5 Bands/Musicans I've Been Listening to a Lot Lately

#1. Lifehouse

Cause there's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do… Nothing to lose
(Lifehouse - You And Me)

--I love Lifehouse so much. I quote them when I wrote in IH, I quote them when I wrote my article, I quote them in my short massage and email, I quote them in my love life, I quote them… a lot. But I never forgot to write down the disclaimer, of course. Lol.

Well, this is an American Band that consists of Jason Wade (Vocalist, Guitarist), Siergio Andrade (Bassist) and John Palmer (Drummer). Their music is so deep yet easy to hear. I love the guitar. My fav are You and Me, Mesmerized, The Joke, Sky Is Falling, Everything, Hanging By A Moment, and Sick Cycle Carousel.

#2. 311

Whenever I’m alone with you, you make me feel like I’m home again
(311 - Love Song)

I’ve been heard this band just lately, Annisa gave me Love Song and told me that it is 50 First Dates’s Ost. They do this song with some kind of reggae and a little bit ska. Lately, I know that 311 covered it from The Cure's version in 1989. Some people told me that the original version is much better that 311, but I like 311 more. I do things that The Cure's is excellent, but when I hear Robert Smith sing it, his voice make this song turned to be so frustrating--you know what I mean

#3. Dashboard Confessional

Buried deep as you can... Dig inside yourself... And hidden in the public eye. ..

(Dashboard Confessional - The Places You Have Come To Fear The Most)

--To be honest, I didn’t really like them at first . I don't know why, I just feel that their song isn't... for me. And I don't know why I have the full album of them in my laptop. I just start listening them and I hope I will fall in love with them soon :)

#4. DEPAPEPE

A new star in my playlist

--Many thanks to Malik for letting me know about them.

DEPAPEPE is a duo of Japanese guitarist,Takuya Miura and Yoshinari Takuoka. Their song is really peaceful and yet so cheerful. Their music is so much like Sakura Kaze, it's same like the title of their album (which means Sakura Breeze, if I'm not mistaken )

DEPAPEPE it self is a way for Japanese for an acoustic guitar. They used to play their own instrumental but lately they also played classical like Beethoven's, Pachelbel's, Bach's even Satie's. And the plus point, they two are cute, don't you think? *slapped*

#5.The Banery

mencintaimu adalah suatu keindahan yang tak pernah terwujud
(The Banery - So Sad)

--Salam dasi kupu-kupu, guys!!

Yep yep. This is a breakthrough band that won L. A Indifest 2009. Their single "Karena Dia" become one of the best single in L.A Indifest Album Compilation Vol: 3. Their songs are really cool. Upbeat, fun and energic. They push you to dance a bit and join singing too

.

And they are famous with their bow-ties. They never put it out wherever they go. Kinda oldies, rite? hihi. And one thing that make me admit the so much that THEY DO NO PLAGIARISM. hha. Copycat-ers?? Di bata aja, gan!! :batabig
