Sorry to the few people who actually read my blog that i seem to update rarely these days but in a way it's a good sign. I generally only blog when i'm down or bored so in that manner it looks like i haven't been either for a while eh? xD

anyways in a slight change of style I'm going to go back to what i probably should have done with the music theme to this blog which is to go over what i love the most, which is music and just trying to spread a little love for some bands people might not know.

Anyways for the next 7 days (i promise i will) i will blog about a singer or band who i really respect or enjoy listening to so one each day. I'm not even sure if i properly have 7 people to talk of...but hey. And also i will ask my readers for any music which i can listen to because it is always welcome.

So for today one of my old favourites, some people may not be aware but i really like emo bands, i'm not really a lyrics person more of the melody so the singing ability of many punk bands are incredible. And because of this i would like to introduce 30 Seconds to Mars and specifically Jared Leto who is the lead singer of the band.

Now i know this band is pretty mainstream, not much of what i listen to is that off the mainstream channel but in my opinion i don't think Jared Leto gets enough love so here's my sales pitch per se.

For those with good bandwidth who can just watch it on youtbube i'd recommend listening to The Kill and Attack. Both song's display the rather incredible range that Jared displays and are two of my favourite songs to listen to regardless of the time of day or mood. And i know from a lot people that they do not enjoy it when their band's branch out into different styles of their own music such as Linkin Park's recent Minutes To Midnight album or Muse's The Resistance. But anyone who is aspiring to be in this kind of band or even just interested in listening to a different style of punk Hurricane, off the album This Is War as well as Night of the Hunter diverge quite a bit from the original musical tone of the other albums.

Now because this is a sales pitch for more love towards Leto i am well aware some of my readers may hate emo, may not be interested and are wondering why in the world i'm writing about musicians or may understand every word that I am talking about but regardless just a head's up on some great bands.

Also just to some of my readers if you want to post up some comments on bands or singers that i should take a look at on the side shoutbox, (that's what it's for to shout at me about ideas) then i will definitely take a look at them and blog about them in my posts depending on when i get the message and how much time i get.

At any rate, hope some of you actually take a look at these bands who i talk about and in the future will be writing about band's such as Alphabeat and My Chemical Romance, as well as singers such as Gavin Degraw and Matt Wertz. But for today, cya :)
