Game: ultimate non-metal band

[QRV]

Here it is. I included most from the lists made in the preparatory thread and a few others I've seen mentioned here. This will be interesting.

You know the rules, every member can give 2 daily points and substract another 2 to any band of his choice.

I start.

nice band list

 

[Blitzkrieg Pajo]

I would of liked it if Dover were on the list

 

[QRV]

10 - Infected Mushroom ? never heard of them

That's pretty somber and deranged electronica. Personally I can't stand it much. It's good, but quite twisted and, I don't know, it makes me feel like crazy, even when I'm sober.

Thanks QRV, but SOAD and Staind in here? SOAD is definitely close to metal to me (they have kinda thrash riffs, dont they?). Well, Staind, why not, they suck anyway.

Right, I didn't think of SOAD like metal. Must have been because their image or something, but certainly they're sort of metal. I've never listened to Staind, just heard they're kind of nu-metal; just saw them on one of the lists and thought, why not? We need variety here.

@Blitzkrieg: You're right, Dover would have been a good choice. Sorry, mate.

I'd have loved to include The Tiger Lillies as well, but I didn't think they'd stand a chance. And somehow, I find it very logical that people who voted for In Flames on the other thread are now supporting Muse. :Smug:
