Post your personal top three bands/artists of all time, or just at the moment, haha my top three changes from week to week, so here's mine...

The Mars Volta
Radiohead
Muse

The three bands mentioned above are all unbelievable musicians, incredibly unique and creative, and they strive to push the boundaries of their chosen genrre

tool: if for nothing else the artwork they use (and for anyone that likes the mars volta you should listen to tool they are similar)

hendrix: he's just really good

full service: a relatively small band that is technically from ct but plays in texas (or so i've heard). the frontman is an old teacher of mine and they are similar to 311, but have a very unique sound

David Bowie
Ben Folds
Sufjan Stevens

Because music would not be the same nor the future of music be complete without them

^agreed, tool are far more experimental with time signatures and irregular meters, the mars volta experiment more with effects and sound manipulation

Nirvana, The Beatles would be in my top bands of all time along with Mars Volta and Radiohead.

Queens of the Stone Age, Bloc Party, BIlly Talent, and Modest Mouse would be in there somewhere too along with Controller Controller.

not in any particular order

1. Symphony X. So talented in every area. Great singer, awesome guitar, and their bass is kick ass.

2. Joe Satriani. I love his stuff. It's just soooo intense with his guitar. I recommend it for anybody.

3. Led Zeppelin. Classic rock at its finest.

Rise Against - inspirational lyrics coupled with melodic guitars and a hardcore punch in the bass and drums. fantastical punk rock

SOJA - reggae with a message. lots of melody and background vocs. guitars overlayed on lots of the tracks sound almost latin, but they retain the rasta-vibe sound

The Ataris - awesome variety of sound, from emo as shit, to social commentary, to party songs. earlier stuff is the epidomy of "basement show pop punk"
