Simple, nominate a maximum of 8 bands. I havent decided to have 64 or 128 in. Also, im going to see if I can get someone else to run it with me *coughTrentcough*.

Of course, long-standing members and regular posters in the music forum choices will take priority. Pick what you want, band, single artist, composer, you name it.

also: if your choices are obscure, you should be prepared to upload a song or two, or something in which people can get an idea of what they're voting for(or against)

My 8 are:

Primus
The Mars Volta
Dream Theater
The Frames
Portishead
Faith No More
Yoko Kanno
Super Furry Animals

Akon
Green day
My chemical romance
Linkin Park
Robin Williams
tenachis D (is that spelt right?)
Liza menelli
ABBA
Whitney Houstan


may come up with more later and edit this post so check it every now and again Diablo.

Orson
Snow Patrol
The Fratellis
Elvis
Colin Hay
James Brown
The Beatles
Queen


JFTR, can we nominate "older bands", or is it just bands areound at the moment. Also, nominations from all countries or just american ones.

anything you like.

also D: @ Killa 7's choices.

anything you like.

also D: @ Killa 7's choices.

:( why you no like?

* Jazzanova
* Morcheeba
* Tokyo Jihen
* Jamiroquai
* The Underwolves
* The Babys
* Sambo Master
* David Bowie

Iron Maiden
AC/DC
Miyavi
The Black Mages
Jeremy Soule
Steven Lynch
Pink Floyd
Jimi Hendrix Experience

EDIT: Are you going to demand that this is a non spam thread? If not your going to get alot of Rock Vs. Rap shit...

The Unicorns/Islands (I don't if you would want to do them as one or seprately since Islands was spawned from the Unicorns but doesn't contain all the members)
Tegan and Sara
Atmosphere
David Bowie
Elliott Emith
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!
Modest Mouse
Architecture in Helesinki
Mates of State

edit: ok tha's actually nine/ten depending on how you look at it, so I am going to pull Bowie in the expectation that enough people like him that he will nominated by someone else.

edit2: I can upload as needed I suppose as well, people give some shout outs to what you haven't heard if anything.

I will replace my Norah Jones with David Bowie. Someone will nominate Norah anyhoo.

Also, choosing only 8 is killing me. Therefore I have chosen to only pick contemporary artists and not our heroes from the past like Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix or The Beatles.

Whoa lots of good choices already

will add:

The Ramones
be your own PET
The Flaming Lips
Metallica
Squarepusher
PJ Harvey
Bjork
Madonna :D

I'm sure others will add most of the rest of the stuff I'd want in, and others probably would have listed these as well

FAO Rapture - Since I nominate The Flaming Lips will you put Weird Al in for me. If not, someone else that wanted one I said do that plx thx sexpot

Green Day
My Chemical Romance
Tenacious D


Guess what, I'm seconding these, if that's allowed.

And adding:

The Ataris
Our Lady Peace
Fall Out Boy
ALL/Descendents
Less Than Jake ;) C'mon Diablo please :puppydog:

I love LTJ :)

you've ruined the list by including FOB though. get out of my universe.

also, to answer your question Albel, of course there can be discussion.

Gojira
Trivium ...replacement pending.

I know I should have a few non-metal bands, but I can't bring myself to do it.

QUEEN.





ENOUGH SAID.



(teranoid & MC Natsack too)

Queen has already been nominated.

haha

-Spice Girls.
-Cher.
-Depeche Mode.
-Gwen Stefani.
-Hot Hot Heat.
-Snoop Dogg.
-[insert crazy japanese bands/artists that no one cares about]


Yoko Kanno and Bjork were already nominated. Also, if My Chemical Romance gets a spot, fuck you guys, bad enough FoB and Green Day are getting nominated. Then you have Tenacious D which is basically just a bunch of shit written songs designed to make you laugh, hardly a viable group.

Killswitch Engage
Iced Earth
Disturbed
Trivium

These are all good bands, but they haven't brought anything new to their respective genres. It seems a waste to name bands that are just good rather than bands that have really innovated or created new types of music. And I downright detest Trivium.

You may be right, but these bands are great for different reasons.

First of all; none of them have ever made a shitty album.

KsE are an extremely talented band; each one of there songs is moving and awesome!

Iced Earth play very well, and have great vocals. I usually despise covers (with a few exceptions) but listening to the Tribute to the Gods album... they almost made those songs better.

As for Disturbed; each one of their albums has been completely different from the last. David Draimen has a great singing voice (he would do well, even if he wasn't in a metal band, and I would still listen to whatever music he made) and can also pull off those growls he does, and definitely does that different than anyone I have ever heard (most vocalists growls are deeper and... darker).

I like all of Trivium's music, apart from their Metallica covers... they are a great band but I'm actually thinking of replacing them (don't know who with, though).

I would participate but what I listen to would lose~
However,
can we nominate composers?
I might as well nominate 8 bands/stuff because I can

Opeth
Miles Davis
Nile
John Coltrane
Aphex Twin
Brian Eno
Death
Jeff Buckley

can we nominate composers?

i did say you could ~

-Queen
-Radiohead
-Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
-David Bowie
-Leonard Cohen

They are just a few that i pretty much adore.

Also, if My Chemical Romance gets a spot, fuck you guys, bad enough FoB and Green Day are getting nominated. Then you have Tenacious D which is basically just a bunch of shit written songs designed to make you laugh, hardly a viable group.

I thought we agreed that my and The Master's submissions weren't being considered.

I thought we agreed that my and Killa 7's submissions weren't being considered.


:smrt: Fix'd

:smrt: Fix'd

Alright, let me make something clear, Killa. It doesn't matter if you're actually The Master, because YOU ARE THE MASTER. You act exactly the same, even if you are a different person. It's your behavior, not the name that is being addressed.

I was only trying to clean up the mess I made in this thread. I am not going to post in here anymore. If you keep junking it up, it falls on your head.

My sincere apologies to Diablo and Mailbox.

Screeching Weasel
Azure Ray
Flaming Lips
Lawrence Arms
Postal Service
Dredg
Agaisnt Me!
The Lillingtons

Dio
Rainbow
Dokken
Yngwie Malmsteen

Alice Cooper

It'd be easier if my most favourites weren't already nominated.

Also, THE BEATLES!

I know that I've had my 8, but I just want to put down some else just so that I know that he's got a place, and I expect I'll get little complaint for asking that Bob Marley be added to the list.

alright!!! I didn't think you'd do mine, because lack of senoirity...=)

No Weird Al ftl

and there are some others I'd like on there but oh well, there's plenty of music out there, we could always have another go if this is successful enough.

ive edited Weird Al in, he deserves to be in there for lol factor alone :)

Oh happy day! I love the Irish

This is shaping up to be pretty very cool.

As a suggestion, how about you separate rumbles into divisions of genres? It might help things out a little bit.

Oh man, I wished I'd decided to get in on this sooner! Just for kicks I would have chosen:

-The Kinks
-Blur
-Pulp
-The Libertines
-Ben Folds
-Pearl Jam
-The Stone Roses
-The Jam

and yeah. I'm pretty sure some of these might have already been chosen BUT DOESN'T MATTER NOW ANYWAY /cut ;_____;

When is this rumble going to get started?

i second:
Greenday
My Chemical Romance
Fallout Boy

other 8
Anberlin
Coheed and Cambria
Taking Back Sunday
Underoath
Panic! at the Disco
Blue October
Chiodos
Incubus

others!
All American Rejects
Head automatica
& Thursday
