wtf is unity
Do you sleep?
I think this is a really good idea, but I think having a week dedicated to one band could be a put-off if someone doesn't like the band. Maybe a Band/Song a day
I take cat naps occasionally.
band/song a day isn't as original as this. I like the idea. Puts a spin on things.
May I suggest Rage Against the Machine-Calm Like A Bomb . Lesser known, but I love it. nice bass line.
Umm... As for next week, how about some classic rock? I say Foreigner. Great 80's band.
Gonna subscribe to this blog.
I have a few suggestions:
Leftover Crack, Choking Victim, Morning Glory, INDK, No-Cash, Intro5pect, My Own Religion, Misfits (with Danzig on vocals), Against All Authority, Dropkick Murphys, Casualties, Defiance, Sex Pistols, The Ramones, Dead Kennedys, Operation Ivy, NOFX, Flogging Molly, Guttermouth, Sloppy Seconds, Screeching Weasels, The Vandals, The Briggs, Caustic Christ, Rancid, Destruction Made Simple, Blood for Blood, D.O.A., Sublime, Alice in Chains, Beck, Blur, Butthole Surfers, Dave Matthews Band, Eels, Bush, Elastica, No Doubt, Fiona Apple, Stone Temple Pilots, Cake, Green Day, Jane's Addiction, Marcy Playground, Nada Surf, Smashing Pumpkins, Folk Implosion, Donna Lewis, Blind Melon, Presidents of the United States of America, The Refreshments, Silverchair, Pearl Jam, Fun Lovin' Criminals, Deep Blue Something, Primitive Radio Gods, Joan Osbourne, Rage Against the Machine, Nine Inch Nails, Cranberries, Prodigy, The Wall Flowers, Nerf Herder, Jamiroqui, Alanis Morisette, Gin Blossoms, Garbage, Green Day, The Foo Fighters, Superdrag, Weezer, The Pixies, Sound Garden, System of a Down, Marilyn Manson, Porno for Pyros, Radiohead, Oasis, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, The White Stripes, Sneaker Pimps, The Flaming Lips, OK Go, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, The Doors, Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, MC Pants, I KILL PXLS, Bit Shifter, Nullsleep, x|k, Wiklund, Dr. Von Pnok, Rosencrantz & guildensterN, Coda, Sabrepulse, Paza, Regina Spektor, Ben Folds, The Killers, Dethklok, Fiona Apple, Modest Mouse, Muse

@ Sheep
DETHKLOK DETHKLOK!
I was going to post a band/video, until I re-read your post. So this entire week you're dedicating to Rage Against The Machine? Future bands/groups I'd like to suggest would be: Tegan and Sara, Armin van Buuren, Gorillaz, Daft Punk, Sum 41, etc.
Leftover Crack, Choking Victim, Morning Glory, INDK, No-Cash, Intro5pect, My Own Religion, Misfits (with Danzig on vocals), Against All Authority, Dropkick Murphys, Casualties, Defiance, Sex Pistols, The Ramones, Dead Kennedys, Operation Ivy, NOFX, Flogging Molly, Guttermouth, Sloppy Seconds, Screeching Weasels, The Vandals, The Briggs, Caustic Christ, Rancid, Destruction Made Simple, Blood for Blood, D.O.A., Sublime, Alice in Chains, Beck, Blur, Butthole Surfers, Dave Matthews Band, Eels, Bush, Elastica, No Doubt, Fiona Apple, Stone Temple Pilots, Cake, Green Day, Jane's Addiction, Marcy Playground, Nada Surf, Smashing Pumpkins, Folk Implosion, Donna Lewis, Blind Melon, Presidents of the United States of America, The Refreshments, Silverchair, Pearl Jam, Fun Lovin' Criminals, Deep Blue Something, Primitive Radio Gods, Joan Osbourne, Rage Against the Machine, Nine Inch Nails, Cranberries, Prodigy, The Wall Flowers, Nerf Herder, Jamiroqui, Alanis Morisette, Gin Blossoms, Garbage, Green Day, The Foo Fighters, Superdrag, Weezer, The Pixies, Sound Garden, System of a Down, Marilyn Manson, Porno for Pyros, Radiohead, Oasis, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, The White Stripes, Sneaker Pimps, The Flaming Lips, OK Go, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, The Doors, Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, MC Pants, I KILL PXLS, Bit Shifter, Nullsleep, x|k, Wiklund, Dr. Von Pnok, Rosencrantz & guildensterN, Coda, Sabrepulse, Paza, Regina Spektor, Ben Folds, The Killers, Dethklok, Fiona Apple, Modest Mouse, Muse
Your ideas interest me. I plan to subscribe to this new service and offer it my full support!
