flinton: Down wif coldplay
Coldplay is damned cool!

coldplay is one of the greatest bands in recent time, having total album sales of over 50 million. more like a modern day u2. my fav from the band is 'clocks'. a lot of people prefer 'fix you' and 'yellow'. with the band still having a lot of number 1 hits. to me their best album will be 'a rush of blood to the head'.
love every track on it...

Lately, I've been listening to indie rock group- Imagine Dragons

They are awesome.

it depends on my mood but bands like daughtry,the script,All American rejects,Nickleback and the fray would be good enough for any mood
the fray rocks for me when reading or coding.
I once tried coding while listening to the creed weathered album Omo my head started 'hottin' had to quickly switch to another after taking paraceutamol.
other bands that I like includes 3doors down,boys like girls,theory of a dead man,maroon five, Sara bareilies,avril lavigne,p!nk,switchfoot and coldplay.
sometimes I wish there could be a rock concert here in Lagos .

Breaking Benjamin gives me a headache, no matter when I listen to them.

Ingrid Michelson is just a sweet girl. Listening to her gets me very high.
Re: Do You Like Rock Music? What's Your Favourite Band? by 4C2215131: 8:20pm On Dec 07, 2013
The Rasmus (No Fear),now that's a hit right there. The Katinas,Third Day,Bon Jovi,Scorpions (Always Somewhere),Creed(Time),Saliva,Fuel,Nickleback,Breaking Benjamins (Dear Agony),Staind (Fade),David Cook,Matchbox Twenty e.t.c.

Nice music genre (if you can stomach the Heavy Metal and Death Metal groups). Pay heed to the lyrics though as some of the lyrics of these acts are downright nihilistic with a lot of occult overtones. Shouldn't be a bother if you are the kind that just 'rides the rhythm'.

Is lifehouse actually a metal rock band as such? I would rather listen to Brit's Skunk Anansie as a rock group than lifehouse. I don't know why maybe I am just in love with rock musicians who scream out loud a lot and display some disturbing behaviors in their songs.

Why would you compare them with another band if you haven't listened to their songs? undecided

Their genre is Alternative Rock/Pop Rock.You could place them with other bands such as 3 Doors Down,The Fray,Daughtry grin,Hinder and One Replubic grin

I have all of their albums.I don't know which to recommend to you. undecided

Check out these ones from them: All in,First Time,Come Back Down,Blind,Everything,Whatever it takes,Simon,Sick Cycle Carousel and Breathing.

Yes, I would!I have listened to one of their tracks before and I didn't find it to be my kind of classification of rock music, that I would enjoy.I see rock music from the metal/hard rock perspective.Not those listed in your comment who are more like the romantic songs of the sixties. Bwahaha... You don't have to blame me for that because my view of rock music is just basically from the hard rocks!

It is good to know you have all their albums. However, I would like your recommendation but I just don't like so much soft rock music in those forms, the alternative and the pop rocks.


Thank you.

You are welcome. cool

I think i misunderstood your comment.Thought you meant you didnt love songs with screamo and disturbing behaviors in their videos.smiley grin My bad!

You mentioned you love Creed/ Alter Bridge and Coldplay.I think some of their songs are Alternative Rock/Metal cool.Well,we all can't love all the bands out there!

I listen to all genres of Rock brodamus.It justs depends on my mood,i can't be listening to hard rock/Alternative Metal/hardcore punk while studying or taking a nap.

I've checked out Skunk Anansie band.I didn't know about it.Downloading their top 5 songs now.Kinda love their 'Weak' track already cool.

Bwahaha... You are very funny,dude. Neither do I go gaga for Skunk Anansie. I said that to make you understand my kind of rock genre. However, you might want to listen to SUM 42(Canadian - one of my favorites),Red Hot Chili Peppers, Damned Yankees, Black Sabbath, Bon Jovi, etc.

You guys should just get the whole Imagine Dragons album. It sure rocks.

Hard as I tried, i have no love for Red Hot Chili Peppers. They do not appeal to me at all.

Staind and The Script is also good. A colleague introduced me to indie rock- The Killers, Jack's Mannequin, Feist etc and I have been enjoying them. Ah. . .are there any Muse and Fun. fans in here? Those guys are cool.
Muse have turned rock music into art with the way they fuse all kind of rock genres.

I agree with you that not everybody likes Red Hot Chili Peppers. They are more or less old funk rock group. I think they need to up their style and come up with new tracks despite my love for their music and personalities.

red hot chilli pepper's 'californication' and 'by the way' album are really good. others are funky and rap which sounds so old and gross.
currently using one of their songs 'otherside' as my ringtone from the californication album
