As I said in one of my posts, I'm a heavy metal thrasher brother. Some bands I listen to include Cipher, D-Fe, Game Rebellion, Bionic Jive, QOTSA, AMEN, Snot, Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, The Sore, and some others I don't feel like putting down because a lot of the bands I listen to are not on the radio so 90% of the bands I probably would mention you probably would've never heard of.

Snot's the honeysuckle. I play "My Balls" every time I go to the pool hall. The rest I dunno though, you're right.

 

[evanescencefan91]

hey I've heard of mr. Bungle

don't they do the song my ass is on fire?

 

[Jeremi]

Dream Theater, Porcupine Tree, Ayreon, Pink Floyd, Mostly Autumn, Blackfield, Jethro Tull ect ect

Prog. Prog! PROG!!!!

But I love other kinds of music as well. Any Rock and Metal from Beatles to Iron Maiden ^^

I knew there'd be SOMEONE no one has ever heard of. But yes, snot is indeed the shiznit. If Lynn was still alive today and the band was still around, I'd go see them in a heartbeat. The Alive album is simply amazing (I'm not a big fan of live albums though) and the Strait Up comp was just a work of beauty in itself. Speaking of Snot, do you by chance have any of their original demos? I lost my files when one of my mp3 players conked out and stopped working so that and a lot of music I had is lost forever.

hey I've heard of mr. Bungle

don't they do the song my ass is on fire?

yes they do (and the song just kicks ass too) and I love Mr. Bungle. Out of everything Mike Patton has ever done as far as bands/projects (so far at least), bungle is my all time fav. s/t and Disco Volante are my two favorite bungle albums.

Dream Theater, Porcupine Tree, Ayreon, Pink Floyd, Mostly Autumn, Blackfield, Jethro Tull ect ect

Prog. Prog! PROG!!!!

Jethro Tull............hahahaha. I'm sorry but every time I hear the name I keep thinking of the time they won best hard rock/metal performance from Metallica (whom I don't like anyway). Random but that's that.

 

[tal]

Ensiferum, Bathory, Equilibrium, Moonsorrow, Thyrfing, Forefather, Summoning, Taake, Catamenia, Morrigan, Sear Bliss, Naglfar, Elvenking, Leprechaun, Finntroll, In Extremo, Cruachan, Empyrium, Pagan Reign, Volkolak, Children of Bodom, Sonic Syndicate, Searing Meadow, Nargaroth, Nightwish, Satanic Warmaster, Dragon Force, Sonata Arctica, Astral Doors, Dream Evil, Korpiklaani, Slavland, Axel Rudi Pell, Bob Catley, Nocturnal Rites, Edguy, Grave Digger, Crystal Eyes, Blind Guardian, Iced Earth and Iron Maiden are a few of the metal/rock bands I quite like.

 

[helen]

i've been listening to the band a lot lately. i kinda, umm, have a huuuuge crush on their bass player...

Nah, the only album I got is "Get Some". Real shame about the lead singer, as "Snot" had a pretty unreal sound. At least Lynn didn't go alone (I think his dog died in the car crash too).

As in "The" Band? With Levon Helms and Robbie Robertson? If so, high five. Really terrific, under-rated classic rock band. They've got waaay better stuff than The Weight. You should check out the movie "Last Waltz", or I think it's called something like that. It's like their last concert or something and there's all these legends paying tribute to them. Martin Scorsese was behind the whole thing, pretty good stuff.

Anyways, where's all the reggae at? C'mon now! Easy Star All-Stars, Ziggy, Damien, (I don't think I have to mention Bob), The Scientist, Inner Circle? How 'bout some good ol' ska? I really like that Caribbean sound...Slightly Stoopid, Sublime, Pepper, Seven Foot Wave, 311...I'm into real chill honeysuckle. And Alt Rock could use a little lovin' too. I don't see any Flaming Lips, Porno For Pyros, Jane's Addiction, Harvey Danger, Presidents of the United States of America, Modest Mouse, L7, Cake...what's wrong with you people?

