Anyone ever hear of the Yeah Yeah Yeah's?,had a listen to some of their stuff and I like it.They're from New York,I think and sound a bit like Hives/Strokes/Whitestripes.
Anyone got any other bands worth checking out??

They've been around a fair while now i think. 'Maps' was a pretty big single for them. Singer (Karen O) seems to be a modern day Chrissie Hynde type
The Berries from Cork
de're de berries like :)
if you haven't already, check out the Zutons. Sorta like the coral, but alot better.
Got the Killers new album, excellent stuff
The yeah yeah yeahs are cool, has anyone got Kasabians album, pure class.. worth getting.
Just got it there at the weekend. Liking it a lot have to sayQuote:

Saw them live a while back, pretty disappointed to be honest because I'd liked what I'd heard of them to that point.Quote:

They're music is good but the bird who plays the trumpet seems like a little dinger. Prompt obvious jokes.....
Anyone heard of these lads from Dublin? Heard two songs off their website and they sound good.

I wonder how the band feels about this comparison... IMO it's unfair to brand them like that so early just because the record co. wants to encourage buyers from a proven market. I also think they are a creditable band in their own right and i dont know where they are coming from saying that the Roses should have sounded like them :rolleyes:
Exactly. I bought the album on the basis of hearing two singles, LSF and one other. then I pick the album up and I see this stupid quote from the MEN ;) saying this crap about the Roses second album should have been like this.I can't really see the comparison myself. The singer can sing after alll.......Quote:

I also heard mainline before, just from there site and from listening to songs on www.irishmusiccentral.com, a good band to listen to on that site are the shades, from cork I think, the songs called cider horizon, good song! :ball:Quote:

Good job this is a new forum - if this had been in off topic I'd be calling for a ban... :mad: ;)Quote:

here from their profile on the lobby website
the album is good, they're even better live
saw them a few times with up to 12-15 members playing at once
guitars/drums/keyboards/dj's mixing, 2 singers and a string section all at once ..deadly
official website
mp3's
Jees, really wanna hear them now. Any whiff of a sound link at all, no? :cool:
