Sometimes it sucks to admit, but c'mon, don't be shy.

Just this year I got into Hot Water Music. I mean, I'm glad I did, but shit... talk about late in the game.

I just got into Dillinger Four. I was aware of their existence before and had heard them once or twice on comps, but never got beyond that until August of this year.

I always get into music way too late.

I'm just now getting into less than jake

The Bouncing Souls come to mind.

I have this problem where as soon as I start listening to a band, they break up. Sorry about Bear vs. Shark and Modern Life is War, guys.

LindseySuicide · « **Reply #4 on:** December 18, 2009, 03:08:56 PM »

these are all bands I just discovered within the last year:

dillinger four
bomb the music industry!
strike anywhere
against me!
pretty much all the ska I love now
crime in stereo

this is what happens when you don't have the internet for three years.

I was joking, I never really liked less than jake

they are OK though

alithea · « **Reply #7 on:** December 18, 2009, 03:23:01 PM »

this year i made an effort to listen to bands that id heard of but never really listened to. this included:

the descendents (aside from suburban home)
talking heads (aside from the singles)
crass (werent as terrible as i would have guessed based on their fan base)

bands that i got really into way late in general:

alkaline trio

i can get behind this statement. i like only two records they have done tops. probably more like half of two records. i think they are on the lower end of ska bands that were from around that time.

even though i love less than jake, i can think of about 1000000 better ska bands that exist.

There are so many goddamn bands out...its hard to keep up. I try and stat on top of it though but then a million more bands pop up.

Pretty much everything.... I'm not exactly on the cutting edge of music.

these are the ultimate "oh shit I missed the boat" for me for this year. I fell in love with both those bands and LO AND BEHOLD THEY JUST BROKE UP.

Thanks for calling them the falling angels...they totally ripped off my bands name!

Ha, I remember when most of the bands y'all are listing when they first started. I never really got into the Smoking Popes, but one of those dudes used to send me all their records. Hmmm.... I should probably see if that vinyl is worth anything. Most of the bands I feel I slept on are KBD and 70s punk bands I didn't hear until the last couple years, I jumped straight into Black Flag, the Ramones and Dead Kennedys, it took me a while to find all the 70s punk bands.

it likely is, although they are about to be re-released on asian man. you better put it on ebay now, or just sell it to me.

Most modern pop-punk. I joined the Mark Sparkles in like January of February, and have gotten a quick education via Ben and Jake. I really feel bummed about missing out on ever seeing the Marked Men and the Ergs!

packagethief · « **Reply #19 on:** December 19, 2009, 08:12:58 AM »

the ergs! were seriously one of the best live bands ever i think. every now and then i miss them, but life moves on and so do musicians. all their new bands are awesome. get into them!

Way fucking late...

Grendel · « **Reply #23 on:** December 19, 2009, 09:14:35 AM »

here's one as of 10 minutes ago...Fifth Hour Hero.
I played one of their songs on my last radio show, but other than that had never listened to them. I was even given a cd of theirs free at one point but never listened. Right now i am listening to Not Revenge... Just a Vicious Crush. I very much disliked the first song, but everything since has fucking ruled.
