Hey. I'm always looking for more bands to like. I figured that starting this up would generate bands for all of us to check out.
I like: System of a Down, My Chemical Romance, Lacrimosa, Malice Mizer, Tool, Ozzy, Queen, ACDC, Godsmack, Mudvayne, Slipknot, Stone Sour, Avenged Sevenfold, After Forever, HIM, Disturbed, Helloween, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin, Megadeth, Marilyn Manson, Murderdolls, Nickelback, Pantera, Rob Zombie, Dio, Steppenwolf, Krypteria, Beseech, KMFDM, Evanescence, Flyleaf, Opeth, Tenacious D, The Bravery, and one or two songs from a few various bands (Saliva, Nonpoint, Manmade God, Trivium, Finger Eleven, Korn, Jimi Hendrix, Faithless, more...).
Please share yours!
I do not have bands I like, only songs I like.
I find that a band will do one or possibly two really good songs (but mostly for me only one) that I like and when I check out the rest of their stuff it doesn't appeal. So I can't really recommend bands.
Top of the list of exceptions (and after all what are most rules without them???)would have to be Queen (who did 4 songs I liked) and The Police (who also did 4).
Mostly I listen to soundtracks from movies, (I love Blue Man Group's The Current from The Terminator 3 movie), that plays over and over on my MP3 player, and lots of the stuff from the sountrack to The Queen of The Damned.
I am the same. I never buy albums because I never like more than one or two songs. I find that most people and bands get very 'samey' after a while.
Me too, but there are some bands that I like most of the stuff done by them, or at least enough (10 songs or so). Probably half the bands I listed there, and the rest I like 5 or less songs, and didn't list a bunch that I only like one or two for.
I have only ever found one album where I liked every song on it.
That is RUSH Hold Your Fire.
It is the best collection of music by one band that I have ever heard ..and it's not one of those the best of, or greatest hits jobs they always have a at least one dodgy one on them.
The wierd thing is I like possibly one other song of the hundreds of others they have ever done.
Tee Hee.
Dragon/Phoenix................Hold Your Fire.................................
Gee, do ya fink someone was tryin to tell ya sumfin?????
Did they do the song TaiPan? If so I LOVE that song, but so far it's the only one. LOL
Could you give me the names of some of the others you like and I'll give them a listen. If you like I'll even tell you what I think.
I LOVE Rivendell. I sang it as a lullaby to my daughter and now i am singing it to my son and it just gets better and better. Sometimes now I even get some of the tune right...but a different bit every time I sing it
do you know I hadn't spotted that one at all.
And yes they did do Tai pan excellent song that.
Chakira I shall have to see if I can find some words and music for that one.(unless you know of any)
Maybe if I hear you sing it a few times I can piece it together ...lullabies sound great on a wooden recorder.
It's (loosely) the one by Rush.
if you can't find the words i can PM them
Snow Patrol is a pretty good band... Em besides them I just listen to random songs of different bands.
