my favourite has got to be mudvayne- they are just awesome! also slayer- one of the best bands of all time ( bring on dwonload!!!) and also adema( before they changed their singer) but dont get me wrong- i do still like them- i just think they should of kept Mark Chavez ( their former singer)
another one? oh well i cant get enough of saying that INCUBUS is my favorite band because thier lyrics are awesome espeacilly the song called "Make Yourself"
Rammstein are my favourite band and I like them because to me, they produce good music and they are talented.
The sins of thy beloved.I love the music, vocals and lyrics.I feel like am purified and forget my probs when I listen to them.They give me energy, and a very good mood:)
Well I can't really list them all but i'll say three of them. First I have to say Iron maiden is my favorite one of the only bands i know that you can listen to the whole album without skipping a song. Lets see second mercyful fate great band exspecially with king diamond as lead singer possibly one of the pioneers for death metal. Third its either dimmu or morbid angel. Guess you can say all I listen to really is black or death metal.
Incubus? Never really could get into them but rammstein is cool saw them in concert once.
the song by incubus that got me hooked was the song called "warning" then stellar then it just domino'd (sp) but thier style is not anything paticular they just dress like average dudes, all of them are diff in their own way, not all of them are goth, not all of them are prep just averege guys making kik ass music.
Incubus and Ram are both good bands really.. they dont neccessarily inspire me, but they do help me to have fun..
nine inch nails, the old discs are still amazing. new stuff is decent, but it does not compare with the old. it was just, right place--right time; memories in my life.
Type O Negative-just Awesome!! They just keep going, no matter what. they are not mainstream, but can rock hard in several genres.
i dont think i listen to 'rock/metal' cause i dont kno what in hell i listen to. but i have got to say its either Sex Pistols or ACDC. i dont kno why.
ACDC...is really cool...but i mean my favorite band is simple plan..or cold play...but i do love evenecsnce...i don't know if they are rock but i think they rock!!!!!...lol
with metal i would have to say puya.
they are so different than anything else out there.
Someone needs to read the FAQ. ahem
Anyway...Blue Oyster Cult. If you don't know why...then you just don't know.
hummmmmm,lets see ummmm so many good ones ... pink Floyd, boston
well I can't think of a rock band that inspires me that much. maybe Bush, I just like there style. but a group that does mean alot in my life would be the Insane Clown Posse and other juggalo music.
Korn, Static-x, System of the down, and Rob Zombie. I love Living dead girl
mindless self indulgence by far, because they are the strangest thing ive ever heard. they follow almost no limits, and the singer jimmy is a coce/X addict like you wouldnt believe.
i have no problim reposting my faverit bands here, H.I.M. is my first fav, then Cky
Nine Inch Nails.... and Insane Clown Posse!!!!!!!!!!!!! Much Juggalo Love
Iron Maiden and Led Zeppelin, I just like the melodic style of Iron Maiden and Led Zeppelin has been so influential on other bands
Cradle of Filth it's just simply the very best of them all
The best artist for music, its Glenn Danzig. I'm sorry, he does some damn good work, if anyone has never listened to him, you have to try and find a few of his songs
Mother, Devil's Play Thing, Stalker Song, White Angel/Black Angel, Blood and Tears. These are just a few, but good lord.
These songs also have references to his religion. Like White Angel/Black Angel deal with Cain and Abel, if I think I broke it down right.
there are a lot to choose from but i think i would have to say Static-x ,or marilyn manson, or slipknot,etc. they are all very out there and yet still mediocre.
well i love wat blacktear loves i like coldp play and simple plan 2 they rock!!!!!
Queensryche!!!!
with a side of Dream Theater.
*faints*
Definately Green Day...
They're sooo talented, and have been toether forever. They just totally kick ass!
LOVE YOU BILLIE!
o man i just had to repost, scionofrequiem
you are so on the money with Danzig, i went an sow him live in coridon Ky. simply awsome show period, i have yet to see my other faverit bands live , except disturbed i saw in Lexington, thay rocked
TooL
and I can't find a regular word to use to describe them!
Just everything; music, Maynard's voice, their lyrics, and even their videos; the best videos I've ever seen.. You must love 'em!
Besides, I love The Cure, (old) Manson, Type O Negative, NiN........
Your lucky, I wish I was able to see Danzig live. I've seen Metallica and God Smack live so far, and to tell the truth, they are pretty damn good live. You never truely understand a bands ability to play until you see them live.
I have 2: Aerosmith and KISS I have been a big KISS fan since I was 5. I like the two bands because they know if it wasn't for the fans they wouldn't be where they are, and they both put on one hell of a show and give you your moneys worth. I just really enjoy their music, KISS for the heavy riffs and Aerosmith for their ever changing music.
NINE INCH NAILS! its just everything about them that has to be inspireing;)
fave bands have to be nine inch nails and the almighty Mudvayne!!!
