u sure must enjoy easy listening.
cool list, most of it is not rock.
u dig punk/ metal at all?
Sure, I listen to System of a Down and Metallica sometimes. I really like the rap metal of Linkin Park.

Frankloon, you are incredibly awesome!! Sound of settling is fantastic. I'm more obsessed with Marching Bands of Manhattan though.

You really should check them out. They are one of the best alternative bands out there IMO. Their album Transatlanticism is a good place to start.

Foster the people is not rock .
i really love em, but they are categorised as adult alternative /indie pop

Actually me and my friend have had this argument before, i know they are listed as an indie pop band.
But there's a significant amount of indie rock and even a little alternative rock in their songs. Any musician that does any significant form of rock can be referred to as a rock musician.

How many of their songs have you listened to? When did you start listening to them? I'm asking cause if you listened to most of their songs before their fame, you would get my drift.
Lastly, do you know that before their breakout, they were listed as an indie rock band even by MTV.
Next time get your facts right bro. Don't go rushing to quote Wikipedia.
Cheers! wink

Cool, i just got to know about the fray some months back. I love them.
I hope they will explore other sub genres and effect changes in their upcoming album, Most of their songs sound kind of similar.

Kudos to the self appointed biggest rock fan in Nigeria. Your preferences seem to skew to a minimal genre of rock music. Have you tried other genres?

I couldn't help laughing at the common list. It is like some of the famous artistes list than rockers!

I have been listening to some of their tracks. But, what I found about their music is that it's cool and slow. I usually enjoy fast and hard rock with lot of instrumentals. Another thing, I couldn't find any of their recent songs.

This is one of their tracks I enjoy most on YouTube below.

I've heard of them over the years and made a mental note to check them out. I never followed it up.They were once Grammy nominies, huh?

Yeah, you are right! They were nominated twice for Grammy. Beside those they've been one of English most successful indie rock bands.If you like them you would like The Killers as well. My favorite killers track is 'Just Another Girl'.

Seriously, guys, I am not into indie rocks like that because I find them to be too soft for my liking. I usually listen to them when I am traveling - they suit my travelling mood best than hard rocks.

Arctic Monkeys is a good band...They are indie too you know? You just don't like some slow indie bands.
If you are a fan of Arctic Monkeys check Foals and Kasabian out too..they are cool indie bands from the UK just like Arctic Monkeys.

Thanks for the Kasbian and foals but, the band is not so much different from One Republic - both in beat and style. I would dare you try out hard rock. Solid rock on a happy day would take you to heaven. You might want to listen to 'Bullet For My Valentine - Tears Don't Fall'.Dude that is hot and solid rocking. I post the video below for your viewing pleasure.

Yes, i am into The Killers. Been listening to them lately. Indie just recently became my thing. I was formerly into all metal/hard rock but i realized that in the afternoons, i feel 'headache' not metal anything. I find indie a little soothing. No matter the mood, nothing changes my mood for Linking Park tho.

Good! You are very funny by saying you feel headache in the afternoon while listening to solid rocks. However, your type would like 'Five For Fighting' as well.You can remember the movie 'The Blind Side' featuring Sandra Bullock and Quinton Aaron sound track - 'Chances', is one of their music. The video of the track is below for you viewing and listening pleasure.

Gee, thanks. I will look into them immediately.
You are a marvel ,you know. You managed to put two of my favorite things - rock music and Sandra Bullock (i thoroughly enjoyed 'Blind Side') in just a comment.

Lol... You are welcome. I think Sandra Bullock is a very funny lady and somebody with good sense of moving along with everybody.I usually enjoy the way she plays her role in movies. That makes her one of my favorite female actors in Hollywood.

Rock music is in us all, be you rapper, soul-singer and others there is always a thing for you that suits your taste. Bwahaha...
