Zeppelin

Best Led Zeppelin album. Period.

It is hard rocking, consistent, and has two of Zeppelin's best: Achilles Last Stand and Tea For One.

Stale.

Skid Row in general

Avril's new album

It's so easy (when sung by my friend Matt) Edit:No wait ANY GnR song sung by Matt

Lacuna Coil in general

MCR in general

All the filler Kiss songs I end up listening to at Matt's house

Weight Of The World- Evanescence

Piano Man- Billy Joel

What If God Was One Of us-Joan Osborne

Kelly Osborne in general

The Beatles-other then the five songs I like

Britney Spears in general

Rap in general

Most country

Paramore in general

Hilary Duff in general

but the worst ever would probably be......um.......

....

Yankee Doodle Dandy.

Piano Man owns your musical tastes.

Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough - Michael Jackson. I think I dance more than I drive when that one comes on.

I hate that Gym Class Heroes use the "Take A Look At My Girlfriend" part in their Cupid In A Chokehold or whatever it is, I've seen lots of people going "they're excellent lyrics"

and I'm like DUDE IT'S SUPERTRAMP!!

No fucker in my whole goddamn shit hole town seems to know its a cover

I loved the original; now its ruined!

xDSGx

How is it ruined?

Besides, it's only the chorus. It's not a complete cover even. That being said, when the best sounding part of your song is lifted from a classic, then you suck. It's one thing to take a certain beat or rhythm and twist it into your own kind of song, but taking a chorus and inserting it into your own song is just awkward.

Supertramp owns all.

Haven't seen them yet, but I am going on 9/12. I really cannot wait.

When one of your albums sells over 104 million copies worldwide, your career is never fully ruined. He can sleep with boys and own monkeys all he wants, but a shitload of people will be awaiting his new album.

'Homecoming' is better for me, too.

eyehategod, crowbar, and morbid angel. all three are killer bands.

At least I can agree with you here for the most part. Crowbar is great.

Down

Kreator

Sodom

Kyuss

Savatage

Darkseed

Rainbow (A lot of people know about them, but really don't give them a huge chance.)

Venom

Marillion

Eddie Money

That's awesome.

Load and Reload aren't awful albums by any stretch. They're just different from what everyone expected. If Metallica had combined the best songs from each album and made it one, it would be 10 times better than TBA.

i totally agree, i'd take both those albums before st.anger, metallica needed a change, they were heading in the right direction, then st.anger came along.

Exactly. They were heading in a good direction. I mean, No Leaf Clover (written for S&M), was one of the best songs Metallica had written in years. Then the band had tons of problems and St. Anger was something they needed to get out. I'm glad they released it, so now they can focus on putting out a great record.

It's interesting how when you hear the unreleased St. Anger demos, they sound a lot like TBA, but then the final product sounds nothing like it. Obviously, they wanted to change the sound of the album before it came out.

and

the greatness of

MR. GONE SOLO himself....

DIAMOND DAVE!

theres so many :

Accept, Armored Saint, Autograph, Black N' Blue, Britny Fox, Cacophony, Euff z Nuff, Exciter, Faster Pussycat, Kix, Keel, King Kobra, Krokus, Leatherwolf, Loudness, Yngwie Malmsteen, Manowar, Metal Church, Nitro, Ozzy, Queensryche, early Pantera, Pretty Boy Floyd, Racer X, Slaughter, Stryper, Trixter, Vinnie Vincent Invasion, Vixen

as well as thrash metal bands like: Annihilator, Kreator, Dark Angel, Death Angel, Exodus, Testament, Morbid Angel, Overkill.

and all the NWOBHM bans like: Angel Witch, Diamond Head, Saxon, Raven, Blitzkrieg etc.

The 80s fucking ruled!!!

Awesome job recognizing Kreator. Along with Sodom, they are two of the best thrash bands. Both are still making good music too.

I'm going to take this time to say:

Era Vulgaris > Songs For The Deaf.

Yeah, I know that'll be unpopular, but after many listens, EV just has superior songs. I'm not taking anything away from SFTD either. It's a damn good album too.

I'm impressed you can pick a favorite...they're pretty consistent!

I'd say with confidence that Lullabies is my least favorite...but then again "Someone's In The Wolf" is my favorite song of theirs.

Have you heard their first (out of print) self-titled album?

They played Sick Sick Sick, Into The Hollow, Misfit Love, Battery Acid, Makeit Witchu and 3's & 7's from EV and Do It Again, Go With The Flow, Song for the Dead and No One Knows from SFTD.

I gotta say it was rather lame to only get a 60 minute headlining set...but Josh had knee surgery on Wednesday so I guess he gets a free pass this time.

No, I haven't heard it actually.

It's disappointing that they didn't play I'm Designer off of EV, though. I think that's one of my favourites for sure.

Restricted this to strictly musical terms:

Personally, I think she made some good pop songs with her first couple of albums.

I thought "Complicated" was a well written song and was particularly ironic because of certain people I knew at my school whom would sing along to it and be a personification of what the song was against. Almost like a trojan horse heh.

I now thoroughly think she has had it and will not be able to interest me with anything music-related again.

Yay, someone who can talk about the music without spazzing out. To be honest, I agree with what you say. Although, having heard her entire first album, 'Complicated' is probably the least interesting song on it for me. She wrote some pretty decent songs on that album, especially 'Mobile' which really took me by surprise as to how well written it was.

I also agree with her "having it" but now it has, indeed, drifted away a little. After hearing a couple songs from her newest effort, it just doesn't go together well.

Everything.

Undoubtedly his voice has changed, but that doesn't mean he doesn't "have it" anymore. He's still in better shape than a guy like Axl, if you ask me.

A couple vids from recent years (i've posted one of them before):

Back In Black - Live in 2005

Black Dog - From a reunion tour with Geordie in 2001

Whole Lotta Rosie - With some random band a few weeks ago

I mean... listen to that performance of Back In Black and tell me he still doesn't "have it". He completely nails the song. I'll agree that his voice has changed - but so has the style of music. The band's pursued a bluesier sound on their two most recent albums. It didn't work at all on Ballbreaker, but Stiff Upper Lip was a great album. His voice suited the style they were playing.

Exactly. Highvoltage is just trying to explain that Brian hasn't "lost" his voice. He still has great vocal strength, but yes, it has changed.

Either way, Brian Johnson is nowhere near losing his voice.

It's supposed to be deliberate.

And there's your answer, folks.

Don't shit your thongs.

It's a tie. They both lose.

Bryan Adams owns.

Radiohead > Muse.

On The Nickel by Tom Waits

Beautiful.

My top 5:

Freebird - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Welcome Home - Coheed And Cambria (Say whatever you want, trading 4's in a prog rock band is damn cool)

Closer To The Heart - Rush

Home Sweet Home - Motley Crue

King In Crimson - Bruce Dickinson

Fucking right, King in Crimson is a beast of a song. Bruce Dickinson owns on that album.

Their cover of Cortez the Killer by Neil Young is pretty good.

I haven't heard much else.
