View Full Version : Favourite Band

What is the name of your favourite band and what are your thoughts on them? In this thread, not only must you name your favourite band, but you must make a comment on one of their albums.
Band:
My favourite band are Muse. I think they are really good and the leader singer (Matt) has a really good sounding voice. I like their rock/indy style of music and the variety of moods they have in their songs. My personal favourite is Plug in Baby as it has a really great guitar intro which continues on through the whole song along with a really catchy drum beat.
Album:
Absolution has to be Muse's 3rd best album. Although it's the most modern and I like the songs on it more, my two favourite songs are on the other two albums (Showbiz and Origin of Symmetry). Some of Absolution's most impressive songs are Hysteria, Time is Running Out, Thoughts of a Dying Athiest and Endlessly. I hope that Muse continue to release albums and singles that match their current standards.

<span style='color:violet'>hMmM favorite band? right now i would have to say moi dix mois. mana writes such beautiful music and it is different from anything i have ever heard before. i really admired mana's work in malice mizer and i love how he has a way of blending the organ,guitar,violin, and harpsichords together...its just amazing
seeing as they are a new band they only have one album "dix infernal" and its a really great album...there isnt a song on there that i dont like. i think it sounds kinda like mana had intended malice mizer to sound but with moi dix mois the members are more his style and i think they will be very successful (or at least i hope) </span>

You do the same thing. Are you trying to pick a fight? It's ok, whatever. My favorite band right now is Tsunami Bomb because their music is catchy.

No, it's just pointless posting something like that. But that's the end of it, don't post reply to it because an argument will start.
Any other favourite bands anyone?

It would be the London Symphony Orchastra. Not really a band, yet it is.
BlackMage
April 7th, 2004, 01:26 pm
Yeah I suppose an orchestra is a band, not exactly a very rocky or punk one, but a band.

April 8th, 2004, 09:47 am
I say the Boston Pops Orchestera is more of a band than the London Symphony Orchestra.
BlackMage

Actually, the band is a band if they say they are a band. It's wierd, but it's the way it goes.

A band is a group of people who play music together, right?
My favorites are Radiohead, Greenday, Linkin Park, Good Charlotte, Eagles, Apologenix, and POD.
BlackMage
April 10th, 2004, 03:53 pm
Yes but it can vary, it dosn't have to be a group of people, it can be only two, eg. The White Stripes. Anyway, nice choice there Sondagger! I love Greenday and Radiohead. Do you like Muse?
Sondagger

Cool, if you visit www.muse.mu (http://www.muse.mu) you can go to media, then videos to see and here some songs. The best three in the featured list are: Plug in Baby, Hysteria and Time is Running Out, video-wise.

forget wut i said before..
that was when i was young and naive...
after extensive listening i have learned that compared to the beatles the other bands are rubbish....
1) beatles
a far 2nd) pixies
even further 3rd) pearl jam
and mabe just put the 3 solo artists from beatles(lennon, mcartney, harrison) before the pixies... putting the pixies in 5th place...

Jay ChouI remember during visit in Taiwan a couple years back the song "Long Quan" was playing absolutely everywhere ><"
lol, drove me nuts that song that song..
.. and then I became a fan XD
Luna Sea - just wow, their way is addictive! I preferred the earlier stuff slightly more.. but all in all they shone brilliantly from beginning to end ^^
Dir en grey - Devilish, dangerous, dark, exciting -- enough said -- their use of harmonic discomfort has brought me to levels of chaos and corruption I have never felt.. just perfect, wonderful experience :devil: oh not to mention the visuals XD
Malice Mizer - Gothic, romantic, and gothic.. love how they use so many instruments in addition to the usual ^^ soothes your mind with their one-of-a-kind style
Asher
