    Hey, I've just been listening to lots of music lately. I'm wondering who your favorite artists are and what types of music you like :)

    Personally, I love rock but there is also some rap I am into.

    Top five favorite musical artists:
    1. Linkin Park (this band sounds awesome live!)
    2. Metallica
    3. Jay-Z (this guy is awesome with Linkin Park!)
    4. Muse
    5. Rise Against

    Top five songs:
    1. Bleed it Out - Linkin Park
    2. The Day That Never Comes - Metallica
    3. New Born - Muse
    4. The Unforgiven III - Metallica
    5. Dirt Off Your Shoulder / Lying From You - Jay-Z & Linkin Park

    Anyway, I'd just like to see how many people will participate and if there are any people who like the same type of music as me. Please use the poll above - I'd like to see how many votes we can get and for which genres.

    Feel free to post your top 5 artists/bands and songs as well. :)

    Thanks for posting :)

    Anyone else wanna share their favorite bands/songs?

    Also, I should've added metal to the poll. Sorry, at the time those genres were the only ones I could think of :p

    Yeah sorry about forgetting about some of the other genres of music in the poll. I thought of metal right after I had already started the thread.

    Does anyone know if there is a way to add poll options?

    Lots of those bands are my favorite bands as well. I LOVE some of Shinedowns songs. 45 and Second Chance are awesome songs ;)

    You have terrible taste in music istopmotion. I didn't know that there were people who actually listen to Linkin Park and Metallica, it's just not possible (like trying to combine water and oil)...
    Here's My Top Five Artists:

    1. Celine Dion
    2. Rick Astley
    3. Snoop Dogg
    4. 2Pac
    5. Notorious BIG

    I kind of agree. I hate rap too though, but you picked good rap, unlike that trash shit people try to call music like Soulja Boy etc.

    Your list is probably the best one on here. Congrats for liking real good music.

    EDIT: Im gonna go check out your band now.

    DOUBLE EDIT: Pretty good, although i am not a fan of the screaming. Sound quality could be better. Not bad, which member are you?

    Obviously the first two are a joke but yes, I only listen to old school rap. Soulja Boy is sh!t, so is Fiddy and Jay Z. TI is kinda cool though, especially his early stuff...
