Music Bands

Remove all ads!

Apparently I'm "unique" or at least on SP because no one else has suggested any of these:
BNL (Barenaked Ladies to those of you who aren't huge fans)
Moxy Fruvous (it's all about the lyrics)
Dashboard Confessional
John Mayer
Enrique Iglesias
Smash Mouth
Bowling For Soup

And then I also like some oldies:
Billy Joel
Queen
Eagles

And even some jazz like Dave Brubeck

But mostly if you looked through my cd case you find (other than every BNL cd ever) lots and lots of soundtracks Everything from John Williams and broadways to the soundtrack from Shrek. Also between me and my sibs we probably have all of the Disney cds... and a fair amount of VeggieTales too. Yay for soundtracks!

 

dead composers:
-WAGNER (my fav from all times).

old bands:
-Deep Purple (from their first albums - 'The book of Taliesyn', 'Deep Purple', 'Concerto for group and orchestra', 'Fireball', 'Machine Head' and from their new albums only 'Slaves and masters'). Anyway TBOT, DP and CFGAO are the best.
-Yes (I like almost all of their albums).
-Pink Floyd ('Piper at the gates of dawn', 'Ummagumma', 'A saurceful of secrets', 'Dark side of the moon' and some songs from 'More' - 'The nile song', 'Cirrus minor').
-Emerson, Lake and Palmer ('Emerson, Lake and Palmer', 'Trilogy', 'Tarkus', 'Brain salad surgery', 'Pictures at an exhibition', 'Works').
-Jethro Tull ('Thick as a brick' - especially).
-Uriah Heep (probably all of their albums after lyrics and titles, but I've only listened to 'Demons and wizards').
-The Beatles (only 'Eleanor Rigby').

new bands:
-Metallica (I hate 'St. Anger'. Anyway I like just a few songs from them, though they are copying 'Deep Purple' - see the 'Until it sleeps' video and the 'Deep Purple' album cover).
-Radiohead ('Hail to the thief' and 'Kid A' are my favs).
-Symphony X (I've listened only to 'The odyssey' and liked it).
-Dream Theater.

 

my now mine:

• dream theather
  athena (a band in turkey)
  metallica
  backstreet boys

 

Hmm, let's see...

Metallica (Even St. Anger!)
Iron Maiden
Black Sabbath
Ozzy Osbourne
Led Zeppelin
Eric Clapton
AC/DC
...and many others that I can't remember right now.

 

Jumpin' Jesus, people! Reading this list makes me think I'm the only SP member who ISN"T a goth! I've never seen so many industrial and metal bands listed in one place. You all need a hug!

Live, Dido, Crystal Method, Oingo Boingo, old Dave Matthews Band, The Doors, Elton, Sinatra, Evanescence, John Mayer, Duran Duran, Oasis, Pearl Jam, STP, Zeppelin, Olive, 311...and that's just what I'm listening to regularly at work.

 

Bands? Well, what would you call bands?
Here are my bands:

Zero 7
Massive Attack
Olive
Conjure One
St.Germain
Hooverphonic
Morcheeba
Micatone
Lamb
Tower of Power
Radiohead
The Cranberries

New Cool Collective

Mainly lounge, triphop, jazz, soul, funk, and some 80's rock.

Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Tricky, B.B.King, James Brown, Lil Milton etc are no bands but they are just a few of who I'd like to mention.

 

Blink 182
The Offspring
Trust Company
Sum 41
Papa Roach
Evanescence
Queen

 

My list would be four pages long, and I am too lazy to put it all down here. I have pretty eclectic tastes in music - everything from Gregorian Chant to Black Metal, from Hip-hop to Country/Western, from Jazz (true jazz, not just swing/big band) to Techno. Well, you get the picture.

I can list my all-time favorite band, however:

METALLICA (all Metallica - from their Demo to St Anger)

Can't stand bubble-gum pop, though - boy bands and britney spears make me queasy, and slightly uneasy.

