jimmy. Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 My favorite band, at least lately, is Yo La Tengo. The two singers voices are great, they have well-written songs, and they can play any kind of music skillfully. The guitars in their songs are great.

No Escape? Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Kraftwerk are good...great in fact. I like their song Computer Love the most, and find it amusing that Coldplay took the main guitar riff from "Talk" off that. Anyway, I just thought I'd add that Franz Ferdinand is my favorite band at the moment. Their songs are always spectacular, and I like the particular style they use. Of the various indie bands around, I find it very obvious why they are one of the more popular ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voodoo777 Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 my favorites right now are: Norma Jean:non-melodic music, what most people would call noise, and their lyrics are really deep. Mewithoutyou:the singer either screams or talks, they look like hobos, and the singer can speak french. Maylene and the Sons of Disater: they're a mixture of .38 special and atreyu, they have amazing riffs, and they make good slow songs as well as great fast songs. if you skate these bands are perfect. here's some songs i recomend: maylene: bang, the witch is dead norma jean: mephis will be laid to waste mewithoutyou: january 1979 enjoy.

Cove. Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 My top 5: 1. blink-182 2. The Police 3. Saves The Day 4. Saosin 5. Brand New Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IROC Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 (edited) Haha Blink-182. 1. Led Zeppelin - I look at them as the real band that ignited the future of rock and roll. So inspirational. 2. Eric Clapton - When I was asked what I thought God looked like, I thought Eric Clapton. Such a sad story, such an amazing voice. 3. Nirvana - I'm a huge Nirvana fan, everyone will say that Kurt's songwriting made that band, but I don't look at it that way, I look at it that Kurt's art made that band. Not just the songwriting. People usually don't realize that. 4. Megadeth - I'm very political, which is one of the main reasons why I love Megadeth. The guitar riffs can keep me going forever. 5. Jimi Hendrix - Voice of a generation, expressed with awesome guitar anthems. Edited June 18, 2006 by IROC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snares Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Pfft, I've encoutered way too many favourite bands in my time to list, so here's a few. The Sex Pistols The Jam X Nuclear Assault The Rezillos Dead Kennedys The Damned UK Subs Megadeth (Used to really like them, fetishly, but when they re-made Anarchy in the UK, that lowered my respect for them hugely.) The Clash Madness New York Dolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack_Knife Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Chili Peppers, Mars Volta, The Floyd and Hendrix are probably my favourites. I listen to a sh*tload of bands, but those four definately take the cake. "You can play faster than Al Di Meola and do it with only one pinky, but if you're not listening to what is going on around you, you might as well just shut up" isn't your croth suppose to be erecting when you have an orgasm?

Tre- Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I'm not that into rock really. But I listen to some bands like: 1. Red Hot Chili Peppers 2. Oasis 3. Foo Fighters 4. Staind 5. Audioslave 6. System of a Down 7. Flaming Lips 8. Arctic Monkeys That's quite it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pizza guy Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Favourite Bands? Hmm, I have a few, but my two main favourite bands are: Bon Jovi - These guys have been going for 22 years, and are still going strong, they are an awesome band live, and have one of the best solo guitarists in the world playing for them. Nightwish - A band that can take a practically opera singer and use her in heavy music is inspiring, that's for sure. Their albums are brilliant, sad that they are in a lapse at the moment as the lead singer got too greedy. But hey, hope to see them reborn sometime soon.
