[grrtthe ghost seems to think there is a "Donkey Fairy"]

So... Pendulum broke up a few days ago, very unhappy about this! Was really hoping for another album from them soon!

[onewheeled999Noo! They be stealin' my bucket!]

Anyone have any recommendations for newer punk bands? Don't get me wrong, I love the old stuff...just trying to bring in some variety.

Check out the Cobra Skulls, especially their albums American Rubicon and Bringing the War Home. You won't be disappointed.

Definitely one of my new favorite songs - "Screaming Bloody Murder" by Sum 41 off of their latest album, "Screaming Bloody Murder."

^ Wish I could like Sum past their famous songs, but I struggle to grasp them!

I always love finding 'new' bands to like. Turns out Foster the People is ten times better than Pumped Up Kicks makes them out to be! Notably.. Life On the Nickel.

^What songs are you a fan of by Sum 41? Mine favorites are Screaming Bloody Murder, the Hell Song, Over My Head (Better Off Dead), Fat Lip, and Underclass Hero.

Fat Lip, Underclass Hero, In Too Deep, I'm a fan of the Hell Song, mainly because of the video! Past that I enjoy most of their songs, but they've yet to leave a lasting impression, and I don't really know any by name. Great band, I just haven't gotten really 'into them.'

I like all of Sum 41's CD's up until Screaming Bloody Murder. They used to be one of my favorite bands, but that CD is such a departure from their other CD's but so was Chuck. Chuck was really interesting and intense whereas this CD just leaves me scratching my head and asking what happened!

I am not really a fan of Chuck. There is really only one standout song from that album, Pieces. Screaming Bloody Murder is the same, one standout song in Screaming Bloody Murder. While All Killer No Filler, Does This Look Infected?, and Underclass Hero had a multiple standout songs in them.

Not to change the subject or anything, but I went record shopping today, and found this gem straight from the 80's in the bargain bin at FYE.


After The Fire - ATF

Surprisingly, it's pretty good. They only had one hit in the US, which was an English cover of "Der Kommissar." Give it a listen, you might love it (or, depending on your age, it might give you a weird flashback).

[The49erWhat would donkeys be like on the moon?]

Are you guys familiar with Daft Punk? Their album "Discovery" is an epic synthesized win.
