Rock n roll seems kind of dead right now. It'll come back like it always does but right now it's taking a bad beating from the dubstep idiots and the pop sluts. Kind of all around depressing IMO.

Dig out some tartan, pour a stout, and ditch the misery!

Quite like those guys!

They sound a lot like 'Great Big Sea'. (Or Great big Sea sounds like them.)

Thanos Thanos:

I don't hate keyboards. They're a legit instrument that takes talent and they've been a major part of r&r since Ray Manzarek came along. Too many great '80's bands like New Order or Gary Numan used keyboards to the extreme, and I've even got a lot of respect for the way they're used by groups like The Chemical Brothers or Prodigy. I'm not tolerant at all though of the way computer-generated sounds are becoming so dominant. And I especially don't like the way computer-enhanced sounds like autotune are being used to hide weak vocals. Maybe it's because the "songs" that are using these techniques are the typical "love me baby!" and "party! party! party!" themes that are lacking in any sort of meaningful substance. If it was more serious and was aimed at something more than a bunch of vapid ecstasy-dropping Friday night club cretins I'd be able to see some value in it. From what I can tell though it's just typical pop-music pap that means nothing and stands for nothing.

The kids are all right, Thanos. The stuff you're hearing is not the stuff they're listening to. My kids are 10 and 8 and they're into Rihanna and Carly Ray Maybe (Hey, she does say "call me Maybe"!) I don't imagine they'll be into that when they're older.. I sure hope not. Cool music is a great gift from god that helps teenagers suvive puberty with their sanity intact.

And if you're whipping off great rock-n-roll keyboardists, please don't leave out the piano players (Billy Preston, Freddie Mercury, Nicky Hopkins, dude from Supertramp).

Oh yeah, and I quite like Bruno Mars. Sorry, that guy can sing. Sue me.

You think? I think Flogging Molly is the most interesting band currently working. Great Big Sea, sorry, does nothing for me. Yawn.

Define edgier. Got an example of the type of electronic you're looking for?

Irish folk bands do tend to have a similar sound. GBS is one of the few bands I've seen in concert more than twice. Always a party attitude, and they tend to play small venues - like the Fort McMurray Keyano theater.

I'm more of a Scaninavian/Slavic metal head, but I'm not married to it.

Quite liked, for example, that Funker Vogt Unsound posted. Skrillex First of the Year was good. Probably not danceable. Pushing the envelope.

I did the same for my son one day when his mom wasn't home.

That's not too bad!

I like bands like Tyr or Gamma Ray for their really tight guitar, or Sonata Arctica for some amazing lyrics. I'll have to look those guys up!
