omg lol ........theres not much on it is there ?

btw can i state now before it gets out of hand that i am not gay or do i like rick wallers music lol:loopy:

If you looked closely,

it states the site will be up and running by tomorrow.

No one suggested you were gay,
I remember the most quality thread ever was posted by you though- although it didn't last long. :D

I dunno Linkin Park are quite good but I wouldn't class them totally as metal - a bit of agrey area too with Cypress Hill.

I have to say I am into Evanescence at the moment but I wouldn't rank them up there because of other bands on offer - anyone remember Machine Head and White Zombie *sniff*

Moon

Are machinehead not still around? :confused:

I remember seeing in Manchester at the University was great fun. IIRC One Minute Silence were also supporting them who are also excellent live.

Cypress Hill are a hip hop group but some of the recent stuff has been rock e.g. Bones Disc from Skull & Bones album. Saw them live at Eminem gig in Milton Keynes last summer - they were definitely the highlight of it for me - absolutely amazing, played most of the old classics - basically the Black Sunday album :D :D :D

2. Guns N Roses
3. Metallica
3. The Almighty
4. Iron Maiden

Honorable mentions:

Aerosmith (old stuff)
Whitesnake

Wow, this is going to be difficult as there are so many decent bands out there. I'll have a stab at it anyway.

Metallica
System of a Down
Fear factory
Rage Against the Machine
Sepultura (when max was up front)

More of a heavy rock top 5 than a metal top 5

1 Judas Priest - great live
2. Thin Lizzy - ditto RIP Phil Lynott
3. Scorpions - The finest european rockers around
4. Whitesnake
5. Saxon

1. Queen

2. Metallica

3. The Darkness

4. Iron Maiden

5. AC/DC

In no particular order

No one has mentioned the Foo Fighters!

1. deftones
2. one minute silence
3. senser
4. faith no more
5. metallica (but not the black album period!)

1. AC/DC
2. Scorpions
3. Judas Priest
4. Saxon
5. UFO (with Michael Schenker)

not sure that metal is the best way to describe but some bands that i am into rite now are:

Ackercocke
Hatebreed
Chimaira
Otep
Superjoint ritual

can think of loads more though!!
Iron Maiden have gotta be the best gig i have ever been to though thinking about it, even better than ackercocke!

I only like Nu-Metal/pop crossover, so here's mine:

Limp Bizkit
Sum 41
Linkin Park
Blink 182
The Hives

can someone please explain what is meant by metal these days as I am slightly confused by mention of Linkin park, etc. in the real heavy metal days it was lead guitar influenced rock bands such as AC/DC, Maiden, UFO, Rainbow, Priest, Whitesnake, Scorpions, Saxon and the like. also, isn't Blink 182 a skateboard punk band?

how dare you slag off Saxon (Barnsley's finest) and then list some obscure punk band. shame on you. Dallas 1pm and Hungry Years are as good as anything by the bands you mention.

arent saxon mulletmans fave band?? they wre on tv, the sog sounded like a rip off of twisted sister (even though it was before then), complete with the "JUST LET ME ROCK......ROCK!!!". very cheesy, but i have nothing agaisnt them, and avenged sevenfold are very metal

why has no one mentioned tool !!!!!!!!

System of a down
Linkin Park
Pearl Jam
Creed
Metallica
