[Rainboom24 46]

i know this is probably super mainstream, but....bob marley. 'nuff said. oh and i really like chris martin, too (coldplay)

[Cloud-Kicker 103]

I was going to but Tosin. But you dear awesome sir, have beat me to it. So here one of mine.

 

MISHA MANSOOR

 

 

 

He is the guitarist of the band periphery and has a solo project called Bulb. He is amazing and his grooves with make you want to jitter bug.

 

Dammit! I was gonna post Tosin too, my second choice was Misha! At least it's good to know these incredibly talented guys aren't going unnoticed.

 

One of my Fav's at the moment. Gutherie Govan! This guy is a god among men!

At present, my favorite artists are the Mills Brothers. There are very few works by them that I can pass up. They were a very popular vocal group starting from around the early 1930's all the way to the 1960's and beyond. Their popularity was well deserved and they even made it into the vocal group hall of fame.

 

- better quality example.

[Rion 4]

Modest Mouse, Ugly Casanova, Passion Pit, Fleet Foxes, Morning Teleportation.

 

They're all great bands, I'd suggest looking up some songs by them. They won't disappoint!

The Beatles, Rammstein, and Sabaton are my big three faves.

[Random User 249]

I have a deep-rooted love for Megadeth. Their various themes, styles, etc... They all are very pleasing to me. I absolutely love them.

 

A close second would have to be GWAR, who are possible the most obscene folks that ever graced thrash metal. Their blatant disrespect for what is considered moral in this country is very appealing. It's as if you're touching the face of taboo, and that makes it all the more exciting to listen to.

The Beatles

 

Two votes for Beatles. Beatles win!

[ProjectRKA 2,848]

Nightwish comes in a close second.

[MVC NVMXD JVRXD 2,406]

Lately, I've been listening to a lot of the following guitar players: Tobin Abasi, Fredrik Thordendal, Munky and Head (Korn), Misha Mansoor, Stephen Carpenter, Dave Mustaine, and Jeff Loomis.

 

Oh, and Buckethead is always a fav.

 

But other instruments.... I like Tomas Haake and Morgen Agren.

[A Blithering Div 247]

Liquid Tension Experiment or what I like to call the quartet of awesome is my favorite "band" as of late. Favorite musicians consist of not just the 4 from LTE but also Guthrie Govan, Shawn Lane, Paul Gilbert, Jonas Hellborg and Adam Hurst.

[iDoctor Whooves 28]

Nirvana is currently my favorite

[Tom 891]

Too many to list so I'll take the first one that comes to mind: Rammstein.

 

sonata Arctica

 

Nightwish comes in a close second.

 

These two as well.

Sonata Arctica doesn't seem so popular here, only three people have mentioned them.

Don't know who they are? Then go back in time and listen to them.

[Ol' Sarge 885]

Ace of Base.

 

Don't know who they are? Then go back in time and listen to them.

 

They're still around or are you going on the way back machine?
