Re: Soundwave 2011.

incredibly underwhelming, even more so when compared to last years line up

Re: Soundwave 2011.

My thoughts exactly.

Primus, Deftones and Soundgarden would be great, as would SOAD (though I haven't listened to them in ages and am over them), but jeez, the 2010 lineup was far better, assuming most of these rumoured bands do end up playing next year.

 

[Damon_3388]

Re: Soundwave 2011.

The Gaslight Anthem and Deftones are really all that's needed to convince me to go.

Slayer, System of a Down and Soundgarden would be icing on the cake.

Re: Soundwave 2011.

Figured I'd make a posts purely to link people to confirmed bands Myspaces, a couple of youtube links to songs to get feel of the band. I'm just selecting random songs off youtube to link. Feel free to recommend other songs to listen to.

Re: Soundwave 2011.

Weezer would be awesome, but yeah I doubt it will happen

 

[Darcy S]

Re: Soundwave 2011.

Trash Talk! Amazing. As is Protest The Hero and rumours of Machine Head and Polar Bear Club are awesome.

Personally, I'm hoping for
Say Anything (could happen, album out last year, havent been here since.),
Murderdolls (also possible, I believe they have a new one out this year so could be touring)
Ceremony (unlikely though Trash Talk being present suggests maybe soundwave arent so averse to crazy hardcore bands)
Brand New (unlikely but id love this so much)
Dead Swans
La Dispute
Billy Talent
We Are The Ocean

Definitely a pretty ambitious wishlist for me but I don't think it's all that unrealistic. I reckon Stone Sour will be on there though

 

[Hawks1523]

Re: Soundwave 2011.

I'd love Brand New to come out for Soundwave, but I highly doubt it considering they were just here a couple of months ago.

I think Stone Sour will be on the lineup too.

 

[00Stinger]

Re: Soundwave 2011.

System of a Down, Bush and Soundgarden would be friggin awesome!

 

[Brad Goodman]

Re: Soundwave 2011.

I'll go just for Mad Caddies.

 

[wce_all_da_way]

Re: Soundwave 2011.

Weezer, Soundgarden and Slayer (even though I've seen them a few times before) would be cool. The rest of that potential lineup is very underwhelming. Would be terribly disappointing to see that happen after having Faith No More and NIN in recent years with some amazing smaller bands as well.

Re: Soundwave 2011.

crabcore comin'...

 

[Suspense]

Re: Soundwave 2011.

sky eats airplane would be cool though...

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

Re: Soundwave 2011.

I can confirm another artist not playing:

Jimi Hendrix

But seriously, far too early for any decent band annoucements yet. Nothing currently on that list or potential list excities me about Soundwave 2011

 

[La Dispute]

Primus, Deftones and Soundgarden would be great, as would SOAD (though I haven't listened to them in ages and am over them), but jeez, the 2010 lineup was far better, assuming most of these rumoured bands do end up playing next year.

Correct.

Gaslight Anthem would also be sweet.

 

[Zarrix]

Re: Soundwave 2011.

I was hoping that the lineup would be good enough for me to attend next year, but none of the rumours interest me the slightest.

this post gets 5 crabcores out of 5

 

[HugeJohnson]

Re: Soundwave 2011.

I hope they get some more metal bands in to that lot. Would love to see Kreator, Paradise Lost, Opeth or Rammstein added. Buckethead would be awesome too.....

5th Band is..

Re: Soundwave 2011.

Any chance of Atreyu playing?

Re: Soundwave 2011.

A few people requested them when wishlists were posted. Not too sure how likely them playing are though, but who knows?

Band #6 will be announced tonight on Short.Fast.Loud from 10pm.

Re: Soundwave 2011.

Oz needs a true metal fest. It's time. Emo's can have their own festival. Let's do it.

Re: Soundwave 2011.

Wow, that looks truly terrible. I was absolutely stoked and loved it a few years back with The Offspring and Incubus headlining.
