Phil Keaggy's son was in Hot Chelle Rae, but it appears he just left the band recently.

 

A lot of these bands look familiar, which means Geoffrey will know most of them. Because that's the only reason I would know any of them.

You are into this stuff? cause Geoff and me share pretty much the exact same taste in music, with the exception of im not a ballad guy at all, my buddy sent me this list, instead of combing through it to see if theres any good ones, I figured I'd post it and let the junk yard dog sniff it out, and bring me the good ones, which he will!

Sure. Boys Like Girls last album was very good. Sort of a Hedley-meets-Cuntry sound.

Are any of these bands even in the same ball park as Cauterize and Hit The Lights? if you can understand what Im getting at, then you'll understand why these 2 bands stand out, I know they are very rare, but there has to be a band of quality as those 2, what do you know Nolan?

I may have given you the wrong impression; they look familiar, because I'm certain Geoffrey has talked about them before.

 

Anyway, Cauterize and Hit the Lights are very different. I still don't get the appeal to Cauterize. I've listened to them so many times, and it still comes off as run-of-the-mill Punk with shitty vocals. As for bands similar to Hit the Lights, start with the aforementioned Hot Chelle Rae. And I think you'll enjoy Boys Like Girls.

I've heard of a few of these bands, like/love several others and will (time permitting seek out some of the others listed).

 

My faves are Every Avenue, Boys Like Girls, Friday Night Boys, Sparks the Rescue and Boys Will Be Boys but none of them sound like Cauterize, who I really like as well. They are all slick, polished, melodically modern bands but none of them utilize the same aggressive vocal delivery Cauterize does. I haven't heard Hit the Lights.

 

Check out another Canadian band called Social Code (especially their s/t release) who remind me of Cauterize.

There's a whole bunch of great bands in that list, many of them have their own topics started on these forums.

A Day to Remember, Every Avenue, The Downtown Fiction...a few really good ones worth checking out for starters.

Backed on Cauterise - very average modern rock imo. God knows what Geoff & cody see in them.

Have you looked into any of these, Cody? Or are you just waiting to be told what to listen to? I've gone through a bunch of them, and these are my picks, so far:

Every Avenue

The Dangerous Summer

A Rocket to the Moon

Paradise Fears

 

That's where I ended. The Dangerous Summer definitely the best of that lot.

Bro, this is the 2nd list my friend sent me, im not even close to getting to it, which is primarily why I put it up, I have only gotten through about half of the 1st list, it's getting fucking monotonous, JESUS! are they fucking difficult to find? cause theres like 8 bands on this other list that I cant find any audio of, I mean i will eventually, but im just scanning, very quickly trying to get through it, just keep checking them out, I will go through all of them, it was just overwhelming, I asked this cocksucker for a few bands I might not have heard, and the douche bag funny guy sends me a fucking catalog, then emails me the next morning axing me if I found any I liked on the list, so there is some good shit on this list? when Im done with the 1st list, i'll post it, since it seems theres people that actually are using the list, I didnt even know anyone but Geoff really even liked this kind of shit, good to know.

Oi, you've seen my own threads. You should know I listen to almost anything.

 

One thing of note, a lot of these are giving me a great sense of nostalgia. I never listened to this style of music in my teen years, but a lot of my friends were, and it was often featured in film and games. I'm very surprised to find that most of these bands are relatively new. I didn't think this style of Punk/Pop/Rock was still thriving. It definitely isn't popular in the North West. This does not get played on the radio, and I don't know of any of these guys touring around here, save the Warped Tour. So where is this stuff popular, apart from skate culture?

I heard a disc the other day I had no idea I would like. Think the band was called Teenage Fanclub or some shit like that, and the disc was called Bandwagonish or something like that.

 

Anybody know who this is?

How far have you got, Cody?

 

Anyway, have you listened to The Classic Crime? I've mentioned them many times. If you haven't, I've got the entire The Silver Cord posted in a thread that surely needs to be revived.

Thats a pretty ancient disc bro, I used to have it, they were on SNL promoting that I think In 92, if you want to hear a truly killer song by them, check out the song they do with DeLa Soul, on the Judgment Night Sdtrk, called Falling, Tom Petty wrote it, and it's just an awesome fucking song. maybe tomorrow when I get some time i'll post it here.

No bro, I am planning on really digging into the shit Saturday, it's the 1st day i'll be able to take any significant amount of time, and go through them all, I will check The Silver Card out though, I will check out all the ones you have recommended 1st, Im not ignoring you, simply overwhelmed, LOL, no I plan on it bro, so dont stop, if your finding good shit on that list, just post who it is, so I can cut to the chase, yeah bro as far as your other question, these bands have a huge following, it might possibly be the single most popular music there is, it ran it's course over radio, and finished it's trendy stage I think, I haven't listened to most of these, but I know what I asked him for, but Fall Out Boy has a new album with a number 1 single on it, they performed it in NYC on the New Years Eve countdown, and now have another single in the charts, so I just think the scene got old, but as far as the type of music, fuck, x96 here wear I live play nothing but that shit, where do you live at bro? I mean is it a pretty populated place? cause I know theres states here that dont have as big of a scene, and other places like where I live, Las Vegas, Phoenix, even Los Angeles, that shits huge.

If and when you catch up on things, do check out Social Code. As I mentioned, I always felt they had a similar sound to Cauterize.

 

I plan on it, thats the type of shit I love, and to those that havent heard Hit The Lights, search the boards here, I posted on it, and Geoff pretty much posted their entire last album, but if not,

    • I posed him that exact question on his discord page as to what his future plans are.... He said he plans to relax for a bit, do his You Tube thing, keep writing new music and then will decide how to release that music.  He said as of now he's thinking he'll either do a solo thing or form his own band.  He didn't say this but I'd sort of envision a Daughtry type "band" where he kind of puts a band behind his name. So essentially, I think you're right on with his plans.  Ultimately, I think like you say, the control is a big part of it.  I think he wants to be able to operate on his own schedule to maintain his health and family obligations. It'll be interesting to see what sound the new material takes on.  It would seem logical to think it would be rock/melodic rock of some sort since that's really the type of music he's built his following with but he certainly has shown he can dabble anywhere from AOR to metal.
    • Glad I got to see them with Erik in front. All the best to him, definitely looking forward to his future outings when he is fully recovered. Would be cool to see him form his own band, where he could take control, and play around in different genres, from full on metal, to soothing AOR, the guy is so versatile.
    • Remedy - Crying Heart. One I've just seen thanks to the Iridium channel.  From the upcoming album. It's a Killer.     
    • Let's not forget Benny Hill. What a Magnificent show that was.    
    • Yeah... I dunno about that. It would be too cringe. Who knows? If I'm high enough, I might submit a video. 
    • Yep great track and if you fancy being in the video for "The Feeling" nows your chance.  
    • I'm proud to say that I had this single when I was a mere 8 years old. KISS were big down here then. Norman Gunston is Iconic for Aussies of my vintage.  The face ln the bottom left says it all. Hilarious.     
    • All in all, this is a great story. Erik played a brilliant, well received, albeit short cameo with one of our favourite bands.  It was a win, win, win. A win for us, a win for Skid Row (the album certainly put them back on the map) and a win for Erik, adding this to his already impressive resume. The fact that it was so amicable with both parties is also great to see.
    • I really like this album - not every song on it but there are some surprisingly catchy melodies all over. Personally I think the singer adds great energy to the mix. It reminds me of the earlier Bai Bang ("closer to you")
