It is totally impossible for me to pick ONE band out of all the bands I listen to. The band that I listened to religiously, and still do, would be Coheed and Cambria. Seen them live thrice, I think they are amazing. Get past the voice and you have a band that is really quality rock.

[MonkeyHatchetZombie]

Vehemence
&quot;I Didn't Kill Her&quot;

And I may have heard of &quot;As Eden Burns&quot;

[Infest0125]

[BioGematria]

I dont have a specific favorite, but its between Metallica and Iron Maiden

[NERRRinator]

I have far too many choices: Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer.

[DTard]

My old school favorite is between Linkin Park(pre-Minutes to Midnight) and System Of A Down.

[Platypus]

My favorite is probably a tie between The White Stripes and Ween.

[DTard]

The White Stripes

[Grubster11]

Ya, one of my faves, but I like High 5 better....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtDaDrUlqWk&feature=related

[Claudia]

My play list is full of random songs, top three bands would be Nickel Back, Katy Perry and Theory of a Dead Man.

[Apex_]

I'm a random playlist type of guy. I listen to a lot of OCRemix stuff, but as far as bands go I span everything except most rap.

Big fan of BOC, Jethro Tull and Rush to name a couple I have discographies of.

[ZiggY]

At the moment, Justice. Can't wait to hear the new stuff they've got in the works

[Eagle112]

Flaming lips! Bob Dylan!

[PMAC 07R1]

Flogging Molly is my favorite.


+1

Also a big fan of Everclear. I know not even close to the same type of music.

[PMAC 07R1]

Flaming lips! Bob Dylan!


My Uncle Butch used to party with Bob Dylan and Joan Baez, I hate Bob and Joan. Their music sucks in duality and singularity.

[nerVe]

Mushroomhead and Tool.

[persnicityninja]

Slipknot ftw

Edit: and Breaking benjamin

[persnicityninja]

Pendulum

Pendulum FTW

Fave songs are Blood Sugar, and Coma

[Skypn1333]

The Presidents of the United States of America

I listened to their first CD when I was younger and around a year ago to the present I've listened to a lot of their new stuff and it is just as good.

I only really own one CD of theirs that came out like 10 years ago, but there are sooo many great songs.

foo fighters..

aww hell I like every type of music so I can't really say

[Infest0125]

Papa Roach has always been one of my favorites, especially since they were the first band I listened to.

Slipknot I absolutely love, and also Hollywood Undead. Those are probably my favorites.

[darkmessiah]

Nine Inch Nails and of Montreal for me... I've been starting to like Interpol and The National...

[DethPenguin]

Don't make me pick favorites your cruel bastard.

Slipknot

I enjoy their "older" songs. I found that the more their lyrics made sense, the less I liked them.

[Etheallmighty]

I think from the moment I saw things like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzImkYcNXXI
that on MTV, I swore to never listen to or like that band...

in case you haven't guessed, I fucking hate clowns, and I think that constant bass pedaling and screaming to where I can't tell what you're saying ruins it for me...you can't really ahve fun/sing a song that way....not trying to start a war or anything, cause I know a lot of people do/only like that.

[EasyBake]

mine would be Children of Bodom

[GamerKing]

RAMMSTEIN!

Woot!

[DTard]

Hollywood Undead
Lol, I remember when they were just a myspace band xD

[Stuffinator]

Manowar, Amon Amarth, Insomnium

[Marcopolo]

Lol, I remember when they were just a myspace band xD

And now they are a full on faggotry train! How wonderful. I digress, King Crimson or Mr. Bungle. It is hard to say though. That are my all time favorites.. I think... but lately I've been liking a lot of: Opeth, Children of Bodom, Gojira, and Justice.

[UKMD Elmo]

Hmmm, tossup between Muse and White Stripes I think...

[Mr Hobo]

Steve Miller, Kansas (The Wall=Win!), and Cream.

What I really think that is bad about music today is that it doesn't take much talent anymore. And also, songs from 20-40 years ago were much more depthfull, meaningfull, and talented. For me, music back in the 60's and 70's were just great. Those are mostly all I listen too on the radio.

[DTard]

My current favorites are Kutless and Skillet.

