the few times we get sunshine rooney are the same kinda stuff an cool too... **edit** actually scrap that! mis read what you put phantom planets stuff is ok but a bit stereotypical US wuss rock/indie type thing... or 'alternative' as the americans say the 88 is cool laid back summery stuff tho
blink etc aint really my thing, but if you like them check out, new found glory, nofx, goldfinger, fenix tx, greenday, dunno which of them youve heard of, like i say it isnt my thing but they r well known pop punk bands
they played a couple of tracks live on the radio before they went on stage what was so bad about their performance
no life to them whatsoever apart from somewhere only we know and everybodys changing (which i really like)... they're missing something... i think dull is the most fitting word to describe them... and i was really looking forward to seeing them cos i love anything with a piano in it
One of the best (and one of the only) bands I saw at Glastonbury were The Egg and they were really good. Only thing I can think to compare them to are Death in Vegas. They've got a new album coming out (or maybe its already out) called Forwards or something. Gomez were good too I thought.
But pissed like, so sorry if this makes no fucking sense, but you can't talk about American bands without mentioning Green Day
i don't like gomez on the principle as they're from ilkley an yeah green day rock... got jus about all their tracks i think! checking out all the ones that've been said, thanks guys! my itunes account is taking a beating at the mo
vines - homesick on the highly evolved album is excellent.. the whole album is brilliant... reminds me of travellin
