Favourite band of all time

**Stewie Skywalker** · 05-16-2008

THE RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS. Love that band to pieces John Frusciante is one of the top 10 guitarists ever, and FLEA IS the best Bass guitarist to live. My next would be either Radiohead or Audioslave, Chris Cornell and Yorke both have amazing voices.

Chris Cornell is one of the best singers around. I loved him in audioslave and on the James Bond theme " You know my name"

He was amazing in the bands first album Audioslave, I wonder what happened in Out of Excile and Revelations though....he kinda went "soft" which is why the band broke....

I don't mind now that Rage Against the Machine is on tour. How i wish i could go to one of their concerts....

Hard to pic a fav band of all time,since i like so many bands,if i have to pick its probably iron maiden,i dont listen to them anymore,but it was the first metal band i really loved.

Tough choice for me because I can't decide between Sonic Syndicate and In Flames.

Audioslave didn't break up because Cornell "went soft." Cornell left for a few reasons; one being personality conflicts, probably with Tom Morello, another because

"Chris was unhappy with the financial arrangement within the group."

Also, Cornell said,

"I was tired of what ended up seeming like political negotiations toward how we were gonna do Audioslave business and getting nowhere with it."

It also didn't help that one of the band members, again probably Tom Morello, rearranged atleast one song on 'Revelations' without Cornell's knowledge.

Guns and Roses. Best. Band. Ever.

No competition.

My favourite band has had an interesting history, it changes every year or 2 as I get bored of the catalogue and voice/sound.

Nirvana, pearl jam, manic street preachers, elliott smith, harvey danger, tool, radiohead, the beatles - they've all been my favourite bands in the past. But at the minute, and for the past year or more, there has only been one band that comes close, and for 5 months, the only band on my mp3 player (mostly because I only listen to music when running, and there's just one band that increases my energy levels like this).

BAD RELIGION!

The passion of the singing and lyrics, just really inspire and thrill me. This is my favourite song atm.

I noticed this yesterday in one of their songs that is quite prescient!

...haze

More a question than a curse
How could hell be any worse?

The flames are stunning
The cameras running
So take warning

But...you say Maynard as the god? Oh yeah, Maynard's awesome, but Justin Chanchellor is the best bassist I know. And Danny Carey is pure genius; for example listen to Ticks and Leeches; he basically composes and melodizes the piece with his drums. Now that's some ****!

If certain people on the forums see what I"m posting, they'll blow this thread up in a second.

Personally, my favorite band is Korn. Not exactly great lyrics, but i love their music.

Dir en grey toured with Korn :3

it was funny actually, the Korn crowd were like 'the **** is goin' on here' o.O , as Kyo launched himself around the stage and scratched his chest til it bled

**Chesser19** · 06-17-2008

I don't really have a favorite band cause I like to many.

Anyways, some of my favorite bands are The Offspring, Linkin Park, Guns N Roses, Faber Drive, The Eagles and I'll probably get bashed for this one but oh well, Fall Out Boy.

**acidhead89** · 06-17-2008

Boyzone, nothing better at a hardcore rave I regularly attend because I'm so badass.

**Womble** · 06-17-2008

OASIS

They are the greatest band ever, I mean people say they are worse than when they started but they aren't people just expcet anoother Wonderwall. When listen to the songs and i mean really properly listen they are as good as ever.

I pretty much grew up listening to Oasis.
