Tommy Posted 5 December 2005 Posted 5 December 2005 Thought it would be quite good to start a completely new thread dedicated to new bands that you have discovered of any type of music. I'll get the ball rolling with these gems http://www.milburnmusic.com/ Milburn are a four piece band from Sheffield. Milburn's music have recently been described to have the same aggresive riffs of The Jam which meets the contemporary hooks of The Libertines And also The Kiks http://www.thekiks.co.uk/ Southampton band ‘The Kiks’ were partially formed in autumn 2004 when members of a former band Paul McGeachie, and Reggie Bryant, reunited to build the foundations of the band they are today.

Cobbo Posted 7 December 2005 Posted 7 December 2005 The Kiks http://www.thekiks.co.uk/ Southampton band ‘The Kiks’ were partially formed in autumn 2004 when members of a former band Paul McGeachie, and Reggie Bryant, reunited to build the foundations of the band they are today. They're just one n short of being a great band. Cheap imitation <_<
Mark Posted 8 December 2005 Posted 8 December 2005 http://www.herwordskill.co.uk Mixing the passion and intensity of metal-core with their own ear for melody and ambient, Her Words Kill formed in the Autumn of 2003 determined to sound like nothing else. Connors’s down and dirty style of vocals playing off against Luke’s angelic singing accompanied by a score of sick breakdowns, catchy riffs and haunting melodies, the band have gained a local reputation as THE band to watch.
Libertine Posted 8 December 2005 Posted 8 December 2005 I saw a band called Ariel X on tele earlier, not sure how new they are, but I thought they were very good.
Phil Posted 11 December 2005 Posted 11 December 2005 not really a new band as they have been about for a wee while now but morning runner are set to release their first album in january and I think there gonna be the next big thing.

Tommy Posted 21 December 2005 Author Posted 21 December 2005 Imogen Heap It’s no surprise Heap emanates a burning self-belief. ‘Speak For Yourself’ has been a test of her abilities; a test she’s passed with glowing colours: “In the past there were times when I wished I had been listened to,†she says, “but I’ve never really known if I was right. This time, from the start I’ve done things my way.†Part cool ’n’ collected statuesque beauty, part thrilled eight year old, Imogen Heap is struggling to contain her excitement. “I feel nothing can stop me,†she says through a huge grin. “This is just the beginning and I can’t sit still with excitement to see how things are going to pan out.â€Â
MC Prussian Posted 24 December 2005 Posted 24 December 2005 Pepper's Ghost from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: I bought their debut Live CD "Opening Night" a couple of years ago and I still have it at home. Fresh rock with a light note of genius. The Philadelphia Inquirer described it as "Paul McCartney in a Motown Cabaret, directed by David Bowie". I'm not sure whether this album is still for sale. In the meantime, they have already released two more (mini-) albums: Arena (7 songs) Shake The Hand That Shook The (13 songs) Review from Amazon.ca: "Philadelphia pop/rockers Pepper's Ghost raised a few eyebrows with their heavily orchestrated, '70s-AOR-inspired debut album, Opening Night, in 2001. After a stopgap EP and a little tinkering with their musical direction, they returned with 2005's Shake the Hand That Shook the World. Produced by Andy Johns (U.K. engineer to the stars, brother of the late Glyn Johns, and producer of Television's magnificent Marquee Moon), the album is unapologetically Big with a capital B. Though the songs aren't as fussily arranged as the group's prior work, songs like "Everything and Anything" are shot through with Brian May-size guitar lines, sweet Todd Rundgren-style harmonies, and an unabashed fondness for the Big Rock Chorus. While the early Queen cops of "Heavy Body Bag," with Anthony Montesano's campy, dramatic lead vocals and a particularly George Harrison-like slide guitar fill, recall the endearing excesses of Opening Night, the rest of the album is closer to Cheap Trick, Frampton Comes Alive!, and Wings' less fruity side. Only the somewhat inappropriately loud and booming drum mix keeps Shake the Hand That Shook the World from sounding like a lost AOR treasure from 1976. ~ Stewart Mason, All Music Guide"
Sigma Posted 28 December 2005 Posted 28 December 2005 I saw Milburn play at The Charlotte a few months back and thought they were decent enough. Although I thought The Harrisons were better on the night.