 

YAY! I am not the only Rammstein fan here, who loves Rammstein and can spell the name.

And I like St. Anger. Okay, some songs ain't that good, but St. Anger itself and songs 5, 9, 10 and 11 are just fine.

Here goes:

Rammstein
Linkin Park
Sum 41
Metallica
Nirvana
HIM

Master of Nuhn, nice list! I love all the bands down to Morcheeba. You forgot (I think you'd like anyhow) A Forest Mighty Black, Thievery Corporation, Röyksopp, Red Snapper, Underground, Air, Télépopmusik, Herbalizer, and of course the almighty Kruder & Dorfmeister!

I also like lots of underground punk, like Knucklehead (in Calgary) and The Unseen, and the UK Subs (although they're not too underground). Rancid is my fav band (and therefore Operation Ivy). I really like the Dead Kennedeys, Lars Frederiksen and the Bastards, Propagandhi (Canadian political band. Great name, eh?), Rage Against the Machine (though they're not punk) and the Casualties.

All the punk is political (even Rancid and Lars to some extent). I really hate all the bands like Blink 182, Simple Plan, Not By Choice, etc. singing about how they ****ed a chick (in a parking lot) and why it rocked. If not that then they're complaining about how their parents don't understand why they drink and smoke all day and swear too much.

I've got no problem if you like those bands. This isn't a personal attack or anything. I used to listen Blink all the time.

 

I'll not list every band I like, because that would take to much space and I can't remember every band I like right now...
I'll list some I've listened to last week or so...

- Neil Young (with or without Crazy Horse)
- Blur
- Gorillaz
- Portishead
- Red Hot Chili Peppers
- Led Zeppelin
- The Police
- Gorillaz
- Rammstein
- The Expoited
- Dick Dale & his Del-tones
- Beastie Boys
- AC/DC
- Breeders
- Radiohead

and that was just last week...
and some hiphop, but that's just not something fot a thread about bands... and Beethoven

 

Heres my list:

On top with a big star

U2

Coldplay
Racoon
Creed
R.E.M.
K's Choice (one of the few GREAT things from belgium (just kiddin))
The verve
3 doors down
Vertical Horizon
Kane (almost forgot one of the best dutch bands)
Blof (also dutch but they sing in dutch, really good)

 

My beloved groups and singers (in random order except from the number one and two)
Pink Floyd
Stone Roses
Ian Brown
Tool
Perfect Cycle
Jethro Tull
Joy Division and their sequence New Order
Mettalica
Bob Marley
Hendrix
Doors
Radiohead
Charlatans
Prodigy
Chemical Brothers
Big Bud
And in general many groups and singer from 60's, 70's, 80's and some from the 90's

 

Well, I guess I could just copy Master of Nuhn's list. Add a pinch of weird synthesizer 80's stuff (don't ask me why) and a teaspoon of almost everything Mystra's Chosen added and you've got my list.

 

Well, spectacular. I get the feeling that Reorx (read a bit of Dragon Lance do we?) just wanted to write up their favourite bands. However, I did read through a couple of people and was surprised at the amount of people that claim to love Metallica old school. As long as we stand here and define old school as pre- Jason Newstead, I'm glad. However, if you refer to just their self titled album, please go back to your hole. /End Rant.

Obvioulsy Metallica. Then:
Mike Oldfield
David Bowie
The Beatles
The Doors
Jethro Tull
Led Zepellin
Pink Floyd
Slayer <- Metallica with death lyrics
Lou Reed
The Who
Jimi Hendrix
Yeah Yeah Yeah's
The Sleepy Jackson
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
The Datsuns

 

I forgot to add these to my list:
TOFOG (No, not just because Russell is their vocalist, I liked them way before I knew that bit)
Cherry Poppin' Daddies
Reel Big Fish
Mighty Mighty Bosstones
TISM

Again, that's it for now
