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!

I've recently been learning that I don't need to be "loud and pushy" to Evangelize; just living it out is enough witness. The problem was that I grew up around strong Evangelists (Korean Christians) and they were really into getting people involved and setting out to Evangelize, and me being a a yes-man (or yes woman) I was into trying to convert people.

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! :thumb:

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.

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....".

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.
