Come on tell me. Mine is Linkin Park.http://www.poster.net/linkin-park/linkin-park-group-4004271.jpg

This has been done to death already.

linkin park is not your favorite band.

Christina Aguliara.

AFI

They are awesomer than your band. So what if Davey Havoc (The lead singer) is gay. It only enables him to sing higher. This band kicks ass. Their newest CD Sing the Sorrow is the only CD I listen to now.

Jimi Hendrix is a great one....

Trilok Gurtu + Pat Metheny Group

it wouldnt matter if i said who my favorite band was because the likelihood of any of you knowing who they are is slim.

Who is my favourite "music band"?

Did you suspect I had a favourite band that didn't play music?

'Band' doesn't always mean musical band.

My favorite band has to be one of Radiohead, Sigur Ros and Muse. It moves back and forth between them but if I had to go and live on a island for 10 years, I'd probably take my Muse cds.

apendrapew:

Show me where you found out that Davey Havoc was gay, and then I'll believe you.

The inspiration. Syd.

I'm computer illiterate. The previous post was a mistake.

That Emperor CD is great.

It's the only one I have by them. Can your recommend any of their other works? I listened to one of their more recent albums in a store and I didn't like it nearly as much.

Emperor's new stuff, although I enjoy it, sucks in terms of black metal and doesn't have that epic and 'evil' atmosphere. Avoid their albums "IX Equilibrium" "Reverence" and "Prometheus". While these new albums are infinitely more complex, they end up sucking due to their own technical overload.

"Nightside Eclipse" is their best album by far, but try "Anthems To The Welkin At Dusk". Anthems was the first album in black metal that was coined "Viking metal". Anthems has cleaner vocals, machine gun drums and fair production, but it carries that distinct Emperor feel in terms of emotional weight. Try listening to it first.

"Wrath Of The Tyrant" is a gem you might like to pick up. It is their old demo tape set to CD that sounds like they were playing under water. It is very atmospheric and epic, but you might be turned off by the horrible production.

If you enjoyed Nightside Eclipse, you REQUIRE Sacramentum: Far Away From The Sun. It's in the same vein, but Sacramentum uses an At The Gates/In Flames melodic metal style combined with epic keyboards and rather stale vocals (don't worry, they aren't that bad). The cover art for Far Away From The Sun is actually done by the same artist that did the Nightside Eclipse cover.



http://www.anus.com/metal/images/sacramentum2.jpg

http://www.anus.com/metal/sacramentum.html

their singer has an awesome voice. i listen to in the nightside eclipse and i find myself entranced by the overall effect this record has. his voice is really great. he doesnt sound like he's TRYING to be evil...he just is. amazing shit.

i will check out sacramentum as soon as i can.

Well, any band who has the morality to put their music above their politics is exceptional in my mind. The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and Weezer are incredible bands. Radiohead...


...Radiohead had a very bright future with 'Pablo Honey', and then they got ambitious and made the bends, which was awesome. But then they made 'Ok Computer'.

'Ok Computer'=steaming pile of lefty shit.
'Amnesiac'=see above
'Kid A'=see above
'Hail to the Thief'=*painful groan*


What can I say?

Well, any band who has the morality to put their music above their politics is exceptional in my mind. The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and Weezer are incredible bands. Radiohead...

All music is political, regardless of the author being aware of it. Art reflects the values of the composer, thus it is bound to their political idealogy. This could be straight out Rage Against The Machine politics or it could be Snoop Dogg (all gangster rap prizes hedonism and hyper-masculinity, with a touch of anti-authoritarian individuality.)

Anthems was the first album in black metal that was coined "Viking metal".

Uh...no.

Hammerheart was released in 1990. Enslaved's first album came out in 1993. Hell, even Amon Amarth predates Anthems to the Welkin.

Emperor is quite good, though. My complaint is their lack of structure leads to a very muddy sound, that really only works if you listen to the album straight through.

But then, now that mp3 is bastardizing album structure, this is not such a very bad thing.

You are correct Xev. I'm going by what I heard in an old article regarding Viking metal. Some don't consider Hammerheart to be viking metal, but just black metal. Beats me. :confused:

What do you mean by lack of structure?

*Shrugs*
Bathory fans are that way. Some love the Viking themes and more melodic sound that Quorthon introduced in '88, some won't consider that as Bathory.
"Viking metal" is still regarded by some as a slur (read: Manowar) and since Bathory is such an institution they won't use the term to refer to it.

Structure...perhaps the wrong word? Later Emperor is even worse with this, but the riffs don't seem to relate to each other. When the song itself is rather simple, it works, but they'll mix fairly rhythmic percussion with keyboards that shift tempo often.
I'm not sure if I'm explaining this well. Emperor just cannot be chopped up into individual songs - and I love this about them.

Matter of rather personal taste, I suppose. In general, I like my music crisp and melodic instead of all over the place.

No, art reflects the human spirit. Sure, politics can affect the human spirit, but political music goes out of style with the times. It also splits your audience in half--some agree with it, some don't.

Notice how no 'great' bands were openly political.

This could be straight out Rage Against The Machine politics or it could be Snoop Dogg (all gangster rap prizes hedonism and hyper-masculinity, with a touch of anti-authoritarian individuality.)

Well I'll be a monkey's uncle.

How about the anti-Christian, pro-drug statements of the Beatles?

How about the war, death, and afterlife themes of Black Sabbath?

How about the existential exploration espoused by Led Zepplin?

They don't make it a chore to include politics within their music, but the sentiments are still there. Music is a social statement, therefore it is tied to the composer's person political aims.

As for Weezer, their style is an obvious liberal nihilism (or even a mockery of it.)

[QUOTE]Originally posted by and2000x

Notice how the Beatles became famous for their pop diddies, and that the music that was remotely political wasnt nearly as succesful as the pop music.



