Post your fave bands

Meh dunno, fun topic I guess. Bored and I'm tryin new bands atm, and just was wonderin what everyone likes.
For me, it varies between metalcore and rapcore, as in LostProphets/Nevada Tan to Chimaira. I also like infected Mushroom, Machinae Supremacy and Three Days Grace. Can't decide a fav, but if I'd be forced to, I'd choose Three Days Grace atm, since they cheer me up when I get bs from school/architecture. Also I still like Linkin Park, altho they're gettin old...
So, what do ya guys like? =D

PS: TDG AMV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cb7aEg2Iqxo Posting it cause I lovez it. Rawr.

Let me get my list together, and I'll post all that I listen to. Because I only listen to things constantly that are my favorite bands (there's a lot. >.>)

Those are just some of my favorite bands/artists but that will have to do as this post is already long enough >_> There are still many artists, bands and songs I'd liked to include here but I think it's better if I just stop here... >.> And yes even tough I said I'd try to name "few" I listed a load of my favorites >.<

Have fun listening them >_> (I doubt many/none will listem them all...)

Ps. Aaaaand DAMN YOU SNAKE FOR DOING THIS!!! Do you realise how long this took from me Q.Q And I even scrathed some off from there >.< Next grand post on the forums: Screenies from GW (so if the forum has disappeared I just made it crash with all the pictures >_>)

EDITED: Added some that I wanted to include but forgot >.< You propablt got more than you were excpecting, eh Snake? >_> (Propably will later think of more I want to add >.<)

Maybe I'll start my list and finish it when I get home. Lol.

Well I'm not gonna get as into finding links as Zies did but at least you'll get an idea. You'll know what I edit when I get back, because I'll add it under an "edit" section. But now I can go through my iPod at least... gotta get it... >.>


I'll just go down the list that's on my iPod here... There's a few that technically aren't favorites of mine, I guess I'll skip those, since I only like one or two songs of theirs.

iPod playlist:
Adema
Aerosmith
Breaking Benjamin
Celldweller
Chevelle
Counting Crows
Deftones
Electric Six
Eve 6
Goo Goo Dolls
Hoobastank
Hurt
Incubus
Indigo Girls
Linkin Park
Lost Prophets
Matchbox 20
Panic! At the Disco
A Perfect Circle
Puscifer
Queen
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Sugi Tap
Tool
Trapt
3 Doors Down
Avenue Q (soundtrack for broadway musical)
Wicked (soundtrack for broadway musical)

The reason these are on my iPod is because I like them the most out of all of my music on my comptuer, though there are still a few things I don't have on my iPod that I do like to listen to, like Aqua. =D Anyway, I'll put more on here once I get back home.


***EDIT 1***
This is a bit of a reply to Zies' post. For those of you who watched the Weird Al "You Don't Love Me Anymore" video, now go watch this one:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kt7L4X4li_k
It's what he was making fun of. Oh 80's power ballads. Btw. The song is "More Than Words" by Extreme. They're basically a one hit wonder. XD
And... if the youtube link doesn't work, use this myspace link: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=79774

***EDIT 2***
Now I'll try to remember a few before I get back to my house. There are a few that I actually don't have on my computer but I do like the artists. Anyway, here's ones that aren't on my iPod that I'm just remembering....
Billy Joel
Bush
The Presidents of the United States of America
Marcy Playground
Pearl Jam
Smashing Pumpkins
Nine Inch Nails
Aqua (as stated before)


Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand more to come later.

Half a list same as me, apart from the oldies and softies. I tend to go towards rapcore, metal and alternative. Fine, I like rap too >.> psssssh. =D
Also like: enya, any form of celtic music (especially loreena mckensie), the pogues, morissey, brahms, beethoven, piano in general. and the best fusion of punk rock with scottish music is of course flogging molly =D which i also like.

Was that to me, Snake? Just curious. Lol.

Yup. Why? aerosmith is soft for me. so's incubus and matchbox 20 (yea, got some around tho so i know them ... plus dad likes aerosmith ) Also, I find Nine Inch Nails kinda oldie, as well as Queen. O.o Correct me if I'm wrong dear. PS: Don't forget to send the invite tomorrow. Dunno if I'll be on to accept it, but send it nonetheless. ^^

Lol, I was just confused at who you were talking to. That's all. I figured it was me, just wanted to make sure.

I'd say: yay for METALLICA!!!

I also saw one of you who likes Nightwish, I love'em.

I also like Epica, After Forever, Evanescence, Linkin Park, Iron Maiden, Black Tide, Guns 'n Roses and Legion (my own ex-band lol, though we only had 2 songs)

I'm mostly into rock and metal.

Well.......heres my Top list (based on number of spine chills, minutes of great music, musical effort) and ill give a easy listen song from each (so anyone who tries wont go into the technical songs...cos i love prog) ill try to keep this as simple as possible cause music is as wide as the world...

1 Pain of Salvation (widest variety of music in 1 artist, never gets me bored, has both Meaning/Complexity)- Reconciliation
2 Dream Theater (im a musician so i say wow)- Hell's Kitchen
3 Andromeda (just like no2)- My Star
4 Porcupine Tree (not so technical but complement in the lyrical/melodical angle)- Shallow
5 Beyond Twilight (i love musicians taking risk...and gettin away with it)- Sleeping Beauty
6 A.C.T (creativity ftw)- Truth is Pain
7 Kaki King (cos i always need to relax after all the complex music i hear)- Fortuna

the following artists do not have enough records/songs that i like to be included but they have some songs worth to be mentioned

Scissor Sisters- Tits on the radio (in the fun side)
Muse- Map of the Problematique (in the rock side)
Opeth- The lotus eater (in the death prog side)
Birds and Buildings- Birds Flying into Buildings (in the jazz side)
3- My divided falling (in the progrock side)
In Flames- My sweet shadow (in the commercial metal side)

I hope any who reads finds something they can have a good time with