[BaldingSteve]

Jim's Big Ego

[Platypus]

White Stripes

Great band.

[SlainPwner666]

Chimaira. I'm also branching out away from metal and into hard rock like three days grace. The Venom Inside is so addicting, I listen to it over and over

[Marcopolo]

Three Days Grace is not hard rock.

[DTard]

Three Days Grace is not hard rock.
Technically it is (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Days_Grace). Normal rock is stuff like Three Doors Down, Puddle of Mudd and Creed. Just because you don't think it is doesn't mean it isn't.

[one of them]

I really don't have a favorite band...
Mostly because all the bands I listen too only have a couple good songs. If there was a band that had 70% "Good" songs, I would call them my favorite.

[Marcopolo]

Ok well then I guess I should have just said. Hard Rock = shit.

There are bands that have mostly good/great songs. They just don't get played on the radio! Expand your repertoires people!!!

[BaldingSteve]

Opinions are like assholes; everybody has one.

[DTard]

Opinions are like assholes; everybody has one.
My thoughts exactly.

[Kiwi]

Favorite Band? Alexisonfire, been listening to them now since the first album, great band in my opinion, and Dallas Green is just awesome too ^^.
And Mr. Hobo, by "Music today doesn't take much talent", what kind of music are you referring to?
Favorite Song by Alexisonfire? All of them <3 (Cept for "You Burn First", not my thing)

[Mr Hobo]

I mean in the since all you hear is a mix between hip hop and rap, and it there is so much of those songs. There are some GOOD bands that make great songs nowadays, but you don't really find them on popular radio shows.

[Platypus]

I mean in the since all you hear is a mix between hip hop and rap...
Not true. I don't listen to either of those, but i tend to notice lots of crap 'Alternative Rock' or what ever children are calling it these days. It feels like over produced, soulless music.

There are some GOOD bands that make great songs nowadays, but you don't really find them on popular radio shows.
Now this i agree with.

[OhComeOnNate]

I would have to say Alesana. They're awesome. But I do have a lot of current favorites like I Set My Friends On Fire, Attack Attack!, Escape the Fate. I also like some hiphop and a lot of alternative bands like Taking Back Sunday, Meg and Dia,...basically a lot

[FaceGrater]

My "favorites" change all the time.

Lately it has been Symphony X, Queensryche, and Porcupine Tree

I just love the cheesy sound of Operation Mind Crime, what can I say?

[Mr Hobo]

"Not true. I don't listen to either of those, but i tend to notice lots of crap 'Alternative Rock' or what ever children are calling it these days. It feels like over produced, soulless music."

Thank you. That was the name I was looking for. I feel the same way about it, because SO MUCH is produced today.

Also, do you guys think that people are "true fans" that learned bands from Rock band, Guitar Hero, ect? Because I think that even though it was from a video game, it introduced me to some great new bands.

[Platypus]

Also, do you guys think that people are "true fans" that learned bands from Rock band, Guitar Hero, ect? Because I think that even though it was from a video game, it introduced me to some great new bands.

Absolutely. If there is one thing i hate about music, it's the musical elitism. People should listen to all types of music and other people should be willing to share as well. Not much of a difference between a friend introducing you to a band and a video game.

[DethPenguin]

Left 4 Dead Helped me discover Elbow, which has restored my faith in modern music.

[Higgy531]

The White Stripes!

[Platypus]

The White Stripes!
Mad props.

[DTard]

Mad props.
Oh, he gets props but even though the first song I learned on my bass was 7 nation army I don't get any?I see how it is ;)

But I digress, I really miss old school Linkin Park. Anything Minutes To Midnight or after felt so dull and had no passion behind the music.

[darkmessiah]

My current favorites are Kutless and Skillet.

Oh God, I'm not one to judge... lol, what the hell am I saying, I'm fucking judgmental. Skillet. Hah.

[SickDaza]

Without a doubt Rise Against. Dnno if anyone's heard of them but what the hell I havn't heard of any of the other bands on here so meh.

[Platypus]

but what the hell I havn't heard of any of the other bands on here so meh.

Really? We're naming some bigger bands here. Odd...

Oh, he gets props but even though the first song I learned on my bass was 7 nation army I don't get any?I see how it is ;)

Woops, props. Even though the song is played on guitar.

