Favorite Band

[Sean of the Thread]

of yours. Post it here.

[Skeeter]

I sadly don't have one. I would say Napster and it's ilk killed my love of any certain band as I have no reason to buy an actual CD and listen to all the songs on it.

[Sean of the Thread]

For me it's gotta be CCR.

[Numbers]

Pink Floyd, followed closely by Led Zeppelin and the Beatles.

[Anebriated]

Pink Floyd, followed closely by Led Zeppelin

:yeahthat:

[Sean of the Thread]

oooohh all very good choices.

[diethx]

Tough one, but my all-time favorite would have to be Nine Inch Nails (With Teeth and Year Zero NOT included.)

[Some Rogue]

Pink Floyd, The Doors..after that, I don't know. Maybe the Stones or the Beatles.

[Mighty Nikkisaurus]

Radiohead, with the Postal Service coming in a close second.

[Drew]

Jimmy Eat World

[Latrinsorm]

Bruce Springsteen.

I think CCR is in my DNA somewhere, because all their songs sounded familiar even when I hadn't heard them before.

[Sean of the Thread]

So you're saying you've got a little Fogerty in you?

[Drew2]

Fucking christ this thread is too heterosexual. I'm going to balance it out.

Justin Timberlake
Kelly Clarkson
Panic! At the Disco
Ashley Parker Angel
Ryan Cabrera
DJ Tiesto

[Latrinsorm]

So you're saying you've got a little Fogerty in you?And apparently a little Drew2 as well. Since when is liking Kelly Clarkson non-heterosexual? :(

[Drew2]

Justin Timberlake, I'd let you get away with easy.

But for Kelly I'm going to call you a big mo.

[Suppa Hobbit Mage]

ABBA


no really

[peam]

TALKING HEADS!!!!
the decemberists
the rolling stones

[Sean of the Thread]

And apparently a little Drew2 as well. Since when is liking Kelly Clarkson non-heterosexual? :(

Since she looks like a man.

[Satira]

Tool
The Decemberists
The Beatles

I couldn't pick one. I lose.

[Sean of the Thread]

It's hard to pick one.

[Latrinsorm]

Justin Timberlake, I'd let you get away with easy.

But for Kelly I'm going to call you a big mo.I haven't seen anything Timberlake since "It's Gonna Be Me", but come on. How can anyone be more of a gay indicator than Justin Timberlake?

[Augie]

ROCK
Dave Matthews Band
Live
Linkin Park
Hoobastank
Red Hot Chili Peppers
--------
TECHNO
Tiesto
Paul Oakenfeld

[Drew]

ROCK
TECHNO
Tiesto
Paul Oakenfeld

Personally I would say Tiesto is way better than Oakenfold. He's definitely my favorite electronica artist by far.

[TheSmooth1]

Boston
Chicago
Black Sabbath
Iron Maiden
Iced Earth
A Tribe Called Quest
Guns'n Roses

Depends on which day of the week you ask. I can't decide.

[Mighty Nikkisaurus]

Personally I would say Tiesto is way better than Oakenfold. He's definitely my favorite electronica artist by far.

I'm a Dieselboy fan myself, some of his remixes of Tiesto are amazing.

[TheEschaton]

Obviously the Beatles, and Pink Floyd.

[kheldarin]

White Stripes, Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Kings of Leon, The Strokes, The Libertines, Regina Spektor.

[Snapp]

Kelly Clarkson


:heart: Kelly Clarkson :heart:

If I had to pick one artist as my favorite, it'd probably be Sheryl Crow.

[Stanley Burrell]

Not country.

[Blazing247]

Favorite band? Beatles
If I could only own one album in the world? Hmm, tie between Abbey Road and White Album.
The rest? Metallica (though not so much now), CCR, I think I overplayed Led Zep and Floyd I rarely listen to them now, the Stones, Coldplay, NiN, Radiohead, Weezer, the Boss, Beach Boys, and of course, Ozzy.

[TheEschaton]

ONe album is definitely Abbey Road. I mean, look at the track list:

1. Come Together (One of their best ever)
2. Something (George at his finest)
3. Maxwell's Silver Hammer (a light-hearted jaunty song about a serial killer)
4. Oh! Darling (Breaks me to pieces every time....)
5. Octopus's Garden
6. I Want You (She's So Heavy)
7. Here Comes the Sun (Perhaps Harrison's best)
8. Because (OMG triptastic)
9. You Never Give Me Your Money
10. Sun King (Here...Comes...the Sunnnnnnnnn King...)
11. Mean Mr. Mustard
12. Polythene Pam
13. She Came in Through the Bathroom Window
14. Golden Slumbers
15. Carry That Weight
16. End
17. Her Majesty

mmm NiN and Coldplay.

I actually used to hate Coldplay, but when I relistened to their music again after a year or so I really loved it. Funny how that works.

[drigore]

I know the stuff Peam posts. Anal Cunt, Fudge Tunnel, Carcass, Pitchshifter, Bolt Thrower, and all that other junk.

[Latrinsorm]

[ElanthianSiren]

Depends on my mood that day/hour to be honest because my favorite music changes with what I want from it in the end.

