Huh? What?
 
:smt023 What kind(s) of rock/bands?
So much stuff, I have a big digital collection, with the classics, hendrix, stones etc... Stoner rock bands, similar to Queens of the stone age. I like a lot of psychedelic rock too. Some new bands like tame impala and so on. Haha so much stuff, I even have a small vinyl collection. What about you?

Are you eastern European? I listen to some stuff you said too. Rage against the machine sounds like my teenage years haha I really like 80's music as well, but sometimes it's not rock, Depeche mode is pretty good.

Since you like Joy Division, do you like New Order? I like all the stuff you listed and that I know/heard before. Have you heard Tricky before? You might like him since you listed Massive Attack (twice :)) and Portishead. He's more trip hop though. Earlier today I posted a bunch of his videos under the music video thread. You may wanna check him out if you don't know him. :p

LOL @ 2XMassive Attack. I sadlw them live a few years ago - it was a great show. I love New Order as well. I was just trying to type a variety of bands from different styles of music to cover as many bases as possible. I think Tricky is great as well. I really liked his cover of "Black Steel In The Hour of Chaos" by Public Enemy.

Interesting topic...

Metal the way it is supposed to be doesn't exist anymore. I was exposed to it growing up in the 80s and 90s. My faves in middle school to high school were Metallica, Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, Motley Crue, Whitesnake, and of course Guns and Roses. Yeah, I listened to all of it with my suburban neighborhood friends. For the record, these were the same kids into Wu-Tang and B.I.G., so it goes both ways.

These days if I wanted to listen to rock or "hard rock", it's more about bands I got into maybe 5 to 10 years back. Linkin Park is great. I had a feel for what Evanescence and Amy Lee were doing. Other great artists in no particular order: Jack White (Rancoteurs and White Stripes), Panic at the Disco, Jimmy Eat World (west coast punk legends), My Chemical Romance, Korn, definitely Smashing Pumpkins, Pat Benetar, The Killers, Pearl Jam, Black Keys, and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs (technically emo). Big fan of all of those acts. There are a lot others but I listen to everything, I'd go on and on.

Have you heard of this newer, and not as mainstream, Canadian band called The Birthday Massacre? It's also a band with an awesome female lead singer, but their sound may be slightly heavier than Evanescence's. Definitely one of my favorite bands. Have seen them live every time they'd played in South Florida. They put on awesome live shows.

Only time I listened to it was when my friend would pay it in his Jeep. We'd drive around the island getting weird looks from the locals. Good times.


This was my favorite one.

Yeah, digital made music collecting much easier. My former roommate had a SICK vinyl collection, but I don't have 20 years to collect like that. Totally down with Queens...

I'll have to check out Birthday Massacre, that is new to me. Love me some Rage back in the day, and Depeche Mode... any day. Tried to get into but never saw the appeal of Sublime or Tori Amos; think it's more of a cult thing. Jane's Addiction are legends. Actually dug some of Rammstein's shit and Massive Attack are huge to me. I consider them more electronic than rock, but whatev.

I have a stupid long story about the Ill Communication album that most would probably find boring. Simply put, If people don't respect Beastie I don't respect them.
 
You're in a band? What do you play?

Right now, I'm Jamming with my old college buddy's for the moment.

We ain't going nowhere, it's just a fantasy for husbands to get out of the house,lol.:p

I played in several bands locally after college to some cash over the Winter months. Back in 2008 I played bass for Cathexis. A metal band that been around for twenty years, in drop-D tuning.

Great group of musicans, after learning a 30 song catalog and co-wrote three new songs I left the band after nine months.:(

I found this on Cathexis myspace page, only the live demo you see on there I co-wrote.
