Top 10 Rock Bands Ever? (metal, punk, pearl jam, Radiohead, classic)

Cheese · 04-06-2006, 09:31 PM

In no particular order
1. Black Sabbath
2. Deep Purple
3. Iron Maiden
4. Judas Priest
5. Michael Schenker Group
6. Jethro Tull
7. Danzig
8. The Alan Parsons Project
9. Concrete Blonde
10. Blue Oyster Cult.

And if anyone thinks that's a sh*te selection, it's their problem. No one's going to convince me otherwise or make me endure another DT dirge.

Sigh...

First of all, Transatlantic aren't prog-metal, and I wouldn't exactly call LTE entirely prog-metal.

Secondly, and most importantly, you accuse me of having a lack of interest in other music styles, saying you made a "point." The sad thing though, boo bear, is that you misinterpreted "top 10" for "every single band I have interest in.”

Nice try in bringing down my credibility though.

Moreover, most of those prog-metal bands are extremely distinct. Adagio are more about mixing classical and prog-metal, Nevermore and Evergrey are a different breed of prog-metal entirely, etc, etc.

And lastly, saying you only listen to LTE because of Tony Levin is a grade A example of being close-minded; something you accuse me of frequently.

Sometimes I get really sick of pwning because it's all I ever do.

Sigh...

Either way its a band you only listen to because it has a member of Dream Theater in it, right?

Ok, name all the other music (aka prog metal) artists that you like.

Oh, its much too late for that.

Prog metal is distinct in a way, but compared to all the music thats out there, its a very limited term...And the fact that you refuse to expand your musical tastes further is a sign of your lack of musical interest.

Well i apologise for Levin being one of my favorite bassists, and for not wanting to listen to the band for Petrucci's superlong wankfests...The band would suck ass without Levin.

Now heres the part when you say.

We would be here all day. Just admit your evil judgmental ways and I'll be happy.

Wtf? Refused to do what now? I've already told you I listen to a wide range of rock, it just so happens that once my exploring was over, I haven't found anything better than prog-metal. If I "refused to take my musical tastes elsewhere" then why did I start listening to rock in the first place? Initially I was only into classical.

Apology not accepted...suck without Levin? rofl. He had nothing to do with any of the compositions, it was all Petrucci and Rudess. Levin could have been replaced with any bassist, but having him in just made it cooler and all super-goupey.

Hes one of the few bassists skilled enough to keep up with Petrucci's and Ruddess's overstuffed wankery and do it without sounding or seeming tasteless, like any good bassist he keeps the rhythm, without Levin LTE would be nothing but one whole big mess...Just like Dream Theater.

Punk is lame to me. My favourite punk-revival band is The Living End.

Let me translate this for you:

"Hi, everyone, I'm booey. I have too much pride to tell you that I love LTE because of how much I hate DT. But the truth is, I just love Levin (because he's in one of my favourite *** prog bands), and LTE don't have LaBrie, so this made me listen to them. And then I released how much I really appreciate DT now but I don't wanna seem like a tremendous hypocrite. So I'll continue to say DT suck and just say that LTE suck too if it wasn't for Levin, even though there are n bassists (where n approaches infinity) that could have fulfilled his part in LTE just as well."

I know this was rather far-fetched....boo boo can't construct sentences this well.

And name me some bassists that could fill Levins role, and do it just like he can.
