Hard Rock???

[caveman]

Hi Guys,

I have been out of the music loop for a little while and I was hoping to write a list of the bands I like and if you guys could name some bands of today that I might like. Here is my list of bands:

Kiss, Winger, Heavens Edge, Damn Yankees, Kansas, Blind Guardian, Dream Theater, Manowar.

Thanks guys.

This coming from a guy who calls himself 'caveman'...

 

[FIGJAM]

Haha...Winger!

I have the embarrassing honour of owning a late 80's Reb Beach Ibanez!!

I have never even heard the band, but it was (at the time) the coolest guitar in the shop and me folks shelled out for it.

I apologise for coming on here and asking a genuine question. I should have known better!

Music these days suck. Just keep listening to your old stuff and avoid the rubbish that is being made lately.

KISS <> hard rock.

 

[Darky]

Stick with those caveman. Not many good ones in today's crop, I tend to distance myself a bit too. Edguy are very good in the Helloween vein, Black Majesty are a great Melbourne band about to put out their second album, and if you like Blind Guardian & MANOWAR, you'll almost certainly like Hammerfall.


Maybe if you're short on ideas, find out what side projects and other bands your current favourite musicians have done, and work from there... (eg - David SHankle from MANOWAR formed his own band DSG, and the debut CD kicks anus).

Godsmack....awesome band

Depends what you mean by "hard rock". Granted, their isn't a great deal out there, but try a few of these bands out for size:


Mastodon, Trivium, Killswitch Engage and Machine Head. Heavy stuff be very accessible.

And on the subject of Dream Theater, their new album is out pretty soon from memory. Looking forward to that one!

I remember most of those bands.

Manowar = Major suckfest
LMAO@ Loincloth Metal

Hard rock has changed immensely.
Nowdays they sing about issues they think are signs of the times but are more often than not just self indulgence and negativity personified.

A band that bears some resemblance to the music u speak of may be Nicleback but your best bet is to re-order those CDs,shut the door and turn it up.!!!!!!!

Rock out.

I've been on the HR trail for a very long time and have a mixed collection selection of CD's that I made from the 80's predominately. Doesn't hurt to expand on this list but try the classic 70's stuff and I agree with Darky, don't care for much stuff of 90's onwards crop. Why isn't Led Zep on your list ? And AC / DC ?? What about Ozzy Osbourne / Black Sabbath ?? Love / Hate (Blackout In the Red room) is another you gotta check out.
