Something Coporate
June 4th, 2008
I don’t really post about big mainstream bands, but i couldn’t help myself when it comes to Something Corporate.
This is one of my favorite bands, I’ve been listening to them since i was in grade 11. The mixture of piano and rock really astounds me. I have their DVD at my house, and let me tell you, both their sound and performances amaze me. You definitely can’t get much better than Something Corporate when it comes to shows.
Although Andrew(lead singer/piano) was diagnosed with Acute Lymphatic Leukemia, he has since recovered and is now cancer free. He now plays in the band Jack’s Mannequin and is still rocking it out.
Though Jack’s Mannequin is still piano type rock, it has a different sound and will never be the same as Something Corporate. Their unique shows and songs showed the world what it’s like to rock out on the piano.
If you have never heard of this band, or are like many people and are like “Shit, I heard this band before but it was some long ass song and then turned it off”(AKA Konstantine @ 9:00 ish in length). Check them out @ somethingcorporate.com, Youtube, or just borrow the DVD off me.
I can definitely say this band is top notch, I think I’ve learned every single one of their songs on piano. And I’m Proud of it!
Know some other good bands? Don’t hesitate to drop me a message on the contact page.

agreed. its still andrew, so jm is automatically better than half the bands out there, but its just not soco. there was something different about the songs he wrote when he was with them. and as amazing as some of the jacks songs are [dark blue, in particular], for me nothing will top north- and me & the moon. there’s just something about it that goes when you’re elated or pissed or depressed. its perfection.
