Shakespeare once said...
"If music be the food of love, play on."
...I don't think he was talking about this music.
Camp Kill Yourself
CKY is the band you never knew you knew. MTV's Jackass, Viva La Bam.. actually any show with
Bam Margera in it, they all feature CKY at some point. CKY has all the distorted, driven elements you love, and none of the elements your mother approves of.
Infiltrate Destroy Rebuild
CKY - Inhuman Creation StationCKY - Escape From HellviewCKY - 96 Bitter Beings Finger Eleven
Moving on to the more popular Finger Eleven. Distortion and slow riffs combined with better-than-your-average-artist's vocals. Listen and realize that sometimes good things can come from Ontario.
Them vs. You vs. Me
Finger Eleven - Paralyzer HIM (His Infernal Majesty)
Finnish band HIM has something to prove. It might not be a style that everyone likes, but many do. Worth a shot.
Deep Shadows and Brilliant Highlights
HIM - Beautiful Incubus
We're calming down a little with Incubus, not that we're free of distortion, just that there's less distortion. Incubus caught my eye and held it with live shows from Red Rocks, Colorado (a stunt shared by bands such as Kyuss and many others). Incubus has a unique sound that is impossible to copy.
