For up-beat, pop-punk (think Jimmy Eat World I guess) I would also recommend any songs by the following bands:
-Dropkick Murphys
-Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies

haha, you're from Mass huh? I think the murphys would beat some ass, being thrown in w/ the gimmie gimmies . . . but i like it

Anyway - today's selection:

Brendan Benson - start w/ "Pony Ride" and "Cherries" then move on to the rest



PS - I'm going to try to bump w/ one new band a day here for a while . . .

"Shinin'" by Brad

"Girl from the Gutter" by Kia

I also forgot to mention Angie Aparo....I absoultely love him!! He is an Atlanta based singer and just wonderful.

Faith Hill remade his song "Cry"....his version is so much better!

My fave songs of his are "Gloria", "Hush", and "The American".

Angie Aparo is amazing!! I'm from Atlanta, so it seems like no one outside of the metro Atlanta area has heard of him, but his songs are great!!!!!

[Kevin]

Don McLean, The Day the Music Died

[SATX*APhi]

"This is God" -- Phil Vassar

Not really upbeat, but the messge is awesome

[LeslieAGD]

Granian - All In The Face
Amanda Marshall - Love Lift Me

[AXJules]

Ok, you can learn a lot about people just by downloading a few songs....LOL not all have really been my taste, but there have been quite a few I'm taking w/ me

Whoever said Kia- she is the shit. Love her love her love her. Kinda wondering where she went, though- her cd came out 4 years ago and haven't heard from her since.

My picks for today:

One of my other fave bands- DISPATCH. If you like BTE you'll probably like them too. I strongly suggest "The General" and "Out Loud". "Railway" is really good, too.

And since I can't go one post w/out including a house/techno fave,
"Baby Wants to Ride" by Psychobitch. She's fucking scary but the song is great.

[Dionysus]

Anything by Incubus.

[Betarulz!]

Anything by Ben Kweller, but specifically "Wasted and Ready" "Commerce TX" and "Falling"

[thesweetestone]

what site do you all download from? Is it free?

[SigmaChiCard]

The Shining - Badly Drawn Boy
Richard - Bratmobile
Mud Football - Jack Johnson
Lincoln Highway Dub - Sublime
Breathe - Telepopmusic
God, Pennies, The Boy - Smashing Pumpkins

"Nothing Better" - The Postal Service
"Myself" - Kara's Flowers
"Baby, Let's Rock!" - zwan
"Greater Omaha" - Desaparecidos
"Glasshouse Tarot" - Sparta
"Distractions" or "I have seen" - Zero7

Actually try anything by those bands - the Desaparecidos and Sparta are a little heavier, Zero7 more ambient [/B]

definitely going to back up your choice of sparta and desaparecidos. at the drive-in is quite possibly my favorite band.

"american hearts" or "just a simple plan" - PIEBALD (i GUARANTEE you will like, if not LOVE this band)
"you file" - Denali (or anything by Denali) (if you like indie girl rock and something to chill to)
"self improvement: lesson one" - slowride
"canaries" or "we are both writers" - kind of like spitting
"swing, swing" - the all-american rejects - i used to work for this band's label and they're some great guys with a really catchy single out now
"sunshine" - the damn personals (they rock like its detroit and 1967)
"where we breathe" - boys night out
"jude law and a semester abroad" - brand new
"my only cure" - recover
"deadbolts" - thrice (went to high school with these guys)
"i wrote this down" or "stop internet romance" - limbeck (went to high school with this band too....were in an apple imac commercial about two years ago)

whew.
keep me talking about music. its my life and my job.
xo

[KSig RC]

for today: some midwest "nerd-rap" from the boys of Anticon:


Atmosphere - "FREE OR DEAD" or "Like Today" etc
Eyedea - "Red Wiped With Blue"
Sage Francis - "Embarrassed"

Try anything that says "anticon" on it when you search on kazaa - some intelligent hiphop out of Minneapolis.

PS - josie, word on the ATDI, so I'll also say download "Hulahoop Wounds" by At the Drive-In
