Members JBecker Posted January 1, 2007 Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 The Lawrence Arms. Infectiously catchy, brilliant lyrics. Anyone else really into these guys? I just found out about hte 2005 release of their B sides which I think was a fantastic move as many of those songs are my favorites of theirs. I've been listening to them for years but no one else I know is into them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members billcheckrules Posted January 1, 2007 Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 One of my top three fav. bands in that genre. I love the lawrence arms, alkaline trio, hot water music. so good! If you dig The Lawrence Arms check out Latterman LATTERMAN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bunghole Posted January 1, 2007 Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 Evaporators. They're really garage rock type stuff, but they are on alternative tentacles so good enough. Another band on AT that no one listens to is False Prophets. you can hear both at the web site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JBecker Posted January 1, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 Originally posted by CaseyMAN All Thrice is good. True. I just happen to really think Illusion of Safety is particularly good. The Earth Will Shake (is that the name?) off of Vheissu is quite good though.

Members sickb0y Posted January 1, 2007 Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 I've been listening to pretty much every band mentioned in this thread lately. I've really been digging on Thrice, especially "Stare at the Sun" from "The Artist in the Ambulance". The bass riff in that is super catchy and well, they just rock out hard. Strung Out are one band that should get LOTS more coverage than they do - they're both pretty good guitarists in that band. But, for catchy, i like Misfits - Famous Monsters album. All old TV show theme tunes put into punk songs. Great stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out this version of "The Inefficiency of Emotion", which is the last song of the night. Holy crap, the interlude and then the final part of the song is the reason why i love these guys.

Members JBecker Posted January 1, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 I was posting the thread to talk about The Lawrence Arms (or are they just Lawrence Arms now... I feel like they've gone under both) but it's nice to see some bands I haven't really listened to in 5-6 years mentioned. Only some of this stuff can I continue to listen to, The Lawrence Arms is definitely one of those groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ballfuzz Posted January 1, 2007 Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 Yeah Ihear ya, the really simplistic skate punk stuff has had it's time in my life. I still love it but I listen to it to think back on old times. I really like a lot more technicality now, which I find in lots of the bands I listen to now and have listed earlier.

Members NOFX-FRANK Posted January 1, 2007 Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 One of my favorite record this year is from montreal's The Sainte Catherines. Dancing For Decadence is great honest drunk punk with 3 guitarists. great vintage guitar tone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took me from 12-15 or so and made me want to pick up guitar. I wouldn't even say I've gone to things that are more technical though. Sure, a lot of the times what I listen ot is more technical now, but much of it is simple straight up rock still (the kind of stuff I was into before I was 12). I just don't feed off of straight energy all the time anymore-- dynamics is the name of the game that most of these bands don't play. Which is fine, it's just part of why I've lost the taste for it (this isn't true for bands like Thrice, but is for bands like say, The Movielife, though I still love This Time Next Year and Walking on Glass). Anyway, music always has it's place. I can't wait to see what whacked out {censored} I listen to in another ten years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