RATM, classic, i don't think there's a decent person alive who doesn't dig them. I remember my friends trying to order tickets online 2 minutes after they went on sale but by that time all the online tix had already sold out. kind of crazy.
I've yet to give "One Day as a Lion" a good listen too, but combining elements of RATM and the Mars Volta seems like a masterpiece waiting to happen. Anyone who's got the new album yet care to give us their opinions??
Finally, to end my spam, I'll limit myself to posting one reccomendation per-week rather than listing 50 bands in one go, so here's my first mention:
http://www.myspace.com/armcannon
(pick Boomer Esiason Kuwanger first. then Still more fighting.)
Rage against the machine, awesome.
Band Suggestions(in no particular order): Your Vegas, Oasis, The Killers, The Bird and The Bee, Iron Maiden, Fighter X, Boy Kill Boy, Lostprophets, Gorillaz, Blue Oyster Cult, Mind in a Box, Anarchy Club, The Who(PINBALL WIZARD!!!), 8 Bit Weapon, Queen, Korn, Coldplay, Staind, Breaking Benjamin...
I'd recommend more, but alot of my pics have already been suggested by others.
Omfg, this isn't fucking imeem. Keep this shit in the forums. But if it were a new guy, he would get flamed over this, but no, you have to be Dtoid famous to post massive amounts of nvgr blogs and not get flamed.
Humanity fails me.
Palidi: "Anarchy Club"
I love you.
@ Scrixx
Just because Heretic's gone doesn't mean that we wanted someone to take his place. It's like a fucking Symbiote is going around or something. Jesus.
Heretic's gone? Since when. Oh lawl.
But this is just as bad as Heretic, posting nvgr related shit all the time.
ok, i can see where this might be going, as a lot of people are happy to jump in, list their favourite bands and then leave. What we should all be doing to get involved is rather than list a whole lot of band, just list a single band but then explain why we like them so much. having said this, let me lead by example and explain why I love and why you should listen to the band I mentioned: ArmCannon.
Arm Cannon could be described as a progressive metal/rock band that choose to perform covers of Retro Videogame songs (ie, Megaman, Zelda & FFVII themes). You could say that the kind of music leans more towards metal than rock, with the tempo for a lot of the songs being pushed up considerably and the double kick drumming giving the songs more balls than ever thought possible. As they are VG covers, there are no vocals, so those of you who are not inclined to the sweet sounds of screaming and growling that metal usually provides can still enjoy what Arm Cannon has to offer. The musicians appear to be quite talented too, as you can hear from the piano solos in SMegaman3, and the almost Opeth-like timing changes in BoomerKwanger.
I love these guy not only because they cover themes from the games that I love, but because the take these themes and transform them into something entirely of their own.
Thats all from me for this week. Happy listening, and great idea once again Ron.
Don't like it? Go to a different site. Try 4chan, I think you would fit in there.
I don't know what you hope to accomplish. I am going to post this, day after day. I'm not going to let some angry kid with a keyboard and delusions of grandeur tell me what I can and can't do.
Have fun with your hate. Somewhere else.
@DanMazkin
That is a great idea. Just keep in mind, I need to be able to find 5 songs of theirs on YouTube. Small bands might be a problem.
Oooo mr. tough guy. Trying to be rational and fake about his life. Please cut this shit out. And then I wonder why all the veterans left, you know the ones before your fake ass even heard of this website. It can only be so long before Yojimbo, Dragon, and Counting Conflict leaves, as well as a few others.
Oh well, every good sites gets ruined by hypocritical teenagers who act like everything they do is better for the website. Just look at IGN, Gamespot, etc.
Like you?
Fake? what's fake about me? I'm here because I'm a gamer, as is the point of the site. How am I killing it? It's people like you that make sites like this die. How? By being go God damn unpleasant. People check Dtoid out, see comments and conversation like this, think "screw this," and turn right back around.
Oh, and by the way, this is NVGR
And so is this.
And this.
And this.
Hey unhide all your blogs there pal, because 4 to probably 50 is nothing.
Also, the first is nvgr, but epic, the second as well, the third maybe you should read it, I tried to make it vgr somehow and the 4th is epic as well.
Internet Rule: Epic News is Universal.
1) I only looked at your first page of blogs.
2) I hide my blogs so I can look at my recent comments. I don't like that page congested.
are you guys going to have angry, gay sex now
hahahahahaha
Sadistic wants in if we are.
Still ignoring the part that you have more nvgr related stuff then I ever will.
Because These Guys Have Balls Right?
But it's ok, hiding makes you seem like you actually contribute.
Oh God, this is never going to end will it?
Fine, you win. Have fun with that hollow victory.
And don't forget to check back tomorrow for #2!!!!!!
Will do. Thanks.
Animal Collective.
That is all.
Check my blog video and tell me what you think of the song.
