New Bands Round 1 A Perfect Circle vs 3 Doors Down

[Vampyr]

A Perfect Circle

3 Libras
Threw you the obvious
And you flew with it on your back
A name
In your recollection,
Down among a million say:

Difficult not to feel a little bit
Disappointed and passed over
When I LOOK right through
See you naked but oblivious

And you don't

See

Me.

But I threw you the obvious
Just to see if there's more behind the
Eyes of a fallen angel
Eyes of a tragedy.

Here I am expecting just a little bit
Too much from the wounded.
But I see, see through it all
SEE THROUGH.

See you.

CUZ I threw you the obvious
To see what occurs behind the
Eyes of a fallen angel,
eyes of a tragedy.

Oh well.
Oh well.
Apparently nothing.
Apparently nothing at all.

You don't
You don't
You don't see me!

You don't
You don't
You don't see me!

You don't
You don't
You don't see me!

You don't
You don't
You don't see me!

You don't
see me!

You don't
You don't
You don't see me at all.


3 Doors Down

Kryptonite
I took a walk around the world to
Ease my troubled mind
I left my body laying somewhere
In the sands of time
I watched the world float to the dark
Side of the moon
I feel there is nothing I can do, yeah

I watched the world float to the
Dark side of the moon
After all I knew it had to be something
To do with you
I really don’t mind what happens now and then
As long as you’ll be my friend at the end

If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I’m alive and well, will you be
There holding my hand
I’ll keep you by my side with
My superhuman might
Kryptonite

You called me strong, you called me weak,
But still your secrets I will keep
You took for granted all the times I
Never let you down
You stumbled in and bumped your head, if
Not for me then you would be dead
I picked you up and put you back
On solid ground

If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I’m alive and well, will you be
There holding my hand
I’ll keep you by my side with my
Superhuman might
Kryptonite

If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I’m alive and well, will you be
There holding my hand
I’ll keep you by my side with my
Superhuman might
Kryptonite

Yeah!

If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I’m alive and well, will you be there
Holding my hand
I’ll keep you by my side with
My superhuman might
Kryptonite

I didnt have any influence on the old bands list..that was Zebra's job. Although I must say, Tom Petty is one of my favorite bands of all time.

Ok, so out of the bands you posted that you DO like, I've included some of those. Both Zwan and the Pumpkins on are the new bands list, and so are a few others.

Sorry Null..no Tom Petty. I completely forgot about Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers..., but there wouldn't have been room anyway.

These are both bands I haven't really heard much of, though I hear praise about A Perfect Circle sometimes. I can't really vote.

[Dyne]

Null likes some pretty good music. For more good modern music Vampyr, see my thread where I listed my suggestions for the music battle.

lol. not quite got your labels right. but anywho.


much of that stuff is more a throwback to the good days of music. listening to some of that it has a much more feel of the older stuff. example, some of jet reminds me a bit of the stones.


a lot of the stuff today is basically all the same, then theres a lot that cant play at all and basically just beat on the instaments, and then scream at the top of thier lungs into the mic because they have no music voice at all. oh yea, talent there. hehe

Yes, I'm deffinatly planning to download some music from the bands you have posted. One of the best joys I get out of life is listening to new music that I havnt heard of before.
