If I May, I'd like to suggest a couple new bands to check out or cds or whatever.
Jakalope - If you like good music, with good female vocals then you will be pleased. Trent Reznor even worked on a couple tracks. Nuff said.
Icon and the Black Roses (http://www.iconandtheblackroses.com) - Quite possibly the second Love Metal band ever. Despite the obvious genre rip off, they are very good. If you like HIM then you will like them.
HIM - LOVE METAL - It is important that everyone listen to HIM, i couldnt not mention Icon and not mention HIM.
Le Tigre - This Island - Good times, gets a little funky with keyboards and what not
Birthday Massacre - Violet - 80s inspired goth rock with female vocals. can be purchased through metropolis records website (http://www.industrial-music.com/)
Adult - Resuscitation - Electroclashy goodness. I've recently been introduced and am very pleased.
If Man Is Five - Local band (binghamton that is) and amazingly good for a band that comes from such a terrible place. You can buy their cds from (http://www.cdbaby.com)
OK i could go on naming bands like Eisbrecher, Bleeding Through, The Start, Error, The Faint, Amphibious Assault, Blutengel, Hanzel Und Gretyl, Pzychobitch and Butterfly Messiah all night so i'll stop now, but i just had to get some of this out, cause this stuff isnt getting enough attention. Though i'm sure this little post here isn't exactly gonna make any of them household names, but i can at least pretend people read this and i can at least pretend people care about what i say.
Adios.
