{groan}... I hate picking out favourites

 

SikTh

Paul Gilbert

Trivium

Jimmy Eat World

Meshuggah

Periphery

The Manic Shine

Rage Against The Machine

Audioslave

The Beatles

Bob Marley

Django Reinhardt

Foo Fighters

Stereophonics

 

and so many many more that I either haven't given enough time or just miss out on being considered 'favourite'

[Tsukuyomi-MLP 33]

Well people, if you plan on searching for any of these I hope you don't mind non-English songs because most of these bands are from Japan..... well, more like the East Asia region in general.

 

These aren't in any particular order, it's literally just in the order that I think of them as I'm writing this post.

• 嵐 (Arashi)
• Bump of Chicken <- nice name ya got there, band.
• Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas <- and yes, in Japan there's a band that goes by that name.
• The Blue Hearts <- I know they disbanded before I was even 1 but I still love them.
• Yoshida Brothers <- ♫ One of these things is not like the others! ♫
• Porno Graffiti <- I have no idea what these guys were thinking when they named their band, seriously.
• Fahrenheit
• SHINee
• The GAG Quartet <- aww man, they don't have a Wikipedia page.
• The Axis of Awesome

Also, if I were allowed to take a more..... liberal.... interpretation of the word "bands", I guess you could say that you can include Vocaloid's (Hatsune Miku, Kagamine Rin and Ren, Kamui Gakupo, KAITO, GUMI, Yan He, Luo Tianyi, those ones).

[Rocket Punk 476]

Wow, if I had to type all my favorite bands, that would take a while... But let's try, in no particular order (maybe a little at the beginning).

Alestorm

Bullet for My Valentine

[Discordian 6,015]

These days I don't pay as much attention to favorite bands as favorite songs but some bands I consistently go back to are Falconer, Iced Earth, Skeletonwitch, Amon Amarth, Disturbed, System of a Down, Dream Evil, Cradle of Filth, Dio, Manowar, Hammerfall, Black Majesty and Dark Moor.

 

Most of these are just bands that pop up on my Pandora stations a lot. I never skip past their songs.

[Starlighty 800]

Maroon 5

Fun.

Neon tree

Gym class Heros

Fall out boy.

Train.

[Discordian 6,015]

I gotta throw Hollywood Undead in there too. I don't know too many songs by them but every time I listen to them they're the best damn thing to ever come out of music.

[Chicken Tendy 1]

Judas Priest man! I'm surprised they didn't make anyone's list. Or I could've missed it.

 

[Miles 2,512]

I'm a rocker to the core.

• Adema
• Korn
• Linkin Park
• Nirvana
• Stone Temple Pilots
• Red
• Seether
• Flyleaf
• Switchfoot
• Soundgarden
  (And a ton more rock bands)

I do like other genres and bands, of course.

• Alison Krauss
• Jamey Johnson
• Eric Church
  (A few other country)

And a few misc/dubstep/other...

• Skrillex
• Rabiesbun
• VinylScratchDjPony (AKA The Official Pon3)
  (A few others)

Obviously a non-exhaustive list, and I don't mind some hip-hop or rap every now and then.

Again, though... I love my rock music.

~ Miles

I think I'm late to the party but I'm glad their hiatus is over. I can't wait to see what Immortalized has in store for us.
