Which one of these bands are you a big fan of?
- Thread starter Martinski
- Start date
Yup. I recently picked up their first 2 on vinyl and yeah these are both great albums. Will always regret not seeing them tour during this era. I used to watch the concert DVD from their show in Toronto.
As for the topic it's Maroon 5. They've got some inoffensive bops, and I never really understood the hate they got.
Yeah, Parachutes is a masterpiece. Their most recent album, Everyday Life, is great as well. Doesn't sound like the same band that made Mylo Xyloto and Head Full of Dreams.
Not a super fan but I like Slipknot. Some of the stuff they do with percussion is pretty cool. The first three albums were all highly enjoyable for me with Iowa as a standout both as being part of their catalog and for getting music closer to the "extreme" edge on to mainstream radio.
Then they kind of just became whatever but there latest album is pretty decent and feels closer to the older stuff.

Not a fan of any of them but if I had to choose it'd be Slipknot. I went to high school with a few of them.
Slipknot, though I'm not a huge fan. I have a greatest hits comp, their demo from before Corey joined and their last album.
Why would it not be? If there is a thing i am serious about, it is music.
Is... is this a joke? Aren't these widely considered to be terrible? If you're just judging on similar music, then I guess I'd have to hold my nose and pick Nickelback. Slipknot is too loud and angry and the others are too whiny and sappy and just not for me.
Slipknot is the only band on there that isn't horrendous garbage so that's an easy answer.
edit: my bad, I meant Thunder.
Literally, no exaggeration or hyperbole, the worst mainstream music song I have ever heard in my 30+ years on this planet.

Slipknot is the least awful by a long shot, but they have a lot of awful on their resume. Train is the most inoffensively bad, which is part of their whole problem to begin with, but I guess they come second.
I don't know, there's a good argument for Thunder.
God Imagine Dragons are the fucking worst.

I rescind my comment. I actually meant Thunder. Absolutely the worst song I've ever heard.
Slipknot easily, pretty damn good band and Iowa is a true classic. Corey is a cool dude as well.
NIckelback. Been a fan of theirs since high school. Slipknot is my second choice, and honestly they tend to make better music, but the heart wants what the heart wants.
Oh you're right, I didn't check. I was just going by my past impression of each band. I think I got them mixed up with someone else.
These are bands teens were listening to when I was in my twenties/thirties so my exposure to them is kind of minimal. I can't say I'm a big fan of what I have heard of any of them.
Hot take: Mylo Xyloto is one of their best albums
Paradise is hot garbage though and I skip it every time I listen to that album. Nothing of value is lost.
Deep fried chicken
Anyway I like some songs of Train and Maroon 5. Fan of any of these? Nope
Honestly, Imagine Dragons is the only one of these I'd switch off if I heard them on the radio. The rest are fine. I wouldn't call myself a fan of any of them, but at least the others all have a song or two I like.
None of the Above or Thor 2 should have been an option lol
If I had to pick one, I guess Slipknot? Out of all of the lead singers, it's only one with a decent voice, even if he's screaming some of the time.

I would rather listen to silence than any of these bands. Slipknot is okay, but not my thing, and the others are truly some trash tier bands. Liking these is a banned from the aux chord level offense.

Same, and then I would probably only find a song or two that I'd want to listen to more than once.
