I'm sorry I said that the Foo Fighters are gay. I didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings. I often forget that harsh opinions can be hurtful. Besides, Cold is probably waaaaay gayer than the Foo Fighters. Even though I've never heard of them. Are they a british pop band or something?

Katatonia
Soad

[AlexGuinness]

There has been no change in the top 3 for the last 10 years, the top position has remained unchanged for 20 years now...

1 New Model Army
2 Opeth
3 Queen

Then the rest changes regularly. At the moment...

4 Anything Swanö related (cheating, I know, but the man is a genius)
5 Porcupine Tree

Katatonia are not far behind, they would almost certainly appear in my top 20. That may not sound like much, but that is actually very high praise considering the size of my music collection.

 

[Medy]

1 Paradise Lost (the Gods of Doom/Gothic metal, i think Blakkheim agrees )
2 Katatonia (signed the best album ever, LFDGD)
3 Anathema
4 My Dying Bride
5 Opeth

 

[Alustriel]

1 Katatonia
2 old My Dying Bride / Theatre of Tragedy
3 Saturnus
4 Novembre
5 old Autumnblaze (only one album in fact...)

[A Stranger]

put system of a down before katatonia? even after hearing "steal this album"? odd...

3. The Gathering

I like tons of bands but those three I am fanatical about.

 

[MECOSARIO]

Heh, actually I think it's my favorite SOAD record at the moment. Didn't like it at first, but somehow it grew on me. Mesmerize got boring quite quickly and I just happened to have Steal This Album lying in my car. I gave it a couple of spins and it actually sounded quite refreshing, not so polished and calculated as Mesmerize.

And my "top band list" goes as follows:

1. Dark Tranquillity
2. At The Gates
3. Babylon Whores
4. Katatonia
5. Anathema

 

[A Stranger]

1 Katatonia
2 Porcupine tree
3 Isis
4 Team sleep
5 A Perfect Circle (not including emotive which is good but not top 5 good)

has anyone else heard team sleeps album yet? its surprizingly good. i thought at least.

 

[AsIDied]

1. Paradise Lost.
2. Alice in Chains.
3. Katatonia.
4. Pantera.
5. My Dying Bride.
