True, Slipknot is a good band and I enjoy thier music, but in my Opinion, Metallica, Pantera and Sepultura, I think their the best bands, can't decide on one.

Boy, have I lost touch. I'm a music teacher, but it's been a couple of years since I left my job. The kids used to bring their tapes in for us to hear. Now--I'm still living in the past! You didn't mention a single group my students liked. Of course, when you're working with students you hear a lot of bubble gum music. You are more mature than that.

I still go with Nine Inch Nails. Trent Reznor is amazing.

Funny that you mention Slipknot...One of my really good friends actually grew up with Cory from Slipknot. Of course, I still haven't met him, but Chad tells me that Cory comes in to town sometimes to see him. Small world I guess.

NIN is awesome- Trent is God


I like a lot of the new bands surfacing. Haven't heard much of Slipknots stuff, but like what I have heard. My fave at the moment (NIN aside of course
) is Disturbed- anyone else a fan?. I like Linkin Park but I've worn the CD out, listened to it toooooo much. I'll be glad when they come out with a new one. Tool is great- the Enema CD rocks.

I'm so glad that there are lots of 'alternative' bands out there- theres nothing worse than being stuck listening to Top 40 boy bands or- GULP- Country (that should be a four letter word)


Anyone like Alien Ant Farm or Saliva?

Nickelback and Default Dont Suck-I think they are the Best bands to Come out of Canada...Nickelback and Default are by far better than NIN.

Default is okay. And Nickelback has their moments. But I think NIN is a much better band solely based on the one fact that they have an original style of music. Does anyone else find that most new bands coming out now all sound similar?? I guess it's a new genre, or something like that.
To answer krazy kat2: I love Social Distortion! They're pretty good.

You know I have noticed these new bands are all sounding the same..... I never really gave it much thought until now. Like Defult sounds a lot like Creed and half the time I didn't realize that Defult was a band I thought their song was a Creed song.

Better than NIN?? Saying that is just plain sacreligious
NIN set the world up for this new stuff- listen to Pretty Hate Machine. I'll say it again- Trent Reznor is god


Btw, Scott, I saw Puddle of Mudd in the list under your signature- big thumbs up there
LOVE the song Control. Blurry is good too, when I'm feeling more mellow

I have never liked NIN, I like the Heavier Stuff, Like Pantera and Sepultura. Sepultura has Unique Music. So does Metallica. I'm not saying that NIN are a bad band, but I personally don't like them. The only music i listen to is the Really heavy stuff. NIN is heavy, But not as much so a Sepultura. Sepultura and Metallica are way better than any other bands out there in my opinion.

Scott, I have never heard anything by SlipKnot, but I heard recently that one of them is living in Des Moines, Iowa now. (Just threw that in)

NIN isn't a "them", NIN is a "him"

Most of the new mainstream does sound the same or at least you can match up two or three bands with one another. Not that I don't like them or anything and I even own a few CD's. I've been leaning more toward the electronic lately. And of course 80's new wave and early 90's alt.

Thats what makes NIN so phenomenal, IMO. A lot of people say they don't necessarily like NIN's music but they can appreciate the fact that Trent is an immensely talented man. And, of course people like Marilyn Manson wouldn't be where they were without Trent- hes brought a lot to the music world. Long live the king
