Does anyone know this band?

Big Chris · 11 Apr 2006 at 18:38

Just caught the end of a vid on Scuzz by a band I think were called Khona. Google won't tell me anything about them, and neither will allmusic.com, which means I've probably got the name wrong.

I know I'll never see the vid again because my luck is like that, so does anyone know what I'm rambling on about?

you pretty much have the choice of three bands called 'kona'
-two emo/screamo/alternative
( http://www.myspace.com/konamusic or http://www.myspace.com/konab )
-and one acoustic folk rock
( http://www.myspace.com/kona )
i guess if it's on skuzz, it'll probably be one of the former

More importantly, what were you doing watching Scuzz?

It's either that, Kerrang or MTV2. As much as Scuzz plays a lot of crap, they have some decent vids on their playlist. Whereas MTV2 are clearly on the payroll of NME, and Kerrang are just....well, Kerrang.

Hmmm... thanks for the suggestion Miss Locks, but there was definitely an H in the name somewhere, and I'm almost sure if was after the K, hence me thinking Khona.

I'm sure I've seen that a few times on Scuzz, you're bound to see it again 'cause even though I can't remember what they are called I do recognise the sort of name

EDIT: a quick look on the Scuzz site reveals http://www.scuzz.tv/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=45&Itemid=60

Khoma 'Medea'

ROFL! I have actually seen some decent stuff on Scuzz, it was the first place I saw DragonForce and now I'm hooked.. okay it's not my ideal music channel but Kerrang! only play emo-angst-teen rock and MTV has no music any more, just celeb exposé shows.

MTV2 does have some good stuff on it. MTV Banned at like midnight had Type O Negative, Sepultura, Aphex Twin etc... MTV 120 Minutes has had Sigur Ros, The Mars Volta, At The Drive-In and various other bands.

Scuzz is also alright, and can play some pretty decent stuff from time to time.

I haven't seen a good video on Kerrang! in about two years though, it's shockingly bad, and their playlist really does consist of about twenty videos which they loop.

There used to be a pretty good music channel called 'The Amp' but it seems to have disappeared now.
