I've always had a soft spot in my heart for Gwar. They crack me the hell up, and nothing beats metal played by a bunch of dudes in rubber monster costumes.

[DaveW]

Hey, you heard of the Protomen Rankenphile?

-Dave

[CanaBalistic]

I dont really have one favorite, I like all music equally.

Insane Clown Posse
ZZ Top
Van Halen
U2
White Stripes
Tragically Hip
Swollen Members
Steel Dragon

There is more but thats plenty for this post. I've got over 1500 Songs on my PC and i like every single one.

[Rankenphile]

Hey, you heard of the Protomen Rankenphile?

-Dave

I've heard of them, but can't say I've heard their stuff.

[.Maleficus.]

Some of my favorites right now:

Dream Theater
Symphony X
Pantera
Shadows Fall
Pain of Salvation
Slayer
Boston
Kansas

Progressive, to symphonic metal, heavy metal, and classic rock. Symphony X is especially good, Michael Romeo is one of the best guitarists I've ever heard, and one of my biggest inspirations for guitar playing : P

[Omega]

Dragonforce.

Extreme british power metal about midevial stuff and wars and insane gitaur solos, all mixed in with booze.

Insane Clown Posse
ZZ Top
Van Halen
U2
White Stripes
Tragically Hip

A lot of those bands are good. But there is one song by the white stripes that is always in my head. It's something like seven nation army or something

[Canadian Eh?]

[Rankenphile]

Dragonforce.

Extreme british power metal about midevial stuff and wars and insane gitaur solos, all mixed in with booze.

Gotta love it.

oh man, Dragonforce rules. I love good cheeze metal like that.

If you like them check out Falconer, Blind Guardian and Three Inches of Blood. So awesome.

[CanaBalistic]

What p2p do you guys use?

I use Ares and if there is somthing i cant find on that then i'll use DC++

Oh man. I love dragonforce. Alot. Just cause it's cheesy don't mean it ain't good music, though.

You have to admit, the gitaur solos blow you away.


Anywho, yeah, I gotta get some blind guardian (Mother****in' Dragons n' ****!).


I got "The Black Halo" by Kamelot yesterday, it owns.

Its not illegal if you allready "own" the songs and are downloading a backup copy...

And hey, lets face the facts...
Everyone does it, and if they say they dont, they lie.

[Rankenphile]

look, I don't care how you look at it, I don't care if you do it or not.

but I do care if you talk about it here, provide links to it, discuss it in any matter. The fact is that it is against the law, and providing links to illegal software, discussions about software or copyright piracy has no place on this board.

I've been pretty strong about this in the past, and I aim to stay that way. Any threads will be deleted and the author warned. Repeated warnings will lead to vacations from this board, permanent or otherwise.

[Canadian Eh?]

i'm with rankenphile

I prefer to purchase my music legally. I have never downloaded music off the net. I would rather have the physical product in my hands to drool over and read liner notes and stuff. IMHO cd's ruined the album art. I have Pink Floyd's the wall on LP and cd and DVD (ok so I like the album), and prefer the liner notes that came with the LP. The artwork is also more detailed at 12" vs 5".

[.Maleficus.]

I like this thread... I now have another band that I like... a band that seems to be popular around here... Dragonforce. It kinda reminds me of some of the older Symphony X. You gotta love insane guitar and drumming, and they are one of the only bands now that has a key-tar, or whatever it's called.

[GT40_GearHead]

hey here is a nother one from the shelf:
Tiamat

A keyboard?

lol

yeah man, it's just a normal keyboard that the dude uses, dual gitaurs, single bass, drums & vocals.

I love dragonforce. So much.

[.Maleficus.]

Hmmmm... I think he may play both, because in their MySpace, he is playing one of the keyboard-guitar things, but on the DragonForce website, it looks like it's just a regular keyboard. Either way, they're still awesome.

[blue73]

...Funny I actually hated them in Middle School, about a year ago I met my friend who loves LP. He played it so much I started to like them :rolleyes:

[Slug Toy]

you know, i see a general trend here.

i dont think ive seen one mention of the backstreet boys, or spice girls, or any of those pansy-ass bands. thank god for that too, or else there would be some good old fashioned public flogging going on.

[MitaPi]

No joke, if I find out that one of you likes one of those pop bands... I WILL DRAW AND QUARTER YOU! lol maybe a bit too harsh?

[DaveW]

any of those pansy-ass bands

Come on now. the word bands would imply that there was music in the equation somewhere. ;)

-Dave

[.Maleficus.]

