[RushBoingo]

Well, luckily I found my fifth favorite artist recently (so the final choice would not be something casual) (keeping in mind that I am young and have not had as many years to hear new music as some other members).

1. Rush

2. Oingo Boingo

3. Owl City

4. They Might Be Giants

5. Daft Punk

I should make the note that numbers two through five are always constantly changing depending on my mood (occasionally for brief moments (gasp) Rush goes down a step too! (but not for long). I simply listed Rush first (because it’s %99.9 percent of the time true) and from there listed the groups in the order I discovered them.

[Cygnus 2112]

1. Rush

2. Metallica

3. AC/DC

4. Volbeat

5. Lamb Of God

[Segue Myles]

Fairly easy:

 

Lacuna Coil

Rush

Miles Davis

Khoma

Bruce Springsteen

 

Jimmy Eat World, Toto and The Beatles could easily sit in that top five as well!

5. Shinedown

Not surprising you don't know these groups. Though 2 and 4 have had their music appear many times in the media, and 3 and 5 have both had hits on the top 40, they are all very far and away from the stuff that most users on the forum listen to. Although I have found traces of either fandom or at least respect for all five somewhere on here, these instances are far and few between.

Me too and surprisingly it doesn't bother me. I grew up with the men who paved the way for those who make the music of today. What more could I want?
