Huh. I didn't know you were into any rock at all. I LOVE Fleetwood Mac. I have every single album (yes, I still call them that...I've dated myself) from Bare Trees and beyond. Smashmouth is a fun band, I have a couple of theirs. Goo Goo's? No, a little too...um, ballad for me. Not big into Creed or Sting either, though I don't hate either. Doobie's and Moody's...cool foxy. :yup: Queen and Santana are a couple that I'm burnt out on, only because I played my old records into string way back when. I used to love Journey back in the day, great music to kiss by back in the eighties. Billy Joel is similar to Elton John I think, but Americanized. I admire them both, but I'm a huge Elton fan, and not a huge Joel fan. T. Chapman...um, no thanx. You're pretty groovy, you dig?

1. Led Zeppelin
5. Dream Theater
6. KISS
7. Dream Theater

Good list! Do you like Dream Theater a LOT, or is this just a type-O? (i know it's a simple mistake, I'm just being a smartarse.) Led Zeppelin is the best, and thank God that atleast 3 or 4 people put KISS on the list.

led_zeppelin

01-11-04, 12:37 PM

I'm just being a smartarse.

Oh BTW, I'm not British, I just read High Fidelity and they use that a lot. I'm not saying being British is bad, without them, we would have no Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd. . .hem hem. . .THE BEATLES!! And we would have no bands that KISS could idolize. So without them, we MIGHT not have KISS. Just making a point.

01-11-04, 10:27 PM

13=lowest on list 1=best band ever IMO Every band on here are my favorites, so don't be surprised that I have Aerosmith for 13.

13.Aerosmith
12.Soundgarden
11.DC Talk (christian rock, but it's still good rock n' roll)
10.Alice in Chains
9.Lynard Skynard
8.System of a Down
7.the Beatles
6.ACDC
5.Nirvana
4.Van Halen
3.Def Leppard
2.KISS
1.Led Zeppelin

cool list BTW on DC Talk have you heard the group members on-their-own albums? Anyway once you hear them (stereotype be-Kevin Max, empty- Micheal Tait, and Extreme Days, Toby Mac) the way the band blended different styles makes sense, all of their albums are good and in all different styles, but if I HAD to reccomend one, it would be stereotype be which is Kevin Max's one, the lyrics are so deep and themusic is awesome but not as rock more alternative, and KISS rocks, and without the Beatles...well there is no 'without the beatles' it would be too horrible.

Ohhh man you have no idea how right you are on everything! Yes I have haerd them by themselves, and I must say K-Max is awesome. I'm not to fond of Michael's stuff, but Toby Mac (who signed my DC Talk shirt) is my favorite. I see him live at Creation Fest every year, he is by far the best at pumping up a crowd. Have you heard of Creation Fest? There is Creation East, and Creation West. Four (or is it 3) days of the biggest christian bands, 100,000 people! Just go to
www.creationfest.com (http://creationfest.com) I have seen KISS live, and they are the coolest! And yes, without the Beatles,. . .ugh I'm gonna have nightmares.

01-28-04, 06:22 PM

Have you heard Opeth's older stuff? It's quite superior to just about all Dream Theater.

No, I haven't. If it is superior to Dream Theater I'm interested in hearing it. How about reccomending an album? :)

Looks like you have pretty good taste... anyway, what do you think is Opeth's best album?

Right now: Blackwater Park, but Still Life is right behind it.

9)Kiss (Favourite song by them: Crazy Nights)

GOOD CHOICE for bands, but not for songs. :) Sorry, KISS is my second favorite band of all time but that song just drives me crazy. If you're in to KISS in the 80's above the 70's or 90's, then I suggest Young and Wasted, Hide Your Heart, War Machine or maybe even Rise to It.

Its simply amazing how I can listen to the exact same song over and over again, which just replaces a couple words with whatever the song title is, and still be amused for hours on end.

You are awesome too. I didn't know you were into heavy metal too. Ever since I've known you, I thought you only liked the classic rock stuff. But this is cool because I also like some heavy metal. I don't know if you'll like them but do you like Disturbed as well? But thank God you put Zeppelin at # 1.
