My recent Finnish discovery is a band called So Called Plan. (From what I've heard, they are alternative rock, in case anyone is interested... but then again, I'm bad at defining rock/metal genres, so hear them for yourself. :) )
I heard 'December' on Ylex some time ago and I simply fell in love with it. The problem is I'm having a bit of a hard time finding the albums. :(


wow, I like them -jutst listinging on myspace. Thank you for the tip.

The shop liked from their myspace page http://www.recordshopx.com claims to ship worldwide.

In addtion to the awesome bands you added, you could also check out the rock band Creed. It has been disbanded since 2005 I think, but their music is still very good

After POTF my second best band will be Pendulum, this band is more like DNB and electronic. Their latest albums are just great, you guys should give it a try.

I think this is not out of the topic " Other great bands" ^^

@*Amaranthos*

I think Creed is making an awesome comeback! I just listened to the new single off the new cd!


Stone Temple Pilots are back in full! New cd! Wicked awesome! Love these guys! Yes, even Scott Weiland :wink:


Pearl Jam has a new cd with a wicked new song which the proceeds are donated to the Gulf spill. Eddie is still using that awesome grunge voice and there are some fantastic lyrics!

U2 has resumed their tour after Bono's bad back incident. Way to keep going! Love these guys a lot!

Billy Boy On Poison (Iron Works Studios Independent Production) are coming up in the charts!

Lots of great stuff coming up in the world of music!