How about the war,

Did you know the song "War Pigs" had original non-political lyrics but was changed to capitalize on the anti-war sentiment of the youth?

I don't mean that they shouldn't try to be successful by capitalizing on the youth, but its hyprocritical to play both sides of the street.

death, and afterlife themes of Black Sabbath?

Those afore stated items have no relevance to politics.

How about the existential exploration espoused by Led Zepplin?

Notice how at the end of Led Zeppelin's career in the later mid seventies when they became more political their success began to trail off?



They don't make it a chore to include politics within their music, but the sentiments are still there.

They may be in their heads at the time, but the key is to not let it dominant their music.

Music is a social statement, therefore it is tied to the composer's person political aims.

It is only tied to political aims if the composer wishes it so.

As for Weezer, their style is an obvious liberal nihilism (or even a mockery of it.)

Liberal nihilism?

Weezer's obvious style is pop music about boys and girls and teenage life.

Political can be used in the broadest sense. When John Lennon calls Jesus a greasy fascist, he's making a political statement.

When Weezer writes songs soley about consumer goods and "relationships", they are making a political statement about the direction of life.

When Bathory writes a song about the joy of freedom, he is making a political statement about what is valuable.

When Avril Lavrenge sings ad nauseaum about boys and sex, she is making a political statement about what a woman's role should be.

Music is a social endeavor, thus cannot be seperated from politics. The Nazis loved Wagner for the style of his music (later Wagner is very fascistic). Sibelius' "Finlandia" was played as an act of rebellion towards the Russian occupiers. Mozart's comedic opera "Marriage of Figaro" was banned in pre-revolutionary France for the way it mocked the nobility.

You want to castrate art, but this is impossible. Art is inherently political - the only question is whether one has the subtlety to see the politics.

Hey, that was a rather clever phrase Xev. I think I'll put it on my list of cool quotes.

U-Reg, did I hear you say that the Bends was awesome?

I thus quote:

Where do we go from here
The planet is a gunboat in a sea of fear
And where are you
They brought in the CIA, the tanks and the whole marines,
To blow me away, to blow me sky high

travis, REM, the living end, the smiths, the cure,oasis, hot hot heat,cake, the postal service, smashing pumpkins, rolling stones ...just a few not mentioned yet ;)

btw, Incubus went to my school and Linkin Park Sux a Fat one

Okay Carnuth that is bullshit and linkin park is kickass. yea ha

actually i had the same algebra teacher as one of them and Linkin Park still sux ass ;)

Dear Xev--though I do admire your swagger, you still don't make much sense.

Sure, an important part of art is interpretation, but half of your afore stated examples are just that--an interpretation.

I honestly doubt Avril Lavigknee thought about a womans role in society when she produced her multi-platinum hit album
'Let Go'.

wow, isn't it amazing how a thread about who your favorite band is can move to who you think the greatest band ever is/was to the politics of a band and its music?

Unreg:

Attempt at condescention duly scorned.

Sure, an important part of art is interpretation, but half of your afore stated examples are just that-- an interpretation.

So? As my early English lit teacher put it, you can interpret Beowulf as a diatribe against bad sword makers, you simply have to be able to support your interpretation.

I honestly doubt Avril Lavigknee thought about a womans role in society when she produced her multi-platinum hit album
'Let Go'.

I doubt she thinks about anything, so what is your point? Do you think the transcriber of Beowulf had to be thinking "oh, I am going to transcribe this poem that has Absurdist ramifications" in order for those ramifications to BE there?

No.

If a mother tells her daughter not to play so roughly, do you think she is consciously thinking about a woman's role in society?

Unlikely.

Still, that message is there.


Andy:
Thank you!

Well overall, I think u-reg has made his point, sound and rational, even if he doesn't see that all music is political. The music is the most important aspect, because it is a band after all. The Beatles main concern was their music, anything was secondary. I can listen to an Opera in Latin and not even know what it is about, but still enjoy the music. End of discussion.

linkin park is sorely 5 years behind on that rap-rock thing.

there is no such thing as "rap-metal." people need to understand that linkin park is NOT metal at all.

i cant stand asking someone what kind of music theyre into having them respond "metal" and then elaborating on their interests in bands only to have them state linkin park as one of their main. linkin park is a load of bullshit which is just an imitation of imitation which is LONG overdue for death. someone needs to put a couple bullets into the head of that rap-rock crossover shit because it's still moving, unfortuneately. Now that I think about it, numetal is still kicking, too. someone should just put the two ideas into a barrel and unload. I'm personally sick of it. I feel like puking.

Everyone has their own taste in music, but this crap is so unbelievably shitty and yet they sell more albums than really great bands could ever aspire to. What the FUCK? I could sit here and continue to ponder the reasons why things are so fucked up, but then I just realize that people are shallow. Fuck rap-rock.

Fuck Linkin Park.

Listen i don't care if don't like linkin park or not but just don't say they are gay and all. what do do listen to... Backstreet Boys type of crap or thoses death metal crap like slipknot. they are gay.

Shows what you know. Slipknot isn't death metal.

:eek: What is this world coming to? People who hear heavy music automatically assume it's death metal without knowing anything about the genre?

I enjoy The Moody Blues also.

http://www.moodyblues.co.uk/

I wouldn't even call it rap-rock. The rapping was so bad I almost fell over laughing. I don't even like rap, yet I could tell how bad Linkin Park was.

Did I offend you personally in such a way that your ability to properly form sentences using words that correlate to the intended message has diminished to a stupid and unhealthy slur? I think trying to decipher that message has made me lose a few braincells in the process. Fuck your shitty taste in music, pal. I never once said "it was gay."

