Your Top 10 Favorite Bands

  • July 19, 2017 10:14 PM EDT

    While on Youtube earlier today, I was binge watching a bunch of Top Ten videos, and I know they are terrible, but they are a guilty pleasure of mine. I strumbled across a lot of Top 10 Best Metal Bands, Top Ten Best Saxophone Songs, and more. So while reading through the current Fallout event build I began to think about how diverse the songs, and I got the idea of making this thread. So without further ado here is my list:

    1. Motorhead
    2. KISS
    3. Iron Maiden
    4. Black Sabbath
    5. Led Zeppelin
    6. Judas Priest
    7. Blue Oyster Cult
    8. Deep Purple
    9. Daft Punk
    10. The Clash

    I don't think I even have a favourite genre of music, let alone 10 bands that I can identify. I'll listen to pretty much everything as long as it doesn't have screaming in it, and probably not classical or opera.

    1. Led Zeppelin

    2. Black Sabbath

    3. Hozier

    6. Lynyrd Skynyrd

    7. Guns n Roses

    8. Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Band

    9. Queen

    10. Bad Company

    This was far too difficult

    Everyone's listing their rock bands and stuff while I quietly listen to DJ Khaled and Little Mix XD

    @Rogue there is not an awful band on that list, and I know it is hard because it was for me.

    @Zonnon I hate classical music with a passion, mainly because since I was seven I took piano lessons. Hey, I like Hip-Hop, just not the kind most would enjoy. :)

    What types? I've been really getting back into Run the Jewels recently, and of course as I'm British I have to listen to Stormzy, are they what you're talking about? I'm trying to think of obscure rap stuff but I guess its obscure for a reason!

    I listen to Ill Bill, Necro, La Coka Nostra, AOTP, Vinnie Paz, Immortal Technique, Apathy, Celph Titled, and some more like them. I also have a guilty pleasure of listening to CL, Kieth Ape, and other J-Hop and K-Hop as well.

    Mine would be:

    1) Little Mix

    2) Fifth Harmony

    3) The Vamps

    4) One Direction xD

    5) Linkon Park

    6) Rolling Stones

     

    And yeah they are the only bands I have ever listened to really.

    And yes I am a 22 year old guy, don't judge me on the first 4 they are the only pop bands I really know xD

    Yeah I'm a Pop/House/Classical music kind of guy.

    I don't think I even have enough bands to make it a Top 10. I listen to any type of music as long as it isn't screamo (I'll make an exception on Treyarch's music) or K-pop (I can never understand that genre). I also enjoy to listening to classical somewhat. My main bands I rock out to are Coldplay, Linkin Park, Rudimental, and some indie bands.

    What classical composers do you like?

    I guess it would be Beethoven with Moonlight Sonata and Fur Elise being frequent on my playlist.

    I can play all of the Moonlight Sonata and Fur Elise - all of the movements of the former as well :D
    Also I can play Fantasie Impromptu, you might know it.

    I love piano playing. I think I may be slightly obsessed

    @Blacklight, I really can't judge people for what kind of music they like because someone else can do it to me, but I will give you credit for being a guy and liking Pop.

    @Kaiser I can't stand Screamo either, but there a few I do kind of like. I use to like Classical, but not anymore.

    You know about Vinnie Paz?! Whoa, I thought he was as obscure as it gets but I guess not. Honestly I stopped listening to them a few years ago, but Vinnie especially I can appreciate purely for the beat and music, it sounds badass.

    Awesome! I never get why people hate on people for liking stuff, you can't control it and if its harmless why bother? Plus Little Mix is insanely catchy. Have you heard Power? Its one of theres but Stormzy is in it as well ,who I definitely recommend people check out if they like rap. He's a grime artist from London who's done as much good with his newfound fame as someone can, proper decent lad.

    Wow, someone else knows about Vinnie. Yes, I do but only because he is one of Davey's favorite rappers. That is also how I know a lot of Backpack/Underground Rappers as well, too.

    Sounds like you know more than me then, Vinnie and Necro were as far as I went in that direction, and I think I remember something about Pharoahs or Mummys as well? I've got cursory knowledge of quite a few things but thats basically me knowing some names and one song. Know any grime?

    Yeah, I can go farther and are you thinking of Army of the Pharaohs? It had Paz, Self Titled, Apathy, and some more. I know of Grime, but I don't know Grime.

    Thats it yeah, I've been trying to remember that for ages. To be fair only British teenagers really know the ins and outs of Grime right now, its only really been put on the map recently with Stormzy's new album but its growing really fast.
