Mine would have to be Linkin Park. Their lyrics are basically my thoughts and feeling put into words. They have some great talent and Chester is one of the best vocalists ever.

Too bad their lyrics pretty much attack your faith in every aspect. Lol, that doesn' t stop me from listening to them too though.

I don' t think I have a favorite band.
My " favorite band" will change over time and depends on what I feel like listening to.
Linkin Park is always a good listen.
Lately I' ve been listening to a lot of Boy sets fire, Cold, and Endo

Yea there tends to be a theme for people who like video games tend to like the same music haha

Oh something you guys should check out is a band called The Black Mages
If you like the music in final fantasy they are a must get/listen
Nobuo Uematsu (the guy who composed all the FF music) formed a rock band where he plays keyboards and the band puts a rock twist on the FF music
It' s really good.

Also like listening to some orchestra stuff. I' ve been listening to the Lord of the rings soundtrack.

I don' t really have a favorite band as I listen to pretty much all kinds of music. Right now my favorite artists are AC/DC, Disturbed, Godsmack, Kanye West, Twista, and that Trilleville and Lil Scrappy. It' ll probably be a whole new list by next month...just the way that I am.

Well my all time favorite band is The Cranberries.

I know Gamerweb used to have some " Cran Fans" but it seems like its harder and harder to find anyone who likes them, or realizes they are still making music.

Sure they last couple of CDs have been overlooked by American audiences but that does not mean they dont still create some excellent music. The latest " Wake Up And Smell The Coffee" (Oct. 3rd 2001) is definitely the worst of their 5 albums, its still better then most band' s 5th album.

5? Are you shocked!? Well, here they are:

1. Everbody Else Is Doing It So Why Cant We? (Feb. 22, 1993)
2. No Need To Argue (Sept. 27, 1994)
3. Ode To The Faithfully Departed (Apr. 29, 1996)
4. Bury The Hatchet (Apr. 19, 1999)
5. Wake Up & Smell The Coffee (Oct. 3rd 1999)

Bury The Hatchet was a great album. It did get some radio play in the summer of ' 99 but not much. A lack of marketing by their record label left them pretty much passed-over because of their almost 4 year absence. They finished up their record contract with a Greatest Hits album called " Stars" which is a good buy for anyone who wants a cut of the best songs from the 2 newer albums and the old radio hits.

Dido is pretty good too. She has her own style and right now im listening to her while I await the 6th Cranberries album due out this fall sometime. I also like Richard Ashcroft.

Totally different (from the rest of you) and ecclectic tasstes over here. I cannot choose a favourite group, but I am definitely on a huge Ska kick right now - reviving some of my old " reel Big Fish" discs, some " Five Iron frenzy" and the like. Music to get you going through the day.

Cool, Five Iron Frenzy. I' m always surprised when people mention them since for the longest time it felt like I was the only one (at least in my area) who knew who they were.

I was dismayed to hear that they were breaking up, since I never got the chance to see them live. Why oh why did they never come to Canada? They even had a song about the place!

Linkin Park are Cool, there first album rocked, but at the moment my Favourite band would have to be Avril Lavigne...I mean they have some great Music...and you really should listen to there first album, I loved all the songs on it, Like Linkin Park' s first album, there were no bad songs, and the Lyrics are based on Avril' ' s Life, where she grew up, her first Job, here first crush, it' s lovely, you really should get her DVD, it' s got the Videos to all her Singles, a Full Concert in Buffalo NY, and a 45 minute Documentry on the Concert and her tours, worth every dollar, well pound for me...you also get a bonus audio cd with the dvd featuring live performances of some of her songs including Fuel at the MTV ICON Metallica Tribute..., looking forward to the New album in May...

Some of her Live Music Performances

I' m With You

Nobody' s Fool

The song Fuel by Metallica sucked when they did it, and it only sucked harder when she did it. I' m not trying to be mean, but they' ve did a lot more songs that are 100% better than that.

I' ve decided that I' m pretty much done with Linkin Park if they continue down the path they are going down right now. I' ve really outgrown my " teen angst" period of life, and these bands that just continiously play those types of songs are starting to really get on my nerves.
