I have a great idea as I am being really facetious, lets just give all major rock bands their own channel and be done with it. We have all types of music channels, we need a goth/industrial/darkwave channel. We need a channel for geek stuff like what TechTV was with Leo Laporte, Kate Botello, and Patrick Norton.

no prems add these channels and get rid of the 5 or 6 no name sports channels

Which are the noname sports channels? I only know of (and listen to) Sports Central, ESPN Radio, and NFL network. I know there are some play by play channels, but I don't even know what they play when games aren't on.

I'd listen to a goth channel, but I'd imagine it would be gone within a few months of being launched. It's too niche.

there are so many subdivisions of goth and industrial, you can have all sorts of shows. I can tell you with all the movements and bring in "gothic beauty" mag, with "Dark side of the net" and even Fangoria and such, it would be a lifestyle, music, horror, macabre, even a bit of home decor, recipies by the listeners. I see a music based (more than 65%), then the rest is what I said above. OutQ plays a bit of tunes with a life channel to back it up, we are almost the reverse!!!

My problem is you have channel like Hard Attack that has Metallica, Slayer, Pantera and all these different bands. I don't metallica. I'm looking for Stratovarius, Kamelot, Sonata Arctica, Drangfore and Gamma Ray. Many of these are finnish and fall under either Power Metal or Speed Metal. There is no mentions of these bands on any of the channels. Something like Stratovarius is far superior to me than something like Metallica. I could care less about Metallica.

I need to bring this back to the forefront, I am noticing I hear the same songs over and over again, I feel like I am listening to BAB on the Island!!!! I still want my Goth channel.

We either need a European Metal channel, or start incorporating more Euro metal into the Hard Attack playlist. I get a little tired of the "American" metal that's overplayed on Hard Attack. Sometimes I feel like Hard Attack has that terrestial radio feel to it, especially when new songs are played 3-4 times a day, day after day. There are so many great bands from Europe and all around the globe that would give so much depth to Hard Attack. I enjoy Hard Attack, but they need to broaden the horizon.
