Who's your fav from the list? why? I will go with NIN!!! Trent Reznor just has powerful songs and just  awesome and deep liyrics on every album!

Current takes me out, what will be, will be. Floating on the sea, stars are watching me.

I can't stand Linkin Park. I did not vote because all of the above were terrible bands.

I like:
All-American Rejects
Relient K
30 Seconds to Mars
Plain White T's
3EB
Sum 41
Butch Walker
The BLC (Black List Club)
Flyleaf
...to name a few.  8)

Most of those aren't rock bands. I still voted for linkin park, even if their new single sucks.

Well, my favorite out of that list is The Fray, so I voted for them.

Death?

None of the above, really. My favorites are Hole, Evanescence (not their latest), Nirvana, Maroon 5 (do they count?), and/or Sleater-Kinney.

I read everywhere that we'd better not count on a video for the new single  :(

Capital G is actually my least fave of the album... And I kinda really like survivalism (though everyone said it was kinda bad  :? )... lol

I would have prefered The greater good as a second single...  :razz:

I know, it's really crazy.  I've liked them for a few years now and it just seems really strange that they're so big.  I'm actually going to see them headline at Darien Lake on Sunday.  It's crazy that they're headlining such a big venue.  I'm proud of them, but at the same time, I always kinda hate when bands get so big... mostly because they play such huge shows and I prefer the intimate setting.

So yeah, I voted for The Fray, though I don't know that they should be on that list.

I'm curious to know how you initially heard about them. I mean for me they were a local band and really popular on the scene.. they've been circulating on local radio for a few years now. But you live in NY? How'd you discover them?

And ya I do agree it sucks we can't go see them play for a tiny crowd in a tiny record store or anything anymore.

Guns n Roses.

I don't like any of the bands on this list, although NIN do have a few good songs.
