I thought that it would be fun to have a "band of the day". Here is how it will go, I will post a few songs from a band and you guys can rate, discuss, and criticize the band. Forgive me if I am not able to post one everyday, because I am currently very busy with soccer. If you would like to post a band, let me know on my profile. Don't just post it, wait till I give you the go ahead.
Rules - Try to keep posts a couple sentences long - Don't just rate the band then leave the thread - Look at all of the posted songs before you decided to criticize or discuss the band - Obviously, follow all of Armor Games' rules.

Queen-From the ablum "Hello Avalanche" The Way Things Go- From the Album "Identification Parade"
The last two songs, "Queen" and "The Way Things Go" I couldn't find official music videos, sorry.
Well, considering that the first "band of the day" was a flop...I decided that I would try again.

Here are a few songs by them The Way We Get By-From the album "Kill The Moonlight"
Well, I dunno. They didn't wow me, but I think they're actually quite nice. They lack a bit of variety within each song, but I imagine they're good to listen to if you have some calm time to spend.
I would agree with you Hahihi, they can get a bit reptetive after a while, especially with the piano, but they are fun to listen to for a while. You kinda have to be in the mood for them.
Hey! I actually got some comments! I'll keep going.
