Ok I know there are a lot of threads about music out there, but I haven't come across one where you can just post your favorite bands and post a link to one of your favorite songs by them. I actually have found one band posted in the Skyrim Thread about "what song fits your character" or something that I really liked and bought and have listened to ever since I heard them. And guys... Please no flaming. I honestly don't care if you think this band svcks, or that band is worse then this band, or if you don't listen to this you're an idiot. Lets just keep it to posting our favorite bands and an example of why it is your favorite band.

A few examples of bands that I really like-

Favourite. Thing. Ever.

I would have to say Coheed and Cambria is my favorite band. I love how complex their songs are, and how they tell a very good story.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9nZzeQVHcI - The Trammps

My Holy Trinity of music:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmwpzyLI74U - In the Colors. Impossible to pick a favourite, but that one is amazing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gu4M4CWVILk - Zero-Sum.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKT1P7x_Pzo - Where Did You Sleep Last Night?

To me, these three bands/artists sum up absolute perfection in music.

Sorta off topic, sorry. Is it strange that when I see threads about music in these forums, I only recognize two or three bands?

Guess I should put something in here though...

Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody. I believe everyone can relate to this song somehow. (Not posting a link because I'm lazy and I'm positive everyone has heard it about 30 million times. :hehe: )

Alot more, but i have to think a bit.

Hey, if you like Eluveitie, you might like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOHe-0V41sI too.

Aside from System of a Down, Scars on Broadway, Rage Against the Machine, Billy Talent and the likes, I also enjoy

Two bands I can't stop listening to lately:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--qchR-XI3o. Makes me all warm and cozy inside

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcMHkvEVgVo. I still haven't figured out whether this is a joke or not.. either way they're awesome

Top bands, Opeth probably are number 1, but the rest move around all the time

i love Celeste, killer band, good choice

die antwoord, on the other hand......

no it's not. thats why I wanted to post this, so everyone could find different bands. I find it annoying that I listen to all the same bands for years. If I can't incorporate at least one new band in my library after a couple years, then I start becoming bored. Or until the bands I like put out a really good album!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abVdgbV6f14 I aint the best christian but i am
here is a really unknown but good band http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AR2wJ_2Xd_Q

lol. Yeah I'm aware they're pretty terrible. I love them though for some strange reason.. maybe it's just a phase

If we are talking about bands that play musical instruments then my top three are:

Sublime
Social distortion
Dropkick murphys

If we are talking music in general then Bone Thugs~N~ Harmony and Wu-Tang get added to the list

Matthew Good, hands down is my mostest favourite musician.

After that, it's Kings of Leon, Tegan and Sara, and Modest Mouse.

Good list, I'm going to a Social D concert in May when they come here

Bad Religion- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sS4IVlmOKVw (this is my favorite band ever)
Street dogs- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNjyWtGrxC0 (Mike McColgan is the original singer for Dropkick Murphy's and is now the singer for Street Dogs)
and
Flogging Molly- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP-UwvGclDI

My favourite band, favourite song, and favourite version of the song - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAjX0noOUNM

Heh, I like that one too. They're actually a lot like Rise Against, and I read somewhere that Rise Against was one of their influences, so perhaps that's why I enjoy their stuff too.

That's actually backwards, Bad Religion was one of Rise Against 's influences.
