What is everybody's favorite bands to listen to? I just want to know because all I ever listen to is Dave Matthews Band, and I want an opinion on something new

Personally, I like (in no particular order) Nirvana, Tool, Metallica, Black Sabbath, System of a Down, Megadeth, Slayer, Marilyn Manson, etc.

I also have a HUGE library of video game tunes too though.  I can provide a list of my favorite titles if you are into that.

I like a lot of stuff but my favourite band of all time is probably Led Zeppelin.  I don't think I've ever heard a bad Zeppelin song.  Their boxed set is essentially a four disc greatest hits.

Other artists I really like include U2, R.E.M., Bryan Adams, Nirvana, The Police, and The Doors.  My favourite acts are usually bands that have an original sound and have music that sounds real as if they actually enjoy what they're doing instead of just releasing songs based on market trends with money being the only objective.  A lot of stuff today is just so blatantly manufactured it makes me sick.  Of course this isn't a rule and there are some manufactured songs that I like.  There's tons of flash-in-the-pan pop songs from the 80s that I like.  It's mostly the current N*Sync crap I hate.

My favorite band of all time is easily Pain. I'm sure none of you have heard of Pain, but anyone who's seen the Jabberjaw music video on Cartoon Network has heard their music. My second favorite band is easily At the Drive-In, which I owe my love of to 3_Masterpiece. My third favorite band is The Beatles, followed by The Ataris and Queen. My favorite song, however, is I Woke Up In A Car, by Something Corporate. That song is followed very closely by Pain's Full Speed Ahead.

1. Pain
2. At the Drive-In
3. The Beatles
4. The Ataris
5. Queen

Yeah, i guess i also listen to REM, OAR, Bela fleck, Phish, and other bands that write their own music. I mostly listn to acoustic guitar. that's my favorite. I don't listen to hevy metal, rock, or anything of the punk sort, like garage bands.

The Beatles!  Yes Mouse Clicker, I should hand over my Canadian citizenship or something for not mentioning The Beatles...  Everyone's favorite stoner band...

EDIT:  CCR, Dr. Hook, and Jefferson Airplane also deserve mention.

Less Than Jake tops my list. New album May 20th!!!! I'm stoked, I ordered the collector's set that includes a making of DVD, trading cards, and a T-Shirt. Plus it's all autographed!

Everclear and Don't Look Down are pretty high on my list of favorite bands too. I just picked up Everclear's new CD "Slow Motion Daydream" yesterday and I'm really digging it.

I've listened to many of the bands that y'all have posted, and I still think Dave reigns supreme. You all should go out and buy some DMB CDs. I recommend buying Before These Crowded Streets or Live At Luther.

i like classical music the best. and jack johnson is the shiznat. i like mostly punk bands....but more of the popish punk. a lot of the bands mentioned here are way too "hard core" for me. although system is pretty good i think.

Less than Jake are great , I cant wait for some new stuff. Also  - good respect for the Beatles. I think my favorite band at the mo' is Save Ferris! Nothin' too heavy for me, Eagles, letters to cleo, and you've got to give it up for Michael Jackson. And I'm also proud to admit theres something about Avril that just does it for me.

I've listened to Dave Mathews and it was vomit inducing.  I cannot stand the music, the singing, or Dave himself for that matter.  It is only my opinion of course, so take it for what its worth.

Vomit Inducing? I've listened to punk and hard core stuff like slayer and almost died. DAVE OWNS THE MUSIC INDUSTRY. That's all I have to say.
