One best band? Cant be done, I'd be in permanent edit mode.... Oh well at this second of this minute it's Green Day
Who are they? I reckon Queen are the best ever! "I want to ride my bicycle" Classic Edit: Greenday also rule! \m/
The bestest band ever. :lol: They're a Scottish indie-pop group. DON'T LET THE WORD POP DISCOURAGE YOU! Their music is seriously some of the best ever comitted to tape. And their new album Goalkeeper's Revenge is out soon! Yay!
Wow! we almost like the same music... Just don't say any Boybands.... Or i will have to kill you all!
Yay!! Ricky Wilson is so great when you see him in a show, he can't stay still! I saw him on T4 and he broke the set! Way to go!! :lol:
Pink Floyd Rolling Stones The Who Grateful Dead Cream The Police Talking Heads Jethro Tull Buddy Holly Vivaldi Beethoven Bach put em all in a blender and grooooooooove.
Mooseman, try Tenacious D - Rock your socks off, it has a rocking Bach solo. Bestest band? Changes on a weekly basis. Right now... Revis, Seether or Chevelle.
Hmm. Bands... At the moment I'm going to go for: - London Elektricity (Live Drum 'n' Bass) But the Red Hot Chili Peppers rock immensly and are my alltime favorite.
I'm suprised no one has mentioned Led Zeppelin. They rock more than anything has ever rocked my socks before 8) Other bands that rock my socks: Deep Purple Pink Floyd AC/DC Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds Joy Division Nine Inch Nails Hawkwind New Order Black Sabbath Placebo Radiohead Franz Ferdinand System of a Down Orgy Interpol Midnight Oil Actually, come to think of it there heaps of bands that rock my socks. There should be a massive really excellent band made up of all the bands that are good. That would rock.
Have you heard "Tribute" by Tenacious D? That song rocks so hard. "All of a sudden, there shined a shiny demon in the middle of the road. And he said 'Play the best song in the world, or I'll eat your soul.'" :lol:
OK I like plenty of bands: System of a down KoRn A Perfect Circle Disturbed Slip knot Dash board confessional Finch Kings of Leon Marilin Manson Rob Zombie and the white stripes I also like Greenday, well the older stuff at least the new stuff I don't like at all :roll: . I also like blink 182. But they've split up now
So quite the Emo/Goth choice there.. but i noticed MCR or Nightwish arent in it :shock: ? Why not!! (They rock slightly) And i never knew Blink had broken up.. Oh well
Well, you asked for it. Here is a list of the Best Indie Bands In The World: (actually, they're not all indie. but still. My favourite bands.) Aberfeldy Arcade Fire Architecture in Helsinki Belle & Sebastian The Dresden Dolls Field Music The Futureheads The Lucksmiths M.I.A. Maximo Park Missy Higgins The Raveonettes Roisin Murphy Rufus Wainwright The Shins The Smiths Sufjan Stevens The Unicorns The Velvet Underground Voxtrot The ones in bold are the absolute best. :rock:
lol Toaf - up until now I've been congratulating myself on knowing 99% of the bands listed here. You just blew that out of the water!! *suddenly feels ancient* edited to remove surplus L because I'm not Welsh
don't worry Sarge - i have no idea what most of the people here in this thread are talking abou... er... ANYWAY, if you're downloading (or even better, buying!) around now, definitely get Sufjan Stevens' new album. Go on. You know you want to.
I know it suscks. I think it's because Travis (the drummer) signed a deal with MTV to do a reality TV programme called "at home with the barkers" I haven't watched it yet but it's meant to be good. Anyway reality TV destroyed the band (see! I told you, reality TV with be the death of us all). Mark and Tom have now joined a band called "box car racers" there pretty good, a little heavier than Blink. Travis has gone to another band, but it sucks and I don't know the name. anyway. MCR are good and I do like them but there way to over-rated. the lead singer if a big headed twat aswell. I'v heard of nightwish but never heard any of their music. A few people have told me that I would like HIM. Before anyone suggests them I think they suck. there just so melodramatic. How a band can be melodramatic useing music I don't know but they've managed it.
Bands? Hmm. I absolutely love Paris Combo. The Pillows, too. Excluding them, it's mostly non band type music for me.
