I ran through some of the challenges in my last blog with my DJ son and he’s come up with enough bands to complete both the A-Z of new music and 31 days of new music. Every day in August I am going to listen to a minimum of 1 song. Not the most taxing of challenges but it’s fun, it’s something new and I’m really pleased one of my family joined in. He’s now trying to do something similar for his radio show. This makes me so happy. All the bands are a variation of roc & metal. I’ve listed them below in case anyone wishes to listen to something new themselves. There are 2 or 3 to choose from in each alphabet category:

A – Asking Alexandria (Alter Bridge, Architects, Amaranthe)
B – Breaking Benjamin (Bullet For My Valentine, Bowling For Soup)
C – Children of Bodom (Coheed and Cambria, Clutch)
D – Dream Theater (Dead Sara, Digital Summer, Dead by April)
E – Enter Shikari (Extreme, Eyes Set to Kill, Electric Callboy)
F – From First to Last (Fozzy, Faith No More, Fever 333)
G – Ghost (God Forbid, Gojira)
H – Halestorm (The HU, HammerFall, Hardcore Superstar)
I – Ice Nine Kills (In Flames, I Am Ghost)
J – Jinjer (Judas Priest, Jupiter Falls)
K – Kill Hannah (Kontrust, Killswitch Engage, Killer Be Killed)
L – Love and Death (Lamb of God, Light the Torch)
M – Mastodon (Mudvayne, Machine Head, Machinae Supremacy)
N – Nightwish (New Found Glory, Nekonomicon)
O – Of Mice & Men (Opeth, ONI)
P – Parkway Drive (Powerwolf, Periphery)
Q – Queensryche (Queens of the Stone Age, Quiet Riot)
R – Rivers of Nihil (Rammstein, Rush, Rise Against)
S – Sixx:AM (Sabaton, Sevendust, Seether)
T – Tyr (Trivium, Tremonti, Taking Back Sunday)
U – Udo Dirkschneider/U.D.O. (The Used, Underoath)
V – Vains of Jenna (Volbeat, Van Canto)
W – W.A.S.P. (Within Temptation, The Wildhearts)
X – X-Japan (The xx)
Y – Yngwie Malmsteen (Young Guns)
Z – Zebrahead (Zac Brown Band. ZZ Top)

That’s the 26 letters of the alphabet. For the remaining 5 we are using bands with numbers in their names and will choose from these:

10 Years,

12 Stones,

36 Crazyfists,

38 Special,

3 Inches of Blood,

311,

I started with the letter 'a,' and I listened to a group called The Apples in Stereo (ignore the 'the'). I'm only listening to an album for now, but what I heard I liked pretty well! Don't know how often I'd listen to them, but I definitely would if it came on!
