It's grime time.

Cousin Joey

Still unsigned, still sounding like the bastard sons of Sum 41 and Blink 182, and some slappers from Maldon, Essex.

Please replace the handset, and try again.

I also heart heart HEART the Mendoza Line. They have a couple of mp3s here.

If the Mekons were American and less political, they'd be the Mendozas.

I has a flavor!

I like Rene Heartfelt. Go Richmond!

---
You know you totally missed me!

A pretty good band called: Story of the Year is a band no one has really heard of ..... maybe.

---
Laugh With The World and The World Laughs With You. Cry At The World And The World Laughs Louder.

Last I checked, Story of the Year was already on MTV.

this second one, however, belongs to a couple friends of mine, but their website is so new it's essentially empty:

Have you ever heard of Skinny Puppy? I've not found a link to any of their stuff yet but they are awesome. Their music makes you feel drugged.

80's classic! (very very very famous, though.)

I find humour in how you recommended mogwai to us.

Go find an old music thread that has something along the lines of "The 10 songs you listened to most this summer".

Oh god, someone pointed me to this site the other day, and I've been eternally grateful:

Etree's audio archive

It's a database of live shows from various bands. There are too many awesome ones on there to mention, but you'll need SHN and/or FLAC codecs for Winamp to listen to the songs, and some kind of program to convert the files to .wav if you want to burn them to a disc. Necessary codecs and programs can be found by searching around on that site, or going here and looking around.

The files are huge (up to 1.6-7 gigs for 1 show), but they're lossless recording, and you can just burn the shows to discs, then delete the source files from your computer. Lots of different musical styles on there, but there is a focus on bands that like to jam... because those are the bands that want people to hear their live show for free. Most shows are recorded by tapers who trade shows, usually through a microphone setup (but be on the lookout for soundboard shows; they're great sounding) and give the feel of a concert pretty well. Bands trip thinks you should give a listen on there:
Disco Biscuits, Keller Williams, String Cheese Incident, DJ Logic (awesome awesome awesome live show), Sound Tribe Sector 9, Yonder Mountain String Band, Rusted Root (not great jammers, though), Addison Groove Project, Karl Denson's Tiny Universe, Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, Derek Trucks Band (Duane Allman's successor-- probably a better guitar player, too).

Ok, there is a lot of stuff on there that is worth listening to.

Sex Piano.

Thanks for reminding me of that site, Trip--I haven't been there in a while.

Here's what I'm downloading from that site even as I type this:

Karl Denson's Tiny Universe (with impromptu Greyboy Allstars reunion!) recorded at the venue I always see them at!

fIREHOSE!

Soul Coughing!

Mike Doughty!

Ben Kweller!
