What's your favorite band besides Iron Maiden?

Ones that I've been listening to forever:

Megadeth
Judas Priest (more the 70s than 80s)
Van Halen with Dave
Black Sabbath (Ozzy & Dio)
Anthrax
AC/DC with Bon
Rush (more the 70s than later)

Ones that I've gotten into just the last few years:

Death
Mastodon
Opeth
 
Alter Bridge has the guitarist of Creed right? Yeah that guy is great!

New bands, or I guess newish bands, you may laugh at me, but I love Evanescence! I have everything by them.

Alter Bridge basically is Creed with a new singer. The guitarist is called Mark Tremonti and he's awesome!! I was lucky enough to meet him at the start of the year and he's a top bloke!! :worship:

I like Evanescence too - Fallen is a great album. Not listened to The Open Door as much but I still like it.
 
Open Door are better compositions and production, but Falled rocks!

I have lots of unreleased Evenescence stuff from 1998-2002 before they got signed. Real interesting stuff.

So all the members of Creed besides Scott Stapp are Alter Bridge with a new singer?

I saw Creed a long time ago and was really impressed by the amount of emotion and heart they had.

Prototype rocks! They do a mighty fine rendition of "Sea of Madness" ta boot!

Yep. The line-up is Mark Tremonti, Brian Marshall, Scott Phillips and Myles Kennedy. Alter Bridge are amazing and a fantastic live band as well. :kickass:
 
Lately the new Death Angel is unbeleivable. I can't take it off. Jenna, did you catch them in Glascow?
Also love Metallica...even St Anger...love the message 'cuz I can relate, but it's also the rawness i dig. I know they say the new one will be be very different, but whatever I like it all. I'm just easy like that and not a snob.
Then, of course the good 'ol Slayer, Preist, AC/DC, ABBA, 1st 6 VH, Exodus, Testament, Hall & Oates...
 
ABBA & Hall & Oats?

By the way, why was John Oats even there? Anyone know what purpose he served? I mean, at least Art Garfunkle sang.

No I didn't. I don't even know what they sound like!! :lol:

And I love you btw!!!! :lol:

Also ABBA are fucking awesome!!! I was very happily singing along to Mammia Mia the other day, that's my favourite ABBA song. :cool:

Hall and Oates - one of my faves - Abandoned Luncheonette is a fantastic record! Even though John Oates was born in NY - PA claims 'em as the boys who made good! :headbang:

But in reply to your question, Acujer - John Oates sang, too! Check their vocal harmonies! It's what put them on the map initially (especially to me- I've always been a freak for the vocal blend) Smooth as silk, those boys were!

I think he also was heavily involved in production as well.... That and the songwriting made him more than just the guy with the mustache next to the hot blonde dude! :lol:
 
"Smooth as silk, those boys were! "

Kind of like Lionel, who's easy as Sunday Morning.

Kind of makes me want to smoke a Kool Menthol on satin sheets.

I remember John Oats playing guitar and not singing though. Maybe I forgot about their harmonies.
 
Not to rain on your parade but I absolutely hate The Eagles with a passion and think Hotel Calfornia sucks balls big time! What a crap band and crap song! I hope I never hear that song or the even worse the acoustic version ever again. Almost as bad as Freebird!

When I lived in Asia fro 3 years, you'd hear Hotel California everywhere. That and Mariah Carey's Titanic Theme. Both bloody shite!

I do love Joe Walsh though.

Ok. :) (and it was Celine Dion, not Mariah Carey).
 
1) I love Haggis! I have celebrated burns (sp) night in Scotland at Turnbury Golf Course..was just fab.

2) Megadeth
3) Swallow the Sun
4) Machine Men

I don't like prog metal either particularly. I'm not a big Rush fan (I think you either love or hate Geddy's voice), and I can't stand a lot of the power metal like Dragonforce and so on.

But, I highly doubt many people love Swallow the Sun like I do...and that's just A-OK :)
