R.e.m
Silverchair
Waking The Cadaver
Job for a Cowboy
August Burns Red
Lamb Of God
Slipknot
Sikth
Jimmy Eat World
Alien Ant Farm Etc ..

ah yes, jimmy eat world.( my personal fave is " in teh middle" ( i LOVE driving/riding fast to that one) 

I've been listening to a lot of Offspring, Nirvana, OLDDD Greenday, RHCP, and of course Metallica.

Jay, listen to a few off the self-titled album and tell me they sound 'poppy'.  The band started out making songs that focused on a serious social commentary and after 'Ixnay' on the Hombre' decided to go a little more 'mainstream' and juvenile.  Just to reference, 'Jennifer lost the war today' off the self-titled album is one of the most apparent commentaries on the album about the self-absorption that swept America in the 80's.  They lost  that feel for several albums and instead focused on making crap like 'hit that'.

Now thats music 

Jay, you know the band Sikth? I think they are from out your way... I have been listening to/learning alot of their stuff lately.

Yep , i did mention it on my *what im listening to* section, But i think u missed it lol  , they are incredable only 40 miles away from me , and Dan Foord the drummer , is something soo speical ,

Sikth have Broken up for good now , the two singers left and they were going to be Replaced but they have all gone there own Ways

There first album , the Trees are Dead is the most increable album i have ever heard , Death of a Dead day is ok , but not as good at the first
*Terry  , Offspring arnt really my thing , but give me a few albums to *ahem Buy nice and Legally * , and ill give u a opinion

Honestly, 'Smash' is their best and most widely appealing album.  It was a 1994 release  and the first record that year from an independent label to make it to the top 5.
Their self-titled album is very interesting and one of my favorites though a bit morbid in it's themes.  'Ignition' was a great album that never really took off that well.
'Ixnay on the Hombre' was pretty good, though my least favorite of the 4 early Offspring albums. 

The new album is really good overall, it's refreshing to see them back from the bullshit they put out in the late 90's early 00's.
I'm checking hotel rates for the Virgin Festival in Baltimore as we speak   I'm gonna get the VIP ticket, you get a shaZam! ton of free booze and better access
