[JayKeeley]

This is crazy...it just can't be done...it needs to be broken into genres...ok, in no order and I'll try to span the genres:

IRON MAIDEN (heavy)
RADIOHEAD (brit prog)
EDGUY (power)
EMPYRIUM (neo-folk)
SEPULTURA (thrash/core)
SIMON & GARFUNKEL (beatnik)
EMPEROR (black)
AMORPHIS (prog)
MEGADETH (speed)
OPETH (death)

The Beatles exist in a class all of their own. That much is obvious, so they are overqualified for my list.

 

[Black Winter Day]

i almost included s&g on my list too. . . their stuff is so unbelievably meaningful to me, as is neil young's

 

[lurch70]

SLAYER
THE EAGLES
MOTLEY CRUE
DEATH
DECAPITATED
QUEENSRYCHE
OBITUARY
DOKKEN
NEGURA BUNGET
METALLICA

 

[J.]

In no order:

Arcane Sun
Neurosis
Graveland
Summoning
Isis
Geasa
Today is the Day
Primordial
Poison the Well
In the Woods...

Simon and Garfunkel rule.

 

[JayKeeley]

Summoning

That reminds me, have you heard any Rakoth then?

 

[bloodfiredeath]

Are we talking all time, or right now? Each would be a very different list.

 

[NAD]

If we're going by genres...

Death metal: Morbid Angel
Grindcore: Carcass
Melodic death: Hypocrisy
Drug music: Pink Floyd
Progressive: King Crimson
Progressive Death: Opeth
Egyptian Death: Nile
Butcher Death: Aborted
Black Death Melodic Crazy: Dissection
Classic Rock With Flutes And Shit: Jethro Tull
Classic Rock Without Flutes And Shit: Led Zeppelin
Industrial But Not: Nine Inch Nails
Guitar Hero Wankfest: Steve Vai
I Don't Know But I Like It Genre: Nuclear Rabbit
We Used To Be Good But Now We Suck Ass Genre: Pearl Jam
We're Fucking Punk You Dolt, NOT Alternative: Nirvana
B-movie Punk: The Misfits
Wasted Talent Due To Early Death: Alice in Chains

Genres are ghey. :Smokedev:

 

[JayKeeley]

You missed "Music to fuck to"....oh my bad, you have Aborted already.

 

[NAD]

Nothin' quite like a striptease at 320 bpm...

 

[Weapon X]

1. Annihilator
2. Megadeth
3. Sepultura
4. Queen
5. Arch Enemy
6. Kreator
7. Swollen Members
8. N.W.A.
9. Pantera
10. Soulfly

As I mentioned Soulfly, every single member has left that band except Max. I think Max need take some courses on creating a better inter-personal skills.

Max needs to get his shit together and join his brother again ... do another record and tour and then quit.

 

[Hell Mike]

In no particular order:
MAYHEM
METALLICA
ULVER
BURZUM
(All four old - haven't heard the new ulver or burzum nor do I feel a need to)
NEGURÃ BUNGET
NIFELHEIM
CARPATHIAN FOREST
TAAKE
DARKTHRONE
And last but not least NASHEIM

Boring list but there you go. I'd rather make a top 100 or at elast 50 so I wouldn't have to be so picky and change my mind in about five seconds.

 

[bloodfiredeath]

I went with all time, and this of course is subject to change.

Carcass
Grave
Ida
Iron Maiden
Jawbreaker
Kreator
Palace/Will Oldham
The Smiths
Smog
Testament