Lately, it's been punk to de-stress, and it ranges between The Misfits and Pain.

[Satira]

where's peam to mention 4 or 5 bands nobody else in the world has ever heard of?

That's probably my job now.

I always knew most of the bands Peam mentioned, he had pretty good taste if leaning a bit hipster.


Sonata Arctica


Sonata Arctica did an awesome cover of Bette Midler's "Wind Beneath My Wings".

PS: You listen to way too much metal, you and Bob should hang out.





The album I'm listening to most right now is Editors - An End Has a Start. http://www.myspace.com/editorsmusic

[Latrinsorm]

Nightwish's new albumBooo, the break-up of a great band! Hooray, Finnish opera metal!

[Apathy]

I've been listening to a lot of Tom Waits lately. I know he's not exactly a band, but he kicks ass; and is a refreshing change from the crap that gets jammed into my ears daily..

Also Audioslave, RHCP, Pearl Jam, CCR, Social Distortion, Johny Cash, NIN, Paul Van Dyke, Otis Redding (gotta have something for 'those' moments)...

[mgoddess]

Never too much metal, especially when it's progressive/operatic/symphonic!

And now I'll have to go find Sonata's "Wind Beneath My Wings"...

[mgoddess]

Booo, the break-up of a great band! Hooray, Finnish opera metal!

Yeah, Tarja's leaving sucked... but I have to say, the new gal filled her shoes pretty well. I can definitely tell the difference between them, but the new gal is still pretty damn good.

[Hips]

The Smashing Pumpkins, followed closely by Nine Inch Nails and VNV Nation. And Apoptygma Bezerk, and Icon of Coil, and Covenant, and Shiny Toy Guns... I could keep going, but I won't.

[Marl]

Tool
Most precious blood
Nora
Norma Jean
Terror
Dillinger Escape Plan

[Mistomeer]

Skillet-album Comatose

Heh, weird. I ran into John Cooper's brother the other day at the store.


My favorite has to be Radiohead, but I also love Stereophonics, Snow Patrol and too many more to list.

[Elvenlady]

Stone Roses
Snow Patrol
Twang
Delays
Scissor Sisters
Divine Comedy
and Katie Mellua for mellow moments

[peam]

By the way, if you haven't listened to Animal Collective's newest "Strawberry Jam", you're blowing it.

[Skeeter]

I hate PC name changes.

I was a big fan of Bare Naked Ladies in college.

[Marl]

By the way, if you haven't listened to Animal Collective's newest "Strawberry Jam", you're blowing it.

I read about this album in Rolling Stone. They said they did the whole album while smoking salvia out in some Arizona desert

[kheldarin]

Album I like best from the Beatles: Rubber Soul..followed closely by Sgt. Pepper.

Also I can't believe I forgot to add The Misfits.

[iJin]

Eyes set to kill..

Probably smashing pumpkins somewhere in there too.

[KValisk]

Morrissey - closely followed by Plain White T's

[ViridianAsp]

Misfits (when Danzig was a member), Swingin' Utters, Exploited, Last Resort, Minor Threat, Terror, AFI (before they made it big), Mad Sin, Tiger Army and the Nekromantix, Oxymoron, Combat 84, The Business, The Damned, The Germs, Walls of Jericho, Hatebreed...

I have lots of favorite bands...most I haven't even posted...

I don't expect many to even know these bands, but I love them.

[Celephais]

Rock (all Irish Rock... cause that's how I roll)
Dropkick Murphys
Black 47
Flogging Molly

I would love to have the singer for Walls of Jericho kick my ass.

[ElanthianSiren]

Yeah, Tarja's leaving sucked... but I have to say, the new gal filled her shoes pretty well. I can definitely tell the difference between them, but the new gal is still pretty damn good.

She's fugly. Tarja is gorgeous. Therein lies the chasm.

edit: also, on the rerelease of sleeping sun, she's just trying way way too hard and is super stiff. The only time I notice a huge difference though is when I have to look at her. Actually re-edit, I DO notice it quite a bit when she sings the older Nightwish stuff and I'm looking. Her voice seems lower than Tarja's. With the new release stuff, it's okay. They should just retire the old songs.

[mgoddess]

They re-released the old songs with the new gal singing them?!

Feh. I agree, they should retire the old songs.

[ElanthianSiren]

Yup, check youtube. There's at least one of her singing Sleeping Sun.

I do like the Eva single though as well as what I've heard of the new cd.

edit: found it

[mgoddess]

*shudder*

Ok, that was wrong... Annette singing old (Tarja) Nightwish songs = BAD.

Keep them separate and all's good. Annette has a good voice, it's just different from Tarja's (and the combination of Tarja+band and Annette+band is different too).

[Anebriated]

Gan has good music taste

[ElanthianSiren]

Yeah; I don't think she has the range for it, but if she tried Ghost Love Score, I think I might have popped and started throwing things at my monitor. Some things just shouldn't be touched. Agree on the overlay too, and what's with the weird mirror thing?

[ElanthianSiren]

bloody hell, I forgot Acid Bath. OOps.

Oh well; PC fails at direction following 101. :shrug:
