I wasn't too much of a fan till I saw them live (twice!) and they actually slay. Great band!

Rush. Love the 70s and 80s eras especially, but it's like having several favorite bands to choose from! If I'm in the mood for synths I'll put on Signals, or if I want something heavier I'll play the self-titled album. I literally never get sick of their songs though.

Cocteau Twins.

Saw them recently in Glasgow. Absolutely fantastic.

Of all time, it would have to be Nirvana. No other band has impacted me as emotionally. Nevermind came out when I was 13 and it was the first CD I ever owned. I was deep in the teenage angst stage when In Utero landed, which was rather apt. Then I had a cassette I tapped off of MTV with unplugged on one side and Live and Loud on the other which I played all the time until he died. It was hard to listen toto after that, but then they released unplugged on CD which is still a favourite.

Of course there's countless other bands I love, bands that are way more technically proficient, bands that use electronics and stage craft. I've an eclectic taste and Nirvana are certainly more mainstream and successful than most of what I listen to these days, but if I could go back in time and watch any band live it would be them.

It's so hard to choose one but I'd say Blind Guardian. If you love fantasy novels then you'll enjoy their songs. They cover LOTR, WoT, SA, The Witcher, and so many more. They've had consistently good albums and are always refining their sound, they've even released a full progressive symphonic album based on the pulp novels of Solomon Kane.

No they don't!

Muse.

I could listen to any song, any album, anytime.

Sound Tribe Sector 9 (STS9)

Those are great. I especially like Marcin's flamenco stylings.

You might also enjoy AFØNK

The Weeks or Against Me!

Love me some funk as well, so I checked them out.

They're good. thanks for the recommendation. In return I recommend Tom MacGuire and the Brassholes.

I will check them out!

I only got into Rush as an adult, but I spent probably 1-2 years listening to almost nothing but Rush. Hemispheres definitely came out my favorite in the end, but I really enjoy most of it ( Though I could take-or-leave some of their later stuff, especially Presto which is just produced weird and tinny.)

Chris bowes is a racist sex-offender though...

Insomnium

I thought I had overcome my SOAD addiction but it came back a few hours ago

Aww, I still remember singing along to Radio/Video with my daughter when she was two.

She'll be graduating college in May. 💀

The Mars Volta

John Coltrane

Jpegmafia

Today Is The Day

Nice!

Black Sabbath

Cocteau Twins is the morning music at my house.

Check this out...Zakk Wylde did a thing.

Zakk Sabbath

All them Witches and King Buffalo are no slouch either.

(King Gizzard has no right to be as amazing as they are at every single music genre.pick one.. It's insane how good they are.)

Have you heard the stuff that Fripp and Eno did together? "Heavenly Music Corporation". It's heavy.

Overall ... Misery Index

By Genre

Death Metal - Dying Fetus/Misery Index

Grindcore -Pig Destroyer/Rotten Sound/Napalm Death

Post - Storm of Light

Stoner/Desert -Lowrider/Kyuss/Dozer

Brant Bjork - that man is his own genre.

Did I do okay?

I can't wait for DeathFest this year!

I was just reading Contact by Carl Sagan. It's all about bands. Small world.

I read this exact comment 10 years ago

When I'm in a mood, Stars of the Lid

No. There's a whole lot of Fripp outside of KC that I really haven't even dipped my toes into.
Maybe I will give this a listen.

There is another band similar to kglw that is called doom gong that is local to the midwest of the united states which does some pretty cool stuff too

Brian fucking Eno

While yr at it check out Eno, if you haven't.

Also, have you seen the movie Mandy? It has a lot of KC.

Seen it live, good times

Holy shit how was it‽ Is his voice that similar to Ozzy live?

Make that 20 or maybe even 30. What can i say? I'm old. I still enjoy discovering new stuff though.

Thoughts on Scars on Broadway?

My friend was my introduction to Opeth and also fell out of love with them around that time.

His new passion band is Castle Rat, he's absolutely convinced they are the next big thing.

He's also very excited about us going to see Owlbear in April.

Maybe you will like them too

Thanks, I’ll check them both out!

@Jarix @NOT_RICK Castle Rat is fantastic.

I saw them in Vancouver last year too.

I think she's perfect on the new music but her singing the old stuff just isn't there yet.

Which is fair, she will improve on that but I think she just needs more of her own music before she will get a fair response from the crowd. Which is just a matter of time so this isn't even a complaint

Artist not band specifically: Chris Cornell

Did you get some wires crossed here? After looking it up HMC is electronic music by a guy named Kim Cascone. The group you seem to reference is simply Fripp & Eno.

I'm going to check out both anyway, so thanks!

GY!BE

Heavenly Music Corporation is the album.

Also No Pussyfooting

I mean, it's great, but it's basically Black Label Sabbath, if you've heard 'The Wizard' cover on the Pride & Glory album it should give you a good estimate.

I've always liked U2, Coldplay and Genesis, but I also love Barenaked Ladies, The East Pointers, Great Big Sea. More recently, Bear's Den, Sons of the East, Amble, Kingfishr, and The Scratch. Just seen Amble last night and they're incredible live.

Also enjoying KNEECAP, and Chasing Abbey.

I know, but I don't dwelve in celebrities personal lifes. Otherwise I wouldn't have anything to listen to or any movies to watch. Money and fame makes most people assholes..

Parents with good music taste lead to kids graduating college B)

Congratulations for her achievement!
