Bands that never dissapointed you

Opeth, Meshuggah, Tool, Porcupine Tree, The Sword (not a great band but I've never been disappointed by their music), Daylight Dies, Ihsahn.
 
what, the part that a person can vote an album as being great without actually liking it?

meshuggah are one of the only bands with any swing so they get props
 
I like all the Meshuggah albums, so I guess I'd put them down, my list was moreso a favorite bands atm list, Meshuggah are one of the better metal bands atm, but wouldn't make my top 10-15 bands I listed.

Swing?

^ Soundtrack needs to be re-recorded with Meshuggah in the background. Would love to see all those folks doing the Lindy Hop to "Future Breed Machine" or something. My grandfather loved the Lindy...he was a rebel, and got thrown out of joints for doing it instead of the foxtrot or Charleston.

There are some other bands I wanted to say but I realized that they did, at one time, disappoint. They might have written an album where I thought they could've done better or something, but they did disappoint.

And some bands on my list were on the fence (Muse being one of them) and I almost didn't put Porcupine Tree because Metanoia still needs to grow on me.
 
Ok, groove as in groove. How do you figure they're one of the only bands who groove? At least I hope you mean the metal genre only.
 
yeah i meant the metal genre, obviously theres plenty of groove outside of the metal genre, like JAMES BROWN

meshuggah is possibly the only metal band that makes me want to dance. i dont know if its because of their rhythmic structure, the really low guitars or anything but it just does
 
Meshuggah is a phenomenon.... they never disappointed and im sure they won´t.

i dont want to hear the sound of distorted bullshit guitar, boring double bass drumming or screaming i think its bullshit.
btw: to bring this quote in relation with meshuggah is absolute bullshit.

Other bands that nver disappointed me are Opeth and Canvas Solaris.
(They did not only never disappoint me, they surprised me everytime the did something new...)
