I do like it but not as much as the old stuff and only select songs not the intire album. Maybe I just need to listen to it more but its still good though. ---

> [@ILCisDEAD](#): > > ok then what do you listen to? Stuff that takes talent for one. Stuff that doesnt follow the latest “scene”. I personally think that Russian Circles and Pelican write some of the mostbrilliant music out there. Im sorry but ANY new “Metal/Hardcore” band has brought nothing new to the table with the exception of a few. Norma Jean is phenominal, as is Between the Buried and me. Any other band i listed too. Just read what i posted. Even download some of it. It wont hurt you to try some of it out. ---

> [@focusinprogress](#): > > AFI’s previous albumn rocked though Ya know what, I really don’t know why I loved that CD too. And it confused me, because I normally wouldn’t have. My tastes vary a lot with music, but I can’t get into the rock that is out now. Punk yes. The Unseens newer stuff gets me going real good. Older stuff, I like INDK’s little bit of stuff they put together, and if I am feeling ral aggressive I’ll put on some Choking Victim or Leftover Crack. And I approve of Rise Against big time. I love them long time. ---

^ yeah i agree…AFI was something i normally wouldnt be into, but that album was really good. ive been really exploring some new music lately, thanks to minisrt4…he knows the style i like and keeps turning me on to all these new bands i havent heard of. rise against is one of my favs. i REALLY like funeral for a friend though, and underoath…those are my top three at the moment. ---