I used to like Slipknot. I used to like Spineshank. I used to like Deftones(and I don't have anything against them, still). All of those bands have "rapping" in them and I tell you that Linkin Park is a massive load of bullshit. It's so bland!! How can anyone think this crap is good?! I mean...maybe some of the lyrics can be poetic or something, but ya know I'd rather read my own lyrics to myself than read through that crap! Who gives a fuck, man? No one cares. Shut your mouth and pull those corporate cocks out of your ears. You're sense of hearing is muffled!

everyone has their own thing, its ok not to like a band, but its not groovy to tell someone their band is shit - have some respect for other peoples opinions please

Opinionsschminions.

That's all they are; opinions. Stating your opinion in a place where I am or may be present is subjecting yourself to my judgement and ridicule.

Respect. Ha. You want my respect for your opinion? Base it on something worthy of respecting instead of submitting your thoughts to the demeaning medium of spoonfeeding. Fuck off dipshit. No one cares what you think, either.

"Respecting opinions"- sounds like another one of those baseless phrases like "sharing is good" or "diversity is important." These are little 1st grade mind control devices that are not based in objective reality, but rather the liberal idea that others should NOT be questioned and all should be equal. What a cowardly attack on the human spirit.

Still, if you have problems with offending people, please consult my thread on proper art criticism: http://www.sciforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=30118

very well put

all right can any body tell who ever listens to the crap called Slipknot

are you asking a question in the form of an observation? can we distinguish who listens to slipknot by looking at their noted musical interests or by the way they dress?

is that what youre asking?

christ youre a moron.

actually i really didnt care that much, lol

shut up

ha! lol

Well I'm surely impressed at the 'diversity' of posters on this thread. All kinds of people, who would've thought!








unreg :rolleyes:

okay people let's not turn this into a hate thread. That's not cool dude. Awright

My favorite band has to be the 12 Stones, awesome music, awesome talent, everyone should own their cd.

isn't somebody from 12 stones came from evanesence's group.

thats a shitty christian band.

hopesfall owns them. norma jean owns them.

What who owns who

Any band I am just in the proper mood to listen to...

right now - Death (Human album).

never heard of them. Post some lyrics

Currently im listening to a lot of Elliott Smith and The Beatles. But my favorite band has to be Led Zeppelin.

Jimi Hendrix.....just listen to him and you'll understand.

Girls aloud for me, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha aaaahhhhh..... no seriously girls aloud is my favourite band.

there is a music band named Girls aloud for me. Freaky

Jimi Hendrix.....just listen to him and you'll understand.

Ever listened to the live 12 minute version of "Machine Gun"?...Godlike.

http://sephyr.hypermart.net/linkinpark.jpg
Hahaha :D

Lmao!!!!!! That is hillarious.

righttttttt. People you should listen to 3 doors down.

BY FAR, the best band in world right now is the Darkness. I was discovered them on a recent trip to Europe, and just discovering them made the whole trip worth it.

Thats the worst name for a band I think I've ever heard. And I'm familiar with forbidden nectar.

Interpol, Interpol is so much better the Linkin Park. Linkin Park needs to pass 3rd grade spelling. God,... Linkin Park sucks.

dr. louis,

You really shouldnt criticize before you listen to the band

THE DARKNESS=WORLD DOMINATION

Well now that practically nobody is following this thread I'll post mine. Sorry, I can only limit it to one per decade.

2000s: Audioslave
1990s: Garbage
1980s: The Cult
1970s: Black Sabbath
1960s: Jimi Hendrix
1950s: Hank Williams
Pre-1950s: Benny Goodman

ewww. Audio slave sucks. and Garbage are garbage :p

ewww. Audio slave sucks. and Garbage are garbage :pWell OK. I've loved music my whole life and have a lot of favorite bands. (I was there when Hank Williams's material was current, but not Benny Goodman.) Those bands pretty much won a coin toss. Here are a couple of others that may have better luck winning your approval:

2000s: Korn, Evanescence
1990s: Paula Cole, Filter

I'm trying hard to avoid listing some of my really beloved performers that I discovered in the used CD bins, who are so obscure most of you wouldn't recognize them, like Leah Andreone, Morley, or Alana Davis.

my favorite artists:

radiohead
the smashing pumpkins
manson
elliott
hum

(too hard to pick just one.)

After being given this encouragement to think about it: If I had to pick only one, it would be Brian Ferry.

oh god, Korn :mad: even more shitter

Why bother listening to bands? Most of your modern interests will probably phase out over years. Try something that will stay with you, such as a composer.

ewww. Audio slave sucks. and Garbage are garbage :p


HAHAHAHAHA...I'm going to start a thread asking everyone to post their favorite bands....so I can then proceed to slam them for it. HAHAHAHAHA

hahahaha :p . you do that brandon

oh god, Korn, even more shitterWell I'm so sorry that you don't seem to like any band except Linkin Park. I think they're just fine but I happen to like some other bands better. I thought you might relate to Korn more than Audioslave because they belong to that same "depressed and angry but articulate" school of music, like Linkin Park, Staind, Godsmack, Evanescence, Nine Inch Nails, and Type O Negative. Excuse me for breathing your air. I think I'll log off now and go listen to "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath." I have to remind myself of who set the standard for this genre of music.

ewww. Audio slave sucks. and Garbage are garbage :p
Morello could play the guitar in circles around Linkin Park guitarists. I suggest you first listen to them before you shut them out and Garbage is a lot more respected than Linkin Park is. Face it, beyond catchy songs Linkin Park is your by the books tragedy band with over grown cry babies....but goddamn them they make some catchy ass songs I like listening to.

But to compare the skills of Audioslave's members against Linkin Park is ludacris. Chester may be able to scream but Cornell can peel the paint of the walls when he lets loose. He has the most recognizable voice in the industry today along with one of the most pertienet guitarists of the 90s, Tom Morello.

oh god, Korn even more shitter

While not shitty (their eccentric distorted bass playing is unique) it is disheartening that after 5 albums their sound remains the same. You'd think after 5 albums the lead would get rid of some of his issues by now but no...same old songs about pain and hurt and so on and so forth. As it stand "Follow the leader" is their best album so far IMO.

okay fine then maybe i should listen to their music before i should playahate. :( but still korn still sucks

//Sabbath Bloody Sabbath." //

Completely agree. None of the bands now come close to touching Black Sabbath.
Sabbra Cadabbra, War Pigs, Hand of Doom, Into the Void.... surreal stuff.

