The Clash

- Their best song is London Calling

- Their best album is not London Calling, but it is The Clash (self-entitled album)

My second favourite would be either Van Halen or the Ramones.

What, no Led Zeppelin? Led Zeppelin is my favorite band, and Led Zeppelin IV is one of my favorites, if not number one. Stairway to Heaven is also one of the best songs ever.

Anybody else seen This is Spinal Tap? It is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. I rate it an 11.
This movie's score goes to 11 in my book, too.

No way, dude. London Calling hands down over The Clash. Clampdown, Lost in the Supermarket, Guns of Brixton, Train in Vain....every song's a highlight, it has like 20 of them, and touches on half the genres of popular music.

Breaking Benjamin
Song: Ahh, so many! I'd go with Breath or Polyamorous (Can't decide, sorry)
Album: We're Not Alone
I love Breaking Benjamin because they have released 3 fantasic albums so far. They are amazing live and the lead singer has an awesome voice.

My son would agree with you and is dying to see them live, although there seems no plans for them to come to the UK or even NYC, which would be easy for us to fly to.

When you say 'band' I'm presuming you mean a groups of artists that play their own instruments so for example, Eminem, Michael, Jackson or Madonna etc would not count.

Difficult to pick one band or evena track by them because it depends on my mood so I have, Radiohead, Muse, The beatles and The Smiths to choose from. ...And I'm going to be really boring and pick:

The Beatles

I'll follow the sun: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gh6NS2D0pW8

The Beatles: The white album

For the reasons: So many great and original tracks in only a 7 year carear, it intrigues me how many people who like me were born after they split, including young teens like their music 40+ years later.Without them the UK would probably not have the music tradition we are known for and..without them the bands you are naming above and below this post probably would not have existed.

-Dir en grey
-Favorite song: Zakuro
-Favorite album: MACABRE

I love Dir en grey because they have so many kind of songs, that go from soft or agressive ballads to hard rock, pop, heavy metal, experimental and progressive. Also, I love the amazing (and hard to understand lyrics) Kyo writes. He can tell so hard stories on his songs. It's amazing.

I have Phobia and We are not Alone is the first one worth the purchase? I loved the 2nd two. I was going to add BB as one of the only other groups I can put the Album in and let it play.


 

For me its: We're Not Alone Saturate Phobia Saturate, their debut album, has a lot of great songs you can rock out to. It's definitely better than Phobia.

hmm, might need to pick it up.

I liked Phobia better, but that is because my taste are a bit softer than some(thus U2 being my favorite group)

Metallica and Iron Maiden.
Metallica are loosing their touch though, I hope they get back on track with their next album. I'm one of those diehard fans who feel that The Black Album was the beginning of the end. It was the beginning of their commercial success worldwide but the end of their integrity and real sound.
"And Justice for All" FTW!!
And Iron Maiden; you just have to appreciate 50 years old's who make music as if it was late 70's or early 80's yet!
