Grey Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 I love Modern Rock ballads. Anyone else?. Anyone got any good non-mainstream ones they like? I'm pretty much familiar with everything from bands like Nickelback, Hinder and Daughtry. Here's a few random favorites from recent years: Shallow Side - Crazy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srSkou3Hj6M Falter - Burdens https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pb97Q6jjP8 Art of Dying - Everything https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKeTzuKQCrQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC_AOR Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 18 Visions had a great ballad called 'Broken Hearted'. Can't believe it's nearly 10 years old! BTW some nice selections Grey. https://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=EvBHUeXGLpI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 Art of Dying - Everything https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKeTzuKQCrQ One of my favourite songs of 2015 so far. Absolutely love it. Shame the rest of the EP is pretty much throwaway modern rock / nu-metal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW some nice selections Grey. https://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=EvBHUeXGLpI This one's really good. I'd never heard of the song, or even the band. I still have to check out the rest of the lists. Lots to listen to here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame the rest of the EP is pretty much throwaway modern rock / nu-metal. Agreed on both points. Shame, since their last CD was good. Yeah, I agree about the previous disc. Good band and I was surprised at how weak the rest of the new EP is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristian Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Maybe not everyone's cup of tea, but I've always had a soft spot for Bowling For Soup's "Where to Begin" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotthardline Posted June 23, 2015 Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 Theory of a Deadman have a few great ballads The already mentioned 'Not meant to be' Santa Monica All or Nothing Easy to love you What was I thinking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbo Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Matchbox 20 - 'Rest Stop' ... probably not everyone's cup of poison, but I love this song ... the same with The Cranberries' 'Daffodil Lament' ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second Chance, Not Meant to Be and My Little Secret were already in my collection. I finally got around to listening to everything else on the list I hadn't heard (except 7th Heaven, couldn't find it) and really like Dive's Tonight and Stanfour's Desperate. Good suggestions.

Grey Posted June 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 If this sounds a bit like Skillet, I'm sure it's because the EP was produced by their guitarist, Ben Kasica.

Geoff Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 Very nice. Yeah, sounds like a mix of Skillet and Hinder. I must check this one out. Is the EP from this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on what I've read on their Facebook page, it looks like they're done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
