    Default Local Music

    It just occurred to me to start a thread about the music scene of our country.

    As evident in my location, I'm from the Philippines and our music industry is a tolerant amalgamation of creativity and rip offs.

    Anyway here's a sample of one of our bands Up Dharma Down. The song is Pag-agos (meaning "Flow"). Hope you like it!

    In terms of local bands, <a href=http://youtube.com/watch?v=Irof0Bu6lkE>Every Time I Die</a> is from Buffalo, and they used to play a lot in Erie.

    August and Far Less both came out of my hometown. Not too fond of Far Less but they are extremely talented.

    Probably my favourite local band is Army of Flying Robots http://www.myspace.com/armyofflyingrobots although there are a lot of good bands in Nottingham and of course my band Pisslicker though we havent got a web page i can link to yet. (or a decent singer yet)

    Fort Wayne, IN has a rather expansive hardcore/metal scene. If you like that kind of music, look up Saints Never Surrender, Agatha, Amarna Reign, and Before Their Eyes (even though they're from Ohio, not Fort Wayne, and they're more screamo than hardcore).

    Ouchies! Death Metal! Now I don't hate the genre. I just can't seem to appreciate it. (No flames please)

    Ever wondered why almost all metal bands come from Europe?

    Cambridge has a bit of a music scene. Some people I know have a few CD's out.
    I'm too lazy to look up & link anyone, but they're pretty awesome.

    They use to play every week practically from like 2001-2002 or so and then they got "big?" after Last Night in town.

    As for local bands, a majority of local bands where I lived (I still consider it home) are sxe hardcore bands.

    Represent http://www.myspace.com/xrepresentx (my friend derek is in this band)

    EDIT: after some research and the amount of painting i've done today i can no longer continue with this search of good erie bands. perhaps that means there aren't any.
    now safe beneath their wisdom, and their feet;
    here i will teach you truly how, to sleep.
