hardcore and indie music

I lived in Providence, East Providence and Riverside on and off for six years - never made the time/effort to go diving around RI (I never owned a car and couln't afford a decent drysuit, which didn't help my RI diving prospects) - one of my big regrets.

 

@ harry: Aside by the weakerthans is the closing song on the wedding crashers. Thursday is old school emo!

@ Andy: Elastica and Flaming lips are awesome! Should I feel old now?

@ Rapid: Lemonheads is one my favourites! I can't remember the album name, but it has the songs: great big no, it's about time, favourite T, Big gay heart. Great album.

@ Tanked: Got any punk/ska indie bands that I could listen to? I've got some on my mp3 list and I'll post them up later (I'm at lab). I agree that all this mainstream emo crap is horrendous. But try listening to some older stuff and it ain't as bad. I definitely don't like the style that's associated with it now, Lifetime is a classic emo band that you'll probably like.
