Strangly enough I still listen to them now and then. Probably more so because my Brother has always been a pretty big fan, and it's about the only thing we both have in common. I can happily listen to their stuff, even saw them live when they were in Melbourne a few years back (or was it last year?).

Granted they're nothing spectacular, similar with Grinspoon who've fallen far from the awesomeness of New Detention.

edit: and I was listening to Unwritten Law a good 9 years ago.

Rammstein, RHCP and SoaD are nice. But far from favorite.

Zyklon is pretty gut. Also King Crimson. And lots inbetween.

Yeah they were pretty rat shit in Melbourne live too. But them being the support act to some shitty teeny boppy punk band as well as the venue being bad (and not having good positions in relation to the speaker setup, etc). Still, I really only listen to them because it gives me a connection to my Brother, who apart from Reel Big Fish, we have very little in common at all.

@ Pip: just add electric guitars and you're done ;)
@ Smiley: DKMs are good, real good. Folk Punk, who would've thought?

DJ Krush is a very well-versed DJ, and he's made some beats that are by far some of my favorites. One of his beats, and the most relaxing one I've ever heard to date, "Dig This Vibe", was in the first Blade movie.

Bought the album "Warriors Spirit", and been listening to it for days. I feel like putting up a dartboard and painting clovers on the wall.

Any other you can recommend?


Also been listening to Eels lately, kinda whack singer they have, but nice background music.

Well, Irish and celtic influenced folk rock / heavy metal scene isn't that extraordinary, really... On top of my hat I could say:

Flogging Molly
Skyclad
The Real McKenzies
.... and of course something not quite similar, but in the general direction, at least:
Korpiklaani
Elvenking
Týr
The Lord Weird Slough Feg