I saw 311 live. Pretty awesome, and the drummer played an insane drum solo. Creatures and Down were pure awesome. \m/

Sublime's great. So many classic songs, and IMO Bradley's underrated as a guitarist. Same in the End is probably my favorite tune. I never got the chance to see Sublime live (was still young when Bradley died) but I saw Fishbone live and they played an awesome cover of Date Rape. \m/

The Flaming Lips are pretty great. So far I've only heard Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots. Some great songs on there, especially Don't You Realize, which is absolutely heart-wrenching. I once saw Beck live and they he actually played an acoustic cover of Don't You Realize. Was so beautiful...

Jane's Addiction is great. Ritual De Lo Habitual is just a kickass record.

I like Modest Mouse. Some really great songs, and I probably need to get more of their music.

Cake's great. I'm an oddling in that my favorite album of theirs is actually Pressure Chief. But what can I say? Wheels, Carbon Dioxide, all all the other tracks are just such perfect pop-rock. And End of the Movie is so poignantly simple yet beautiful. I also saw Cake live. \m/

Anyways, I have hundreds of favorite bands, as well as tons of artists that aren't in the rock genre, so it'd be impossible for me to list 'em. I'll just respond to whatever interesting bands are mentioned here.

You are the freakin' man. I missed my chance to see 311 live. I'm a Florida boy and they were down a month ago for Langerado (sp?), but I heard they're pretty sweet in the flesh.

Lincoln Highway Dub is my personal favorite from Sublime...totally badass. Nowell may have passed but he lives on in spirit. Lou dog just may be the coolest dalmation of all time.

I'm not so much into later Flaming Lips. I like their early sound, it's...I dunno how to put it into words. "Be My Head", "Bad Days", and of course "She Don't Use Jelly" are real wonky, weird, cool songs.

I like Jane's Addiction, but only really 'cause of Perry Farrell. That guy has the funkiest singing voice.

Cake's the honeysuckle. 'Nuff said. Anways, I'm sure you've got SOME bands that you put ahead of others, so let 'em rip, brotha.

at one of the only two concerts I've been to in my life, Edgefest, I saw cake get pelted off stage with water bottles . Never really heard much from cake but they barely got through their first song. They were scheduled to play for an hour too so ya it was kinda lame that we have to just sit there waiting for the next band lol

 

[Matt]

How lame. =[


Why'd they get pelted? Was the audience just rowdy, or did the audience not like the music?

yeah, that's them! i love the last waltz, it's probably my favourite film.

 

[AngryLoner]

I think it was just because Edgefest tends to be more hard rock related, so I guess the crowd just wasn't cake fans

They seemed a bit out of place there to me to be honest, and they gave em a full hour before the headline group, which I thought was a little excessive

 

[snow]

I also like 311...though I couldn't really make Langerado, or hardly any shows now, with a full time job at night.

A couple bands I'm into now:
Darkest Hour (I was in the moshpit!)
Spoon
Sixx AM --never really a Crue fan but this new band rocks
Several drum 'n bass groups
(that nobody's probably heard of lol)

 

[Terminus]

Just a few of the bands who's music I've been enjoying lately:

Dark Fortress
Fragments of Unbecoming
Edge of Sanity
Gojira
Heaven Shall Burn
Meshuggah
Naglfar
Solitude Aeternus
Cavalera Conspiracy
Dark Tranquillity

Got similar music taste? I love talking about music, so drop me a note!

 

[Antihero]

Bands I am fond of:

Air
Weezer
Muse
Radiohead
Pink Floyd
Green Day
Beatles
Ratatat

... and stuff like that.

 

[Qui]

I regularly listen to Depeche Mode, Evanescence, Linkin Park, Atreyu, Three Days Grace, Kill Hannah, Seether, Avril Lavigne, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, NIN, Dixie Chicks, Enya, and Flyleaf.

Of course there's a hundred other bands I listen to, but over the course of a week I'll listen to 90% of the bands listen there. So, those are my favorites, definitely not in any specific order.