Not really, Metallica kicks ass :D

Not really, Metallica kicks ass :D

You mean USED TO kick ass. Like maybe 15 years ago...

Not that any band I've mentioned on this site has ever been well received...

phish!
medeski martin and wood
led zeppelin (okay, so this one will be well received)

the above are my three mainstays, they have been my top three for a while and I don't see it changing soon. Below are ones that may possibly leave, and for the time being aren't in the range of the above three (in no particular order)...

grateful dead
the meters
umphrey's mcgee
galactic
garaj mahal
jimi hendrix
zakir hussain (not a band, but a brilliant musician)
duke ellington

jimi hendrix fans/phishheads/deadheads, if you want a chance at something cool, and don't yet know what the word "Furthur" means - pm me.

Okay, now simply because I haven't posted much here in the last while and I feel like talking about how dumb the rest of you are (yes, it's sarcasm, don't get all pissy) --- here are the bands you've all listed that I think suck shit.

linkin park. (i) every song sounds the same. (ii) whiny, bitchy lyrics that only dumbass teenagers fall for. (iii) every song sucks!

pat metheny. Okay, so it's much better than a lot of the other shite that's been posted, but dude, I can't stand pat. For one, it's boring jazz. For it's time I'm sure it was genius, but I mean, come on! In the 70s Shakti was around if you really need that kind of jazz. And Zakir is the master, so Shakti takes Pat by a mile! Plus, I have a special hatred for metheny because when I've been in Europe, EVERY GODDAMN music store's jazz section is filled with this. I can't find anything original/new/good!!!

sigur ros. boring.

incubus. boring.

darkness. okay so they're not the worst - or even shit - but they're ridiculously over rated. Whenever I hear/see them (which is fairly frequently, my sister loves them as does a good friend) I can't help but think they're doing this all as a joke, making fun of Van Halen and such. If they aren't, they're just kind of weak. For starters, having the lead guitarist be the singer in that kind of band sucks shit. It means no cool solos underneath the singing. And the only solos he does do are short and very, very cliche.

interpol. boring, standard music.

audioslave. Dude. Please.

manson. On principle alone I can't stand him. There once was a band called Marilyn Manson. Then people started to refer to the singer as Manson. So he went along with the image. It's like David Bowie for depressed kids.

Thank you kindly, I love you all...

here are the bands you've all listed that I think suck shit.

audioslave. Dude. Please.I felt good for a minute there. Someone sprang to Audioslave's defense with a very articulate explanation. I agree that Chris Cornell and Tom Morello are both gifted, highly versatile artists. Not one hit wonders either, both shined in their previous bands. But now you come along again and dismiss them -- just like the Psycho, without a word of explanation.

Come on now, "dude," the level of this discourse has risen. You've got to say something more than just "I don't like them so I hereby decree that they suck."

As for the other interesting comments... I still won't pick on the Psycho for his love of Linkin Park. His inability to articulate why he doesn't like our music, yes, but his love of Linkin Park, no. :) "In the End" was a masterpiece that touched a lot of people. Even if it was a one-hit wonder, it qualifies them for greatness. DJ's say that in most years, with no coordination, just synergy, one song becomes the anthem of the entire nation's high school graduating class. "In the End" was it for that year. Easy to see why, "I've tried so hard and got so far, but in the end it doesn't really matter," says a lot about today's high school experience. So anyone's irrational love of Linkin Park may be the result of having that one song etched in their soul forever. I say: let them be.

Besides, the video for "In the End" is one top two or three videos, indeed one of the very few even decent videos, of the past ten years.

Metallica, yeah, of course. If you'd bugged me long enough I would certainly have eventually thrown their name in the ring. And Black Sabbath, thanks for the support on that one. Interestingly enough, we discovered Metallica about twenty years ago... on their "Master of Puppets" tour when they opened for Ozzy Osbourne in Long Beach! What a double bill!

You mean USED TO kick ass. Like maybe 15 years ago...
not really they still have some pretty good songs out there right now.

don't confuse instrumental talent with musical talent...
so what if some guitarist can play better than another, metallica has insane solos...I hate solos
I'd have to say that my favorite right now is The Living End
there's nothing wrong with Linkin Park, they have talent, not my favorite, but I respect them a lot, especially for somehow keeping clean lyrics
and right now, as my as I love Hit That by the Offspring, I can't call them a favorite since that's really the only really great song I've found off their new cd, but overall they are an awesome band...
Llama has also been a favorite of mine for quite some time, and it's a bonus that no one's ever heard of them

true very true. I do respect Linkin Park, but on of my favorite song is Sic Transit gloria By Brand New. They too are cool

Incubus, Deftones, Radiohead. How can you only have one?

Go to to www.enjoyincubus.com to hear three new songs off the new album...three!!!

that new Incubus song Megalomanic is freakin awsome :D

Sic Transit Gloria is pretty fun, this guy I was doing an animation with showed me it. Meglomaniac is pretty cool, but I'm really loving Fortune Faded by Red Hot Chilli Peppers. Anyone else heard Heartbreak Stroll by The Raveonettes? A bit different, but an amazing song.

How copme no body ever mentioned The White Stripes :D

Because there shite!

no they aren't. :mad: Fine what group do you listen to

already posted....

But

Symphony X

The AWESOMEST band in the world ,as i said before they are quite possibly the greatest musicans since the great composers!

gonna have to check them out then, here's a good recomendation I just remembered: Sponge - Plowed

Star one post some fuckin lyrics....