Damn after seeing all these bands I realized I forgot a couple. One will have be black sabath surprised no one has mentioned ozzy or them yet. Another one is motley crue I guess you can call them a guilty pleasure. Last one will either have to be napalm death or mayehm even venom, sorry for the long list but all these bands inspire some way or another.
ozzy
deftones
spineshank
type o negative
def leppard
HIM
NIN
COF
my favs atm
all the bands mentioned are awesome tho veyr cool
I also like many of the bands mentioned-that is why it was hard for me to pick just one. Kiss-awesome. saw them live twice. Cradle of Filth-also rad, live they rock even more. Nine Inch Nails-never saw them, but love them!! Slipknot-the first album rocked, saw them live, dont like them as much now.But Type O will always be one of my favs. Waaayy to many others-wanna know, ask!
i dont have a favorite band. but the band that is closest to my favorite would have to be msi, i dont know why i like them so much, the music just makes me happy. and its always good to be happy!
I have too many bands i like to namey really enjoy Primus and Les Claypool's other bands because they have awesome music and i like the stories and humor in the lyrics
Skinny Puppy, I always loved their music, but then I saw them on the Too Dark Park Tour, and nothing I've seen from any band since has come close. It was like seeing a dark beautiful opera, everything else is just a rock and roll show but that was art.
Hmmm.... i have many favorites but two of three main ones would probibly be Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, and The Cure
Jack Off Jill... Lyrics and dark female vocals... I found JoJ the same time I found a person who meant alot to me...
depends on what mood I am in live trowing copper is not bad
there are so many bands that i am liking right now. not just mudvayne and nine inch nails
afi
deftones
slipknot
spineshank
static x
to name just a few!
I thought this would be easy until I thought about it more but without a doubt Pantera, Alice in chains and joy division especially new dawn fades and she's lost control
I love dream theatre i just think they are perfect and when i listen to them i feel great :D
i think we have stumbled on one of lifes dilemma's........what is your fave band?
its so hard to choose 1 band!
i dont really have a favorite band i listen to a wide range of music from godsmack to green day...from slipknot to rammstein...from ICP to my chemical romance and some punk bands soo i do love alot of band just cant say which one is my fave
WELL Now i dont know i love to many for differnt reasons I cant just chose one
I love Cradle of Filth, great music, great lyrics,.. Everything about them is lovely. But the band most important to me is Slipknot. Their self-titled album helped me relieve severe anger and it saved me from going on rampages because the songs took the words right out of my mouth.
nin- take anything trent has done since the beginning and it sounds like "modern day" music... way ahead of the times.
incubus- i just love the lyrics... and these guys put on a great show
tool- lyrical genius
a perfect circle- manyard and jordie... perfect blend of voices
oh ya... iforgot all about the most awesome kickass LOCAL bands here in ORLANDO fl.... too many to name... but the one at the top so far is Orphans Of ALiens... great guys, great music... melodic and heavy all at the same time... what inspires me... i know the guitar player.. great heart in this guy... you should check out their site... just message me and i'll let you know what it is when they get it finished... unless you have a myspace account, they're on that now.
Right now... Avenged Sevenfold. And as for inspiring... These guys started this fucking band when they were all barely even 18. And they're doing awesome. Kept working at it. And here they are today.. 3rd cd just came out. City Of Evil (go buy it it rocks.) Just goes to show you what can happen when you keep trying at something you really want.
OMG i LOVE the old Metallica not the new i mean b4 james went to rehab they were kickass and didnt care bout shit like me! and SoGothisItHurts i love you!! in a non sexualy way hero of the day is my FAVORITE song that and one!
*~*Cassandra Meloncoly*~*
Even thou they aint metal i lubzz Linkin park & Papa Roach
mindless self indulgence because they are strange like me!
Nine Inch Nails, Because there music just rocks me and I can relate to most of it.
K M F D M..... the godfathers of industrial rock, been around for 21 years and still going strong not to mention them live!!!
two bands first MSI b/c....... ITS FUCKING MSI!!!!!! and second is vnv nation b/c thats what started me into industrial back when i was 12!
I've got two: Lacuna Coil - because their lyrics and live concerts are just awesome, epecially their older songs like "Half Life" and "Cold Heritage." Second is Within Temptation because once again, the lyrics are just awesome and they create a musical atmosphere that's like no other. My favorite songs from them are "Our Farewell" and "Dark Wings."
I have more than one. I think my two favorite would have to be Alice Cooper and Rotting Christ. Oh, and Kreator.
Hmm .. Amon Amarth or Dimmu Borgir .
Both kick arse ..
my favorite would have to be godsmack, their song serintiy is the way i get to sleep and calm my-down
Even though I worship Lux Occulta, I must say it's probably Tiamat.
Their music makes me calm, makes me angry, makes me deal with all my emotions. When I hear Edlund's voice everything's ok again. And when I see them play live... oh well there are no words to describe the feeling!
does evanesence count as rock ? or is amy lee more goth ,anyhoo she rocks for me ,also ive jsut discovered the black rebel motorcyle gang ,theyr pretty cool to,
