Interest in different bands

You could try AC/DC, Guns N' Roses, Velvet Revolver, The Ramones, Alice Cooper, Led Zeppelin...

ummmmm.... I don't see The Who in there... I HIGHLY reconmend them if you want a second band to be interested in. Espeacially listen to, "Tommy!"

Hi which band do you ythink I should be interested in?
Here's my list
Nirvana
The Darkness
Status Quo
Guns N' Roses
The Clash
The Sex Pistols

From your list I like The Clash. :o)
But I don't like telling other people what to listen to, so you shall be spared my recommendations...

Guns n' Roses/Darkness. (Wish the darkness would bring another album out, i'm so sick of listening to same stuff).

Evanescence is a new band, and is for sure better than the average rock band that we listen on the radio, although mainly because the quality of music these days is very poor, so is no wonder why Evanescence stands out above the rest.
One thing for sure is that Evanescence is a band that needs to mature, but you can't blame them for that because they have only released one album. I give them the props for writing their own material and working so hard to make it big. I've listened to some of their material that wasn't included on their 'Fallen' album, and some of it is even better than the stuff on the album itself. Only time will tell whether Evanescence will rise or sink, but they sure are a promising act.

I'll have to agree on the fact that bands like Muse and Franz Ferdinand deserve as much or perhaps even more recognition than Evanescence. But then again people shouldn't complain about Evanescence when we have silly pop acts like Jessica and sis Ashley Simpson, as well as awful rappers like 50 Cent taking over the whole mainstream and getting a lot more airplay and publicity than rock bands that truly have talent.

One thing I can tell you for sure is that Evanescence is far more original than The Darkness.

i really like nirvana and the clash. a lot of people seem to hate nirvana, but whatever. i like the darkness, too.
personally, i think evanescence sucks ass.
and i like george michael a lot, too!

Now when it comes to recommending music, I can tell for sure what you're looking for. But from the great variety of genres we have I'll go with these.

I really love The Gathering. However, Nigthtime Birds is not my favourite album. I prever Mandylion, Black Light District or their latest masterpiece: Souvenirs

I'm going to see them in concert in my town on october 10th. It'll be the 3th time I see them :)

I agree with you willem-jan, Nighttime Birds is not my favourite album too but, you know, I thought it would have been the most suitable choice to approach to their music... It's much easier to listen to and there are quite a lot of melodic passages... Don't you agree?

I like Mandylion and Souvenirs a lot... Especially the first one. I'm happy anyway that there is somebody who knows them and likes their way of makin' music...

What about the other part of my reply? Since you know the Gathering, do you agree with me that 10 years ago there already were many bands playing the same things as Evanescence in a far better way?

Tell me how the concert you are going to see was like, OK?

Nice to meet you

:-)

Albyboy

yes, listen to Bob Marley
Metallica, Led Zeppeling

and again, George Michael

I like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Santana, David Bowie, Yes, Bread, The Beatles and Jimi Hendrix

I'm kinda close-minded about most music. My two favorites are obviously Queen and the Beatles. I rarely listen to anything else. I probably should listen to some other stuff. One of my friends got me a Pink Floyd CD for my birthday last year, and I haven't listened to it yet. I'll put it on my iPod, and I'll get around to it... eventually.

I really like Simon & Garfunkel, Elton John, and (a little) Jefferson Airplane (pretty much just White Rabbit and Somebody to Love).
