Title: All this talk about bands...Who is your favorite of all time
Post by: Viper_Fujax on June 22, 2007, 12:02:31 AM
Can do some honorable mentions if you want.
Easily mine is Metallica (from kill \'em all to the black album). Someone asked me today, so i\'ve been listening to them all day. Bands come and go like crazy but those 5 albums have been the staple of metal for me (i emphasize "for me")
Right now im loving lamb of god, but well see how long that lasts. Used to love slipknot and i rarely listen to them now. Think ill be listening to metallica till i die

i really don\'t have a favorite band, most of the time i\'m r&b, some jazz, some rap (cause alot of rap that is out now is garbage) and deep house, but if were to list some bands these are the bands that i\'ve always wanted to pick up, i\'ve just been lazy or i just don\'t think about it when i\'m at the store...
Metallica - unforgiven <---that\'s a song i like by them not sure of the title name...
Linkin Park - Breakin\' the habit *that\'s a hot track*
Staind - there was this one song from years ago that i liked from them, and i can\'t youtube them since my pc at work has it blocked..:mad:
Coldplay - clocks...i just recently added them to the list because of that one track by them...
Nickelback? - i think that was their name,..anyway i liked a few songs off of their first album

I\'m so excited. This sunday i\'m going to my first live concert ever, and i\'m happy that its going to be Tool.
I know Rage is getting back together for a few shows. I got my fingers crossed tha they will refrom and release a new album. I\'d love to hear what Zach De La Roach would have to say with all the crap going on in the world today.

I\'m so glad rock is no longer mainstream (relatively speaking). MTV has been turning pop and hip hop into pure garbage, as I expected.
Long Live Rock n Roll!

This is gonna be a long list because I have a lot of favorites, and depending on my mood, my favorite is different:
Tool, The Ataris, 311, O.A.R., Allman Brothers, Pink Floyd, Cyndi Lauper (j/k ;) ), Fuel, Grateful Dead, Green Day (old stuff. new stuff sucks), Incubus, Hendrix, Jimmy Eat World, John Mayer (sue me), Midtown (a Jersey band), Modest Mouse, New Found Glory (again, sue me), Nirvana, Phish, Primus, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Reel Big Fish, Rolling Stones, Smashing Pumpkins, Taking Back Sunday, The Killers, The Offspring, Van Halen, Velvet Revolver (and Guns and Roses for that matter), Audioslave, RAtM, and the list just goes on.
But if there\'s a band or two I can\'t live without, it has to be Sublime and Foo Fighters. They must have always been one of my absolute favorites.

Hard to say, if I had to list a few, I\'d say:
(in no particular order)
The Beatles Talking Heads Ween Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds (and The Birthday Party) Frank Zappa (and the Mothers of Invention) The Rolling Stones The Kinks Brian Eno Radiohead Captain Beefheart The Who
As far as sheer song craftsmanship and quality number of albums/songs, I\'d probably leen towards either The Beatles or Ween. Though, my single favourite CD purchase of all time would belong to Talking Heads with The Name of this Band is Talking Heads live double CD.

The Beatles.
Although Alice in Chains gets an honorable mention do to the sheer number of hours i\'ve listened to them.

Ehm.. actually thinking about this some more... for me it\'s not about \'bands\'.
I have alot of admiration for DJ Q Bert. I think he\'s great because his scratches & cuts never sound random.
yo,...dude straight up ripped it!....he was puttin\' a hurtin\' on that track!...:fro:...good stuff!...

bobbo, you ever check out Super furry animals? "rings around the world" is an awesome album, and they have traits of most of the bands you mentioned...

I\'ve listened to Super Furry Animals. Though, I have trouble really enjoying them. It\'s not that I dislike them, it\'s just.. perhaps I\'m just a bit elitist when it comes to these things. The whole Pet Sounds meets OK Computer thing has been done better by other bands. Most notably The Flaming Lips with The Soft Bulletin.
Also, I find that the music wreaks of trying to be artsy, and intriguing, as opposed to just being intruiguing. Oh, and the vocal melodies are a bit weak as compared to other pop giants. :)
Having said that, I probably prefer Fuzzy Logic over Rings Around the World

you know what\'s funny? I felt the same way about SFA at first, thinking they were being weird for weird\'s sake. Then I saw the DVD for "Rings" (they released the album and DVD of the album at the same time) and seeing the videos tturned it around for me.
The soft bulletin is amazing, and I like the flaming lips more in general, tho.
