Behold Your New Favourite Band

They are the best new band in ages and they came to America to save us from crap rock. Behold The Hives. Discuss their greatness and if you haven't heard them download Supply and Demand.

Man, I wish a truly great rock band would come along. Theres nuthin but crap rock out now. What ever happened to the Led Zeppelins, Nirvanas, Pink Floyds, and others, who made great music, and didn't sell out to make more money?

Can't say I'm a fan of theirs either. To me they're just another indie hard rock band trying to follow the success that the Strokes had. I do with they'd give up the whole suits on stage thing too, I have no clue why bands do this, do they think it makes them look cool or something? Playing hard rock, unless you have a few lounge songs, you shouldn't be wearing a suit on stage.

That's why we should all give up on "rock" (whatever that is) and all listen and skank to ska. It's that simple. So many great ska bands out there, If everyone could just go to a ska show once a week all the world problems would be soved. It's not like it's a cult or anything. Wait, ya, it's a cult, so join me now. :devil:

And ska is good music? :rolleyes:

The hives are just one of the many british wanna be beatles bands now adays that are trying to make it in America. There music has no substance.... and just isn't that musically good. But since others brought up "good" music, why is Nirvana up there with the likes of Pink Floyd? Many of their songs were three cords and mostly bass tabs...if Kurt Cobain hadn't done himself in, no one would be talking about them nowadays.

Thanks for trying to preach your favorite band, and thanks to birdie for preaching ska, but shut up.

Nobody cares about your music, or what you think is the best band or genre. Everyone should just listen to what they like, no one should be telling another person to listent to ska, or some lame European band or whatever.

How would you like it if I started a thread saying "Hey, you all need to listen to rock music, it's simply the best, and the best band is _________." Everyone has different opinions and blah blah blah, so this thread is dumb. Do you actually expect anyone to go listen to them now, or go listen to ska birdie?

If I wanted to preach my favorite band I would preach Nirvana. I'm just spreading awareness. Its not like I was putting down any of their music. If you knew anything about the Hives you'd know the way I talked in my first post is the way the promote themselves.

Can you not tell that my post is joke? Did you click that link, cause it's a joke too. I'm not preaching to anyone. I'm making a joke. Get over it. Oh ya, good job on starting a nice little flame war. If you would just realize that people are joking it would make things easier.

The Hives are nothing special to me. I like POD and Linkin Park more. Maybe even LOTS more. The Hives are OK...

Lets reverse the roles here:

Hey you guys! I like this band called cannibal corpse. They are hardcore death metal and I think everyone will love it!

Obviously I have different tastes than others, so I dont preach bands....especially average SWEDISH bands that wont last another year or two.
