    I listen to very new music since streaming is now blocked at work and philly radio sucks (only AM/FM in my city beater car) so this is what I've been listening to lately on my ipod.

    Hum
    Swervedriver
    Rush
    The Chills
    Maynard Ferguson

    The first one.

    Jack's Mannequin actually started as the side project of Andrew McMahon, lead singer for Something Corporate, who were big in the early 2000s. That band is actually on hiatus now and JM has become his number one project.

    haven't gotten through all of that one yet. then again I have been lazy and not actually bought it so it's a bit difficult to listen to it all the way through. lol


    to quote my g/f while describing COB to someone:
    "Yes, they have keyboards. Get over it and realize that they are amazing."

    Dude. When they do the guitar solo with the keyboard playing along, it's sick. Especially live.

    I hear your COB and their metal with keyboards and raise you one Cradle of Filth.

    COB is pretty f-ing great, though.
