    Good and Popular is a very uncommon combination.

    Good luck.

    Well... Alot of it gets old but a few are still good to the proper ear

    Bring me the Horizon
    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
    Chelsea Grin
    Alice in Chains(old, but good)

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

    No offense but melechesh despite having the name of a band that I would normally like is just... I don't know how to describe it.. Messy? Not the good kinda messy but the harmony you were speaking of is absent to my ears. There was no instrumental harmony either, idk what to say I'm amazed at myself on this one. They just really don't sound right to me, maybe it's crappy purcussion?

    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.
