So yeah... Im not terribly crazy about cookie monster sounding vocals. Despite lsiting Killswitch Engage, Otep, Kittie and a few other (near metal) bands, i still only like select songs from them. On the other side of the coin, I like one or two songs from Thievery Corporation....but in general, that band puts me to sleep. Also, not a big fan of siger-songwriter acoustic stuff.

If the band you are recommended is a popular classic rock band that i havent listed (AC/DC, Queen, Slayer, etc) Im familiar with them. Just looking for artists that are unheard of or putting out new things.

WOW that's a long long list :o

I'm actually going to use that list as a source to good music, thanks buddy! :D

Up for some punk rock? Go for Dead Kennedys, Misfits, Bad Religion. They haven't put out a lot of stuff, so you can easily get to their whole discography, but give them a listening on youtube and get to their first albums if you like anything. Nude_Dude

Zune Pass allows unlimited music/downloads. So yeah, i'll check them out. Already familair with Bad Religion (i like them), just forgot about them.

What about... oh wait, that's on your list.

What about... looking... looking... looking... hey, it's not on your list! Weezer. I have contributed. I now feel as though I have accomplished something.

I see Interpol is not on your list. If you don't know them I wholeheartedly recommend checking out at least their 1st album Turn On The Bright Lights; I don't really like the rest of their work but that album is one of my all-time favorites and definitely one of the best to come out the last decade.

On a side note: would you mind listening to music in a foreign language, or does it have to be english?

Forgot to put Interpol in my list! Love the album Antics.

Foreign? Rammstein and Klee are German bands and Sigur Ros is swedish. I'd prefer in english, but im open.

Listen to this too.

stop listening to 3 doors down would be my only suggestion.

Listen to this too.

Liking Fleet Foxes and Deer Hunter a good bit from sampling. Not liking The Tallest Man Alive very much, but thank you for the refreshing suggestions!

Great. :)

Check out a song called Aqui No Es Asi by a band called Caifanes and see if you like it (youtube links are no longer allowed in Glitchspot, it seems).

Im sorry, im hispanic and can speak spanish fluently. So, it never occured to me that spanish is "foreign" to me. So yes, spanish rock is perfectly acceptable. Milka and Ill Nino (from my list) and bands with both spanish and english songs.

Thank you for the suggestions.

Well, it's always safer to assume any given user here would not speak spanish at all, let alone fluently. :P

I'm mexican, by the way.

Oh then you should tottaly listen to Mariachi El Bronx. They are a hardcore punk band that started to play mariachi songs some years ago... and it's tottaly awesome. Look for the song 48 roses :o

Where's the grunge? Sure you have Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Nirvana, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. How about some Screaming Trees, Mad Season, L7, Mudhoney, Melvins or Alice in Chains?

Primus, Henry Rollins and Toadies are also not on the list, if you're feeling real adventurous you could also try Fantomas, especially their Delirium Cordia album. Tom Waits is also a winner, especially if you like alcohol and cigarettes.

I like rock music and the entire spectrum of itXaosII

I'm going to suggest Marillion, specifically the Fish era (which begins with "Script for a Jester's Tear" and ends with "Clutching at Straws"). Some of Fish's solo stuff is quite good, too.

This. If you like any of that, I would also check out punk bands like Black Flag, The adolescents, Ramones, Bad Brains, Lagwagon, Toy Dolls, and the Descendants.

id suggest Hollywood Undead. their American Tragedy album is more rock oriented than their swan songs album.

Glory and Tendencies are the two most rock songs on American tragedy, so thats a good place to start with them.:D
