Favorite Bands/Groups/Singers/Artists
Permalink   


I'm kinda surprised there wasn't one of these topics already, and I'm a pretty big music freak so I couldn't help but start one.

Whether you own hundreds upon hundreds of CDs or just occasionally like to jam to a song playing on the radio, nearly everyone has a favorite artist of some kind.
Top on my list right now are probably Anathema (Atmospheric Rock), Dream Theater (Progressive Metal), Green Carnation (Atmospheric Rock/Metal), Lacuna Coil (Gothic Metal), Nightwish (Symphonic Metal), Nine Inch Nails (Industrial), Saosin (Post-Hardcore), U2 (well we all know them), and Within Temptation (Symphonic Rock). So yeah, I'm mostly into rock/metal variants.

So how about you guys?

Hard to say, since I'm really selective with music. I don't own a single album on CD since I never like a band's overall compilation. I do have favorites that stick out more than others, though, and those would include the following:

The Exies
Green Day
Breaking Benjamin
Three Days Grace
Dishwalla
My Chemical Romance
No Doubt (classic stuff, not Gwen Stefani's solo career)

Heh, I'm predominantly a rocker, but I have a huge mix of stuff from video game/anime soundtracks to classical to oldies. So yea.  And I recognize Lacuna Coil; I've only got "Heaven's A Lie" by her.  Love how that song begins.

My "top 4" favorite bands would have to be...
(somewhat in order)

1. Good Charlotte
2. The Unseen
3. Nightwish
4. Rancid

I like a ton of other bands but I'm too lazy to list them. >>;
=3

My favourite singer/artist has to be Cascada. I love her songs.

I also like a bit of Jon Bon Jovi with "You give love a bad name" and "We're half way there". I like some Nelly Furtado too along with Lily Allen.

I rarely go so far as buying someone's CD, because like Shagster, I hardly like an artist's entire album.
I mostly listen to rock and new age, but I don't really have a favourite genre of music, I will listen to everything I find enjoyable at the moment. I swich from a gendre to another all the time in fact, 'cause listening to the same thing over and over again is really tiresome to me.

So I'm just going to say who're the ones that are currently standing out of the sea of music artists:

VAST (they're GODS!)
Akira Yamaoka (composer, he did the music for the Silent Hill series)
Enigma
Nelly Furtado
Chemical Romance
Nickelback
Crush 40
Within Temptation (currently REALLY hooked on some of their songs!)

Heh, yea. There are some bands I like just because of a few songs, such as Theory of a Deadman, Muse, and OK GO. Foo Fighters are awesome, too.

Heh, Silent Hill is love. I've got the soundtracks for parts two and three, and I listen to them every so often. The "I Want Love" studio mix from Silent Hill 3 is one of my favorites.

Well I do admit to owning 132 albums (yes I keep count) on CD but I also sorta go the same route as you guys do and just download a few songs I like by one band. Or at least, thats what I do now, since I've bought a lot of overall disappointing albums. :`(

Heh, I figured nobody would really pay attention to that.

And back on subject, I also like anything that sounds like retro rock. Really like that "Level" song by The Raconteurs, though I know of nothing else by them.

The Raconteurs - Level

I also admit to loving Europop techno stuff. DDR music hooks me >_>

Wow, Cannibal Corpse stuck out indefinitely there. I hardly, scratch that, have never seen brutal death metal like them listed with bands like P!ATD, Fall out Boy, MCR, etc. So props for that. It shows you actually do have diverse tastes and are not one of those stuck-up metalheads that automatically discredit any band that is deemed "yucky" by other metalheads.

No, I don't like absolutely every band on your list, but what I don't like more are people who hate on other people for listening to music they don't like. That's snobbery, and I FROWN upon it.

Anyway, I guess I'll make a list too.

"Weird Al" Yankovic (:D), After Forever, Alice Cooper, Alice in Chains, Amon Amarth, Anathema, Antoria, Arch Enemy, Ayreon, Black Sabbath, Blind Guardian, Bullet For My Valentine, Children of Bodom, Cradle of Filth, D.C. Simpson, Dark Tranquility (my favorite at the moment), Dimmu Borgir, Dire Straits, Dream Theater, Edguy, Elis, Epica, Evanescence, Fleetwood Mac, From First To Last, Genesis, Green Carnation, Iron Maiden, Josh Groban, Katatonia, Lacuna Coil, Lamb of God, Leaves' Eyes, Led Zeppelin, Linkin Park, Lunatica, Marylin Manson, Metallica, Muse, Nemesea, Nightwish, Nine Inch Nails, Nirvana, Opeth, P.O.D., Pink Floyd, Porcupine Tree, R.E.M., Rammstein, Rush, Saosin, Scary Kids Scaring Kids, Sirenia, Slipknot, Sonata Arctica, System of a Down, The Coors, The Doors, Tool, Tristania, Trivium, U2, Underoath, Vanessa Carlton, Within Temptation, Xandria.

Bands I have at least one album from.
