oh yea and
......................NOVEMBRE, NOVEMBRE, NOVEMBRE
 
TOOL

Though I wouldn't say that I couldn't live without them. The only bands I couldn't live without are Dark Tranquillity, At the Gates, Massive Attack and Tricky (artist, not actually band).
 
Greetings.

I'd say, without a doubt, VNV Nation, although it's far from being metal.... But it's so transcending I could hardly live without their entire discography now.

Metally speaking, I'd go for.... err... Lacrimosa and My Dying Bride, but due to the fact that I only own 1 album from each band, it's hard to say I couldn't live without.
 
Just one? Man, I've discovered way too many bands this year to name just one. Here are the ones I found in 2001 that I can't live without:

Otyg
Shape of Despair
Evoken
Finntroll
 
I don't like SoaD that much. Anyways I would have to pick Borknagar and Sigh! Those are two awesome bands. AND IMO I DONT THINK SIGHT GOT ENOUGH CREDIT!!!!!!:(
 
I would say that the fact that I have internet on my house until April this year makes me new in the net, thought I enter to it several years ago, but only on work places, Cyber cafes or Institutes or Universities.

Well the fact is that my discovery of this year would be absolutely:

ULTIMATE METAL!!!!!!!!!!!!

:hotjump:
 
Since Im new to metal, i.e started listening to it only 2 years ago, there are a LOT of bands which I discovered for the first time and its impossible to pick just one of them. .unfair too.
At The Gates, Burzum, Lux Occulta, Cryptopsy, Sacramentum and Rudra would be my pick.
