What OTHER Bands Do You Love or Like? Options

[LiveFan92]

I've noticed in the ED vs TGF threads that some of us seem to have wildly different tastes in music, which is actually really cool.

I'm curious how everyone here would answer the following questions:

1) Between the examples we've heard of Ed's new music and the examples we've heard of TGF, which type of music is more your style?

2) What OTHER bands do you love/like?

3) WHY and WHEN did you gravitate to Live's music?

I think it would be really interesting to see the trends these answers would probably show.

Unfortunately, I figure it would take about 4 posts before someone was mocking someone else's reply or bitching about Ed or claiming TGF is evil or whatever.

But if that kind of crap didn't happen, and we all answered, don't you think there would be some noticeable trends? I sure do.

1) TGF. Even though I'm interested in the EK stuff and I'll probably dig some songs, so far TGF has shown more promise, more edge and a more distinctive sound as Live always did for me. Both lyric as songwise.

2) Taste in music is diverse, alternative rock, (heavy) metal, hardcore, metalcore, indie, progressive.. if it's good music, it's good music to me. It can be from a catchy riff to a thought provoking lyric.

Some bands:
Muse, Iron Maiden, Papa Roach, Aereogramme, Foo Fighters, Bush, Incubus, Pearl Jam, Deftones, Slayer, Queens of the stone age, alter bridge, intwine, godsmack, bullet for my valentine, disturbed, mastodon, face tomorrow, korn, inme, oceansize, thursday, life of agony, beatsteaks, led zeppelin, blood red shoes, seether, e.town concrete, hatebreed.

3) 1999, I was rediscovering music and was totally amazed when I heard TDTH. hooked ever since. even more after seeing them in concert in 2001 for the first time.
