Posted August 21, 201311 yr Well, it's been pretty quiet in here of late so in the interests of drumming up activity I thought it might be worth trying out a rate of some kind. Individual bands may not garner that much interest but what about the greatest tracks of all time? The premise is simple - each poster may nominate up to 40 tracks in no particular order. These will then be whittled down to what will most likely be a top 50 (depending on number of responses/my whims) which will be rated as per the usual marks out of ten with a countdown to follow. Criteria is fairly loose. Obviously bands like Nirvana, Led Zeppelin etc but there may be room for some of the rockier Indie bands - I could allow for example the Manics, U2 or Arctic Monkeys later material but The Smiths and The Killers are more Indie than Rock despite the bands having a guitar oriented set up. Basically use a bit of common sense when nominating. I'll leave it open a while to allow for nominations and will post a deadline when sufficient numbers are in to make this workable. So have a think and get nominating. Post all nominations in this thread. Once a track is nominated it goes in the list so only one nomination is necessary per song. Feel free to use this thread for any discussions on the matter
August 22, 201311 yr I will do this when I get back from Leeds, it'll probably be incredibly predicable.
August 22, 201311 yr I promise to do this as best I can later, I will TRY to make it so my list isn't entirely female-fronted bands from the last 10 years but I'll work with what I have.
August 23, 201311 yr Amaranthe - Amaranthine Biffy Clyro - Living Is A Problem Because Everything Dies Evanescence - Bring Me To Life Evanescence - My Immortal Fall Out Boy - Thnks Fr Th Mmrs Fall Out Boy - This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race Foo Fighters - Learn To Fly Foo Fighters - Long Road To Ruin Green Day - Boulevard Of Broken Dreams Halestorm - I Miss The Misery Jimmy Eat World - The Middle Kasabian - Fire Linkin Park - In The End Linkin Park - Numb Linkin Park - What I've Done Meatloaf - Bat Out Of Hell Muse - Knights Of Cydonia Muse - Plug In Baby Muse - Uprising My Chemical Romance - Welcome To The Black Parade My Chemical Romance - I'm Not Okay (I Promise) Nightwish - Amaranth Nightwish - Wish I Had An Angel Nine Inch Nails - Hurt Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit Oasis - Don't Look Back In Anger Oasis - The Importance Of Being Idle Paramore - Misery Business Paramore - Crushcrushcrush Paramore - Ignorance Pink Floyd - Money Pink Floyd - Another Brick In The Wall Pt. 2 The Pretty Reckless - Make Me Wanna Die Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody Toto - Africa Within Temptation - Memories 3 Doors Down - Kryptonite 3 Doors Down - Here Without You 30 Seconds To Mars - The Kill 30 Seconds To Mars - Kings And Queens Imposed on myself a max of 3 per band, I've tried to keep them rock/punk/emo/metal and avoid all the alt rock trappings as per first post but if you don't want any of these let me know and I'll find replacements.
August 23, 201311 yr Oh I'll definitely take part in this. I'm not a fan of most 'mainstream' Rock/Metal groups these days because they're mostly awful, but I loved those genres when I was younger so my list will probably consist of late 90s to early 00s if that's OK.
August 23, 201311 yr Some of these lie very close to indie-rock but I've chosen bands that are either quite heavy/experimental/math - if Battles could count as rock then all of these should do too. I decided against anything by Foals. Adebisi Shank - Genki Shank Amaranthe - Amaranthine (Eurovision can be found in rock music okay) Alestorm - Captain Morgan's Revenge (NOT SORRY) Battles - Atlas B>E>A>K - Kehaar Blakfish - Your Hair's Straight But Your Boyfriend Ain't Brontide - Matador Converge - Dark Horse Dananananaykroyd - Make A Fist Dananananaykroyd - Pink Sabbath The Dillinger Escape Plan - Parasitic Twins Dream Theater - Pull Me Under Eluveitie - Omnos Enter Shikari - Sorry, You're Not A Winner (not sorry either!)

August 23, 201311 yr Amaranthe - Amaranthine (Eurovision can be found in rock music okay) *.* I wasn't gonna nominate it because my love for it has been so recent and obsessive but now someone else has, substituting out Cutt Off for that immediately.