[SickDaza]

Alright so I have heard of some of the bands like White Stripes and Muse but I have never heard of Kutless or Skillet.

It might be that I live in Australia

[MrMojo]

Muse, Tool, Queens of the Stone Age & Rage Against the Machine

My top 4 atm

[DTard]

Woops, props. Even though the song is played on guitar.
It has to be bass. Either that or it's a VERY deep guitar. The whole intro is way deeper than any guitar I've heard (http://www.playlist.com/searchbeta/tracks#7%20nation%20army).

Either way, that part sounds just as good on the bass.

Oh God, I'm not one to judge... lol, what the hell am I saying, I'm fucking judgmental. Skillet. Hah.
What?

Alright so I have heard of some of the bands like White Stripes and Muse but I have never heard of Kutless or Skillet.
I doubt really any of the people on here have heard of them. Kutless and Skillet are Christian bands. (http://www.playlist.com/searchbeta/tracks#Rebirthing)Skillet is much more rock oriented (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6obINPvZtg) and Kutless has a good mix.
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irmw4qUznf0)


EDIT: Yeah, I'm Christian. Don't start being assholes because of it. Everyone has their own opinions. I'm not going to start shoving my religion down your throats so don't start being dicks.

It's guitar. He's using a digitec whammy to lower the tone an octave down (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psbs_8kkWqg), making it sound similar to a bass. You can also hear the effect around 1:47 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqaPi57_Byk) in another song from a different band he's in.

Yeah, I looked it up. Doesn't make too big a difference between a bass and a normal guitar.. Sounds perfectly fine on Bass.

EDIT: Another band I've been listening to: Family Force 5 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPXvf67g9fY). Totally off the wall, not usually what I listen to, but for some reason I like the music. (1:38 is about my favorite part of the video)

[Platypus]

It's a great pedal, i've used one before. But yeah, for all intensive purposes, it works perfectly fine on a bass.

Maybe because you don't listen to people randomly screaming their asses off.

Kidding, they don't do that too much. Never really listened to them... I'm an Alt. guy.

[Geoff Portnoy]

Personally, my favorites are Guns N' Roses and Tenacious D. I also like quite a few of the local bands in my area. It surprising how much good music you can find that isn't on the radio, or is, but not in you city/state(Or Province)/Country.

[DTard]

Some songs by Kutless do have some screamo parts (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEpAS8Vs8oc)(starts at 2:49 and only lasts for a few seconds), but the majority are rock ballads. Then there are the ones like The Feeling that I used in my first AOTD video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PM-RGUKBB_w).

Then there are the Christian bands that nobody realizes are Christian. P.O.D., Switchfoot, and Relient K are good examples.


Edit: Other bands I like you guys would know: Puddle of Mudd, Creed, Three Doors Down, Evanescence, Nightwish, Weird Al, Basshunter, The Fray, Devo, Incubus, Nickelback, Nirvana, Paramore, The Postal Service (I'm sure you guys know them, they play the UPS song which is called Such Great Heights (http://www.playlist.com/searchbeta/tracks#Such%20Great%20Heights%20Postal)), Queen, RHCP, Say Anything.

[Higgy531]

Did anyone mention The Raconteurs yet?

[Platypus]

Don't think so, but being a Jack White fan, of course i love their music.

[Zhadist]

I'll listen to anything that sounds good to me. Mainly in the rock genre, of course. Anywho, I have way too many favorite bands to start naming them off and such =/

Personally, my favorites are Guns N' Roses and Tenacious D. I also like quite a few of the local bands in my area. It surprising how much good music you can find that isn't on the radio, or is, but not in you city/state(Or Province)/Country.

Sweet! I love Guns N' Roses! I'm still a major fan of their guitarist, Slash =] He is a god! I dunno if he's still in Velvet Revolver or not, but thats another band I love listening to every now and then.

[SickDaza]

Ahh that's the problem I am the same. Though I might buy an album and see how it goes down in my books.

[BaldingSteve]

My friend recently showed me another Boston band called State Radio. I listened to one of their songs and I must say I wasn't displeased.

[HolyEvilz]

system of a down.
THIS. and silverstein and avenged sevenfold.
