CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

I"m not sure if this is the right place to post this thread, but where else can I?

Umm, I just found out about a boy group(from http://www.amazon.com ) called "Plus One", who apparently are a Christian group. They play some pop stuff and some semi slow stuff(at least for me).

I heard a song called "kick me (when I'm down)" and I really like it! It is pop and maybe some techno. It has "edge" to it, or as I think "sharpness". And the boys seem so be singing with almost sarcasm, which I like.

THE POINT OF THIS THREAD is I'm wondering if anyone knows of any other singers or songs that are similar to this song: pop, techno, SARCASM, edge.

I'de really like to know if there's some more stuff out there like that.

Here's the link to the CD page

This might be the direct link to the song, click on listen: Listen
Is it alright to link to the amazon.com place? It's legal, right?

Thanks for your time!

Oh, yeah, I've heard of Plus One. They came out back when the boy bands were really strong. But this thread would probably be better in the Jam Session forum. *nodnod* Anyways, as far as reccommendations go, Mae might be a band that's right up your alley. They are a little more rock, but they have a really nice, soft sound, and a lot of their songs are a bit slower. Hey, they even have an instrumental techno song! XD Hope you like what you hear!

This really belongs in Jam Session unless we're thinking about starting a Christian Anime Alliance music podcast, in which case participants have to pony up the cash for the royalties or something like that. What you need to do is go and buy The White Beyond by Industrial/Synthpop act ThouShaltNot and Atomika by Synthpop act Paradoxx.

Ummm....Plus One has been around since I was like...14. They really aren't new news.

So what's your point? People discover music thats new to them all the time.

Oh, I forgot, you'll want to find Synthpops! by Midiboy. You should be able to pick it up at http://www.antiphonic.com I believe.

Just saying. It would be like saying "Hey, I found this new band called "The Goo Goo Dolls"! Anyone heard of them?" The orginal post just struck me as odd.

Anyways, they aren't necessarily....pop but I suggest looking into a band called Shaded Red.

That's just the thing, his original post never says the word "new", but rather "I just discovered....".

Thanks for replying!

Ooh, I remember Plus One. XD Their second CD was so much better than their first. I wish I could remember what I did with that CD...

Let's see...pop with a sarcasm to it...pop with sarcasm...hmm...nothing much is coming to mind now...x.x;

Though they aren't sarcastic you should check out Copeland Tigerchu. If you want some sarcastic expiremental pop try checking out Discover America.

Ooooh, take ThatDude's advice. Copeland is amaaazing. Beneath the Medicine Tree and In Motion are fantastic albums.

Thanks. I gave it a listen. It doesn't seem to be my type.

Lol... Only took ya six years but ya finally got around to checking it out only to find ya didn't like it much... That's gotta be disappointing.

Yeah, well they were new to me. Living in Saudi kinda does that to you. ("Living under a rock")
Yay Plus One!
