Music - Band of the Month
in no particular order, these entries are from the month of May till September.
Framing Hanley - Rock / Alternative

Framing Hanley's "Hear Me Now" is my one of my fave songs of all-time. just take a look at my "Hear Me Now" song stream at imeem.com. 19 comments and over 14,000 plays. the sudden breakdowns in the song are sweet but sadly the other tracks fail to live up to my expectations. you can get "Home" as a free download here. Framing Hanley is a very talented band, however their sound for their debut album seems to be strangely tame. if their next album moves in the heavier direction i can expect them to sound tighter and appeal to more listeners.
Number 1 Hit:
Framing Hanley - Hear Me Now
Other Recommended Tracks:
Framing Hanley - Built For Sin
Framing Hanley - 23 Days
Framing Hanley - Home
Madina Lake - Rock / Electronica

Madina Lake was formed in 2005, and is comprised of twin brothers in vocalist Nathan Leone and bassist Matthew Leone, guitarist Mateo Camargo and drummer Dan Torelli. Very interestingly, the Leone twins first gained nationwide media recognition when they appeared together on a special episode of the television series Fear Factor, using the money they earned from eating cow guts and hanging from helicopters to pay for a demo for their new band. The $50,000 was the start up money for Madina Lake. They sent the demos in to Roadrunner Records, which ultimately landed them their record deal. Madina Lake has a refreshing and energetic sound, a band which you will want to hear on a feel-good day.
Number 1 Hit:
Madina Lake - Here I Stand
Other Recommended Tracks:
Madina Lake - Adalia
Madina Lake - House of Cards
Madina Lake - One Last Kiss
RED - Rock / Ambient

RED is an underrated Christian hard rock band which coincidentally also consists of twins in Anthony and Randy Armstrong. they are my fave band in the genre of ambient rock.
Number 1 Hit:
RED - Breathe Into Me
Other Recommended Tracks:
RED - Already Over
RED - Break Me Down
RED - Wasting Time
Papa Roach - Rock / Metal

Papa Roach's debut album Infest (2000) was very successful, reaching the status of three times platinum major label. one of the few nu-metal bands which got me listening to metal. since then, after 2 more releases, they revolutionise to a more 'rockier' sound in "The Paramour Sessions (2006)". "Forever" and "Time is Running Out" are the best tracks so far.
Number 1 Hit:
Papa Roach - Forever
Other Recommended Tracks:
Papa Roach - Time Is Running Out
Papa Roach - The World Around You
Papa Roach - To Be Loved
Paramore - Alternative / Pop

Paramore was a pretty low-profile pop punk band until they recently recorded their latest album "Riot! (2007)". Their first hit "Misery Business" is a major hit although the lyrics may sound too cocky. For weeks in August 2007, the "Misery Business" video was the number one streamed video at MTV.com. Paramore's lead vocalist is Hayley Williams, a pretty female, who will help the band to turn heads as there are few successful bands with a female lead vocalist. "Crushcrushcrush" will be the band's next single off Riot!.
Number 1 Hit:
Paramore - Misery Business