Okay, thinking about it some more I've decided it's list time! Revis Seether Chevelle Submersed Tool A Perfect Circle The Exies Switchfoot Submersed is my favourite at the moment, you can listen to most of their songs here.
I don't have a best band, but part of a general list of very good bands. (I'm only mentioning ones that I don't think were mentioned already.) Blue Oyster Cult Nirvana Lou Reed/Velvet Underground The Kinks Heart
Hummm, the eternal question. I don't know how many times i've tried to answer this. The answer always changes. Muse are the best band around at the moment. The Beatles were the best band ever. I also really like Led Zepplin, Thin Lizzy, Hendirx, Rammstien, Kaiser Chiefs, Jack Johnson, Lynrd Skynrd, Gorillaz, (their new album is excellent) Nirvana, Eric Clapton, Leftfield... Some oddments: Jacques Loussier, who recreates Baroque classics as mellow jazz. Which sounds odd, but is super And my dad recently bought Dub Side Of The Moon... it's Dark Side of the Moon, totally re-done in reggae style. What Garner called "stoner music". Once, again, brilliant :shock:
Best new bands (ie debuted in the last year) for me are Bloc Party, The Bravery and The Killers (if they scrape through on the year thing). Otherwise? Radiohead and Coldplay are probably my two most listened to bands, which makes them my favourites. On the 'bands most people probably haven't heard of' scale, I also like Grandaddy, Kashmir and Lemonjelly in particular.
hey hey we're the monkees, and people say we monkey around But we're to busy luaghing to but anybody down I do like them and thier show was great.
Best Band Of All Time: Queen or U2. They both have unbelieveable back catalogues My Favourite Bands At The Moment: The Killers, Keane, Kaiser Chiefs, System Of A Down, Damien Rice. I've seen all of my current favourites in concert, except System
Hey, there is no shame in liking boys in eyeliner!! Though I agree, it's not the only reason to love placebo. Or Green Day. Or Nirvana, come to that. I can't choose the bestest band in the world, but I have many contenders who constantly fill my playlists: Queen Green Day Nirvana Muse! Velvet Revolver Placebo American Hi Fi Gorillaz Marilyn Manson No Doubt (and some of Gwen Stefani's solo work) Kaiser Chiefs Jimi Hendrix Bryan Adams Foo Fighters Jet Scissor Sisters My Chemical Romance Red Hot Chili Peppers The White Stripes Don't make me choose. I'll cry and be sad like Bob.
Noo!!! They, along with the other horrible pop-punk and pop-emo out there at the moment, should be on a list of the worst bands, not the best. < me when forced to listen to Green Day or MCR. Another bestest band that I really like is Ministry. Really good industrial stuff. Big influence on more mainstream bands like Nine Inch Nails.
Ludwig rocks. My favourite: The Doors, The Who, The Velvet Underground, R.E.M., Loving Spoonful, Joe Cocker, Hendrix, The Smiths, Blur, Pulp, The Killers, Eddie Cochrane, Simon & Garfunkel, Troggs, Zombies, Animals. Splean (Russian) Nautilus Pompilius (Russian) Vopli Vidoplasova (Ukrainan) Okean Elzy (Ukrainian) Ya i drug moy gruzovik (Me and my friend the lorry) (Ukrainian)
OK I'm adding some more....there just so good! Willie mason (or is that willy? I don't know) take back sunday coldplay Weir Al Yancovich (he's good for a laugh) Funeral for a friend Sum 41 and Monty python [i:968b2e3d19]I've got a loverly bunch of coconuts there they are stunning in their own give 'em a twist a flick o' the wrist thats what the showman said[/i:968b2e3d19]
If it's the Peter Gabriel incarnation then I will timidly admit to being one also. But not the Phil Collins one - no thanks!
Peter was a bit deep for me sometimes, still bloody good though! I prefer the earlier Collins stuff, especially And Then There Were Three. I must admit, not really fond of the new line-up
I forgot to add that Queen and the Beatles are only my favourite bands if were not taking into account the mighty McFly, of course.
If by PC you mean Phil Collins, Delphine, yes -thats' my era. Discussing Genesis can be a bit like talking about Dr Who- everyones got their own favourite!