One of there best songs is a 24 minute long masterpeice called odyssey , based on the greek myth

Awakenings-

Needless to say, another day has passed away
Yet everything, and nothing, has changed
Awake I lie, my thoughts get lost up in the sky
Needless to say, nothing will change...

Maybe a mystic - with fortunes to tell...
Surrender my coin at the old wishing well...
Maybe the stars will align in the night...
To show me the path that is right

'Would've been's and 'could've been's
they waste my days away
the colors of my life dissolve and fade to gray

So many paths of promise
Indecision poisons my mind
If only I had seen the signs - so blind

Yet I must journey on - on and on

A haunting vision torments me
It smothers and steals my dreams
I see an old man in the mirror
cold and bitter starring back at me

Here I am - at the crossing of life I stand
On my own - looking down the road
Hear my cry - answer me
Still I'm searching yet the truth is unknown - though the night is cold
I walk the road alone

all that is 24 minutes long huh

The Kinks and the Animals for their early influence. The Beatles were The Beatles, enough said, but it was these two groups that influenced hard rock.
Pink Floyd
Cream
Good call on Hawkwind and Wishbone Ash, Star One. Same on Brian Ferry, Fraggle. At least for his influence on so many others.

anybody heard A Flock Of Seagulls

Heard of 'em but I think it was like twenty years ago....one hit wonders weren't they?
I'm not knocking one hit wonders. There are many bands that had potential but never moved beyond their breakthrough track. FYC....Fine Young Cannibals come to mind. Sugarloaf in the 1960's with Green Eyed Lady....,many, many more.

2pac biggie,213,bonethugs
and Neurocomp2003 are they even some type of band in any way means :confused:

Best Bands: Smashing Pumpkins, Interpol, The Clash, Queens of the Stoneage.

Organized Konfusion, better known as O.K. (duo of Pharoe Monche and Prince Poet)
the whole D.I.T.C. (diggin' in the crates crew)
to name a few

think popular music in general done fell of since the mid nineties. That includes, alternative, rock, metal, hiphop/rap, R and B, Soul, all that, the industry's changed more so recently than it has in a long time

actually, I didn't name a few, I named a couple, but that's getting too technical

On a side note apart from the topic, do you know any good mp3 providing site? I'm looking for instrumental music (particularly orchestral classic or percussion play).

Snoop
Ludacris
Weezer
MMW

how about you try www.mp3.com and devboy Queens of the stoneage is pretty kwel

One of the best bands of all time:
Smashing Pumpkins
After that it would have to be Tool, APC, and Radiohead in that order
-Zero Mass

HEY WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO SMASHING PUMPKIN, WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM :confused:

Click the link at the end of the quote to hear the song:(Thunder, birds chirping, bomb blasts)

Hold me close until my fear subsides.
Yah I might be the only one left alive.
Oh pull me out of this sullen field. Yes.

I might be too close.

I might be too close.

We’re all alone.
We are alone.
But I don’t know your location.
So many ghosts have come and gone.
They left a ringing in my ear.
We are alive.
The world is ice.
This is a strange vocation.

But I might be too close.

I might be too close.

I can feel you, Mother.
Oh I’m so near you, Mother.

We were all so brave on the outside.
Oh we painted our very own meaning of love
in our letters of blood.

Oh Yes

It goes so fast, like a bomb blast.
The conviction of the righteous is gone.

Yah it goes so fast, like a bomb blast.
The conviction of the righteous is gone.

Yah we are alone
We’re all alone

But I don’t know your location.
So many ghosts they have come and gone.
They left a ringing in my ear.
To put the blade to those you love
This is a strange vocation

I might be to close
I might be to close

I can feel you Mother
Oh I’m so near you Mother

We were all so brave on the outside.
Oh we painted our very own meaning of love
In our letters of blood.

(Bomb blasts)

Oh-ho Yes

We painted our very own meaning in letters of blood

(Bomb blasts)

I saw the frightened faces of the boys coming in for the kill.
So many more of them left to cut down before we take that hill.

And they said,
"Any man here with a merciful thought in his head will be shot where he stands."
So we carried out faithfully, down to the letter, all of the Colonel’s demands.

All the Colonel’s commands.
Yeah all of the Colonel’s demands

And in the end we all knew we’d be getting what we got

to the devil by a hangman’s rope with the whole wretched lot.

(Helicopter, birds chirping)

I have enjoyed the Kinks, Robin Trower, Moody Blues, Beatles (saw them on the Ed Sullivan show), Jimi Hendrix, Steve Miller Band, Tom Petty, Flock of Sea Gulls, U-2, Rush, King Crimson, Brian Ferry, Crosby, Stills Nash and Young, sheesh, so many favorites. Right now am diggin' on Coldplay, enjoy some Incubus, Radiohead, Alice in Chains, Evanescence. May it never stop. Keep on rockin'

Art is subjective, reflects beliefs and knowledge. What is good for me is not necessarily good for you. Want your preferences to be considered as god like? Your problem, not mine.

well Mr.Chips I never knew nobodythat liked so many bands new and old. Keep it up. :D and tiassa the Floater dont sound that bad :rolleyes:

serial killer - how in blue fuck can you be an mmw fan and a ludacris fan???
Anyway - what mmw are you into? Been to a concert yet?

for all those who like queens of the stone age...
do any of you know of Kyuss - queens from when they were good?

serial killer - how in blue fuck can you be an mmw fan and a ludacris fan???
True I can't stand that guy. He deserved to be shot in the head. He is giving the music industry a bad name

In no order:

Weezer (My #1)
The Pixies
Modest Mouse
The Beatles
Ben Kweller

A lot of classical 'bands'.

I also like Afroman. How he suits my taste is a complete mystery...

TOOL

I didn't know there were any others.

any other what???

Dream Theater + Procol Harum

nuff said.

yea yea nuff said :rolleyes:

yea yea nuff said :rolleyes:
Why do you act so childish towards others choices?

lol, I don't realy know what you mean by that psycho. If its a sarcastic statement then I agree with sargentlard.

