Rock & Alternative Thread
 

Saw that there's a thread for Hiphop and Asian music and all that other stuff but nothing for all the "good stuff" that's played on the Fox (99.3) or on the Zone (91.3).

Post about new tunes, upcoming concerts, indie bands, whatever and whatnot about ROCK :buttrock:

Yeah I love rock as much as I love Hip-hop! Hell I listen to all types of music besides country.

Anyways... anything Billy Talent will guarantee to get you screaming!

I want to see Billy Talent play at the Commodore again. Don't like those big, Plaza of Nations type shows

anybody watching Rockstar Supernova?

The Killers @ Orpheum Oct 11th

Tix for sale starting tomorrow (unless you got the presale today)

am i the only one on rs that's heard of the academy is...? they rock.

:flamemad: Sold out! Alexisonfire is coming, but I wanted to see The Killers :(

I've heard of them BUT i've never heard any of their music. What's a good song to sample?

alexisonfire is also coming here to banff and i'm gonna check em out. coming back to van to see pennywise/ignite and also thinking about seeing bad religion too.

you heard their new cd?

Saw Tool last week


mmmmmouthwatering goodness

The Pot is a really good song

almost here, attention attention, classifieds, black mamba....all they're music's rockin.

The Killers did a great job at the MTV awards the other night.
Axl Rose on the other hand ... he's messed up

There's nothing good played on 99.3 CFox, unless you count the Metal Shop on Monday Nights 11PM-12PM. They were blasting new Maiden, Dragonforce and Trivium non stop. Now that's quality radio.

there's a band called Dragonforce?
do they wear dragon costumes?

of course. Every band lives their bandname. did you know members of Metallica like to wear knight armour on stage? I saw it on youtube so it must be true

I saw Tool a couple weeks back too. Just godly.

i think some bands over do it though ... people pay more attention to what they wear than to their music

who's going to the Killers show?

Anyone got the Alien Ant Farm album? It's pretty awesome.


BTW. what's thta new Alexisonfire hit?

AAF has a new album?

Dragonforce is not bad. They do tend to walk the line between amazing and amazingly cheesy.

Some stuff I've been listening to to lately that I suppose would fit the rock/alt are Wintersleep, Mew, Pride Tiger and New Pornographers

any good music dvds to buy?

Dream Theater's Score just came out if you're into that stuff. Haven't watched it yet as I'm waiting for a get together and watch with my friends. The Gigantour dvd is out too. I'd like to see that but only for half the bands in it.

I've always wondered how this show went. I remember when it first happened there were a lot of ppl, including myself, that were a little disappointed. I was expecting more older songs for a 20th anniversary show. Then again, I read that they wanted to use a lot of songs that haven't previous been put on dvd.

That reminds me I haven't seen the when dream and day reunite show dvd yet.
