Potie Sesh
this band definitely gets a thumbs up, but i don't know if i love them. they stand out in my mind above a lot of other artists, not exactly sure why. might be the name.
i like the singers style. i like memories and run child. the afterlife sounds a little more like those currently-trendy-rock-boy-bands which i don't like the sound of. so. i'll have to hear more to know what i really think.
the other thing. the name is a bit weird to me.
my sister has a habit of shortening every word in existence (ex. lotion, she says low-shh) and just generally throwing out strange funny phrases. anyway, i guess it's po-tee sesh. but in my mind i think of my sister saying she's leaving for a potty sesh, in which case she'd be heading to the bathroom for a bit of time :D

this is nice. "hands of time" is really cool. but. i don't see this as something i'd be listening to again, just because it's not really my style. thumbs up.

my first introduction was "forensic abolitionist - applaud the cause" and i knew pretty much instantly this one would be a thumbs up. i added that track to my favorites. nice vocals, lyrics, delivery, beats. i don't know about "puppet people", but i'll probably end up voting for this artist. thumbs up!

SP THE SPECIALIST
i like this guys voice and delivery (a bit serious, hard, harsh). don't know that the music in full really catches my attention though. would have to spend more than a few minutes checking it out to get more of an opinion. thumbs up.

eeew, R&B makes me vomit. sorry. but um... if you like R&B you'll probably love this artist. their bio boasts that they're UMA's (underground music award) best male R&B group and i'd assume it's true. thumbs up.

i dont know if i really like this band, but i know someone out there will like them. i go for "pissed off" more than "having a good time" and this just isn't pissed off enough, lol. i dont know, i think they're growing on me. male vocals + male & female back-up. fast is always good. anyway, i'd say check 'em out. i'm pretty sure i'll be giving them my vote.

um. i absolutely hate the sound of a violin, but this gets a thumbs up because i can't be a good judge of it. does sound like there might be a few mistakes in some spots. i really don't know.

Rock Anonymus
most people might wonder why the hell this is in thumbs up. but. i do actually find this one to be a bit amusing. and. if they were serious, i bet they actually could have a decent band. so. thumbs up. but you might not like it.

LUME Big Band
not something i'm into, but check them out if you are into jazzy-type ensembles. "free style boogie" is pretty cool.
"LUME (Lisbon Underground Music Ensemble) is a collective of 15 musicians with diverse backgrounds and experiences in the fields of jazz, pop, rock, classic, contemporary and improvised music...."

i liked this when i first heard it quickly, but upon stopping back a few months later and listening more closely, i don't think it's something that stands out so much. still thumbs up though.
