Gun_Knight

Im looking for some really good catchy songs, but of course what does everyone else listen to as well that plays NS. When you add a band, put whats your favorite song from them if ya wanna have people listen to that song to try out the band.

<u>I listen to and love:</u>

Franz Ferdinand - This fire, No you girls, list goes on......
Aqua Bats
Against Me
Socalled - "You are never alone" & "these are the good old days" (hes a hip hop-ish in style but sounds.....strangely good)

First of all, <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/index.php?showtopic=109211&hl=music" target="_blank">http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/in...11&hl=music</a>
Slightly different format, but the idea is the same.

I like quite a bit of the music you listed in your post, but let me add a couple others:

Nightwish (gothic rock?)
Dream Theater (progressive metal) - A Change Of Seasons (warning: 20+ minutes)
Cake
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Joe Satriani (crazy guitar skills)





possibly my favorite Nightwish song right now...

I 2nd Nightwish. (edit: and Satriani too, this guy is just too awesome)

I'd also recommend K.M.F.D.M (industrial rock) with songs like "Bait & Switch" "Free your Hate" or "Not in my Name" if you want to get your blood pumping before killing Skulkies.

Ahhh CAKE, I like the lyrics of some of the song, still trying the others

I second Dream Theater.



Here are a few others

Therion -To Mega Therion
Apocalyptica - Hope (Cello metal!)
Amorphis - Skyforger
Epica - Kingdom of Heaven

+1 Apocalyptica. I saw them live before I'd heard any of their music (friend had extra tickets) and fell in love. Epica is also good
