Entre_Perpetuo Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Have we done this before? I don't recall, but I think it'd be really cool to actually get everyone's top 5's out into the open for once. I'm curious to see many of them myself! Here's mine: Queen (favorite album A Night At The Opera)Rush (favorite album A Farewell To Kings)Muse (favorite album The Resistance)Genesis (favorite album Foxtrot)David Bowie (favorite album The Rise And Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyBlaze Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I foresee many twenty-way ties for the #1 and #5 spots with an added “It hurt to leave out ((a list of thirty other bands))” comment. :P 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the time it took me to type this his top 5 changed 12 times. Edited November 20, 2018 by J2112YYZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyBlaze Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 For me it comes down to who I can listen to any day, any time, and in what ever mood I’m in. These 5 fit that: RushPink FloydBob Marley & The Wailers ((yes, this is a BAND and not a solo artist))Led Zeppelin R.E.M. ((though I’m mostly interested in their 80s stuff, the material in that decade is so strong)) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just listened to Green today for the first time probably in years, and everything that didn't click before clicked. Also where should one start with Bob Marley? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s because 70s Tull > 80s R.E.M. There’s no room for ties! Sorry R.E.M. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quoted my own post regarding R.E.M just now. They’d be my #6. As for Bob Marley & The Wailers, I recommend you start with a nice, thick blunt and a tasty Cuban sandwich j/k Seriously, and ironically, I’d start with Exodus. That or Catch a Fire. Not sure if they’re best to start with, I’m just saying they’re my two favorites. Can’t really go wrong what ever you start with though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mithrandir Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 (edited) I will list the 5 bands that have consistently brought me the most joy throughout my lifetime: RushLed ZeppelinBeatlesMary's DanishPat Benatar ( if you need a BAND then substitute Husker Du) Edited November 20, 2018 by Mithrandir 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 (edited) Four come to mind as very easy: Lacuna Coil (Karmacode)Nightwish (Endless Forms Most Beautiful)Paradise Lost (ouch...so many...probably...erm...Faith Divides Us, Death Unites Us)Rush (honestly weird this one...their eras are so distinct my favourite depends on what era I enjoy the most. Lately it has been for a good year Vapor Trails). A fifth? Oh gosh...not so easy. Right now? Erm... He's dropped a little but Bruce Springsteen is the most likely authentic and correct choice to round off my top five. So: Bruce Springsteen (probably Born To Run or The River) Edited November 20, 2018 by Segue Myles 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the time it took me to type this his top 5 changed 12 times. My top three is easy. I feel safe in saying Rush is easily the fourth by this point (after seven years...they remain one of the most relevant and important bands in my life). Fifth...I cannot deny Bruce Springsteen. But the top three is set in stone. Four and five are the only two I can think of that I cannot dispute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 David Bowie (favorite album The Rise And Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars) This is not a band, this is a artist :P ;) This. I hesitate to put Springsteen as fifth because I see him as a solo artist (as the E Street Band are not a consistent presence throughout his entire discography). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that they are no longer KISS in my book :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
