icey Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Dixie Chicks Alison Krauss & Union Station / Robert Plant and Alison Krauss Lee Ann Womack Trisha Yearwood (these are all country people ) Madonna Rihanna Sheryl Crow Dido (okay her first two albums were kinda boring but her third one was amazing and poetic in my opinion) Lady Gaga (eh kinda... I couldn't think of anyone else to put) ... Yeah I'm stuck, I can't think of 10. But hmm, not much of a rock person and I'm probably like, the only person here that likes country . I also like classical too but I didn't know if I should include it in a favourite bands list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 KISS + Solo Michael Jackson David Bowie Queen + Freddie Mercury's solo work Iron Maiden Dio Sigh Scorpions Black Sabbath KickAxe/Stan Bush/Modern Talking/something In no particular order.

BEST TRYNDAMERE PLAYER Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 My favorite genres are basically most types of rock, alternative, and techno/trance. As for artists...let's see, this is in no specific order: System of a Down Staind Metallica Skillet Disturbed Armin Van Buuren Paul Oakenfold Paul Van Dyke Tiesto Dirty Vegas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No favourite genre, either (though it may seem like I like rock the best from this list). Crap... I totally screwed over the Scorpions. They probably deserve a spot in my top 10, but I have no idea who I'd knock out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icon of Sin Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 (edited) Mostly metal, ranging from black to death to avant-garde to old school to goregrind to folk and more. Among the few bands I could list as some of my favorites are Sigh, Emperor, Zyklon, Korpiklaani, Dio, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Slayer, Venom, Mayhem, Immortal, Carcass, Carnage, Voivod, uneXpect and Dethklok (including Dr. Rockzo the Rock and Roll Clown of course). The rest of what I listen to is pretty varied, usually either alternative or comedic. Add a bit of electro, a pinch of rap and some video game music, and that's roughly what I listen to.

And personally, I think all those groups are all terrible. Zyklon Zyklon-B is far superior. Edited August 19, 2010 by Mochiguman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophius Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 (edited) I am admonished of the fact that you did not include the genre of classical music in your poll, which is every bit and more prevalent to each of the named genres. It also happens to be my preferance when listening to music. Here are my favorite compositions. Symphony #9 in D-minor -Beethoven Mass in B-minor -Bach Requiem Aternam -Mozart Symphony 7 - Allegretto -Beethoven Tocatta and Fugue -Bach Symphony 1 in C-major -Beethoven Romance for the Violin and Orchestra -Beethoven Serenade" Eine klein Nachtmusik" -Mozart Symphony 5 in C-minor -Beethoven Symphony 40 in G-minor -Mozart EDIT: it is g-minor. Thank you for correcting me Icey. Edited August 19, 2010 by Sophius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Mozart's Symph 40 is in G minor though ;). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 None of those are metal. And personally, I think all those groups are all terrible. Metallica is thrash metal. But I agree, I don't like any of those bands either. he also didn't include generic rock. There's no such genre as generic rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luftwaffe Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Metallica is thrash metal. They used to be a good thrash band, but now I don't know what the hell they play. Whatever it is, it's definitely not metal. Metallica or aas i lay dying, neither qualify as metal to you? That's great. As I Lay Dying isn't metal. Screaming and noise into a microphone isn't metal. Hurling a bucket of paint at a wall isn't art. When will people realise this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 My music went from stuff out of video games to random indie artist (I mean REALLY random). Some still write; others don't. Either way, it's up to you to find them. In no particular order. . . AKITO Silvia (non-vocal works only) SHIKI Junk void (I am not responsible for any mental trauma that is incurred if you find this artist's page) Mystinia kurena keyc cranky taqumi (I don't understand why I like this artist) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freohr Datia Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 (edited) As for genres, a tiny bit of classical rock, metal, a bit of punk/punk rock... and other. But other includes some that probably aren't "official" genres. Screamo is an official genre. Christian screamo? Probably not, but that probably just goes with screamo. My brother often mentions "mosh" genre, but I'm not sure I've seen that actually used. Think that's all of them. As for favorite bands.... Probably won't end up in order of favoritism. Just what comes up in mind for me. 1. Underoath 2. The Devil Wears Prada 3. Secret & Whisper 4. The Almost 5. Pierce the Veil 6. Emarosa 7. Chiodos EDIT: changes her mind 8. Blessthefall 9. To Speak of Wolves 10. Isles & Glaciers (too bad they were only making that one cd) The one that couldn't make the ten Bullet For My Valentine =( Why couldn't it be top 11?
