I mean, now that they're shutting AGgie and Kazaa down, it's a good time for final download rush, especially since everyone else might think so, too, and you might find actually find something there. So, since no-one would ever use those networks for porn or something else legal, and it's always helpful for other people to tell you what to think, I started this thread so we all can get some hints for what to download.
I want people to tell a bit about the bands, too, not just list it - that way, we can actually decide for ourself whether it sounds good enough to DL or not. And don't tell about bands other people have already suggested
And if there are anti-filesharing prissies, they may buy the records or steal them the old-fashioned way or whatever. NO, MING, PLEASE DON'T CLOSE MY THREAD, IT'S ALL LEGAL, SEE?
I'll start with... well, Dead Kennedys, of course. Californian hardcore punk (except I've never thought of them as hardcore, since hardcore mostly sucks and Dead Kennedys don't) from start of the eighties. The band plays very well, you just have to love the way Jello Biafra sings, and lyrics manage to be funny without being empty-headed and intelligent without being preachy. For starters, try
Dead Kennedys California Über Alles
Dead Kennedys Holiday in Cambodia
Dead Kennedys Kill the Poor
Dead Kennedys Moon over Marin
Dead Kennedys Halloween
Dead Kennedys Trust your Mechanic
Dead Kennedys Straight A's
(See? I even put them in easy-to-copy-paste-and-download format! Aren't I nice?)

Let me extol the virtues of Bad Religion, my favourite punk group, and have been on the go for a damn long time. The band that brought the punk scene back to life in the late 80s with their album 'Suffer' which would have probably died a death otherwise, and formed the basis of modern punk, without which none of your modern punk bands such as Offspring, Green Day or Pennywise, to name a few, would ever have existed. Plus the lead guitarist, Brett Gurewitz was responsible for founding Epitaph, now a large punk label, without which many of the newer punk bands would have had never had a platform to perform on either.
Recommended tracks:
Bad Religion - You
Bad Religion - I Want To Conquer The World
Bad Religion - Do What You Want
Bad Religion - Suffer
Bad Religion - Modern Man
Bad Religion - Anesthesia
Bad Religion - Generator
Bad Religion - Atomic Garden
Bad Religion - Heaven Is Falling
Bad Religion - Marked
Bad Religion - Leaders And Followers
Bad Religion - Punk Rock Song
Bad Religion - Against The Grain
Bad Religion - F**k Armageddon, This Is Hell.
Bad Religion - American Jesus
Bad Religion - Kyoto Now!
Bad Religion - 21st Century Digital Boy
Quite a comprehensive list, pick and choose, or download the lot if you have the bandwidth

I would be tempted to blame them for that, but then some bastard like Snapcase would start blaming the Pixies for all the boring Pixies imitators.
On the other hand, you seem proud of it... .

How? When? Why?
I recently invested in a zip drive, to take advantage of the high download speeds in my faculty. I can download 300MB in 45' there. Don't tell me that it's over, like Napster was!
Oh, and I suggest Body Count. They're black, they're angry, they're rockin and rappin. If you like Rage Against the Machine, they are more original. Try these for a start...
BodyCount is in the House
Cop Killer
Strippers
Dead Man Walking
Violent Demise
I also like Ronnie James Dio, Ritchie Blackmore, Savatage and Statovarious for ballads.
For paiktis: get everything you can from Asimos and Panousis!

I'd have to go with my favorite band of all time: Joy Division.
British rock band whose career was short and yet very influential. Started in 1977 under the name Warsaw, influenced by punk. They changed their name to Joy Division in 1978 and in 1979 they released their first album, "Unknown Pleasures". Polished by producer Martin Hannett, their sound started to deviate from punk standards, presenting dark and moody songs, frequently depressive, with wonderful lyrics by singer Ian Curtis. Their second album, "Closer", was released shortly after Ian Curtis commited suicide, in May 1980. They have influenced a lot of other post-punk bands, and their remaining members started anew under the name New Order.
Songs:
Disorder
Love Will Tear Us Apart
Transmission
Atmosphere
Isolation
A Means to an End
Passover
Atrocity Exhibition
The Eternal
Decades
Day of the Lords
New Dawn Fades
She's Lost Control
I Remember Nothing
Twenty-Four Hours
(just to name a few)
