If it's at #5, it is apparently the least.

Unlife
Woods of Infinity
Wyrd
Lifelover

Destruction
Dimmu Borgir
Kreator
Exodus

Iced Earth
Testament
Electrocute
Turisas
Moonsorrow

***Jeff*** · 12-14-2007, 11:42 AM

David Bowie
Elton John
Eric Clapton
Pink Floyd
The Beatles

Its hard to narrow it down to five, there's a lot more I listen to that I could put in that list.

Kjølen · 12-14-2007, 01:17 PM

I don't listen to a lot of music, so I only have three:

1 - Nightwish
2 - The Offspring
3 - Metallica

However, I listen to a lot of esoteric music, like anime soundtracks, movie soundtracks, and yes, LazyTown soundtracks.

MrWally · 12-14-2007, 04:34 PM

Mika
Apocalyptica
Blackmore's Night
Queen
Led Zeppelin
Pink Floyd
U2
Coldplay
Dave Matthews Band
Fort Minor
The Decemberists
Sufjan Stevens
Styx
Trans-Siberian Orchestra

Can't possibly narrow it down.

TiE23 · 12-14-2007, 07:57 PM

I listen to a lot of compilation albums. So not many "I like this band" things.

*Huge shrug*

#1 - Lynyrd Skynyrd (God damn google search giving me the 'ok')
#2 - AC/DC
#3 - The Rolling Stones
#4 - Muse
#5 - DragonForce (LOL)

*El Sitherino* · 12-14-2007, 09:51 PM

I'm substituting bands as musicians/music group.

1. Bowie
2. Mos Def
3. Misfits
4. ~~Prince~~ MC Chris!
5. Coltrane/Rollins

Honorable Mentions: The Temptations, Charlie Parker, Iggy Pop, Stevie Ray Vaughn. And a few others, but I'd end up just naming every artist who's material I own.

It's a little hard to really put it down to 5. That's leaving out a lot of musicians influential to me, as well as just entertaining.

BongoBob · 12-14-2007, 10:33 PM

Yeah, naming the top 5 is simply impossible, but what I've been listening to lately has been Streetlight Manifest, Coheed and Cambria, David Bowie, Flogging Molly, and Smashing Pumpkins.

MrWally · 12-14-2007, 10:51 PM

Oh wow. How could I forget Streetlight Manifesto and Muse?

JoeDoe 2.0 · 12-14-2007, 11:35 PM

As many here, I could not narrow down the many bands I listen to:

System of a Down
Atreyu
Killswitch Engage
Dragonforce
Nirvana
Firewind
Nine Inch Nails
Three Days Grace
Emigrate

there are many more but these I listen to the most

milo · 12-15-2007, 12:01 AM