I happen to like progressive rock, and Tool is one of my favourites but still they lack something that I get from these bands that I mentioned.

mine was the cure

as I dont believe in 'music band' anymore, I should always only refer to individual songs

Why do you act so childish towards others choices?
i dunno. really. i am just bored that is why.

I happen to like progressive rock, and Tool is one of my favourites but still they lack something that I get from these bands that I mentioned. what do they lack then



P.S. This is my 900th post.

Congradulations on your 900th + post.

Ok fine :), Tool are good, realy good.

The bands I mentioned were just off the top of my head. I don't realy have that much of a favourite.

It's the esoteric lyrics and the provocative yet subtle music that appeals to me most, I haven't listened that much to Tool but enough to know that it's one of my favourites-
What I've noticed about this kind of music is that it truely does grow on you. It doesn't neccesarily grip you instantly with a catchy melody and a catchy chorous, rather as you get more and more immersed in the music and the lyrics you appretiate it more and more with each listen.

yes thank you exsto_human. :) but what other bands do you like besides Tool. Come to think of it i have never listened to TOOL :(

Wait, erm,

So you were criticising my taste and you haven't even heard the music I mention???
lmao!

I'm not confronting you though, I just thought it was quite funny. And I know I've most likely missinterpreted the whole thing... So let's just forget about it.
Still funny though. :D

I also listen to among others Yes, Pink Floyd, and Genesis in the prog rock genre. But I very often listen to artists like Simon + Garfunkle, John Denver, Bob Dylan, etc.. even Marley, Bunny and Pete aswell as some less known Reggae groups. And while I'm mentioning artists I can say I even enjoy certain Hiphop music aswell, but only the ones with intelligent and provocative texts such as those of Immortal Technique and dead prez.

While I'm on a roll I can mention that I think Beethovens 9th symphony is one of the greatest musical masterpieces ever composed. I frequently listen to both L.V.B and Mozart, but also other classical composers.

That gives an idea of the spectrum into which my taste falls...

While I'm on a roll I can mention that I think Beethovens 9th symphony is one of the greatest musical masterpieces ever composed. I frequently listen to both L.V.B and Mozart, but also other classical composers.
For some reason a lots people seem to like Beethovens 9th symphony for some what reason. and on another note- i wasn't criticising your taste

Is kelly clarkson a band?

Is kelly clarkson a band?
what evil do speak of Dr Lou. NO

i think im the first person to name anything even similar to this kind of music:

my favourite musical artist is Paul Oakenfold. then its Fatboy Slim

some of you will say they are not a bands, so my fav band is Underworld.
(darren emerson from underworld is awesome too!)

am i alone im my taste?

well no you are not. I do to like Paul Oakenfold. he is awsome :D

I stand corrected on "the darkness", it turns out I liked their songs all along just didn't know who they were.
I assumed it would be some goth cradle of filth type shit.
They're pretty cool, original anyway and thats pretty important in my view.

yes in a way they look goth but they are not and their music a sweet

It depends on how you look at it zonabi. Oakey being a DJ can be said to compose masterpieces in the form of whole night sessions, where he uses tracks instead of notes to elevate the audience, to do this realy well requires incredible skill.

Even though it was a while since I listened to any Trance/Techno I still say, Go Oakey!

That sissy Tiesto doesn't have nothing on him,,,,

radiohead cannot be beaten for the sheer despair that their music invokes

The Rolling Stoned :D

radiohead is DEEP. really gets inside of your head and mind~

Oakie!! i love em and see him evertime he tours here.
(tiesto - bah, he aint nuttin but a remixer)

Also, Oakie produced his own Album, not Tracks on a Live Set- it came out maybe a year ago its called "Bunkka" and its truly something else, he is also a great composer as well. Live mixing is indeed a challenge let me tell ya ! i myself stick to "behind closed doors" sets ;)

Chemical Brothers used to be my favourite between 1995-1997 or so.

people you should listen to juno reactor. there are fuckin talented

favorites:

VNV Nation
Paradise Lost
Assemblage 23
X-Dream
Converter
Tiamat
Sirenia
Fear Factory
Dark Soho
Amon Amarth

there are more of course, but then can't expect you to try them all.

I never heard any one of them. :confused: Who the hell are they.

thats funny, cuz i know most bands you mentioned. including juno reactor and flock of seagulls ( but screw flock of seagulls, i dont listen to stuff like that )

its pretty obvious you prefer lighter stuff than me. i mean Incubus, Linkin Park and Smashing Pumpkins sound almost exactly the same.

VNV Nation - melodic industrial, biggest and best industrial band today, if you dont know them - you suck.
Paradise Lost - Gothic/Alternative used to be darker
Assemblage 23 - Synthpop/Industrial
X-Dream - Psychedelic Trance
Converter - PowerNoise, biggest of its kind, nobody else comes close
Tiamat - Gothic/Alternative used to be darker
Sirenia - Gothic
Fear Factory - Metal with elements of Electronica
Dark Soho - Psychedelic Trance with elements of Metal
Amon Amarth - Black Metal

every one of the above except Assmeblage 23 is darker than the stuff you listen to. Assemblage has about the same feel as Linkin Park except its not Alternative but Electronic.

Smashing Pumpkins sucks!! ... :mad:


bye!

I like PJ,Sound Garden,Nirv...PJ is the best...i used to like Savage Garden for some time...but not nowadays...


bye!

Zion,
Smashing Pumpkins sucks!! ...

