The Official Rock Thread

[Kaz Vicious]

Accepting all sort of rock music discussion other than emo, because music was created to bring happiness and enjoyment, not to make us slit our wrist, therefore emo music discussion will be taken in another thread, definetly not this one.

You are allowed to argue whether a band is good or not, but verbal abuse is not acceptable. It's rude.

Hilary Duff, Avril Lavigne and bands like Busted, are not rock.

So, post your bands!

I'd like a definition of Rock.

Because really, I'm not that good at classifying music into genres. I mean, I know what rock is to an extent, but where do you draw the line?  

[ethuil]

when people like Good Charlotte and Simple plan go from being poppy to 'goth' in one album...is NOT rock  

[nrasjaa]

rock is real s**t like nervana and pearl jam and nickleback and green day. im not talkin about prissy "oooo we wear skinny jeans and too much eye liner and listen to avril lavene!! we're so rock!!" im talkin the real s**t linkin park, three doors down, ACDC, metallica the real stuff 3nodding  

[ethuil]

Rock...real rock comes in many forms...
The best, in my humble and not necessarily correct opinion, are the following:
The Cure, HIM, Freak Kitchen, Lacuna Coil, Rammstein, My Chemical Romance, Aiden, Zeromancer...  

[Ozumou]

80's classic Oz Pub rock forever....

e.g. Hunteres and Collectors...  

[Fairy Luna Nocturna]

*Scans her Huge CD collection...*

I put forwards these bands to be my personal fave Rock bands:

HIM
Nightwish
Metallica
Lacuna Coil
Rob Zombie
Paradise Lost
Type O Negative
WigWan
Nine Inch Nails

And I could just keep going and going and going....  

[ethuil]

I forgot Within Temtpation, Nightwish, Leaves Eyes and Arch Enemy!

I'm always afraid to post my favourite bands in case someone flames me down as a musical-n00b for not knowing what genre they're in...

Am currently putting all my 300 CDs on i-tunes.

[DNA_Guru]

Out of the 2500 songs I have on my computer I'd say around 85% of it's rock. All random musicians and some I follow with a great passion

I'll list a few anyway;

Bad Religion
The Butterfly Effect
Shihad
Dream Theater
Muse
The Mars Volta
Glasshouse
Karnivool
Metallica
Audioslave
Rage Against the Machine
Megadeth
Rush
Santana
Stratovarius.

Buggerit that'll do. XD
