favourite non-metal albums

[|ngenius]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! MISANTHROPE! You're in a big confusion!!! You're talking about another band, called "Avalanch". They're famous too here, but they're quite bad composers and players. The song you talked about is from their second studio album, with a new useless singer, as bad as the first one.

Avalanch sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[FatherVic]

Well pardon my robotic friend, so primal, so binary!
Avalanch sux yeap, but still have some good songs.
Aquí Estaré is one of the worst songs the metal scene has ever heard but if you pick their first album, I think La Taberna is much more stupid than Aquí Estaré!!!!

so many bands I listened to when I was a young teen... I was much into the whole american alternative scene, Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, I still listen to those bands when I'm feeling nostalgic.

Hmmm a list then...

Smashing Pumpkins- Mellon Collie & the Infinite sadness
Soundgarden- Superunknown
Radiohead- Ok Computer (but they are all great, one of those bands I have to see live before I die)
NIN- Downward Spiral
Eels- Electroshock Blues
Tool- Aenima
Cafe Tacuba- Re

I have a hard time answering this as I have so many non-metal bands I like... Pink Floyd, Devil Doll, Goethes Erben, Tori Amos' Little Earthquakes, blah, so many.

 

[Strider]

Yes, Genesis, King Crimson, PFM, Banco del Mutuo Soccorso, Le Orme, Pink Floyd, Van Der Graaf Generator, Anglagard, Landberk, Paatos, Thinking Plague, The Mars Volta.... basically good prog rock

Metal is really a non-dominant genre for me, although it used to be up until 10-ish years ago. I now listen to punk mainly (eg Bad Religion, Rancid, Snuff, etc etc etc), quite a lot of hardcore (Sick of It All, Agnostic Front), some Oi! (Oppressed, Oi Polloi, Last Resort), italian music ranging from singers/songwriters to folk to, again, punk and oi!... I'm not a big fan of electronica as a whole but I enjoy some bands a lot (Assemblage 23, :wumpscut:, vnv nation); I also happen to play some techno and some hard house every once in a while. Really, I listen to everything that comes my way with the exception of most pop - eventhough I have some electropop favourites, say the Pet Shop Boys, I normally hate the genre. Uh, big Eminem fan also, and I sometimes enjoy other rap artists (50 Cent, Dr Dre, Coolio, Tupac etc).