They didn't ALWAYS suck ... I send this smile over to you :)


Otherwise, my all time fav bend is Radiohead. For one reason: They are so f****** spuuueeeshhhallll. Yeah. :D

My favorites are:
In Flames
Children of Bodom
Blind Guardian
Motörhead


In case nobody ever heard of them, the first two are Black Metal bands from Sweden and Finland, Blind Guardian is a german Heavy Metal band and Motörhead is somewhere in between Metal and Hard Rock, they come from England.
If you ask me, there is no better music for a party than Metal, it is also quite useful to blow your eardrums. :D

My favorites are:
Bebelina
(though she has yet to release a cd yet :D )
Sisters of Mercy
Siouxsie and the Banshees
Rage against the Machine
Tool
Evanescence (except that stupid, overrated Bring Me To Life song, wish I could burn it *off* the CD, as in erase)
... and for some reason, Michelle Branch.

Incubus sounds some what clam and Linkin Park screams alot and I don't know what Smashing Pumpkins sounds like.

Incubus sounds some what clam and Linkin Park screams alot and I don't know what Smashing Pumpkins sounds like.

in the larger scheme of things they are quite close. meaning if you like one you probably can at least listen to any of the other two.

I never heard any Incubus song where he screams....... or does he ever scream in his songs......

this is so difficult. my favorite (currently active) band must be pearl jam

Has anybody listened to Fallout Boy??????

in the larger scheme of things they are quite close. meaning if you like one you probably can at least listen to any of the other two.

Depends....I would say not really if you follow your music quite closely because even at first look there are significant differences between the two bands and most kids who listen to Linkin Park are more into Limp Bizket and Korn, not the mellow and subtle sounds of Incubus.

I never heard any Incubus song where he screams....... or does he ever scream in his songs......

Listen to their very early stuff. Songs like "Shaft" or "vitamin"...their sound took a great turn in their 3rd album Make Yourself and it went completely experimental, and IMO their peak of creativity and talent, in their 4th release Morning View

Their 5th release A Crow Left of the Murder is more mainstream and very relaxed with few hard edged songs....

...but if you desire "smash your head into the wall cause its so good" Guitar work with damn good lyrics there is always Rage against the Machine, Tom Morello is god.

a bit safe but -"The White Stripes".
Abstract art is good.

Yea the White stripes are awsome. Who has listened to A.F.I's songs.....

i dig pinback. seeing em live again in a cpl weeks...

Bela Fleck and the Flecktones easily defeat all previously mentioned bands due to the vulgar amount of talent the members each have.

For the more dj inclined (or just those of you who like good music), Jel (of anticon fame) is amazingly good listening. Check greenball and greenball2.

And you can never go wrong with Johnny Cash, Roger Miller, or Jim Croce.

i dig pinback. seeing em live again in a cpl weeks...
who is this "pinback" you speak of

Pinback are former members of 'three mile pilot' and 'heavy vegetable'. They are incredibly talented musicians that play a hybrid of music. The songs interweave an abundance of melodies with seemingly effortless abandon. They have several EPs and 2 full lengths. 'Blue screen life' is a good introduction to the many facets of the band.

The live show must be experienced. The two main members interchange instruments and vocal parts while the crowd joins in on songs like 'rousseau' - chanting "the drones are near! the drones are near!"

Ah I love em. Check em out.

Maybe I will. What is their site.

I listen to AFI. I love their rhythm section and Davey's scowling. Definitely one of my favorite bands. They kill me

www.pinback.com

If you want a faster more punkish sound, check out thingy or heavy vegetable. some good songs are 'jackie chan is a punk rocker' and 'destroy all music'.

Q and not U, Radiohead, Blah, Blah, Blah, snd Blah....you get the picture...

Lost Prophets and The Story of the Year. Has anybody ever heard of them or listened to them.

Yep, I have, they are not bad I would say. Not quite my style of music but I still listen to them occasionally.

Yep, I have, they are not bad I would say. Not quite my style of music but I still listen to them occasionally.
They are good. But what is your style of music. (if you already posted here then Iam sorryIwon't look through 10 pages of posts.)

I supposed I have posted it somewhere, but I am too lazy to look myself. I listen to Black and Heavy Metal most of the time.

So you listen to all those gothic type stuff.

Yes I do, (alas I am not a goth).
BTW Death and Trash Metal are also quite good. :D

It's funny haw a thread meant to express what one likes turns into arguments and discussion. Here are my favorite bands. If you don't like them, that's ok cuz it's your opinion. I enjoy them. That's all that counts for me.

Tool (as posted earlier)
http://tgbem.coolfreepage.com/realm/tool/img/ihead.jpg

Incubus
http://www.nederland.k12.tx.us/nhs/web03/hcvernon/Webmastering/incubus.jpg

A Perfect Circle

http://www.maximum-ink.com/archive/2000/apr/assets/images/band-in-circle.jpg

Apocalyptica
http://www.stadel.at/Bilder_oitc/apocalyptica7.jpg

Incubus is awsome
never heard of the last 2
and Apocalyptica looks like a gothic classical music band.

A perfect Circle is Maynard from tool and a bunch of other musicians who play more mellow music than tool, but stick to the same concepts.

Apocalyptica is four guys from somewhere in Europe who started off by boing Metallica covers on cellos, but now they have their own stuff. They encouraged me to play some chello. I enjoyed it.

How good are they. Besides the fact that they inspired you.

They are really good, got some awesome instrumental work. Some of their cover versions I like more than the original. BTW they are from Finland.

How many Metallica stuff did they do.

Iron maiden, Jethro tull, Black sabbath, Wishbone ash (argus), Led zeppelin, and my own music.

Hey Certified, I think they covered about eight tracks from Metallica. Why don´t you check out their homepage? http://www.apocalyptica.com

Yup and they also played some the best ones too.

hopesfall owns them. norma jean owns them.FUCK YES. W3RD.

apocalyptica has four very talented people. I have never heard anything liek it before. I had listened to string tributes before, but apocalyptica put an edge on it. I like it how they experiment with distortions.

I like Cold Play the most now but it will probably change. I just can't choose a fav!

jadedflower you have a good taste in music.Some nice bands there. And Coldplays "A Rush Blood To The Head" is a good album.

