General Chat / 5 Best Bands?

It would have been 2 minutes if you and I weren't the two last poor souls without any sort of high-speed internet.

Until recently i had 32k
Then I got 56k and then, a month later, we get hooked up to ISDN

...But it doesnt work so im still on 56k. I hate it, god dammit. My computer has also taken up the hobbie of stalling every 10 minutes so technology is fucked up at the mo. Not to mention the fact that my PS2 decides to die in the midst of Soul Calibur 2 for some reason. Grrr... Technolgy!

Venting over!

here is my list! SHORT ONE!!!!

Blink 182, Sum41, Zebrahead, Reel Big Fish, The Matches, No Use For A Name, BigWig, 999, Autopilot off, Rammstein, Sonata Arctica, Edguy, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Alien Ant Farm, BEasty Boys, Creed, Avantasia, SKA-p, NOFX (no-FX), Bad Religion, Murderdolls, BloodHound Gang and many more...

I managed to pick up a 5-cd compilation of some of Flaming Lips' older work.

It is teh sex

Tis better than sex, are teh Flaming Lips.

a list that will probably get more flames than any other so far. but i dont give a ****

5) Vertical Horizon - The older stuff and the new stuff in different ways. The older stuff is perfect for a relaxing mood.
4) Dirty Vegas - Simple things is such a classic track and they are awesome live. The acoustic of "days go by" ghosts, candles and All or Nothing are also all great.
3) The Police - Roxanne, Message in a bottle etc... nuff said
2) Lifehouse - I just like it. dont ask me why. Old album is much better than the new one. Especially "somewhere in between", "breathing" and "Quasimodo"
1) Goo goo dolls - no ones ever heard of them over here really and they have several great albums. From the early punkier stuff ("Million Miles" and "Do You Know What i mean") through the great rock ("falling down" and "cuz your gone") all the way to the newer softer stuff ("iris" and "here is gone")

Also on my list would be
Linkin Park
Paul Van Dyk
Snow Patrol
Rubyhorse
Silvercrush
Third Eye Blind
Travis
Toad The Wet Sprocket
Damien Rice
David Grey
Muse
RHCP
Maroon 5
Keane
Oasis...
God the list could go on and on and on and on and.......

That Third I Blind 'doo-doo-doo' track was cool.

Recently i've been listening to The Mars Volta the most, and David Gray. Apart from Radiohead, that is.

Well it varies, but i'm gonna have to say...(in no order)

1) Coldplay
2) Red Hot Chili Peppers
3) Travis
4) Paloalto
5) Keane

probably...

Iron Maiden
Metallica
Pantera
Motorhead
Judas Priest
