Hiya everyone! I'm Mai, from sunny old England (*heavy sarcasm*). I'm 25 and a big fan of all things ROCK!! (Please tell me Fall Out Boy aren't considered rock here... )

I'm a big fan of:


Trivium
Five Finger Death Punch
Godsmack
Disturbed
Evanescence
Slipknot
Stone Sour
Killswitch Engage
Machine Head
System Of A Down
Linkin Park (Meteora and Hybrid Theory)
Papa Roach
Velvet Revolver
Seether


So not many really...

awsome taste in music. btw Knightfall is crazy about trivium. like i mean obsessed.

one thing me and Phil will have to work on is your intrest in TOOL. other than that your set

indeed, well, Tool would be a great start. I have QUITE a few others as well haha

right E.I.R. & TST....

Dog Fashion Disco, Unexpect, RATM, Audioslave, Puscifer, The Haunted, Protest the Hero, Bleed the Sky, Diecast, August Burns Red, Lamb of God, etc., etc. If you want a pretty large list you can go to the What Bands Do You Listen To? thread Still far from comprehensive

overrated by the populace at large, overbashed by the metalheads. they just can't win haha.

They aren't just "over" bashed by metalheads, ya know.

I'm not sure I know what you mean

me neither,explain?

Yeah, I like several songs alot, and i've always liked As My Guitar Gently Weeps, but overall, just not the love i have for the latter two albums. My fave songs are:

Slavery \m/
Smothered
Forgotten
New Disease (first song I heard and i was hoooked)
Synthetic

Don't worry, I won't be raving about FOB hahaha. My brother-in-law was drummer in a band with the lead singer though before he joined FOB. He has some funny stories with him haha.

Great choices, babe! I really can't say myself which are my favourites, but I worship the anger that is in Dead To Me (Self-Destructive Pattern)!

And wow! Your brother-in-law? I bet it's amazing knowing someone as famous as Patrick Stump (Yes I know FOB's names, but not by choice ).

Knightfall wrote:

Ah yes, we're big on welcoming the new members and I agree completely about FOB, they're also very overrated.

Well, thanks anyway. It's not everyday that I hear "I love you" on my taste in music.

And yes they are. I'm sick of seeing them every time I turn on Kerrang! and Scuzz. They're meant to be ROCK channels.

Thank you, babe. It's great to know I'm no longer alone in my love of rock music.

And I guessed as much when Knightfall told me off on my forum for not starting a Trivium thread.

I'm not a huge fan of Audioslave, RATM and Lamb Of God, but I do like a few of their songs. I'm currently being introduced to Protest the Hero, who I do like so far, and Unexpect, who I don't really like but I'm sticking it out for a bit, but I really haven't heard of the others before. That's why I'm here, to broaden my taste in rock music. I only really know the more well-known bands at the minute, but I've already got three new albums from coming here and meeting all of you, so thanks.

Yeah, I love how he says: "Breaking DOWN, SELF- DESTRUCTIVE PATTERN!" in the song

My brother-in-law really never brings it up, unless the conversation triggers some story haha. Like when he told me the story of how they both ran through Burger King from opposite sides in just their boxers during the middle of the day hahaha.


Audioslave and RAGE are amazing. I didn't like them at first, but Chris Cornell is just an amazing vocalist and Timmy C (bass) and Morello (guitar, duh) are flippin' incredible together. You should give them another chance, you may like some of their stuff. Protest the Hero is incredible. If you like them, check out also The Syncope Threshold (link in my signature, listen to exodus). Unexpect is bizzarely amazing. It's nothing like most bands and the female vocalist is incredible.

Oh you actually mean the song Self-Destructive Pattern. I was talking about Dead To Me on the same album. But I love that bit too. My neighbours, however, hate it....I don't know why though....

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! I'll never look at the guy the same again. You've just made Fall Out Boy quite interesting, thanks, babe!

I'm currently going through everything I've got in my library (which is far too much to be normal...my ears are already bleeding ), and RATM and Audioslave are amongst the lot. My taste in rock music is forever changing, and I already liked a few of their songs, so we'll see if I like any more...

As for TST, I'm waiting to get that but my brother pinched my new credit card (I've only had it two weeks and he's already going mad )...

Oh, I agree about Unexpected. From what I've heard so far, I don't deny they're talented and that singer is definitely amazing, but I didn't really like them. But I always give bands a chance, so as soon as I can, I'll be getting a few songs to listen to properly; FULL VOLUME!!! Couldn't do it on YouTube because my processor doesn't like me...

Ahh, haha. Yeah I guess I missed the first bit and just saw the parenthetical haha. Love the hate-filled ending to Dead to Me, though.

Glad to be of assistance, haha.

I have quite a large library as well, would take me almost a month to get through it haha. 9700 songs, 50 GB, 27.3 Days, 550 artists, 1000 Albums, 40 genres.

My favorite Audioslave songs:

Show Me How To Live
Shadow On The Sun
I Am The Highway
The Curse

Favorite RATM songs:

Know Your Enemy (Feat. Maynard from TOOL!)
Wake Up (how he screams it at the end is sooo impassioned)
Down Rodeo
Sleep Now In The Fire

As for TST, didja listen to Exodus on their Myspace? And if so, how did you like it?

It's cool, not everyone can get into a band like Unexpect. Maybe later on you'll like it. Just keep trying to expand your musical tastes. We can't all like everything at once. I'm still trying to get into all music (an impossible task, but my quest haha)

thats a pretty big libary phil no bombtrack,killing in the name or bull on parade on your list?for shame

That's what she said

bombtrack's great. Killing in the Name is overrated. Bulls on Parade is catchy, but everyone knows it anyway.

bombtracks there best song (in my opinian)

KITN is overrated,yet still good
and BOP is awesome

I only put 4 songs, so it's hard to include all the good ones The whole self-titled CD is bloody brilliant. KITN isn't worth mentioning in a best of, since it's highly repetitive, though still well constructed. BOP is too well known to be one i'd feel needs suggesting.

*raises hand* I know! He means that they aren't OVERbashed, that they deserve every bit of bashing the receive

Yeah, the only thing you've mentioned about taste in music that I disagree with is not liking Unexpect. And FOB is ACTUALLY played on those?! it must be worse than I thought...
