Force_Flex Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Hello, one and all! I'm back! Few of you probably remember me, and even fewer of you that I knew are still here. I was super-duper bored and I decided to check out how the forum that sapped three years of my life was doing. I've grown to love music in my time off of YGM. Especially local music. I started to play drums in a local punk band and now that I've seen the "local music scene" I can tell you that there are A LOT of bands that deserve to be MUCH bigger than they are currently. I made this thread to attempt to spread the word of new bands that you might like, but most people probably haven't heard of. I'll start with four bands: The Yellow Team: A pop-punk band from Northern Mass area. [url="http://theyellowteam.bandcamp.com/"]http://theyellowteam.bandcamp.com/[/url] Set it Off: Orchestral Rock from Tampa, Florida. [url="http://setitoffband.com/"]http://setitoffband.com/[/url] Patent Pending: Pop-punk band from Long Island, New York. [url="http://www.patentpendingmusic.com/band"]http://www.patentpendingmusic.com/band[/url] Divided by Friday: Pop Punk band from Laurinburg, North Carolina [url="http://hopelessrecords.com/artists/divided-by-friday/"]http://hopelessrecords.com/artists/divided-by-friday/[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poc Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 theres a pretty big scene in my area, tons and tons of bands play around here (most of them suck) but its hard to get a good crowd because detroit is across the river and they bring in all the big bands. I play drums in a metal band and we play all over southern ontario, were trying to make our way into the quebec/montreal scene but its difficult since its a 12 hour drive to get there. when i get home ill post some videos of my favorite local bands.

Force_Flex Posted May 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 Please do! That's cool that you're in a metal band? What sub-genre of metal? Also, I made this thread to spread the name of local bands that should be more popular than they are. So if you have any, please post them!

Force_Flex Posted May 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 That's a sweet deal. We filmed a music video for a song because our singer was taking a class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
