mega thread Favourite Musicians or Band

[TwilyTastic 88]

My favorite band is Nickelback, because I really like their music such as How You Remind Me and Too Bad. Nickelback's music has gotten me through some tough times, My favorite album from them is Silver Side Up. It's probably their best album. I usually get a lot of hate for liking them but I don't understand why :/ but anyways that's why I like them.

[CaptainDoubloon 856]

Right now I really like the band Claps for Caroline. The songs Cruel Memories, Prince Without A Crown, and Party Nerve are really good.

[Rebel the Wolfgirl 5,601]

My favorite band is GWAR. Because their loud, violent...and FUCKING AWESOME.

[Haruhi-chan 486]

I think it's safe to say that Gotcharocka is my new favorite band. 8D I happen to be absolutely in love with the lead singer who I personally call Duckie (He's actually called Jui but whatevs). I can't go five seconds without listening to them. If I do, my brain starts screaming at me, and I feel like I'm going to die. ;o; I don't more listen to rock bands since I'm into metal, but these guys are so amazing. <3

[Kat_Blazeclaws 73]

My favorite musician is Eminem and my favorite band is Fall Out Boy and I have no idea why I just like what I like.

[Rebel the Wolfgirl 5,601]

My favorite band is Maroon5 because Adam (the lead singer) sings beautifully. He is also super sexy!

GWAR could kick Maroon5's ass, and then eat them.

[Vox 870]

Anyone who knows me knows it's the Police. 

[Pooky 1]

Rap - Pleb here,

 

Favorite artist is a threeway tie for Tyler, The Creator - Childish Gambino - Kendrick.

Tyler for the "Out There," Songs and al around fun style.

Kendrick is a breath of fresh air for rap. He takes the catchy bars from mainstream hip hop and puts meaning in it. "Swimming Pools," is an AMAZING example.

Chidish Gambino might be the best lyricist out there today. He puts mood in his music and it shows.

 

 

 

[Haruhi-chan 486]

Not sure if I posted or not... lol I don't care. My answer probably needs to be updated, but I don't know where it is. >< Too lazy to try and find the damn thing either.

 

Five of my most favorite bands are SuG, Gotcharocka, SCREW, Matenrou Opera and Reign. Sure, I could name a dozen of ones I actually like such as Born, the GazettE, Alice Nine, Diaura, Sadie, Lycaon, RevleZ... the list could go on. However, I really enjoy the top five I listed because they are amazing as fuck. SuG started out kind of child-like and what not, but they are growing up now... so their music is starting to grow up with them too. After all, Takeru was only about 20 to 22 when SuG first came together. Now, he's 27 going on 28 on May 11th.
