Cali Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Okay Nickelback needs to be removed and burned from the list... And Devin Townsend needs to be added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmteam Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I didn't know BTO was Canadian. And I agree, this should definitely be the next list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its funny because I hear so many people saying how much they like them (including myself) and its hard to find their stuff.They have a bad manager or no manager.

The word of mouth on them has been going around for like a year now.I know crappy groups that have been out for a far less period of time and are better marketed than they are.There is no excuse for them to not be banking on that.

Agreed but they do play a lot of shows. I'll give them credit for that. They even played that Obama gig at the Aragon earlier this year.

I don't think it's bad managing, getting as much buzz as they have without a real record deal is good managing imo. btw this is a great album cover. isobel is pretty. http://a6.vox.com/6a00d414202ce43c7f00e398ed6d560004-500pi Edited May 11, 2008 by bmags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunkBomber Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Anybody have any strategies for finding bands that you like that youve never heard? After going through every avenue to download songs from the bands Ive heard of and becoming curious to find more Ive been trying some new tactics to find new bands I like but have never heard of. Things like looking up the music in tv shows or movies I like, going to billboard.com and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get Blender and Spin magazine, I ignore the featured artists in the front part of the magazine and go to the new releases in the back. I read the reviews and some catch my eye, I will find them on myspace music or their personal webpages and check them out. Last.fm and pandora are pretty cool too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only go to thier myspace music pages because they have constantly streaming music, so I get to give them a listen before I get the album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
