I downloaded Billy Talent's album the other week, and just listened to it now. It was a random download, and I didn't really know what to expect. Furthermore, it's not what I consider to be my type of music.. It's loud and generally I am not really into "loud" music. However, as I listen to the album more, I am starting to get used to the lead's his voice, and really enjoy the music. I'm also starting to think he has a really unique, but good, voice that stands out in a good way.

Are there any other bands out there that are similiar to Billy Talent? IE, if I like Billy Talent, there is a good chance I would also like their music..

Billy Talent has opened a door for me in a way, as I had not listened to this type of music much at all until now, but after finding I enjoy his music, I'd really like to check out some music of similar bands.

Also, does anyone know if the band (Billy Talent) is currently working on another album, and if yes, when it will be released?

Thanks!