Oh yeah, anyone else here go to Ozzfest this year? A lot of the bands were crap, but Dragonforce, Ozzy, and BLS played, and they owned. Majorly.

Dragonforce only got 25 minutes to do their set though :(.

[b4i7]

yeah canadian...im a huge slipknot fan....seen them in concert...and all i gottta say is wow:eek:

[Luke122]

Slipknot used to be my favorite band, passed now by Soilwork! Swedish Metal is the greatest.

I'm also into Bullet for my Valentine, In Flames, Arch Enemy, and from the UK, Breedapart. If you like your drummer to sound like an impossibly fast robot, breedapart is for you.

I love it.

[nil8]

Clutch.

Heh, Symphony X. I have the "Divine Wings of Tragedy" Album. Pretty good.


Update on anything i said earlier in the thread:

Iron Maiden
DragonForce (kinda)
Gamma Ray
System of a Down
Iced Earth
Kamelot (<33333)

[.Maleficus.]

I like "The Odyssey" better. There is some crazy stuff on that cd. And the song, "The Odyssey" is awesome.

[purdy]

Here is a list of SOME of my fav bands.
The Strokes (fav band of all time), Ben Lee, Jack Johnson, Razorlight, The Misfits, Arctic Monkeys, Beastie Boys, Beck, Billy Talent, Coldplay, Daft Punk, David Bowie, Duran Duran, Guns N' Roses, Jane's Addiction, John Mayer, Keane, Led Zeppelin, Linkin Park, LL Cool J, Lou Reed & The Velvet Underground, Michael Jackson, Modest Mouse, Oasis, Queen, Queens Of The Stone Age, Red Hot Chili Peppers, REM, Run DMC, Smashing Pumpkins, Sting & The Police, Stone Temple Pilots, Sublime, The Arcade Fire, The Clash, The Hives, The Killers, The Rolling Stones, Tom Petty, Weezer, Weird Al Yankovich (if he even counts). Unfortunately, that's all I could think of right now, so for the many of you artists and groups I left out, I'm so sorry lol.

[b4i7]

mebbe you missed the whole discussion about the piracy thing....wouldnt be something to be puttin in your post....


on topic

lately ive been listenin to a LOT of DJ tiesto

my music varies from day to day.....mainly techno right now

[purdy]

I guess I did miss the piracy discussion, however I must thank Limewire for introducing me to some amazing bands which I then bought their album lol

[Scotty]

Been listenig to Feeder latley there new album (The Singles) is great

And Snow Patrol

[purdy]

Snow Patrol's another good one :D

[simon275]

I don't like Snow Patrol.

[Omega]

Meh I used to pirate music but i can't be arsed anymore, it's risky, virii, wrong files, legal trouble =/

i've started buying albums, i think the most recent 3 or 4 i've bought (which has included Iron Maiden's "Powerslave", Lyketha Aflame's "Elvenfris", Dark Tranquility's "Character" and a few others)

oh, if you like metal at all, particularly death, speed, or power, check out Elvenfris. It's a simply amazing album.

[.Maleficus.]

Ahhh, Powerslave. That is a great album too. The last album I bought was "Enter Deception" by Cellador. There is still one band that I find particularly interesting, and that is Symphony X. There seems to be a lot of progressive, power, and other kinds of metal bands that have lots of fantasy and history as their subject matter, but Symphony X just does something different. Yes, they sing about The Odyssey, and dragons, and things like that, but they have stuff that nobody else can even compare to. Like the song "The Odyssey", that is one of the most amazing songs I've ever heard. It is just incredible. If you like metal at all, that is another album to check out.

[purdy]

I saw DeathFromAbove1979 in concert.... they sucked. Lol. Their cd's good but because they're just a bass and drums, it's extremely overpowering. Everyone seems to be talking about Type O' Negative. My question to you fans, if I could only hear one song from them, what would it be?

[GT40_GearHead]

Type O' Negative - Black No 1

[Jarnauga]

In alphabetical order. :p

36 Crazyfists
Atreyu
Avenged Sevenfold
Black Sabbath
Bullet For My Valentine
Creedence Clearwater Revival (what the hell is that doing in this list? :D)
Godsmack
Iron Maiden
Killswitch Engage
MEGADETH (Dave Mustaine IS A GOD! *headbangs*)
Trivium
...

[GT40_GearHead]

i agree to that: dave mustaine is GOD, the guy shreds to the songs O_o