Somebody mentioned Argus by Wishbone Ash. Maybe the most complete album from start to finish I've ever heard.

Wishbone Ash - through Front Page News
Pink Floyd
City Boy
David Bowie - through Scary Monsters
Queen - first 4 lps
Cream/Blind Faith/Derek & the Dominos
Golden Earring - through Cut
Beatles
Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
Steely Dan

More recent would be Collective Soul

Tiesto
DJ Sasha
DJ Icey
Okie
Space Girl
Timo Maas

I have never heard any one of them.What are they, some type of European people.

Rage
Sodom
Slayer
Edguy

I know Motorhead... my dad bought that on amazon and it got here a few nights ago.

The AAAAAACE of SPPPAAAAAAAADES

*sigh*
needless to say, I don't like it much. I heard Dave Grohls new project that involves Lenny I think, but I dislike that even more.
Musically, Mhead isn't too bad... but the vocals :P not much to show for.

I don't know the rest I think.

motorhead are quite good- done several wkd as well.
jade:
jimi hendrix (weyehy he rules)
kraftwerk : ja sehr gut
clash radio head blodie and maybe white stripes are all good
whho are devo!, eels and blid melon??
ella fitzgerald and elvis costello?: ..................dunno..............
(sorry if i hurt your feelings.)

Dreamwalker: they are all wicked bands only one i havent heard is rage, unless this is a shortened version of rage against the machine? probably not. but all good.

and yes walker, nile fuckin kick ass. methinks they are the best death metal type band ever. 'period'. with out doubt. not even close. except maybe opeth. they are also ser gut.

Well, if you listen to Death/black metal you get used to those vocals. And they really rock live.
The rest are european metal bands, they are not too well know, except Slayer.

BTW, No, Rage is just Rage, they are around for quite a long time.

Donovan
Three Dog Night
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Phil Collins
Beatles
Simon & Garfuncal(sp?)
etc.....;)

somne older stuff there guy but still good. slightly broader horizons than me lol

SHOOT ME (again)

God oh God!

I forgot Nirvana and Soundgarden and Pearl Jam.
I don't deserve to live.

Tracy Chapman.
The Smiths
The Cure

I'm gonna stop now. I like too much

Just to add Marley and Harper.

who knows Haven?

And who likes Eminem? mwahahahahahah *lame*

I like quite a bit of old stuff. Louis Armstron, BB King that whole era...
Cuban music, African... I will shut up. I swear. At somepoint.

i aso like to much but i will never stop:
nirvana: how the hell did either of us manage to miss them jeez whats wring with me?
the cure: goooood
dunno about others

also
monty python (they made songs didnt theY)
goldfinger
disturbed (shame)
CKY (shame)
mozart (no shame he ruled)

monty python = LOL EXcellent!
goldfinger = Hmmmmm
disturbed = Erm... who were they again? Yeah, good... ooh! DEftones :D
CKY (shame) = Who?
mozart (no shame he ruled) = *cofcof* Er... NO! No classical :'(

if you listen to the requiem you probably would go:
"thats quite good". its about the only piece of calssicali listen to.

Yeah goldfinger aren't that great, its just they were the first non mainstream band i ever heard and they opened up a whole world of 'good' music insead of mainstream shittiness like:
arfa: 'fountains of wayne' and
'britney spears', who, while being fit and all, produces some terrible music. Lol may her career end soon.

Disturbed: high class generic head banging type music that you go and see to mosh too. Nnot a lot else to them though.

another:
james brown
miles davis
john coltrane
ACDC<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
bad religion
capdown
fugazi



FFAF suck

who are ffaf?

Good: Miles Davis, Bad Religion are a joke, ditto Less that Jake and what's that other band which is almost the same thing? I like American Jesus, and LtJ's Jonny Quest Thinks We're Sellouts hehe

johhny quest thinks we are sellouts was prety rubbish, it was the same two lines over and over.
but bad religion and ltj methinks are both good.
ffaf are funeral for a friend, i couldn't be bothered to write ht ewhole name out.
yes, american jesus is sheer excelence.

henry mancini
kings of leon
libertines
mr. bungle
the darkness (no shame)
tool

yeah HIM arent great but they have done some good songs, like beyond redemption, etc.

im surprised you havent heard of the darkness they are quite new and have become quite big. they are like real rock and roll instead of metal that has been called rock and roll becasue there was no actual rock and roll around.
Tool are also good they are like really adult music that is wicked and i cant remember their genre. but its somewhere in the region of rock lol.

the darkness and tool ring a bell... but these bands all have dumb names lately.

Like "death". What could be more pathetic?

wait till we find a band called

the band


but to be honest, the 'band name' pool must be running low on actual good names like the beatles so people are having to have strange ones like fountains of wayne or less than jake, which confuses the older generation much

my dad: whats this crap playing now
me: its less than jake
dad: less than what?
me: JAKE
dad: oh right, and whats the band called?
me: (sigh) LESS THAN JAKE
dad; whos jake
me: oh dammit you are a fool

........

lol...

well try communicating "Sleater Kinney"

i can imagine that is hard


but who are they??

a baaaand :D

uh. there was a band called 'the band'.

sleater kinney are a girly rock band. one of them is also in 'quasi' which i like.

tricky band names that confuse parents are nothing new...think 'yes' and 'the who'

suppose so......

jade thats not helpful
who were the band then, with such an imaginative name i would like to hear their music.....

Jaded, how could you like Slipknot. Why they so fucking bad.

not as bad as LINKIN PARK ARGARHGAGRHARGHGRAHGAGRHGHARGHGAHGAGRHAGRGARH
dam i hate them as you may have gathered.
at least slipknot were slightly different and produced a couple of decent songe.... but PARK????? THEY MADE THE SAME SONG ABOUT 50 TIMES?!?! WHA?

THEY GODDAM SUCK.
