Never heard of The Exies or Kings of Leon.Music is going to be shit in 2003.

Post by: Henry Dark on January 08, 2003, 03:07:00 pm: They opened for Fountains of Wayne awhile back. We got there late, so missed them. They're getting quite a bit of play on KEXP. They're decent, but nothing that's going to make me pee my pants for the next 10 years. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Originally posted by Jaguär: Don't have MTV so I don't know what's going on there but I do have a couple songs by The Ravenettes.

What pissed me off most about the "10 bands to watch" or something was when they said that Sparta wasn't a 'hit' last year. are they measuring that solely on album sales or what? errr

Post by: Captain Jack on January 08, 2003, 06:57:00 pm: A.F.I. signed to Dreamworks, I guess that's why they're considered new to the mainstream. I don't like their new stuff, I was cool with them being a Misfits rehash, but now they're all goth, and davey goes for that Dani Filth look. they sell big, mall punk. I'm pretty sure a lot of the 'new' bands are gonna be hardcore bands watering themselves down for the mainstream, like thursday, poison the well, from autumn to ashes, cave in. We'll see.

Post by: myuman on January 08, 2003, 07:06:00 pm: Isn't this the same publication that mentioned Seether, Audioslave, and Chevelle in their "bands to watch" in the past. I'm not sure because that issue found the circular file shortly after it made it in the front door.... just like the current issue. I figure at something like a quarter an issue its worth it to keep the subscription as opposed to wasting the time and cancelling.

I like their sound as it is, and I think that's what works for them, but they spawned off a lot of copycat bands, eh. And I don't particularly find them too mainstream. Am I off?
