music Favorite Rock Bands?

[Rugby Brony 23]

Just list your 5 favorite rock bands and why:

 

5) Meatloaf: Great love songs but still has a great sound, and his songs with Jack Black are great.

 

4) Built To Spill: A band from the 90's still kicking today with that great indie sound I love.

 

3) The Vaccines: A newer band with catchy tunes and that college rock theme.

 

2) Gorillaz: I can't believe it started as a pet project, but they are just so great and can mix so many genres together, one of the only bands I can listen to a whole album song after song without the need for flare.

 

1) The Doors: Jim Morrison was a great singer and their sound just amazes me still (Listening to When the Music's Over now) I personally think they should be in the Top 5 Best Rock Bands of All Time.

 

Here's a mural an art teacher gave me:

I don't know why the picture didn't post >_<

Heya , just letting you know that I moved your topic from General Discussion to Media Discussion, and affixed it with a Music prefix. It fits best in Media Discussion as it deals with music, an aspect of the media. General Discussion should be used for posting discussion topics that don't fit anywhere else.

I'm not a huge rock listener myself, so I couldn't list 5. I'm more into metal, especially symphonic/melodic death metal. But, I like some classic rock such as Europe, and some stuff by Dio and the Rolling Stones.

Nice choices! I feel weird though I mean these bands listed are great, I guess I just like indie rock over classic, well except The Doors of course lol but it's all in each person's taste, and as an aspiring philosopher, Nietzsche once said that there is no one ultimate truth, each person to their own; and I'm glad nobody here is a cookie-cutter and likes the same things
