are there no prog-rock fans here? no votes for Dream Theater or Rush? even Yes?

you really cant beat prog-rock for "smart" music; its lyrically solid(most of the time :-P), musically complex(with actual MUSIC as oposed to looped beats and such), and has some of the absolutly most tallented players EVER.

Dream theater is some amazing stuff...they are a great band.

If you want speed metal my vote goes for Fear Factory. They are sick........

Fear factory is one of my favorites. I saw em in concert and it was the best show I have ever been to. It's a damn shame that they just recently broke up. They produced great music for 10 years and never got popular...R.I.P Fear factory

[ol jeb]

The DOORS, Pink Floyd, and Led Zepplin definitely. These three bands probably inspired most music today. IMHO

i have to weigh in on the electronic scene today also. i have been to many concerts/shows in my time and nothing beats a room full of people you don't know, treating you like their best friend and jumping around....just feeling the energy. WOW...i need to go get down tonight!


oh and always remember "drugs are bad". now i will have to take those from you and dispose properly.

Best metal band: Testament (they gave all they could bleed...and more)
Best punk band: Strung Out (talk about radio suicide)
Best ska band: Sublime (every day I love them just a little bit more)
Best rockabilly band: The Living End (roll on...)

But my all time favourite goes to Unwritten Law from San Diego.

The greatest band ever is the Kottonmouth Kings. No other band is as good as them
