    Arsonists get all the Girls(Battle of the Bulge)
    I Wrestled a Bear Once(chick screamer..scarey but awesome)
    and some old Chiodos...no new shit... I still get pissed thinking about the singer change..


    Oh, and I got bored with these but you may like.

    Story of the Year

    Honestly right now I drift more towards high bass techno and some of the rap/techno crossover stuff...

    Pink Floyd is great. David Gilmour blows my mind away. Such a great guitarist.


    Best solo ever.

    Well you've got Metallica, AC/DC, Eagles, Journey, Red hot chilli peppers, Led Zeppelin, Motorhead, Scorpions, The Doors, Eric Clapton especially his Cream and Derek & the Dominoes stuff when it comes to rock and roll, Megadeth, Dire Straits is also great. Check these out plus other bands mentioned like Nirvana and Guns n Roses.

    BTW stop being such dicks. He's asking for ROCK. Not Death Metal or black metal.
